Kate Brown at Farnfields could not have been more helpful. I had so many questions and doubts throughout the divorce process I was concerned about pushing up the cost unnecessarily with every email, but not every communication was charged to my account. Kate was very clear and supportive every step of the way, and dealt with all the issues sensitively and professionally. Thank you Kate! .

I want to sincerely thank Farnfields Solicitors and in particular Meril George for her outstanding support during my divorce financial settlement. From the very beginning, Meril was clear, kind, and professional, guiding me through what was an emotionally and practically difficult process. She explained each step carefully, always responded promptly to my questions, and made sure I understood my options. Her advice was firm where needed, but always given with empathy and patience. Thanks to her dedication and expertise, my financial matters have now been concluded fairly and efficiently, giving me peace of mind and the ability to move forward. I am deeply grateful for her work and would not hesitate to recommend Meril and Farnfields to anyone needing family law support.

I contacted farnfield for change of name. As I didn't have a surname in my Indian passport but I have full name in my given name space and when I got my british passport I have surname but no first name. So I wanted to sort this out by seperating my first name and surname. When I explained everything Meril George helped me with my whole process. She explained everything very well. Now I got my new passport with first name and surname separately.I'm happy with the service they provided. Thanks Meril for your help.

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.

Many thanks for the conveyancing on the recent sale of my late Uncles house. Caron Abbott and Molly were very professional and made the whole process very easy, I really can’t thank them enough.
Ella-Rose and Lucy were both extremely helpful throughout the buying process. Always easy to get hold of, and happy to explain things when we were unsure. As first time buyers, we felt greatly supported by both of them. Thank you.
