Friendly, efficient service

Lisa was brilliant. We had a tricky freehold/deeds issue and didn't know where to start with it. Lisa reassured us and made sure we had everything we needed for a successful first registration. She also kept us in the loop throughout the process. Excellent service all round.

Conveyancing

Kerry was exceptional in her attention to detail, professional knowledge and promptness to questions posed to her. She clearly explained my options when decisions had to be made and I had total confidence in her at all times. She made the often upsetting process of a probate house sale with land registry complications as smooth as possible, which was much appreciated.

Used for conveyancing and totally brilliant from start to finish. They are certainly not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for and we couldn't fault them. We recommend them and would use them again.

We used Kathryn Shaw and Mandy for our sale and purchase of our new property. We highly recommend them, they pushed so hard to get us in as quickly as possible and our purchase was complete in 11 weeks! We will definitely use them again and highly recommend anyone needing conveyancing to contact Coodes

Dear James Thank you so much for taking your time to write this kind review. We were delighted to be able to help you. Coodes

I had the opportunity to work with Sophie Jones during my house purchase, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service. Throughout the process, Sophie was consistently professional, responsive, and helpful. She answered all of my questions clearly and put my concerns at ease. Thanks to her support, everything was completed within an excellent timeframe. I highly recommend Sophie’s services to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive solicitor.

I found the whole process efficient and professional, having never dealt with anything like this before I was so relieved to have it dealt with so quickly and Hayley was so kind and friendly and put my mind at rest right away. The whole process was resolved within days so cannot thanks Hayley and Coodes enough.
