Aletta Shaw Solicitors are excellent. They were responsive, professional and incredibly helpful, providing information sheets so I could understand the legal technicalities and they were incredibly local which made it really easy to get to the office. They kept me updated throughout. Can't recommend them enough!

I instructed Aletta Shaw for their end to end house sale and purchase service. Simon heads up their new Estate Agency arm. My property was advertised on all the usual platforms and sold in just 9 days. Simon and his team provide a traditional estate agency service for a fraction of the usual %!Then it was onto the in house conveyancing with Sue and James which was very thorough, informative and responsive. Packaging all of these services together saved both time and money. Highly recommended indeed - Thank you v much.

I was helped throughout my divorce process by Aletta Shaw. From start to end they listened to my needs, provided me with options available to me to help me make my own decisions and were clear and concise with their communication at all times. I would highly recommend.

I have never had any cause to commission any solicitor in times past except for property transactions, so I had a great fear and reluctance to commission a solicitor for my divorce but had no choice.After investigating numerous law firms, I decided to go with 'Aletta Shaw'. I was very apprehensive and felt alone at first due to the stress of divorce knowing what journey I was about to embark on.My first appointment with Aletta Shaw was with Galbraith Gorman who made me feel very comfortable and explained the reality of the situation...to cut a long story very short, he advised me all the way and was always at the end of a phone call, he also explained the fees and kept it low by sending me regular invoices which was manageable. I found Galbraith professional who was also very in touch with my reality, empathetic and caring.I would highly recommend Aletta Shaw to represent anyone in need of their services.Thumbs up to Galbraith.

I would strongly recommend Aletta Shaw to anyone seeking an excellent and knowledgeable service for whatever their legal needs are. In my case I have primarily dealt with Rachel Duke and her team and cannot fault the service provided, attention to detail, dedication and support through what can obviously be difficult circumstances for the people involved in the cases. Great work!

I would highly recommend Aletta Shaw to anyone. My case was handled professionally and with care as if I was a person and not a means to money. My Solicitor did her best to make a terrible situation better by trying to make a long drawn out case as short as possible yet not allowing the other party to take advantage. If you are in need of a Solicitor look no further, you won't find better.

I met Rachel Duke for the first time this week during her Free Advice week. I was accompanying an older family member who is in a very challenging and complex situation. Rachel grasped the nuances very swiftly and supportively. She guided us through the options available so that it felt easy to see the way forward. She was generous with her time even though we are evidently unlikely to become a big fee generating client, and in fact was brilliantly resourceful and informative about ways to save money through the process. Her interpersonal skills are outstanding and we all left with a strong sense of trust in her advice.

Our price promise

We are open and clear about our costs and will ensure that they are kept to a minimum. We do this by:

giving you regular updates in advance of incurring costs
agreeing payment plans with you
invoicing every month so you can budget
offering a facility for card payment.

How can you keep your costs down?

We charge for the work we do according to the length of time we spend on your matter.

Frequent, lengthy and unnecessary telephone calls or meetings with your solicitor will result in further costs to you. The clearer instructions are, the quicker we can prepare applications and statements, and the less we will charge.

It is best to make a list of everything you need our solicitors to know, before you make a telephone call or come for a consultation.
