House sale Completion - Stress Free.

Giovanni and MHHP Team shows professionalism, attention to detail, and calm guidance made a potentially complex process feel smooth and well managed. I was particularly grateful for their patience in addressing questions and ensuring that every stage of the transaction was handled with care and clarity.

First-Class Service — Worth Every Penny

After a difficult property sale fell through with a different solicitor, I turned to MHHP Law, and the difference was night and day. They were absolutely brilliant from start to finish — incredibly responsive, proactive with regular updates, and consistently kept me in the loop without any prompting. One of the standout aspects was how they independently managed all communication with the management company, saving me a lot of stress. A particularly tricky enquiry came up during the process, and they navigated it with pragmatic advice and clear next steps, always maintaining a sense of calm professionalism. Yes, MHHP Law may be slightly more expensive than some other conveyancing firms, but in my view, it’s a clear case of “you get what you pay for" and I feel they are excellent value for money. Their service was efficient, thorough, and gave me complete peace of mind. I’ll continue to use them in future without hesitation — highly recommended.

Professional, friendly and efficient service.

We have just finally completed on a house sale following probate and would highly recommend both Ruth and Giovanni. As well as being very professional and knowledgeable, they were always quick to respond to any queries and willing to explain any complex issues that came up along the way. I felt confident that I was in good hands and wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again.

Great service from start to finish from Ruth Hayward and Giovanni Lanza at MHHP. They made the sale of my late father's flat very easy.

First class, professional and approachable

I originally contacted MHHP Law LLP after I had questions about inheritance tax following my mother’s death, especially because of the value of her house. While filling in the tax forms, I had phoned HM Revenue and Customs to ask if I was eligible for a reduction because of my late father’s allowance. I was told I was not because he had not left a will. But after I had continued and paid the tax it came to my attention how much difference that allowance would make. It was time for a second opinion. When I arranged a consultation with Ruth Haywood, although she said she would have to check some details, she thought that in principle I should be eligible. Hence, I commissioned her to approach the inheritance tax people for a ‘correction’ on my behalf. Over and above making the case to the tax people, Ruth asked me for extra documentation and looked up house price figures for the period when my father died in order to craft a letter that would be persuasive (my evaluation, not her words). It was successful and I got a rebate of many tens of thousands of pounds, for which I am, obviously, grateful. I must say, not only was Ruth very professional but also very approachable, explaining all my various questions about the processes. She put me at ease at a time I was worried that I had lost a lot of money through my decision when filling in the tax forms (based on HM advice) and so I would recommend her and the company.
