Llaura Burton-Phillipson

Accreditated Paralegal

Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

Based in our Dunfermline, Llaura joined our team in 2021 – however, she previously worked in our Dundee office for just under 5 years up until 2016, so knows our processes and procedures well. With 20 years of experience in the Legal Sector, Llaura took her knowledge to the next level and qualified as a Paralegal in 2015. Working within our fast-paced Conveyancing team, Llaura is kept busy helping to process general conveyancing matters including sales, purchases, re-mortgages and discharges and will most likely be your point of contact if you are buying or selling a property and call the office. Friendly, reliable, and helpful, Llaura understands that the process of buying and selling property can be a stressful one and looks to help alleviate that from our clients wherever possible by keeping them up-to-date at all times. Llaura lives in Dunfermline and in her downtime enjoys watching films, listening to music and reading. A great detective novel is her favourite genre!! She also loves Chinese and Italian food and every year she goes to Alton Towers with her brother – it’s a lot of fun and one of her favourite places to go for escapism.

Another slick performance from Laura at W&AS Bruce. I couldn't believe that the whole process took such a short time. Well done again!

Made the conveyancing process straightforward

Myself and my partner recently purchased our first property using W&AS Bruce and Llaura Buton-Phillipson as our Conveyancer. Llaura was always super quick at responding to all queries even before we had fully reserved our property and was happy to provide updated quotes several times for the different types of properties we we looking at. Once we eventually found our property was again excellent and thankfully admitted due to the time of year (the week before they shut for Christmas), she would be unlikely to be able to start the conveyancing till January, this allowed us to discuss with the developer to ensure this would still suit their timelines and work for us all. When reopening in January, Laaura quickly picked up the conveyancing and always sent simple explanations of any the legal paperwork and explained any of the legal jargon. Llaura also repeatedly made it clear if there was anything we did not understand to just contact her and she would explain further. Whilst W&AS Bruce were not the cheapest quote i had recieved, they fully explained what their legal fees and what was outlays/VAT, some of the other quotes i recieved did not take into account any outlays. I am also glad to say the original quote was very accurate compared to our final bill. I would reccommend not being drawn in by these cheap online conveyancers who dont communicate at all and your just a number. If your looking that personal local conveyancer who will look after and explain everything to you then LLaura is exactly who you want. A massive thanks again to you and all the team at W&AS Bruce who made our journey so straightforward.

Exceptional

Having reached out to Llaura to assist in my house sale after a separation and my then onward purchase, I could not fault her. She kept me informed all the way through and answered all my questions timeously. She made what was a very stressful time feel less stressful and I felt I was in good hands. Llaura kept me reassured all the way through.

I was let down by my original solicitor, however W & AS Bruce reacted swiftly and saved the day. Laura has been very quick to respond to any questions and was very professional. The purchase of the property was smooth.

What a wonderful experience engaging W & A S Bruce to do the conveyancing for my late mother's house. Llaura and the girl on Reception, whose name I failed to record, could not have been more pleasant and helpful throughout. The office is in the centre of Dunfermline and has two-hour and pay and display parking adjacent.

Had a great experience and great support from Llaura throughout the stressful time of purchasing our first home. She was patient, thorough and took time to answer every question or query we had, which was a common occurrence as we had never been through the process before. Couldn't be more happy or thankful, great service and highly recommend. Thanks again Llaura and team.
