Professional, knowledgeable & Sincere

Emelia was brilliant, without her support, determination, professionalism and expertise our house sale would have taken far longer. She pushed on despite difficulties with our buyers holding up the sale by bringing other house sells into our sale, that weren't there on the acceptance of their offer. As we were powers of attorney for this sale, Emelia understood the process and the need for the sale to happen asap. Very impressed and wouldn't hesitate to use Emelia again.

It’s wonderful to hear that her understanding of the powers of attorney process and proactive approach made a real difference. We greatly appreciate your feedback and are pleased to have been able to support you throughout.

Would highly recommend Matthew Bell

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. 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. 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.

Exceptional

Jennifer and the team at the Wokingham branch including Kinga aswell as Naomi from the Reading have been absolutely phenomenal with our sale and purchase! I can't thank them enough for getting this across the line. Our buyers solicitors were horrendous causing the process to be 7 months long, but Jennifer was so good at providing updates and really helping get things across the line. If I ever buy or sell again I will be using them and if anyone I know needs solicitors, they will be the first I reccomend.

Avoid at all cost

I was recommended Clifton Ingram by some colleagues so decided to contact them to review a settlement agreement. I was extremely disappointed in the service received. I found the service to be quite unwelcoming and, frankly, rude. At times, I felt dismissed and unsupported, which was disappointing given the sensitive nature of the matter. I had hoped for a more professional and empathetic approach. Given this, I respectfully do not feel confident recommending your services to others.

We had the pleasure of working with Jennifer for both a sale and a purchase. Jennifer and Kinga were fab they kept us informed throughout the whole process and was always prompt in coming back to us with any queries we had at any stage. Jennifer was brilliant at keeping all parties kept up to date and was always on top of things chasing the necessary people for what she needed. Couldn’t recommend this firm enough, thank you for making what is normally a stressful experience a far more bearable and exciting one! Jade & Joe

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.

I dealt with Stephanie Knight from the Farnham office who took on my case at very short notice. it was fair to say that she was up against it deadline wise due to me being in need of a swift turnaround but she delivered the result I needed to with no fuss and no stress. Unlike me, Stephanie was calm and composed throughout giving very clear briefs of what was needed and what would happen next. The upshot was I achieved what I needed to in order to secure my moving date. On that basis I would totally recommend .. thank you Stephanie.

Excellent service for a first-time buyer

Jennifer and the team remained very patient with my transaction, delayed by valuer/lender requirements, purchasing from my parents who really didn’t see the need for solicitors, and the then collapse of the solicitors my parents did instruct. I really appreciate the proactivity shown by Jennifer when my parents solicitors, PM Law (yup), had an SRA intervention; in fact Jennifer had told me about this before my parents even knew so I was able to get them to appoint new solicitors asap. Jennifer also had everthing ready to deal with the new solicitors to ensure there were no further delays. Jennifer was also easy to approach and was happy to answer my questions, and also happy to explain things to me as a first-time buyer. Thank you Jennifer for making what I was expecting to be the hardest part of the purchase as smooth as possible.

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.

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.
