Lisa and Georgia were both really excellent

I received excellent service from Lisa and Georgia who assisted me with my property matters in a relatively complex situation. They were both exceptionally supportive and efficient, and made the whole process seem straightforward.

Brilliant service

I cannot recommend this firm enough. We dealt with Lisa Brewer & her paralegal Georgia Riley and they were amazing. The handled our case with professionalism and showed that they had our best interests at heart. You'll read all over Google bad reviews for solicitors relating to conveyancing but the truth of the industry is no property transaction is straight-forward and there will be bumps along the road 90% of the time, a good solicitor will navigate these and give solutions wherever possible, this is where Lisa excelled most, the sellers solicitor wasn't quite as pro-active as Lisa but she worked through everything in a timely manor and pushed to make sure we completed before our mortgage offer expiry date. The main point that sticks out to me is how well Lisa & Georgia work together, they compliment each other in such a way that you always feel as though you're in safe hands. If I could give Charles French more stars then I would!

Stress gone… Happy customer.

We have used Rema now on several occasions for several different reasons. Firstly for a dispute between our housing developer, landlord and us. Needless to say all of our issues have been rectified. She took the time to understand our issues, how they effected us and in a professional, courteous yet personable way dealt with everything, which had been a huge stress for a long time. Secondly drafting employment documents for our business, communication was great, our short deadline met and overall we could not be more thankful.

Excellent service from local firm

I used Rema Ince to assist with a stressful case. I literally had no idea what I was doing (the law is a minefield). Rema took full control, with minimal fuss (which is exactly what I wanted) and dealt with it professionally. Rema was polite, well mannered (without being “stuffy”) and got the job done. Her pricing was fair (compared to other local solicitors) and she went above and beyond in chasing the other party and the court, when the court said my papers were “lost” LOL. I am also now using the firm (Jenn Roe) to buy a house for me and I am so far impressed.

An exceptional experience

I want to share my thanks and appreciation to Charles French Newquay for going out of their way to help me in a recent property transaction. The entire team was responsive and cooperative, and applied a 'human' touch in all my dealings with them. I also want to personally thank Nancy Gasser for being effective, efficient and looking to find solutions thoughout the entire process. I would not hesitate to recomment Charles French Newquay, and they'd be my first choice in future.
