I used Battens for a house sale. Communication with Emily and Emma was always quick and efficient and the sale went through quickly with no major issues. I will definitely be using them again.

Emma Taylor and Emily Crossman were a pleasure to deal with and helped me through every stage of my house purchase. There were no delays and completion happened as planned.

Sally Manning at Battens is an absolute star. She was the one that kept her head while others were losing theirs, with her, her conveyancing team and Naomi resolving a complex situation between legal firms for a house sale involving transfer of ownership for a deceased relative.
I cannot recommend her highly enough - she deals with wills, trusts, probate and estate legal administration, and I would offer her and her office more business at any opportunity I'm given, without hesitation.
Thank you Sally & Battens.

Sarah Ford provided an efficient and friendly service, handling the conveyancing of my late father's house sale. In her absence, she was very ably assisted by Daniel Brown.
Mo, Its the 1st aniversery of our move back to the midlands. The conveyencing work done by you last year was stellar. It was a very stressful time eased by your professional and committed approach.
Thanks very much indeeed.

We had the legal work for buying a property done by Mo Byers at Battens. We were pleased with her services, she was diligent, thorough, unearthed things that we would never have found and responded quickly and positively to our instructions.
Whilst I found them knowledgeable enough, they have double billed quite often. Including billing me for chasing them (which was credited when challenged), I also had to frequently chase several times to simply get a reply

I am so grateful for Lucy King’s efficient and meticulous work.

We recently instructed Emma Taylor and her assistant Emily Crossman to handle the conveyancing of our first time house purchase. We could not fault them or their service in any way.
Their approach was both professional and friendly, they worked with speed and efficiency, keeping us updated regularly and quickly addressed any queries and issues.
A process which we thought would be extremely stressful was handled with ease and experience. Both Emma and Emily have been absolute stars, helping us to complete in record time and we couldn't recommend them highly enough.

I’ve used Battens of Castle Cary twice now to assist me with the purchase and sale of a property. The first time I used Lucy King she was so brilliant that I requested her a second time. Lucy is fantastic, and that doesn’t really even come close to describing the effort and dedication she put into our sale/purchase. I cannot recommend Battens highly enough, all the staff are kind and friendly. It’s a very stressful process and I trusted Lucy and she patiently guided me through the entire process. It is the sort of support you really want from a company and individual.

Had a claim that ended up lasting 5 years, Michelle was amazing very helpful and supportive keeping me up to date and chasing things on my behalf made what was a stressful situation manageable and got a positive outcome for myself. Would definitely use again and recommend to family and friends

Ross Siviter was recommended to me as a reliable solicitor. From first contact until completion of an unexpected protracted sale he was the epitome of a perfect professional. Prompt replies to messages, courteous and patient on the telephone and calm in adversity. He gave excellent advice and was always right! His assistant was an impressive professional and charming.Top class service and highly recommended.

Tina Tippett. She’s been absolutely brilliant. So approachable and supportive, very organised and responsive. We would simply recommend her to everyone. She’s made all the difference to our house sale/ purchase. Thank you also to Cathy you have been most efficient and professional.

Due to complete on our first property very soon and was appointed Emma Taylor at Battens, Yeovil. From start to finish I have had all questions answered very quickly and both Emma and Emily have kept me informed the entire way through. Haven’t had to chase anything at all, thank you for making the process so easy for us!

Excellent service. Mo was brilliant. Couldn’t have wishes for anyone better.
She made a stressful time easier.

Brian handled a share sale on my behalf and he was extremely efficient and professional. Nothing is too much trouble and he was also very patient with me asking every little question. Communication was great as Brian always responsed to all emails and calls in a timely manner, even when its out of office hours. Highly recommended.

Awful and very rude lady at the finance department, pure management. Will definitely never use it again.
