The best professional service I've ever recieved when buying and selling. Talked us through each step of the way with ease, very understanding through service from Elizabeth and a pleasure dealing with the team in the office. When ringing for quotes they actually wanted to help thank you. Mrs moyes
Elizabeth Kinney dealt with house sale and purchase in an exemplary manner I would highly recommend her services and the quote we had was the lowest,a truly lovely lady who always made time for us.
My experience with Paul Richard Tapsell barrister of Beckets Chambers Canterbury Innovation Centre University Road Canterbury and solicitor Simon Levack of Ratcliffes Solicitors 22 Park Road Sittingbourne
I found them to be devious and manipulating, they failed to do their job or report in 2015 the Local Planning Authority for their unlawful acts
They failed to challenge the Planning Inspector Tim Belcher at the Public Inquiry regarding his unlawful acts
Ratcliffes solicitors were instructed to get a barrister of Queens Counsel level to defend. Simon Levack said he knew of a barrister of 20 years standing and an expert in planning law ( Mr Paul Tapsell a friend of his from childhood).
I have found out that Paul Tapsell is a jobbing barrister with no expertise in any field.
Simon Levack and Paul Tapsell were party to deceiving her ladyship Whipple at the application for the appeal 13 9 18
Likewise Giles Atkinson for The Local Planning Authority of 6 Pump Court Temple London EC4 Y7AR was fully aware when he presented the papers before Her Honour they contained forged documents etc..
Because of Paul Tapsell s conduct at the Inquiry I made enquiries and found he had been working for Canterbury City Council in planning for approximately 20 years at the same time running my case.
When I told Simon Levack what I had found out he said he had told me this before he took the case on,
this never happend, I found out by the Freedom Of Information from Canterbury City Council. I would never have had Paul Tapsell work for me had I been told
I found them both to be failures, I rate them the lowest end of their profession, and should be struck off for bringing
Used Ratcliffes for our house sale and purchase earlier this year. Always able to speak to the solicitor when necessary, kept us updated on the big things without inundating us with paperwork. A fair bit cheaper than other local solicitors. Would recommend.
Used this solicitor for a house purchase in 2015 and they were excellent. Did everything that was asked, followed up when requested and always able to get through and speak to the actual solicitor rather than administration assistant! She was excellent and would not hesitate in recommending them for any house sale or purchase.
I used Ratcliffes to do our Wills as they had been on the 'other side' of transactions and were always professional and gracious. I am so pleased that I did. Emily King was very professional, friendly and guided us both so that our all wishes were met. Highly recommended.
My probate case was handled by Richard Ratcliffe who is expensive and incompetent. He charged far more than he said he would, important points were missed and his letters even contained basic spelling mistakes.
Used for conveyancing - very professional service received from Elizabeth Kinney. Would have no hesitation in recommending.
