Made a complicated process simple - exactly what I wanted

Serena & Alice listened to what I needed and really took it all on board. There were obviously amendments and questions as I would have expected but much less than I had anticipated. For a process I was expecting to be hard work, it was really nice for it to just be smooth and easy.

I can't thank Kornelia and Victoria enough for the help with my house sale. Although there were many hold ups from the buyers end, both Kornelia and Victoria kept chasing things up and keeping me informed at all times. I highly recommend Bright Solicitors. 😊

From start to finish Bright's have impressed with their professionalism and efficiency with the sale of our house. Always quick to respond to questions and very clear with their responses. Victoria and Kornelia have certainly played a huge part in making the sale as stress free as possible. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

Awesome team -Bright Solicitors

We cannot thank Summer, Tiffany and the entire team at Bright Solicitors enough for the exceptional support they provided throughout our remortgage. Our case involved a number of additional requirements and, with us being based overseas, communication and timing were especially important. The team was incredibly professional, responsive and proactive at every stage. They kept everything moving, explained each requirement clearly and were always available when we needed assistance. What impressed us most was how much genuine care and attention they gave to getting the matter completed as smoothly and quickly as possible. We deal with many professional firms through our business, and the level of service we received here genuinely stood out. Efficient, knowledgeable, reassuring and an absolute pleasure to deal with. A huge thank you to everyone involved. We would recommend Bright Solicitors without hesitation and will certainly use them again in the future. Five-star service in every respect.

Sale of property with EPOA

I would highly recommend Kornelia, Victoria and the team. They handled the sale of my mum’s house very professionally and were always helpful, patient and approachable throughout the process. I always felt supported and kept informed, and they were happy to take the time to explain things whenever I needed it. The whole team were friendly, professional and made the process as straightforward as possible. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

I would highly recommend the residential team at Bright Plymouth. Jemma and Julie worked hard to get our property purchase over the line in record time, and supported us through the process end to end. Their professionalism and drive to get the job done both quickly and throughly set them apart from other solicitors we have used previously, and is the reason we return to Bright for their services time and again.

We first used Adam when purchasing our flat in 2019 and had such a great experience that there was never really any question about who we wanted to use when the time came to sell it and purchase our next property. As our new purchase, was commercial, Adam passed that side over to his commercial colleagues, Georgia, Jasmine and Lindsey, while continuing to handle the sale of our flat himself. It has been a long and, at times, very stressful process, but Adam, Georgia, Jasmine, Lindsey and the entire Bright team have been absolutely amazing from start to finish. I can honestly say I have been by far the most informed person in our entire chain throughout the process. Communication has been exceptional. Having a direct line and being able to actually pick up the phone and speak to someone has made such a difference, and everyone at Bright has been incredibly helpful and responsive, both by phone and email. When things became particularly stressful, including buyers pulling out and various complications along the way, Adam went above and beyond. There were occasions when he was responding to emails first thing in the morning and late at night, and he was always incredibly accommodating when I called with yet another question or wanted to understand exactly where things stood. Georgia, Jasmine and Lindsey have been equally fantastic on the commercial purchase. They have always been quick to respond, endlessly chased other parties in the chain when things needed moving along, and worked incredibly hard to keep everything progressing. Our purchase has certainly not been the most straightforward, and having such a proactive team behind us has made an enormous difference. We have also had the slightly unusual situation of three members of our chain knowing each other and seeing each other almost daily, which I think made the whole process feel even more intense than a normal house move! Throughout it all, the advice, reassurance and support we have received from the whole team has genuinely been second to none. Even our estate agent has commented several times on how helpful and proactive our solicitors have been, which I think says a lot. I have been recommending Adam and Bright to people for the last year and will absolutely continue to do so. After using Adam for our original purchase in 2019, and now having the support of both him and the commercial team through our sale and a much more complicated onward purchase, I wouldn't hesitate to use Bright again. A huge thank you to Adam, Georgia, Jasmine and Lindsey for everything you have done to get us through it!

We recently completed an auction purchase with Bright Solicitors and couldn't be happier with the service. Auction transactions come with tight deadlines, and the team handled everything efficiently and kept us fully informed at every stage. Particular thanks to Millie Ede and Codie Williams, who were both proactive, responsive, and a pleasure to deal with throughout. We'll definitely be using Bright Solicitors again for future purchases and would highly recommend them.
