I have recently moved to Timms

I have recently moved to Timms, Derby having been very unhappy with my previous solicitor.
I needed to update my will and Sarah and Izzy have done an excellent job. They are both pleasant and friendly and , of course, more importantly very efficient. Thank you Timms.

5 Stars does not seem enough

From the moment we contacted them to renew our Wills to coming into see them, they were patient, kind, professional and took the stress out of having to rewrite our wills at this sad time. Melanie Wain was wonderful and explained everything clearly and simply and we cannot thank her enough. We would recommend Timms to family and friends (anybody) without a shadow of a doubt.

Timms Solicitors in…

I recently used Timms Solicitors in Swadlincote to handle a complex and emotionally challenging set of legal matters, including a Power of Attorney, the execution of a Will, and the sale of a property. From start to finish, the team at Timms treated me like family, going above and beyond to make everything as straightforward as possible during what was a very difficult time. Keith, Jackie, and Lisa were not only extremely professional but also deeply empathetic, showing genuine care for my circumstances. They guided me with patience and understanding, which helped ease my worries. I can’t thank them enough for their support, and I highly recommend Timms to anyone needing a reliable family solicitor. Thank you so much to the whole team — especially Keith, Jackie, and Lisa — for everything. xxx"

I highly recommend Melissa Knight

Navigating family court is deeply challenging. Having a solicitor like Melissa Knight by your side is invaluable. As an interpreter who has worked with Melissa, I can attest to her outstanding expertise and dedication in family law.

Melissa combines legal acumen with a compassionate approach, ensuring her clients are well-represented and emotionally supported. She excels at making complex legal procedures understandable, enabling effective client engagement. Melissa tirelessly explores every avenue to secure favourable outcomes, as demonstrated in her efforts to reunite a client with their child.

In a challenging case involving a foreign national with learning difficulties, Melissa's commitment to accessibility shone through. She ensured consistency in support by using the same intermediary, interpreter, and barrister, which provided stability and reassurance for her client.

Working alongside Melissa, I saw her genuine care for clients' wellbeing and her strategic and resilient approach. It was not only a professional pleasure but also a profound learning experience.

A1 Service

Really pleased with the service received from Michelle Rock and her assistant Morgan Dye whilst trying to buy a property.
Both Michelle and Morgan responded really quickly when I needed to contact them. Both are very approachable, professional and attentive.
Unfortunately the property purchase fell through but I would not hesitate in using Michelle and Morgan when we find another property.

Conveyancing

I was purchasing a house that I had been renting, with cash. This is fairly unusual and caused a little confusion. Generally everything went very smoothly, by phone and email, with only a couple of visits to the office. I was asked to confirm all relevant info, and not to deal with parts not relevant to my circumstances. The fee was average compared with other local solicitors.

Timms are the best.

A family member bought and sold a property earlier this year and it wasn't the best of experiences, so we did a lot of research and spoke to a lot of people before choosing a firm to help us buy a property.
We used Timms Burton who managed the whole process in a professional and timely manner. Katie explained everything fully and in plain English, keeping us up to date on where we were with the sale. Highly recommend.
