Tees Law

Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

• ‘I would best describe Tees practise and operation as a thoroughly professional outfit in all aspects.’

• ‘Piers Woods' knowledge, expert advice and professionalism gives his clients 100% satisfaction that their advice given would classify the service obtained from them both as excellent.’

• ‘The practice covers a wide range of legal disciplines, which means they can cover most of the requirements of a business or private client. We have dealt with partners and their teams in the areas of coveyancing (residential and commercial), commercial law and litigation and have found the individuals helpful and collaborative and, generally, responsive.’

• ‘Tees Law have been one of the go to firms for commercial property transactions over the last few years, given their local knowledge and expertise in the field. The ability to have regular contact and updates with those working on the deal, allows us to progress matters in an orderly fashion and achieve the ultimate goals of our mutual clients. It is also important to us that those working on the files understand how we work in addition to standards that we expect, which have always been met.’

• ‘Alex Waples is a pleasure to work with. He has a keen eye for detail and explains matters in a comprehensive manner for all parties involved. Importantly, Alex takes a commercial view and holistic approach which allows for a smooth transaction. We really value the ability to speak directly with Alex in order to gauge a feel and also understand certain scenarios which is very much welcome.’

• ‘I have used Tees for various contractual works and commercial property management/advise. I've always had a very good service and outcome with the work we have done together.’

• ‘99% of my contact is with Alex Waples. He is always very quick to respond, very knowledgable, very professional and very approachable.’

• ‘The team are proactive, commercial, quick to respond and personable whilst getting to the crux of any matter succintly and offering great advice.’

• ‘The positive, can do proactive approach that they take on every transaction and the unfailing quality of the advice provided. Alex Waples and Jordan Cooper are fantastic to deal with and feel more like highly valued members of our business rather than third party professional advisers.’

• ‘Dealt with queries and problems immediately when trying to sell property, unlike the buyers solicitors, who in some cases didn’t reply for a couple of weeks or more. (Six weeks was the max.) definitely would not recommend them. It made me realise I was in very good hands with people I could trust and talk to, who got on with the job, as I was very new to all of this. Very approachable and nothing was too much trouble to explain & answer.’

• ‘Having only dealt with personal solicitors for wills & powers of attorney elsewhere, I wish I had gone to Tees before. Alexander Waples is an exceptional solicitor in his approach to dealing with me. I would fully recommend Alexander for the Legal 500 who is very professional.’

• ‘The team is very approachable and easy to contact. The team always responds to enquiries in a timely manner. When emailing an individual I will often cc another member of the team, it is common if the first member is not able to deal with the query a response will come from another member which speeds up how things are dealt with.’

• ‘The team members are good at responding, know our business and when appropriate visit the site to get a fuller understanding of the issues.’

• ‘I had no previous experience working with a solicitor. The solicitor at this practice who assisted me I felt really went above and beyond. I never felt like I was a nuisance to him. The process of securing the lease of my shop was very stressful, but Tees ensured that the process on their end was completed in a timely manner and any questions or queries were dealt with as soon as they arose. I would say liaising with their clients is a great strength. Tees also have a history of assisting with leases owned by Cambridge University - so the knowledge they had as a practice of my particular type of lease was beneficial over competitors.’

• ‘Jordan Cooper from Tees assisted me with my lease. I valued his friendly nature and his good customer service. He managed to always remain polite and courteous with me - whilst being able to be firm when needed with the Landlord's solicitors. He picked out many flaws in the contract put forward from the Landlord's solicitors, which really gave me trust in his knowledge and abilities. I would again like to praise the timely manner in which he completed any tasks given.’
