Excellent service

Jo helped me to navigate a difficult flat sale. Throughout the process she was very contactable, responsive and explanatory in all stages. Jo kept me informed of any changes/ updates in a very timely manner and answered questions that I had. She was very approachable and willing to share her knowledge. I would work with Jo in the future when dealing with property sales.

I engaged Clifton Ingram to handle the legal aspects of my recent house move, and I was very satisfied with the service provided. The transaction proved to be more protracted than anticipated, with a number of delays and complexities arising along the way. Throughout this period, Jennifer and team remained consistently professional & diligent. Communication was clear and timely, and I felt well-informed at each stage of the process. Despite the drawn-out nature of the sale, matters were ultimately brought to a successful conclusion, and I am grateful for their steady guidance from start to finish. I would not hesitate to recommend Clifton Ingram for conveyancing services.

Lois was superb. She had to take over my case when her colleague went long term sick and was up to speed rapidly. We successfully evicted the tenants for non payment of rent. Apart from not knowing what the Counsel's fee in court was going to be, there were no surprises which I appreciated.

from Clifton Ingram LLP

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us Rebecca. We are delighted to hear that Lois was superb in handling your case. Stepping into an ongoing matter due to unexpected colleague illness requires a great deal of skill, and we are proud of how rapidly Lois got up to speed to secure a successful eviction for you. We always aim to ensure there are no surprises for our clients during what can be a stressful process, so we glad you appreciated that predictability. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the clarity of the Counsel’s court fees. While external barrister costs can sometimes fluctuate close to a hearing date, we always strive to provide as much upfront fee transparency as possible, and we will use your comment to review how we communicate these estimates in the future. Thank you for trusting our firm to assist you, and we wish you all the best with your property moving forward.

I recently worked with Matthew Bell on a Promotion Agreement in South Bucks after he was recommended to me through industry contacts. I would say Matthew has been the best solicitor I have worked with in my experience at SMEs and very good value compared to tier 1 city firms I'm used to from the plc world meaning he will definitely be one of my main go to solicitors. Matthew took the lead on drafting the agreement and his advice was extremely commercial and efficient throughout. He was a good advocate when dealing with the other side’s solicitors, had an excellent grasp of all relevant legal principles as well as their practical impacts and was always focused on the really key points. One of the most important things was that he was always available on the phone to keep me updated and always professional and friendly to deal with. Obviously, you don’t get the overnight turnaround times on drafting you will get from a city firm but his review of the other side’s comments was always done in very good time. Needless to say, with Matthew’s help we managed to enter an agreement that both sides were happy with! I would definitely recommend Matthew and hope to work with him again in the near future.

Clifton Ingram LLP

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback, Kirill. We’re delighted to hear that Matthew provided efficient, commercial, and practical support throughout your Promotion Agreement. It’s wonderful to know his guidance helped achieve a successful outcome for both parties. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated, and we look forward to assisting you again in the future.

Great, Prompt Service from Jo Reader, Wokingham

We used Jo for our sale and purchase and found her to be extremely timely with responses and helping to push through the transactions. We spoke with her just a few times when we had queries and she was always able to answer clearly and with professionalism. We had full trust in Jo that she would act in our best interest. We were super impressed with the speed at which she acted - we did not have to chase her up for anything; she just got on with it. Fees came in as per the estimate. Altogether, great service and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend.

Not having to chase for updates and receiving clear answers whenever you needed them is exactly the experience we want every client to have, and it is wonderful to know that came through at every stage. The fact that fees came in as estimated is also something we feel strongly about, no surprises for our clients. We will make sure Jo sees your lovely words, she will be thrilled. Thank you for your recommendation and we hope to be of assistance to you again in the future!

Superb Service by Jo Reader

I would like to take this opportunity to Thank Jo Reader for the excellent way she handled the sale of my elder Sisters house in South West Wales after she had moved into Care home accommodation and I, having Power of attorney for her affairs, had to arrange the sale of her house. Jo made the whole process so simple in what appeared to me to be a rather daunting task and I can not thank her enough for her excellent work. Thanks once again Jo and C.I team

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a heartfelt review. Managing the sale of a property under Power of Attorney, particularly at what must have been an already emotional and challenging time for your family, is never straightforward and we are so pleased that Jo was able to make the process feel simple and manageable for you. Your kind words are a wonderful reflection of the care and dedication Jo and the wider team bring to every client. We will make sure she and the team see your lovely message it will mean a great deal to them all. We wish you and your sister all the very best!
