Kept me focused

"Aimee really helped me through the process of our Shareholders Agreement and Articles, Aimee was very patient and kept reminding me where I had got to and what needed finalising, very patient and no judgement on my inability to focus on this level of detail."

Great service!

Caitlyn was fantastic throughout the sale of our flat. Living overseas made the process more complicated, but she was incredibly helpful, responsive and always kept us updated, making us feel that everything was under control. She was friendly, professional and went above and beyond to make the process as smooth as possible. We really appreciated all her help and would highly recommend Boyes Turner to anyone looking to sell their property.

Purchase and sale of two properties.

Used Boyes Turner as they were recommended to us as being on the ball, contactable and thorough in their dealings. We’re assigned to Kerry Pardoe and her assistant Sally Searle. What a delight to deal with. The transactions were completed with no stress or drama. In constant contact with us and each deadline set was met fully, every step was explained along the way. Would we use them again? Absolutely and without a moments hesitation. Selling & buying houses is a stressful experience but these ladies made it a seamless and almost enjoyable task!

Complex Listed Building - First Family Purchase

Cassie was very responsive and did her best to answer any and all queries we had from the initial offer to completion. We felt confident in her abilities to get our first home purchase, which was a listed building over the finish line. She also helped to gain valuable indemnity insurance that protected us from planning breaches and chancel. We're really pleased with the service and would highly recommend Cassie to others. Thanks very much Cassie!

Dinah was my solicitor for a transfer of equity in which she kept me informed at every stage, explained everything clearly, and was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had. Her attention to detail and efficient handling of the transaction gave me complete confidence throughout. I really appreciated Dinah’s support and expertise, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing help with a transfer of equity or other property matters. Thank you.

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.

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.

Support with SEN

We are very happy to provide this reference for Lydia, who supported us as a family in navigating the details of our child’s EHCP. The whole EHCP process can feel quite overwhelming, and at times it was difficult to know what we needed to ask for or where to start. Lydia was always approachable, reassuring and easy to talk to. She took the time to listen to us, explain things in a way that we could understand, and guide us through each step. Her knowledge and attention to detail made a real difference, and she helped us make sure that our child’s needs were properly understood and reflected in the EHCP. We always felt that Lydia genuinely cared about helping us get the right support for our child, rather than it just being another case for her. We are incredibly grateful for all her help, patience and reassurance. Having Lydia supporting us made what could have been a very stressful process feel much more manageable. We would have no hesitation in recommending Lydia to any family going through the EHCP process. She is knowledgeable, caring and genuinely committed to getting the best outcome for the children and families she supports.
