Excellent conveyancing solicitor
Superb service provided by Stephen Carew handling the sale of a flat for me, professional, informative and always fast to respond and handle the issues that arose. This could have been very difficult as I was acting as a power of attorney selling a flat that I had never visited, but thankfully Stephen overcame all obstacles and smoothed out the process. I have no hesitation in recommending his services.
