Can’t thank Horwood & James enough for coming to the rescue!
I was notified that my old solicitors had been shut down and found out there was an issue with my deeds and that it was never fully completed which caused a lot of worry and stress. Horwood & James were recommended, I called them and thankfully they took on my case in the end. The process and set up was quick. I dealt with David and he kept me in the loop and responded to my emails quickly. The registration of my property has now been resolved, so I’m very happy!

Professionalism and Empathy
I think it’s difficult for a solicitor to do a professional job whilst maintaining a friendly and warm feel, but Horwood and James seem to manage this effortlessly. Jill Swift was a pleasure to work with and made dealing with my late grandmothers Will far easier than I feared it would be. Thank you.

Moving house
We have recently sold and bought a new house and worked with Alison and Lisa for both. They are amazing, always happy to take your call, give advise and reassurance when needed. They are both friendly and very approachable. Their work is very thorough so you can feel confident that nothing has been forgotten and your are in 'safe hands'. We would recommend them without hesitation.
