Myself and my partner used Forbes Solicitors for help with the purchase of our first home. Kathryn Lofthouse,Amanda Martland and the entire team were great throughout the whole process. The team were always on hand to ensure that we understood each step and ensured that the process ran smoothly for us from start to end. We highly recommend their services. Thank you Forbes ๐Ÿ˜Š

First Class Conveyancing

The Team at Forbes were always available to reply to my queries, quickly answering both e-mails and answering phone calls. There was never a need to leave any answer phone messages.
The advice was clear and the whole transaction speedy, despite an unusual Title requirement.
Highly recommended and a pleasure to deal with.

Michelle and Kathryn have now helped us on five property moves over the years. Bringing an attention to detail and friendly enthusiasm to make sure everything is right for our property moves and we know all the details have been checked.

We had excellent service from both Michelle and Elizabeth throughout our house-move journey. They both made such a stressful process much lighter and easier, and I knew I could approach them with any questions throughout the process.
