Prompt, efficient, courteous and accurate

Buying a property at auction for the first time I was anxious and confused. Fortunately Gillian and her team were very capable. They communicated with me in a timely manner when there was anything I needed to do and provided regular feedback as the process continued. Given there was a strict four week deadline for completion, I was very pleased to be in a position to complete with a week to spare giving me the peace of mind that enabled me to properly plan and prepare.

We asked Gillian to help us with a quick “auction sale” which she absolutely delivered on. Every email had a quick response, She was very thorough with her approach and we got the sale done well within the timeline of only 56 days. Thanks Gillian

Excellent service provided by the Levi Team, I was kept informed every step of the way as to what was happening. When we pushed for a settlement date Gillian was excellent in negotiating this and everything was finalised within the week!

I honestly cannot thank Gillian & the team enough for all their help & hard work! After being failed by a previous solicitor I was recommended Levi’s Solicitors. They straight away appointed Gillian, we received great communication from the start & Gillian was always so quick to reply to any queries we had! I would recommend the firm to everyone & anyone.
Thank you again to Gillian & the team!

Chanelle was good and communicated well, she was only with us towards the back end of the transaction. Gillian Sandford was very good and pulled back what was becoming a very frustrating process under team Gent

I had a very positive experience with Levi Solicitors and will definitely be using them again for conveyancing work. Team Sandford & Team Dickinson gave great support and advice throughout the whole conveyancing process. The teams were easy to contact and provided speedy responses. Scott from Team Dickinson was great, he was available for calls regularly as the process got closer to exchanging and completing and provided great advice for a first time buyer!

We have used Gilliam Sandford (Team Sandford) for around 25 years now for both our personal conveyancing and our property company and have always been very happy with her service. There have been numerous times when things haven't been straight forward and she always goes above and beyond to get the deal done as quickly as possible. Having dealt with many conveyancer's / solicitor's over the years with working in the property industry I know first hand that there are some really terrible ones around that cause so much stress at what is already a stressful time but can honestly say I would recommend Gill to anyone asking for a recommendation. Thank you Gill for all your hard work!
