I have worked with Cara for over 2 years now across several matters involving acquisitions, financing and disposals. Throughout, she has proven to be efficient and very responsive, often bringing to my attention matters we should be cognisant of. I would feel confident in recommending her to business contacts and colleagues alike

First Class Service Professional and Efficient

As an estate agent I deal daily with various solicitors and over 25 years I have probably left just a further 2 reviews as finding a good solicitor is the most important part of any transaction and for me communication and efficiency is key. Every time I contacted Cara she responded quickly and diligently and also the speed of the transaction was quick as she was on it the whole way through. Cara is a solution finder and quick to deal with any issues needing attention. If you are looking for an awesome solicitor that gives you the best service and looking for speed and effectiveness then please do get in touch with Cara as I will have no hesitation to recommend her moving forward.

Fantastic Service!

I cannot overstate how good a service I received from Boyes Turner during the recent sale of my property. Right from the outset, the team, led by Renika (and notably supported by Tajmin) were ever so professional, knowledgeable, patient and empathetic. I will certainly be using them again!

Great experience - highly recommend!

Dinah recently acted for us in both our house sale and purchase, and we were extremely pleased with the service provided throughout the entire process. Dinah acted professionally at all times, handled the transactions promptly and efficiently, and kept us regularly updated every step of the way. Communication was always clear and responsive, which made what can often be a stressful process much smoother. Most importantly, our completion deadline was met, which would not have happened without Dinah’s dedication and hard work. Everything was handled seamlessly. We would highly recommend her services to anyone buying or selling a property.

We used Ellena Balshaw in the Boyes Turner Residential Conveyancing team for our house move, and she was simply brilliant. What should have been a straightforward transaction became far more challenging due to a difficult buyer who pulled out, returned, and then appointed an extremely slow firm on their side. Their admin-led approach caused repeated delays, with decisions unable to progress without solicitor sign-off, despite Ellie clearly communicating our fixed completion dates. At the same time, our sellers were keen to move quickly as they were leaving the country. Throughout the process, Ellie kept us regularly and clearly informed about where things stood, the position with both our buyer and seller, and exactly what we needed to do next. She also proactively liaised with our estate agents and other parties to keep everyone aligned, meaning we were fully prepared and ready to proceed ahead of others. I would highly recommend Ellie to anyone buying or selling a property.

We had a fairly complex purchase with a lot of back and forth, and throughout the entire process Renika and Tajmin were professional, responsive, and reassuring. They guided us clearly at every stage, kept things moving, and were always available when questions came up. Their calm approach and attention to detail made a stressful process much easier, especially in the final stages leading up to completion. We truly appreciated the support and would happily recommend them.

We used Boyes Turner LLP for the second time, for both a sale and a purchase, and were very pleased with the service from start to finish. Stella Perry and Caitlin Treacy were both very helpful and diligent, keeping us updated throughout the process, despite having to deal with difficult other parties in the chain. It took a long time but they both stayed on top of things and we couldn't be happier with the result!

I would highly recommend Lauren Ainsley from Boyes Turner LLP. She assisted me with a property deal recently, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly! Always updating me and chasing up to ensure deadlines are met. She went the extra mile to make sure the deal was waterproof. I look forward to working with her again soon.

I had brilliant experience with buying and selling my property with Boyes and Turner. I never had to chase anything during the whole process and well informed by relevant people. Caitlin is super efficient and very responsive during the whole process. We were informed with everything immediately by Caitlin and problems mostly got resolved on same date which is exceptional!! I am looking forward to work with Boyes and turner and Caitlin again in the future!

Highly recommended wills, trusts and estate planning solicitor

I have known Matt a few years now and he is my turn to lawyer in relation to wills, trusts and estate planning. Under difficult circumstances Matt took the time to meet my parents and sibling to fully understand my requirements. His empathy and repeated attention to detail has been particularly impressive along with his creativity and ability to think outside the box. He displayed enduring patience with questions and provided full and considered explanations. The end work product was extremely impressive and, as I have done many times, couldn't recommend Matt highly enough.

Highly professional, dependable & thorough

Matt has been supporting me on a number of highly complex legal issues since the unexpected passing of my husband last year. He has tackled each issue with the utmost professionalism. He gives sound, objective advice & is very responsive, dependable, thorough and empathetic. I don't know how I would have got through the last year without Matt on my side.

Exceptional

I have dealt with Matthew for a number of years in his capacity as looking after my parents estate and planning their inheritance. Unfortunately last year I worked more closely with him due to the passing of my mother. The LPA process for my father who has Alzheimer’s was seamless and his advice and support in dealing with both my mother’s will and ensuring my father is protected due to his current capacity has been exceptional. His support for us as a family, the empathy he has shown and the way he has helped and communicated with us have been first class. I look forward to continuing to work with him.

Julie was professional and supportive. It’s an emotional rollercoaster pursuing justice for a life changing injury and all the staff at Boyes Turner completely understand and support you throughout the journey. Julie fought hard to keep the claim moving forward even when it looked doubtful at times. I couldn’t have done this without Boyes Turner and without Julie at the helm. I am eternally grateful.

Moved home many times and have seen good and bad conveyances. But never Outstanding…. Until now. Ellie Balshaw took over from the brilliant Stella Perry and hit the ground running. Her help, advice and overall support were such an important part of making a difficult situation seem easy. Ellie was a star. Thanks Ellie.
