House Purchase

Ben Smith has been aiding my efforts to buy a house for the past 2 years. (I kept get cold feet about which city to buy in!) Finally I have bought a lovely house in the south of the UK and he was with me every step of the way. He was very good with his communication and the searches, exchange and completion all ran like clockwork. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending him going forward

I recently employed Eric Robinson Solicitors to help me with my house sale, Ben Smith was my associate Solicitor and he was fantastic throughout. The whole process was simple and Ben was available to speak anytime I called.

I'm sure I will use them again in the future!
