Best solicitors I've ever used

5

I had to find a new solicitor's firm recently and as EMG had opened a new office in my town I decided to take a gamble and try them. I've used their conveyancing department, their litigation department and their Wills department, liaising with various different staff members.

EMG are friendly, approachable, thorough, efficient and I always knew I was in safe hands. The vendor whose house I bought was envious at how excellent my conveyancing solicitor Gillian Haines was in comparison to her own solicitor!

Highly recommended and I will definitely use EMG in the future.

property buying , power of attorney and will.

5

The ladies were wonderful at helping us through all the problems of buying a property.
The Will was sorted so fast.
But we are still waiting for the power of attorney (not solicitors fault).

Samantha recently assisted my mum with updating her will and making sure all of her affairs were in order. She has the perfect balance of being highly professional and genuinely caring. She explained everything in layman's terms and made the whole process extremely easy for us. We would highly recommend her services. There was also a very warm welcome from the reception staff at every appointment.

We recently had our Wills updated by Samantha Edward at EMG. She took the time to explain the complete process to us and the work was completed quickly and extremely efficiently, any queries were answered promptly and in full. I have no hesitation whatsoever in highly recommending EMG Solicitors, their friendly, efficient and highly professional service is a major asset to Penrith and the local area.

EMG solicitors have been fantastic. They have sorted wills, POA and tenants in common for us. Samantha has also attended the DST and Financial Assessment meetings with me as my husband is now in a care home. Support is invaluable as my family have opted out. Cannot thank you enough.
