Client testimonials:
"Matthew and colleagues, you gave me your time when I needed it most and that is the most precious gift of all. Amazing, thank you so much."
"What can l say apart from 5* star service from both Matthew Field and Kelly Stillman (PA). This has been a very complicated situation since my fathers passing last year involving POA, wills and monies from my dads sale of his property etc. We certainly couldn’t have achieved what we have so quickly without their help. Thank you both so much and l would without doubt recommend SMR Solicitors to anybody either locally or looking for a top solicitor on the South Coast."
"The service was great and I was kept informed at every stage of the proceedings. I would highly recommend the whole team who are professional and friendly."
"My brother and I were introduced to Matthew Field through a family member following the death of my father. Matthew and his team handled the estate and I was happy with their expertise and diligence (especially in the face of some downright evasive companies!)."
