I have been a client of Leonard Gray Solicitors for 25 plus years and in that time I have purchased 2 trading limited companies, sold 2 limited companies. One company had 500 employees when I sold it. I have bought several houses and apartments and sold quite a few, bought industrial land and farm land, have created many leases for commercial tenants.
Most of the foregoing transactions have been handled by Justin Oakley and John Appleby.
The service I have received has been 100% or 10 out 10 rating.

Top service
Used LG to purchase property and two lease extensions, and a friend sold and bought property based on my recommendation. Always received efficient and helpful advice and first class professional service from Gill Henderson & John Appleby. No hesitation in recommending and will use their services again.
