Excellent experience
All the team were incredibly responsive, friendly and helpful. During a stressful time they were always on hand to reply and worked hard to help us through our sale and purchase.

Selling my Childhood Home
Losing a parent is never easy, loosing both within a short time of each other can be paralysing. Selling my childhood home could have been a long drawn out process, however the solicitors I spoke and emailed with helped make it so much easier. They jumped through hoops we weren't expecting asking for as little as possible from a grieving family but treating us with respect and dignity when paperwork was required. I would highly recommend them to friends and family as I found them to be both professional and compassionate.

Excellent service - sale of property
I dealt with Rachael - trainee solicitor and Tracy - legal assistant. Both were excellent. Responded immediately to any of my queries and kept me up to date with the process. Everything dealt with in a timely manner. Very friendly and helpful but also professional.
