Report
I used the Stocktonheath solicitors regarding a probate matter. Even though the staff are friendly I am sorry to say that the quality of service was unprofessional, lots of mistakes in the paperwork that I had to point out on quite a number of occasions. For the amount paid for their service i really was extremely disappointed and expected more from a company of their stature. I definitely would not recommend Steels Solicitors.
