Jen Haynor has done an excellent job in acting for us during a recent property purchase. She was professional, extremely efficient and pro-active; able to anticipate where they may be problems. My brother and I were acting on behalf of my uncle and Jen was fantastic at communicating with us but also involving my uncle when needed. Would highly recommend both Jen and Battens.

We’ve recently bought our first home. Throughout the process Jen was great, and really dealt with everything for us, and helped us understand it all. The whole process was very professional and went smoothly. Highly recommended Jen and Battens. Thank you for all your help.

We have just sold our house and the conveyancing team at the Sherborne office were amazing. Sam, Natalie and Bonnie were all so professional and pleasant to deal with. The whole process went so smoothly and in just a few weeks it was all done. Thank you all for your amazing support with this.

I recently sold my house and was appointed Jen at Battens, Yeovil. From start to finish the service was professional and efficient yet friendly and approachable. All correspondence was quickly dealt with and I was kept informed at all stages along the way.

I have called this morning and spoke to Jacqui who could tell that I needed some help. She has been so kind to offer some guidance and I am very grateful for that. Would certainly recommend her firm.

We have been using Battens since 2019 after my brother died, Deborah Escott-Watson managed to sort his complicated affairs in a way that reduced stress in a stressful time.
Since then Oliver Thorp and Jen Haynor have helped with a property sale. All went smoothly.

Lucy Horsington picked up the pieces in the administration of my late Mother's Estate after the person who had been dealing with it left Battens. Despite episodes of incompetence by HMRC, she and her colleagues got the Estate over the line. Lucy was thoroughly professional, responsive and great to deal with.

Battens undertook the conveyancing work when I sold my house recently. Jen Haynor and Anne Kendall made everything run smoothly for me, responding quickly and efficiently throughout the process. Where I needed to respond to queries from the buyers Jen gave me comprehensive advice at each stage. I was very pleased with the friendly and helpful service provided.

Tina Tippett in the Yeovil office acted for me in my recent purchase. Tina was very efficient and any queries I had were answered quickly. I found Tina very approachable and absolutely brilliant. I would have no hesitation in recommending Tina and her team. Thank you for making my purchase seamless and stressless.

The conveyance team slightly lost the personal touch.

Mo Byers is the best solicitor I have ever dealt with, she is so responsive and provides a FAB service.

Battens and more especially Naomi have been looking after my elderly parents and their affairs for many years. The service provided is outstanding. Both very professional and efficient with the added bonus of caring about their clients. I would highly recommend Battens and continue to trust them fully!

Battens Dorchester accepted instruction to act in my purchase of a property. Two weeks later they decided that as it was a second floor apartment in a two storey building they would not act. Wasted time all round, no apology. Proceeding fine with new solicitor

Had great advice from Iain on how to deal with a construction company & a new build defect which resulted in an agreable settlement.
Jen Haynor was brilliant as our solicitor during a recent house purchase. She was responsive and considerate with her advice and always willing to put it into plain English. We had some demanding deadlines which didn't phase her, and I would highly recommend Battens and Jen.
The team at Battens were incredible. So friendly, helpful and super efficient. We used them for a house move and cannot rate them highly enough, we had a stressful move but they had it in hand at every stage. Thank you!

We really can’t recommend Battens enough!! For over 5 years Kate helped us through a really difficult time in so many ways and did so much for us. We were kept informed every step of the way, and everything was taken care of professionally, promptly, precisely and with care! Thank you so much for everything! 😊

We had to take Battens to the ombudsman for mis handling the will of a family member. We won and they had to pay compensation. They don't apolagise, despite being proven to be wrong. Never use this company, they made a very difficult situation very much worse.
