Outstanding service for first-time buyers!

Carla and the team at Platinum handled our first home purchase from start to finish, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. As first-time buyers, we had plenty of questions, but every single one was answered thoroughly and promptly we never once had to chase them for an update. ​We used the Forces Help to Buy scheme, which we’d heard could sometimes be tricky, but Carla managed it effortlessly and everything fell into place without a single hitch. A special mention to Grace and Angela, who kept us well informed throughout the entire process. ​We cannot recommend Platinum highly enough and would happily use them again in the future. If you're looking for a reliable, responsive conveyancing team, look no further!

Would happily use them again!

Carla and the team at Platinum handled our first house purchase from start to finish, including one that fell through along the way. When we pulled out of the first property they dealt with it quickly and without fuss, and picked the second one up straight away. As first-time buyers we had a lot of questions. They were always answered properly rather than brushed off, and we never had to chase for a reply. We completed on a tight timeline in the run-up to a bank holiday and everything landed on the day it was supposed to. Grace kept us updated throughout. Would happily use them again and have already recommended them to friends!

First Time buyer

I had an excellent experience with my solicitor throughout the purchase of my property. Emily Jones, my case handler, was exceptional from start to finish. She followed up on every issue thoroughly, left no question unanswered, and made sure that every concern I raised was addressed promptly. She kept me informed throughout the entire process, and her professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail gave me complete confidence that my purchase was in safe hands. What stood out the most was Emily's availability. She was always willing to answer my queries, even outside normal office hours, which was incredibly reassuring during what can often be a stressful process. Her dedication and commitment to providing excellent client service went above and beyond my expectations. During Emily's one-week absence, Aisha Khan took over my case seamlessly. I was genuinely impressed by how quickly she familiarised herself with my file. Despite not having handled my case from the beginning, she immediately understood where things stood, knew exactly what needed to be done, and picked everything up without missing a beat. Her sharp understanding, efficiency, and confidence ensured that there were no delays whatsoever, which speaks volumes about her expertise. I would also like to recognise Kira, who was fantastic throughout the transaction. She ensured that every document was prepared, checked, and completed accurately and on time. Her attention to detail and organisational skills helped keep the process running smoothly, and it was clear that she took great pride in delivering work to the highest standard. The teamwork, communication, and professionalism shown by Emily, Aisha, and Kira made what could have been a stressful property purchase a smooth and positive experience. I am extremely grateful for all their hard work and support, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and dedicated conveyancing team.

I can’t recommend Kira, Emily and the team at Platinum in Reading highly enough. They were recommended to us when we were selling our apartment property and purchasing a house, and we’re so glad we took that recommendation. From start to finish, they were fantastic. They were professional, responsive, incredibly helpful and always kept us informed throughout what could have been a very stressful process. Despite dealing with both a leasehold sale and a freehold purchase, they worked incredibly efficiently and got us through to exchange in just 9 weeks. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and whenever we had a question or needed an update, they were quick to respond and explain everything clearly. Their attention to detail and proactive approach really made a difference and gave us complete confidence that everything was being handled. A huge thank you to Kira and Emily for all their hard work and for helping make our move as smooth as possible. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Platinum to anyone looking for a friendly, professional and highly efficient conveyancing team.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Platinum Solicitors throughout our house purchase and I genuinely can’t recommend them highly enough. Our purchase wasn’t always straightforward, but the team were incredibly knowledgeable and guided us through every stage. Communication was excellent throughout – we were always kept informed, everything was explained clearly, and when things became particularly tricky, they were available outside of normal hours when needed. We always felt that they were genuinely on our side and doing everything they could to achieve the best possible outcome for us. Even when things weren’t going to plan, they remained professional, friendly and reassuring, which made a stressful process so much easier. A special mention has to go to Emily, who was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. She went above and beyond for us, helped us through some very difficult patches and was always there when we needed her. Thank you so much to Emily and everyone at Platinum Solicitors for getting us through to the finish line. We couldn’t have asked for better support and would recommend them without hesitation!

I have never before actually enjoyed dealing with a solicitor, it’s just been something I’ve had to do and somewhat of a chore. Emily Jones and her team made it a positive experience and were friendly, efficient, reassuring and supportive throughout the whole conveyancing process. Highly recommend.
