Porter Dodson Solicitors & Advisors Avis 

Very pleased with the service received in the conveyancing of our family home. Bethany and team steered us through the many challenges with reassuring advice and a prompt response to our enquiries.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or use this firm again

We are a small charity and the fast and efficient resolution of a contentious estate by Chris led to the release of the bequest within one day. Highly recommended.

Zara and her team did an excellent job of carrying out the conveyancing of our small cottage and were always available when we needed them.

Fantastic service from Zara and her team, everything handled so professionally and very quickly. Would highly recommend.

Louise was brilliant whilst acting on our company purchase of a residential property. Throughout the purchase process Louise was patient, communicated with all parties promptly and did all that she could to progress matters for us. We would highly recommend Louise for conveyancing .

I recently sold my house and had the pleasure of working with Reena from Porter Dobson. From start to finish, the process was handled with professionalism, efficiency, and clear communication. Reena did a great job in assisting me with all the bits I didn’t understand and really helped me through each stage of the sale. I cannot recommend her and Porter Dobson enough. Thank you.

Customer.
We found Porter Dodson’s (Sherborne based) services for setting up LPA’s and property law to be excellent. Both Beckie Old and Tom Mottram were prompt, professional and courteous and took the time to explain the processes involved. We will definitely use this firm again!

Zara Davies recently helped us with the purchase of our first home, and we couldn't be happier with the service we received from her and from the entire Yeovil Residential Property team. As first-time buyers the process seemed daunting, but the team made everything straightforward and stress-free from start to finish. Communication was clear and prompt throughout and any questions we had were always answered in a friendly manner; nothing ever felt like too much trouble and we felt completely supported throughout the entire journey.

We used Porter Dodson for our house purchase. We had used another firm for our sale which turned out to be a nightmare. As with most things in life, you get what you pay for. The team at P-D were always quick to respond to any correspondence and were on the ball every step of the way. Highly recommended. They were a little more expensive than others but the lesson we learnt was don’t cheap out on the most stressful thing you might ever do, it’s not worth it. Worth every penny. We are now using their services for other legal affairs.

Whenever we dropped in we felt welcomed and at ease in the Bridport office. Reena Raval herself was efficient and very clear in her explanations as she guided us through a process that had changed considerably since we last sold a house nearly thirty years ago. Throughout we were confident that we were in excellent hands, both in the conveyancing and in drawing up what was quite a complicated post-sale tenancy agreement. We felt that our interests were being meticulously protected and the process was completed speedily with the minimum of stress. We chose Reena because she had been warmly recommended by several of our friends, and now we too would unhesitatingly recommend both her and her team.

Sarah Stone of Porter Dodson came to do our Will and Power of Attorney in person saving us a journey to her office. We found her very thorough and made us feel at ease. It did not take not long before Sarah returned for us to sign the Will. Now we're pleased that we have possession of both our Wills and Powers of Attorney. We highly recommend her for those wanting to do Wills or Powers of Attorney.

A huge thank you to Michelle Wilson and Sonya Bailey, who were able to assist us on an auction property purchase that our normal solicitors couldn't assist with.

Not only were they both extremely professional, but the communication was truly phenomenal and we were able to exchange and complete on the deal in under 14 working days.

I couldn't recommend Michelle, Sonya and the team enough and look forward to many future deals together.

Robyn Greenway was the Solicitor in charge of my business, and from the very beginning she was reliable, always answered queries and replied to emails quickly, answering the often complex questions we put to her; she was patient and honest; she gave superb advice and was just an all around superstar. I'd also like to give kudos to her assistant Lisa, and Jenny and Emma (Conveyancing team) for also doing sterling work on what was a very awkward situation. I could not recommend Porter Dodson highly enough, especially Robyn Greenway.

Catherine Snook looked after the purchase of some land for us. She was an absolute delight to deal with, very knowledgeable and extremely efficient and cost effective. She was able to explain the process in simple terms that we could understand and she did all of the above with a great attitude and sense of humor. I would not hesitate to recommend Catherine and Porter Dodson to others. We will certainly be using them again if the need arises.

I found Reena very communicative and professional throughout the house sell

I have used Michelle and Sonya at the Dorchester branch for several sales and purchases and they have always been thorough and reliable in their dealings. They have provided helpful advice and kept the pressure on other solicitors to ensure that the conveyances have proceeded as quickly and efficiently as possible

Called for a simple eviction notice. All dealt with promptly until I received an email saying 'The notice will be posted on X date.' The notice was not posted. I waited a week and then followed this up. By calling to ask where the notice was cost me an extra 13%. Charging this extra because you could not do what you said you would do it not good enough.

I queried this bill and was told 1 month 9 days later. That this was 'in line with the works carried out.' I was told that if I wished to escalate I could do so. It would be foolish to take a law firm to the small claims court.

Go somewhere else and hope that they will do what they say they will do. Charging me for following up their lack of care and then standing by it may well not be illegal but it is certainly unethical.

Used Porter Dodson for our house sale. Zara and the team in Yeovil have been excellent! Kept us up to date with all aspects of the sale, responded and answered any queries promptly either by phone or email. Reception team also really friendly and helpful. No hesitation in recommending Porter Dodson for conveyancing.

Very thorough, good advice, communication excellent. I should come clean and say I have used them before and will again. Highly recommended.

The service I received from both Reena & Amy (Porter Dodson,Bridport) during my recent house buying process was professional & efficient & both were approachable & responsive

They promptly & fully addressed & answered any questions,queries or concerns I had along the way
Both made what can be a difficult & stressful process just not!

Would not hesitate to recommend
