Abbey Freeman Reviews

October 8, 2026
This is the second time we have had Abbey as our solicitor for moving house, and once again, she has been fantastic. She is incredibly knowledgeable and reliable. She gave us complete confidence and reassurance at every stage, knowing that everything was being handled professionally. Throughout the process, Abbey was always contactable and efficient with all of our queries. What we really appreciated was how well she explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Abbey to anyone looking for a solicitor. She has been brilliant both times we have used her, and we are extremely grateful for all her help and support throughout our move. Thank you Abbey!

I recently used Abbey as my solicitor when selling my property, with the assistance of Luisa. They were both extremely efficient, helpful and professional throughout the whole process. They kept everything moving smoothly and were always happy to help whenever I had any questions. I’m really pleased with the service I received and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a solicitor.

Fantastic service from both Abbey and Louisa. They were extremely responsive, helpful and supportive throughout the entire process. Everything moved quickly, and they did everything they could to keep things progressing as quickly as possible. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough and will definitely be returning to them for anything I need in the future.

Abbey was recommended by estate agents in Loughborough and I am so pleased I took the recommendation! I cannot fault her or Luisa, from response times to proactively keeping us up to date at every stage of purchasing our house. They made what could have (and has been previously) a very stressful process a smooth one without the hassle of having to chase for updates. I cannot recommend Rothera Bray, Loughborough enough.

We recently sold and purchased a property and retained Rothera Bray to assist and advise with the process. We found the experience with Rothera Bray to be excellent; they were helpful, professional and provided regular updates on both transactions throughout.Our Solicitor, Abbey Freeman, was fantastic and added significant value with her advice, support and diligence. I would highly recommend Rothera Bray as a firm and Abbey in particular. Abbey and the broader team there made what can be a stressful process less so.

We would give your service a full 5 stars without hesitation. The communication from start to finish was second to none—you kept us informed at every single stage, answered our questions promptly, and made what could have been a stressful process feel entirely seamless and straightforward. We are incredibly grateful for all your hard work, thoroughness, and dedication to getting our purchase across the finish line. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rothera Bray (and specifically you!) to any family or friends looking for legal support.

We really can’t thank Abbey and Luisa enough for everything they did throughout our sale.Having previously had a very disappointing experience with a solicitor who was difficult to engage with and rarely communicated, we were naturally a little apprehensive. Thankfully, from our very first contact, Abbey and Luisa completely restored our faith in the process.One thing that really stood out from the very beginning was that they explained they would only take on our case if they had the capacity to give it the time and attention it deserved. That immediately gave us confidence that we wouldn’t just become another file in a large caseload, and it set the tone for the outstanding service we received throughout. It showed a genuine commitment to looking after their clients rather than taking on more work than they could realistically manage.Their communication was exceptional from start to finish. They kept us informed every step of the way with regular updates, explained everything in a clear and straightforward manner, and were always happy to answer any questions we had. We never once felt like we were chasing for information or left wondering what was happening.What really set them apart, though, was the genuine care and compassion they showed. Buying and selling a home is one of the biggest and most emotional events in life, and Abbey and Luisa never lost sight of that. They treated us as people, not just another file, and their kindness, reassurance and understanding made such a difference during what is a very stressful time.Their professionalism, dedication and personal approach were incredible and we genuinely felt supported from beginning to end.Thank you both for all your hard work, patience and support. We will be recommending Abbey and Luisa to anyone looking for a solicitor without hesitation.Jake and Lauren

Abbey and Luisa’s professionalism and attentiveness was exceptional from the get-go. Being first time buyers, my husband and I were nervous and unsure when beginning the house buying process, but we were supported all the way through to completion. With Abbey and Luisa’s guidance and care, we felt informed every step of the way. The transparency, communication, and compassion was fantastic and we are both extremely happy with the service provided. We are so thankful for the time and attention taken to ensure we got the keys to our first home and would thoroughly recommend Rothera Bray to everybody.

We purchased a property with the help an Abbey and Luisa from the Conveyancing Team, and could not be happier with the service received. They were responsive and readily available to speak to when it was required. Best of all, apart from initial ID checks, this Solicitors does not use impersonal, frustrating portals! We would highly recommend and will be using for any needs in the future! Thank you
