Absolutely Outstanding Service – Highly Recommend Susan Clarke

My partner and I were buying our first home and unfortunately started the process with other solicitors who were slow, unresponsive, and making things unnecessarily stressful. That all changed the moment Susan Clarke took over our case. From day one, Susan was proactive, clear, and incredibly efficient. She immediately got to grips with everything, untangled the mess left by the previous solicitors, and drove the whole process forward at an impressive speed. Communication was excellent – she kept us informed every step of the way, explained everything in plain language, and always made time to answer our questions. Thanks to Susan’s professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail, what could have been a long and stressful experience turned into a smooth, straightforward journey. We genuinely felt like she cared about helping us get our home, and she went above and beyond to make it happen quickly. We can’t thank Susan enough for turning things around and helping us secure our first home. If you’re looking for a solicitor who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely committed to her clients, we cannot recommend her enough.

Huge thanks

Your firm charged a reasonable fee, and although it might be slightly higher than others, the fee is 100% worth it. You took over from another solicitor/ conveyancing firm that dropped our case, due to the fact that the deposit came from a high risk country. Your firm handled our matter nevertheless, and your staff were efficient and professional. Very satisfied, staff were in constant contact with us throughout the process. I love the fact that your firm is racially diverse in terms of staff and solicitors. The service we were provided was also excellent. Susan and Madalina were fantastic. They both answered emails almost immediately. They are absolute gems! Huge thank you to Susan and Madalina.

Efficient, supportive and professional!

Susan was fantastic from the day she took over the file for our case. We were purchasing a house and Susan was efficient, quick to respond and patient. I was very anxious and had lots of questions, Susan went above and beyond to provide guidance and answer all of my queries. Thank you for being so wonderful, we appreciate all of the time that you spent helping us through! Kelly and Sam :)

Madalina was my main point of contact through the sale and purchase of properties. Susan Clarke was the solicitor assigned for my houses. Madalina was absolutely outstanding and always happy to help. The process was as easy as it could be due the the professionalism and very high standards of work Madalina and Susan put towards the sale and purchase for me. I cannot recommend backhouse solicitors highly enough.

I had an excellent experience with Madalina and Susan handling my remortgage. Especially Madalina, who truly went above and beyond throughout the whole process. From start to finish they acted incredibly swiftly, honestly one of the fastest responses I’ve ever seen in conveyancing. They made everything smooth and stress-free and I really don’t think it would have gone this seamlessly without them. I’m extremely impressed and very happy with the professional service they provided. Highly recommended!!

First class customer service! Madalina and Susan made our conveyancing journey peaceful and pleasant, they were there for us through every hurdle and every question, no matter how silly might have seem, was answered with absolute professionalism. I couldn’t recommend Backhouse Solicitors more!
