Collected on:
As soon as I knew I was involved in a criminal court case, I contacted Clifford Johnston, my main point of contact being Lina (along with Erik).
From the start, they were extremely professional. All communications were very clear and efficient; I was constantly updated, and they responded quickly to my queries.
And finally, their efforts resulted in me being very happy with the outcome.
I unreservedly recommend this firm.
A representative from Clifford Johnston & Co Limited responded to this review on 18 August, 2025:
Thank you for your kind words, Annie. We’re delighted Lina, Erik, and the team could provide clear, professional support and achieve a positive outcome for you.

A truly outstanding experience from beginning to end! Having come immediately from a long and drawn-out purchase failure on a previous property caused by our solicitor's incompetence, David's expert handling of our case was exemplary. It felt, at all points, that he had our best interests at heart and never once delayed in responding nor replied with short or cursory messages. When we had confusion around some search results and surveyor recommendations, his legal insight was delivered both with clarity and understanding of our position as FTBs.
It is true that this service is more expensive than some providers in the Didsbury/Heatons area but it is absolutely and completely justified by the standard of practice provided. It truly was fantastic throughout and we are immensely happy with David's skill in bringing our purchase to a successful completion!
A representative from Clifford Johnston & Co Limited responded to this review on 18 August, 2025:
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re delighted to hear that David provided clear, expert, and attentive guidance throughout your property purchase, ensuring a smooth and successful completion. Your kind words are greatly appreciated.

I felt every confidence in dealing with David. He was fantastic in helping me to complete a time sensitive matter. He was professional, courteous and ensured me that he would get this completed in the timeframe given. He delivered on that promise efficiently, minimising stress and ensuring that I was informed throughout the process.
I would not hesitate to recommend David, 100% recommendation.

David was recommended to us and I am so glad to have met him. He has helped with buying a house last year and selling a flat this year. The process for both of these was smooth, efficient and accurate. David is meticulous with his work and he made sure there were no delays, which was exactly what I needed. I have had a horrible experience in the past with a solicitor who would never reply calls or emails, working with David was exceptional. I will recommend David to anyone. Thank you David!
A representative from Clifford Johnston & Co Limited responded to this review on 04 August, 2025:
Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your experience, Adam. We’re delighted to hear that David provided the smooth, efficient, and attentive service you deserved, especially after your previous difficulties. David takes great pride in his work, and we’re thrilled to know he made a positive difference for you. Your recommendation means a lot to us. Thank you again for choosing our firm, and please don’t hesitate to reach out if we can assist you in the future.

Chris Furbey completed on our house sale and purchase last week. Throughout the process, Chris was proactive, responsive, and clear in his communication. His expert knowledge and extensive experience ensured things ran smoothly from start to finish, with Chris and colleagues going above and beyond to manage the chain and ensure deadlines were met. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Chris to others and will certainly use Clifford Johnston & Co’s services as required in future.

Chris managed the sale of my house on Didsbury Road. Throughout the journey Chris always kept me fully updated with progress & even answered emails well into the evening. The bill for his efforts was also great value which is a plus. Thank you Chris, professional & a great communicator.
