We highly recommend Mo Byers at the Wareham office of Battens after working with her for our conveyancing needs. Mo's professionalism, ability, sound advice and no nonsense approach have been invaluable. We would have no hesitation in recommending her. 1st class service - thanks Mo

I would highly recommend Battens. My main contacts have been with Peter Livingstone and Cate Barnes over different issues. I really felt they went above and beyond to help and they kept me fully informed throughout. They were both professional and efficient in obtaining the positive outcomes they did and I felt very supported along the way.

I've worked with Nicola and Clare from Battens on now two property transactions in Sherborne, they have been supremely professional throughout, keeping me informed and advising well at every stage in the process. Highly recommend.

Used Battens to re-possess my property. Long process but always felt progress was being made along the way. The successful conclusion was a great weight off my mind.

I am currently being represented by Gareth Bishop from Battens solicitors. He is very efficient and a good solicitor, I highly recommend him and Battens in Dorchester.

We trusted Claire Colborne to sell our old Portland windmill not knowing this would take 18 months. During this time she showed very little interest in getting the paperwork finished. I would never use her again.

Our house move was not an easy one due to the incompetency of the solicitors of the house we purchased; however our solicitors Battens were extremely efficient and kept us informed throughout the process! Special thanks to Nicola Pugsley who has finally sorted out the problem with Land Registry for us. We are enormously grateful!

Mo Byers has been a brilliant support through our sale and 2 purchases. Always prompt and clear with all her advice. Would highly recommend.

I cannot fault battens solicitors in any way. From the outset I was met with professionalism, compassion and a sensitive approach to what was a delicate matter. A strong, genuine and consistent desire to provide help, guidance and support throughout and reach a conclusion that was positive and fair, whilst also ensuring that my thoughts and opinions were heard. I would highly recommend Battens and would not hesitate to use again in the future if required.

I have used the services of Batterns for my personal house purchases and business commercial property transactions. For both of these I have had the opportunity to work with different departments within Batterns and I can find no fault with any of the teams. They are all very knowledgeable especially with my first house purchase and then with the setup of my first business. They have supported me at every step and I am happy to recommend them and I have to many of my family and friends needing the services of a solicitor.

This was the 3rd time I have used Battens Solicitors, twice for buying more shares in my Shared Association property and once for doing my Will and I have found them very professionally at all times and kept me updated and answered all my questions when I had any and I most certainly would recommend them to anyone.

My Father was very pleased with the hard work undertaken on his behalf. Both he and I were kept well informed at all stages and received very polite, courteous service.

I had the worst experience with Batterns and would never use them again.
Made everything easy with their friendly and very professional service.

Excellent service provided by Battens. Made the process of selling our home after 34 years and purchasing our new home smooth, simple and easy to understand. What could have been a very stressful process was made easy. All costs were confirmed up front and they were very competitive on price. I would and have recommended to others.

I used battens to sort my divorce and subsequent conveyancing. The service was fantastic with a great level of communication throughout and I felt support the whole way through a difficult process. I would definitely recommend

My experience of Battens, Yeovil, Somerset.
Battens conduct has been one of errors, denials, and failure to make good. Their internal complaints procedure is a waste of time. With total disinterest by the director and failure of the complaints manager to investigate the complaint properly, merely continuing three years of denials and cover ups.
Batten’s initial error caused an escalation of ongoing litigation and costs which had to be completed by another firm of solicitors.
Only when sued for negligence have Battens admitted to errors that occurred from the start of proceedings. In my case it took seven years for full reimbursement of my costs to be repaid by Battens.
