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.

Outstanding Service, Communication and an Exceptionally Fast Land Sale

Michelle was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. She was knowledgeable, incredibly efficient and, importantly, explained everything clearly and in plain English. We completed the sale and received the funds just eight weeks after accepting the offer, which is the fastest property transaction I have ever experienced. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Michelle and will certainly use her again in the future.

10/10 Services - Thank you Ellie!

Ellie alone has restored my faith in the system and that you can get someone within legal/ solicitor firms who can communicate to their client in a way that makes them feel like you are their priority despite juggling multiple clients at once! Thank you so much Ellie for the clear instructions you have provided me throughout this journey, what was a stressful time has been significantly reduced knowing I had you representing me. True asset to the company!

Clear, calm and thorough in a tricky chain

The clarity, professionalism and overall transparency that was provided by Ellie in what is quite a convoluted process (and tricky to manage with my buyers!) was absolutely exceptional. I would have no hesitation in recommending Ellie & Boyes turner.

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.

Boyes Turner was recommended to us and we're so so pleased we used them for our conveyancing. It was quite a complicated process with our flat's specific lease situation and some boundary issues, but we had excellent advice with prompt and frequent communication, specifically from Ellena, as well as the rest of the team. We couldn't be happier with the service we received.

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.

Tara and her colleagues gave me and my family, clear, regular guidance. Although this is, by it's nature, a long process, we were kept up to date, and we're given timely responses and guidance throughout. With professional medical assessments reviewed regularly we achieved what we couldn't have done alone. Thank you all.

Outstanding Service and Communication Throughout a Lengthy Property Sale

Outstanding service from Michelle Streeter – highly recommended I cannot recommend Michelle Streeter at Boyes Turner highly enough. She represented us in the sale of our commercial freehold property in London, which proved to be a particularly lengthy and complicated transaction, taking almost a year to complete. Throughout the entire process, Michelle was absolutely outstanding. Her communication was consistently excellent: clear, prompt, thorough and reassuring. She kept us informed of developments, explained complicated legal matters in an accessible way and was always approachable and responsive whenever questions or difficulties arose. What particularly impressed me was her patience, persistence and dedication. Despite numerous delays and complications, Michelle remained professional, proactive and committed to getting the transaction over the line. She repeatedly went above and beyond what I would ordinarily expect, and I always felt confident that our interests were in exceptionally capable hands. Having someone so dependable, knowledgeable and conscientious made an enormous difference during what could otherwise have been an incredibly stressful process. I am genuinely grateful for all her hard work and would recommend Michelle without hesitation to anyone seeking a solicitor for a commercial property transaction. An exceptional professional and a real credit to Boyes Turner. Thank you again, Michelle!

Sophie Payne-excellent advice and support throughout

Sophie has been a massive help to me and my business partner, and I wanted to give her the recognition she deserves. She took the time to explain our options, answer our questions and make sure we understood what needed to happen next. Her advice was clear and practical, and she worked closely with our other advisers to help us make informed decisions. What really stood out was the follow-up. Sophie kept checking in and asking the right questions to make sure things had been dealt with properly. We felt she was looking out for us, and that meant a lot. I give credit where it’s due, and her patience, attention to detail and continued support deserve it. Having someone you trust to guide you through things makes a real difference when you’re also busy running a business. Thank you, Sophie, for everything you’ve done for us. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you and Boyes Turner.
