Sittingbourne Family And Property Solicitors
A personal service, from experts — locally
Let’s face it: visiting a solicitor is not something you would normally choose to do. Legal advice is usually sought by individuals when something goes wrong or when the legalities of buying or selling a house need to be seen to. At Ratcliffes Solicitors in Sittingbourne, Kent, we completely understand this and we approach things a little differently than other lawyers.
We have trained and worked at some of the best law firms in the country. This doesn’t make us stuffy or aloof — it gives us the confidence to advise the local people we work for with clarity and certainty.
We’ll treat you as an individual. When you come to see us about a matter that is causing you personal concern and anxiety, you will be met and advised by a highly qualified professional, not a junior lawyer or trainee.
