First Time Buyer

5

I cannot fault Sarah Walker with the conveyancing process and advice received concerning the purchase of my first home. She was organised, highly efficient, friendly, straightforward and kept in touch about what was happening promptly. Everything was made so much easier as things happened when she said they would. When Sarah was on leave Mark was also great.
Prior to appointing her, she was happy to answer all of my questions, and during the process patiently and professionally responded to queries despite them probably being annoying questions received from every first time buyer. On completion day, when it took several hours longer than expected to get the keys, and it was after 1700 on a Friday evening, Sarah wouldn't go home until she knew I had them. She is supposed to finish at 1430.
If there was something negative I could think of I wouldn't hesitate to be upfront and share, and honestly I cannot think of anything. (And I'm usually the type to find something!)
If you're looking to appoint a conveyancing solicitor I would recommend stopping searching and ask for Sarah at GWL.

Excellent service and help with mothers flat sale

5

Our solicitor Sarah was excellent, always returning phone calls, answering queries, same day. Also evidently well experienced in handling apartment sales with complications of management companies. The contrast with other sellers in the chain using online conveyancing options was significant and testament to the importance of using a professional firm with free access to the person (i.e. a solicitor) dealing with your case. I have nothing but praise for her and GWL

House Sale

5

Sarah Walker has been my sisters and my solicitor in dealing with the sale of my mother's house. It has been a lengthy sale. Although my sister has done all the work with Sarah's huge input, Sarah has kept me up to date with all the situations that have occurred.
Even the estate agent has been praising Sarah with her prompt actions and answers.
Very happy with our result.
Many thanks to Sarah for all her hard work.

Would recommend

5

I would recommend GWL to anyone to anyone. I dealt with Peter and Sarah, concerning probate and moving house. They were easy to get in touch with & both were experienced and knowledgeable. They always had time to speak & explain anything I was unsure about. Their costs were very reasonable & they were timely in getting the process completed. I will no doubt use them again in the future.

Conveyancing

5

My house sale and purchase has been done during the Covid-19 pandemic which has been a difficult time. My move was due to my husband having gone into full time care so I was having to deal with the move on my own for the first time. I have been looked after by Sarah Walker and Mark Broughton and both have been wonderful in giving me excellent advice and great support throughout the whole process. My sincere thanks to them both for everything they did. I cannot recommend them highly enough, they were brilliant.

I have used Sarah Walker now on several occasions over the past 5 years for buying and selling property. She is always friendly, professional and efficient. I would highly recommend GWL for conveyancing and will use them again should the need arise.

Sarah Walker at the Heswall office looked after our house purchase in Dec 2019. She gave excellent friendly advice, was on the ball with all the vital searches and was supported by superb back-up colleagues in the office. Unhesitatingly recommended!

Sarah Walker of the Heswall branch of GWL dealt with the sale of my mother's property. She was a delight to deal with - efficient, knew her stuff, offered great advice, was friendly and easy to get hold of. Really took the stress and hassle out of the process. Would highly recommend.
