I used Farnfields Solicitors Gillingham for the purchase of a property in Mere, Wiltshire. The service provided was of the highest standard. In particular the communications throughout the process was superb. Special mention must be made of Joanna Shortland and Daniella Flintan. They were extremely professional but also very easy to work with. I highly recommend this firm.

Wouldn't use anyone else!

We have sold and bought several properties in the last few years, including through probate and a non simultaneous purchase and sale. Throughout we have used the services of Farnfields and particularly Sarah Clarke and Emma Barlow. They are both consistently professional, efficient, friendly and human which makes the whole process so much easier. We cannot fault them for service and would not hesitate to recommend them.

Commendation of Excellence Services offered by Mr. Matthew Dunford

We are very grateful for the professional conveyancing services offered to us by our solicitor Mr. Matthew Dunford of Farnfields Solicitors in closing the sale of our maisonette apartment in Bath, which had lapsed over a period of about 3 years. During this period, we had several potential buyers offering to buy our apartment, but all in vain. Mr. Dunford tirelessly gave us advice to guide us through and tackle each and every issue preventing the close of the sale. His professional knowledge in the conveyancing field was undeniably instrumental in helping us successfully overcome these issues and finally, we smoothly sold our property recently. We wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Dunford to anyone wishing to find an expert solicitor in professional conveyancing services. Thank you Mr. Dunford.

A representative from Farnfields LLP responded to this review

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. We are delighted to hear that Matthew was able to guide you successfully through the conveyancing process and help you achieve a smooth sale of your property. Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and we truly appreciate your trust in Farnfields Solicitors. It was our pleasure to assist you, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Sarah was absolutely fantastic throughout my recent property transaction. Her professionalism, efficiency and clear communication made the entire process seamless from start to finish. She was always approachable, quick to respond and incredibly thorough, making sure every detail was handled with care. It’s clear Sarah genuinely cares about her clients and goes the extra mile to make what can be a stressful experience feel completely manageable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sarah and Farnfields to anyone needing expert conveyancing support. A really great service.

Having had a poor experience in the past with another solicitor, an estate agent friend pointed us towards Farnfields. That was 15 years ago. Since then we have undertaken 6 property transactions with Farnfields. Without exception they have all been well handled. Matthew Dunford handled our latest property transaction and, with his assistant Dawn, once again it went through smoothly with good advice and timely information provided to us throughout. Thank you once again for excellent service.

A representative from Farnfields LLP responded to this review

Thank you for your wonderful feedback and for choosing Farnfields for so many of your property transactions over the years. We’re delighted to hear that Matthew and Dawn provided excellent service once again. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind comments to them both.

Purchase of land bought at auction

We pre-bid on one of 10 plots of land and our completion date was set for a few weeks later. We chose Farnfields and are so glad we did because other plot purchasers had no end of problems and some had to change solicitors mid-way through negotiations. Farnfields were brilliant. Kate Furlong was diligent, efficient and always answered or returned our calls. Our purchase became complicated due to the auctioneer not preparing the right details in the pre-auction pack. How Kate managed to overcome all the obstacles we will never know, but after months of negotiations, wrong plans and poorly filled out TP1 documentation from the seller's solicitors we finally completed. Unfortunately due to all the complications Farnfields had to increase their fees. We hadn't budgeted for it and asked for a financial breakdown of costs. It helped us understand where the money had gone. We realised the difficulties being thrown at Farnfields by the seller's solicitor one after another. If Kate was unsure about anything, she referred to her senior colleagues, so we knew we were always getting the best advice. Julian was particularly helpful on completion day. All in all a brilliant service from Farnfields from the receptionists upwards. Kate's assistant, India, was helpful too. We always felt listened to. We now have our own little piece of countryside preserved for wildlife. It is a long-held dream come true thanks to the team at Farnfields, especially Kate Furlong. We can't praise her highly enough.
