After so many years I have only warmth for your firm in dealing with this old codger -and especially your good self and Jack! Your whole package and advice is exemplary and I would not hesitate to recommend Rothera Bray services.

I chose to instruct Eleanor Robinson at Rothera Bray because a friend of mine of 50 years standing had recommended her. She and her colleague Kerry from the Mapperley branch of Rothera Bray dealt with us in an efficient and timely manner and wrapped everything up calmly and without incident. I can't praise them highly enough. The solicitor practice we used in the past have moved on to corporate law, but I feel very reassured that Rothera Bray will be there in the future when I need the services of a solicitors' practice.

Rothera Bray have provided a professional service at all times dealing with numerous issues promptly and clearly. Rothera Bray have assisted me in dealing with two deceased estates, distribution of funds to beneficiaries and a property transfer all within a timely manner and costing clearly defined, no unexpected expenses or unforeseen issues. I would highly recommend Rothera Bray, as they are professional, efficient, with clear fees and advice, while being very personable and approachable.

Eleanor Robinson at Rothera Bray helped me to turn around a probate application really quickly after my father passed away. She was friendly, clear, quick to answer emails and extremely efficient - taking the stress out of the process during a difficult time.
