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.

Thank you so much for your fantastic review Nicole! We are delighted to hear that Jo was able to manage both your sale and purchase with the speed, clarity and professionalism you deserved. 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!

Took ten years to deal with my mums estate. Horrific communication which added to the upset and stress of an already very difficult time in our lives. Would not wish them on the worst of people let alone a grieving family.

Laura Inskip is the consummate professional. She supported me through a difficult process and was pragmatic, professional, sharp and had great empathy. She listens carefully and gives you no-nonsense advice that is incisive and on point and is not afraid to challenge. I thoroughly recommend and I certainly would not like to be on the other side to her!

I chose Clifton Ingram Wokingham to handle the conveyancing of my late mother's property. Prior to that, Clifton Ingram had been very helpful offering advice in regard to my mother's Financial EPA. I dealt with Lesley Quinn (Senior Conveyancer) who provided the most excellent service turning everything around by return of post and kept me informed. Everyone I spoke to at Clifton Ingram were knowledgeable, helpful & courteous. I cannot fault Clifton Ingram and wouldn't hesitate to use the firm again.

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.
