House purchase
We had an exceptional experience with the house purchase even though it wasn’t all straight forward.
Would not use anyone else.
Great job.

Not the fastest or most responsive practice .......
The sole solicitor dealing with my house purchase was very diligent in reviewing the various documents and very easy to deal with; at first. After a short while his enthusiasm and responsiveness waned dramatically. What we were advised would take 2 to 3 months has taken almost 6 months. Most of this time was spent waiting, not knowing what was going on, not knowing what we had to do and getting little or no response to emails or phone calls. I complained to the Manager who laughed and said it's because of staff shortages and the chap doing our work was busy elsewhere. The final problem upon completion was to find that we had been charged several hundred pounds which the other party had originally agreed to pay. After months of being messed about we lost the will to argue and paid it just to avoid further delay in getting our home. The whole process of dealing with this company has been miserable and stressful.

Always excellent care
I have been looked after by the staff at John Welch and Stammers since 1962.
Over the years, various members of staff have dealt with the affairs of my family through deaths, adoption, house purchases/sales and Wills always with care and patience. I would not consider going elsewhere.

Efficient conveyancing service
Kenneth Skinner was communicative when required and generally easy to get in touch with and speak to. He answered emails and questions relatively quickly and represented us well ans efficiently during the sale of our property. He demonstrated good legal knowledge and experience.

Quality service both times
We have just sold our first house and in January completed on our second house. Kenneth Skinner acted for us. He was extremely professional and talked us through the whole process and made it stress free. This was our second time using JW&S, quality service both times.

Professional, reliable and friendly
We have used this legal practice for over 30 years, including for a very difficult property matter. They have always acted to a high professional standard and no problem has been too much trouble. The legal staff are helpful and friendly. Our latest matter was handled smoothly.
