Ros and Elle from the Dorchester branch were very professional but also approachable and kept me informed as to where we were in the land sale process at all times. The price charged for the work was very fair and was exactly what the initial estimate said it would be. Overall I am very impressed and happy with the service offered and the friendly approach to working with the team.

Sandy

I cannot speak highly enough about Harriet Matthew and her handling of a thorny Trust problem. Her incisive professionalism combined with her engaging empathy and astute sense of humour smoothed the path from diagnosis to cure in a way that I have not experienced before. She is a huge credit to Porter Dodson.

Tim

Everyone I spoke to at your office I found to be approachable and welcoming. Most importantly they were very good at explaining the legal needs in a way I could understand.
