Emma Leighton-Carey

CILEx Lawyer & Licensed Conveyancer

Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

I am a dual-qualified lawyer specialising in residential conveyancing. I qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive in 2020 and a Licensed Conveyancer in 2023, and have over 13 years’ experience in dealing with a variety residential conveyancing transactions. I have worked in Bristol and South Gloucestershire for my whole career, and still work remotely in Bristol as a self-employed Consultant. Since 2017 I have specialised in acting for clients purchasing new build homes directly from Developers. As well as new build conveyancing, I deal with the purchase of older properties, the sale of property, re-mortgages, Help to Buy loan redemptions, and Forces Help to Buy. I deal with clients across the country, they do not need to be based in Bristol. I pride myself on my quick response times to assist my clients in meeting their exchange deadlines. I believe that clients should be regularly updated - and as I am a Consultant, clients will deal with me personally, rather than being passed to an unqualified team or admin staff. I support my clients personally from start to finish. If you think I can assist you in any way, please do not hesitate to get in touch for a free, no obligation, estimate of fees.

Property sale/purchase - fantastic!

Emma (Leighton-Carey) has been absolutely fantastic, she handled both the sale and purchase of our properties and made everything so easy and straightforward. We were introduced to Emma through our new build building company, knowing that new builds require more work than your standard conveyancing work, Emma was available, responsive and attentive throughout the process, any questions big or small she was able to guide us through, and it never got ‘stressful’ - we didn’t ever have to chase, in fact I think Emma chased us a few times! An absolute pleasure to work with, and couldn’t record more. Thanks so much Emma.

Excellent service from Emma Leighton-Carey at Taylor Rose

Emma carried out the conveyancing for the sale of our late mother's property and supported us throughout to completion. She is very professional and friendly and always kept us updated to make it a seamless stress free process. Everything was explained clearly and we particularly liked that we could contact her directly by phone or email (if needed) and knew that she would respond quickly. Thanks Emma!

Painless conveyancing

Emma undertook the legal work connected to the sale of our parents’ house. She kept us up to date and informed and was extremely helpful throughout. Responses to questions were very prompt and, overall, Emma was on top of everything. Can’t recommend her highly enough.

Fantastic from start to finish

This has easily been the smoothest house purchase I have ever done. Emma has been extremely professional, providing timely updates and check-in whilst taking the time to explain matters clearly and answer all my questions. The sale and purchase sailed through, with even our estate agent commenting on how fast Emma was able to process her tasks. Even when Emma was away from work, she communicated this to us and had her very able colleague Amber cover her work while she was away. Couldn't;t recommend enough, thanks Emma!
