I previously used Gard and co to purchase my first home in 2023 and max who works at the firm was absolutely wonderful and so helpful throughout. I then had news my dad passed away last year and without a will, as the child who was aware of his death I felt like all had been left to me to figure out, I reached out to Gard and co for advice and was set up with 30 mins free to speak with Bethany, she was amazing and explained the process and her pricing if she were to deal with it for me; she gave me options of different levels of her control over the estate and ultimately it was decided to leave everything in her capable hands. She updated me where she had news and was always friendly and helpful where I spoke with her on the phone. I couldn’t have done any of this without her and she’s a credit to the firm with her knowledge and understanding. Thank you Bethany you and your firm are wonderful and anything I need in future I’ll be back to use yourselves!

Professional approach from a well-established local firm of solicitors. All staff involved were friendly and dealt promptly with correspondence and any questions. Regular updates. Highly recommended.

Instructing solicitor to make new Last Will & Testament - or The Will - prefer former. Delays, misspellings, sloppy formatting - blame computer - 'lost' emails. Eventually signed/witnessed. Copy sent was a sorry excuse for a photocopy which was not carefully placed so some words were missing and some blurred. Too late realised that 2 items which were discussed - and on earlier originals presented to solicitor - were not included. I will either have to include in Letter of Wishes or add a codicil. Letter to solicitor conveyed my overall displeasure and much later a new copy of 'The Will' arrived - photocopy again - with reply that barely said 'My apologies for the inconvenience', ignoring remarks about missing items. Not a good experience. Regretfully, will most likely not use this company again despite earlier dealings (conveyancing) being very good. ('Select professional' does not list this solicitor)

We decided it was time to get our wills done after putting it off for months. So we contacted Gard & Co as we had used them when buying our house . So we arranged a date for Bethany to come around(i am disabled so it was easier for me). So Bethany arrived and went through everything with us. She was so helpful and now we have signed the wills. It's a relief to know it has eventually been sorted.

After carefully considering which Plymouth law firm to use for my conveyancing, I decided to go with Gard & Co, and I’m so glad I did. Michelle Pepper turned out to be the best solicitor I’ve ever dealt with. She was exceptionally good at her job and, perhaps most importantly during such a stressful process, had excellent communication skills. If you want a solicitor who is approachable, responsive and keeps you informed, I cannot recommend Michelle highly enough. Buying and selling a house is stressful enough without having a solicitor who is difficult to contact or leaves you wondering what is happening. Michelle was the complete opposite. She was constantly chasing other solicitors, estate agents and everyone involved in the chain when communication was lacking, and she never stopped pushing things forward. There were several points where the whole transaction came very close to collapsing, and without Michelle and the team’s determination, I genuinely don’t think we would have got over the line. They went the extra mile throughout and did everything they could to make what was an incredibly stressful process run as smoothly as possible. My estate agent, Luscombe Maye, were so impressed with Gard & Co that they have now started recommending them to their customers, which I think says a lot. Thank you so much to Michelle and the whole team at Gard & Co. I’m a very happy client, and after this experience I honestly wouldn’t use another law firm or solicitor.

Jodie and her team were amazing dealing with our house sale and purchase. She was friendly and helpful and explained everything to us clearly. Would highly recommend

Anthony Longville from Gard & Co Solicitors was superb and we would strongly advise anyone seeking a solicitor for conveying to use him. Anthony and his team did an excellent job. Very efficient and always kept us informed of any changes as and when they were happening so their customer focus is of the highest quality.

Jodie was so efficient and helpful when we recently used Gard & Co when buying our home in the UK after living overseas for a number of years. She acted quickly to deal with any issues/requests we had, and really knows her stuff! It's a shame the sellers solicitor wasn't as professional or efficient! Would definitely use again. Thanks Jodie!
