Thank you for taking the time to leave a review Julian. We are glad to have been of help to you - Thatcher + Hallam
The Wills Probate department at Thatcher and Hallam were excellent and very helpful with all enquiries i made. There were no questions too big or small that they weren't able to resolve promptly. The overall process was quickly and efficiently completed. I would recommend thatcher and Hallam solicitors wills/probates department.
Thanks very much Sam for taking the time to leave a review. Really pleased the team were able to provide you with such a helpful service.
We used Thatcher & Hallam Solicitors as our conveyancers. From our very first contact, they were professional, yet personal . All of our queries were responded to promptly and thoroughly. Where problems occurred in other parts of the chain, we felt that the team worked hard on our behalf to ensure the process continued to progress. We highly recommend them and have requested further services from them.
Hello Simon - thanks for taking the time to leave a review and a recommendation. Really pleased that you will be using our other services going forward.
Fantastic. I cannot speak highly enough about this firm. Every member of the team are professional yet very approachable. If you need time to ask questions and understand what's happening with your case, you are given the time and attention. Incredible company that I cannot recommend enough.

Thank you Tristan - really appreciate you taking the time to leave your feedback.
We have used Hayley Wakefield twice now and without doubt, her and expertise in conveyancing is second to none. Not only that, but Hayley's personal service and ability to manage me during an incredibly stressful time was simply amazing. A massive thank you.

Lovely place, lovely people.
We were recommended Thatcher & Hallam for conveyancing by our estate agent. My partner contacted them to instruct them on a Thursday and didn’t receive a response until the following Tuesday. When they did reply, the response was unhelpful. A week later, we still hadn’t heard anything further, aside from a slightly snotty email saying they were busy and asking us not to contact them. Not a great impression. As of today, they still haven’t come back to confirm. As a result, our buyer was left waiting over a week for us simply to confirm basic conveyancer details for the memorandum of sale. This made us look disorganised and could easily have put our sale at risk. The estate agent who originally recommended them ultimately advised us to abort and go elsewhere. The new conveyancer they recommended replied and got it sorted within an hour - and even replied out of office hours. If they can’t be bothered to respond at the very start of the process, I dread to think how responsive they would be during the actual conveyancing. We also made it clear that we had another sale and a purchase coming up, so they’ve effectively lost out on two sales and a purchase due to being so slow, unprofessional and unresponsive in even getting themselves instructed. I’d strongly recommend avoiding them and choosing another firm that actually wants new conveyancing customers.
Dear Joseph, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience with our firm over the Bank Holiday period fell below expectations. We always aim to issue quotations promptly, however on rare occasions, delays can occur due to unforeseen staff absences. We have shared your feedback with the team and are reviewing our processes to help prevent similar delays in the future. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your understanding. We hope you will consider using our services again in the future. Kind regards, Mitchell
I rang to enquire about medical negligence as it was heavily advertised on their website. Receptionist unaware they offered this which was very concerning and gave me no confidence in using this company. It seems that they’ve gone very downhill since the 90’s when my family used them.
Dear Laura, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, although we are of course concerned to hear of your experience. Our team of solicitors do handle medical negligence claims, and I would be grateful if you could reach out to my colleague James at jweller@th-law.co.uk for further information on this point. We would like to provide additional training to ensure that your experience is not repeated. Unfortunately, I am unable to locate your call in our call logs, and I would be grateful if you could email me at mfellingham@th-law.co.uk to discuss further. I hope that you will give us an opportunity to put this right and look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Mitchell
Exceptional Service from Hayley Wakefield at Thatcher & Hallam Hayley was absolutely brilliant throughout what turned out to be a very long and stressful house sale and purchase. The process took over a year and nearly collapsed several times due to buyers dropping out and poor solicitors further down the chain, but Hayley was consistently excellent. She is professional, approachable, and explains everything in plain English, which made things so much easier to understand. Hayley always responded quickly and was at the end of the phone whenever I needed clarification or reassurance. Her calm, proactive approach kept everything moving when it could have fallen apart. I would highly recommend Hayley Wakefield to anyone seeking reliable and professional legal support for property transactions.
Dear Louise, Thank you so much for your review for Hayley Wakefield. It is great to see that she was supportive and reassuring throughout your house sale and purchase. We hope you settle in well to your new home and we will pass your review on to Hayley. Kind regards, Thatcher + Hallam
To, Mr James Weller, Annette, and all who dealt with my claim I would like to express my sincere gratitude for all your help, patience ,professionalism and understanding, I am now crying happy tears.😹😹
Thank you Karen for your kind review. We have forwarded your review on to James and Annette. We are so pleased that the team were able to bring you such joy! Best wishes Thatcher + Hallam
