    I unreservedly recommend Joanne Reader of Clifton Ingram Solicitors, Wokingham, to anyone seeking an expert in Residential Conveyancing. Jo was always immediately available to discuss any developments in the sale of my deceased brother’s property and more recently, the sale of our own property and purchase of another. Despite matters in both the sale and purchase chains, becoming quite stressful; with one purchaser pulling out and then wanting back in, delays in lodging funds at the bottom of the chain, contravention of planning rules at one property and unbelievably, outdated Land Registry documentation; J0's calm, considered reassurance supported my wife and me throughout. We were particularly grateful for her painstaking attention to detail and keeping us up to date each step of the way, dispensing honest advice whenever we raised concerns. If anyone is looking for a knowledgeable and extremely capable Conveyancing Executive at a reasonable price, look no further than Joanne Reader, we found her exceptional. Bill & Hazel John

      I cannot recommend Lois Stacey and the team at Clifton Ingram highly enough. They assisted us with a particularly difficult and protracted landlord/tenant possession matter, which involved a number of complications along the way. From the outset, Lois was extremely professional, knowledgeable and responsive. She took the time to explain the legal position clearly, provided practical advice throughout and was always very patient in answering my questions, even when the situation became increasingly frustrating. What I particularly appreciated was that Lois was not simply focused on the legal process, but also on finding the most sensible and proportionate way forward given the circumstances. Her guidance before and after the hearing was invaluable, and she handled the matter with a level of professionalism and care that gave us considerable confidence throughout. David Goddard, who initially assisted with the matter, was also very helpful and professional. Ultimately, we were able to obtain vacant possession of the property without needing to proceed to enforcement, and I am very grateful to Lois and the team for their assistance in getting us to this point. A thoroughly professional and highly recommended service.
