Property sale

I can not thank Fiona and the team for ensuring the smooth sale process of my flat. They respond so quickly to my emails and phone calls, and kept me up to date at every stage. They made the whole experience completely stress free. I can't recommend them highly enough. I will definitely use them again in the future. Ellie

Flat sale Review

We have just sold our flat, and Kirsty and Ellie handled the sale with great care and professionalism. They dealt with any problems quickly and efficiently and kept everything moving, which was such a relief and gave us complete confidence that everything was being handled properly. They were always quick to respond to our phone calls and emails and made what can often be a stressful process feel remarkably straightforward and stress-free. We would highly recommend Kirsty and Ellie at Goodlaw to anyone looking for an excellent solicitor to handle a property sale.

Great service through a tough sale

Couldn’t be happier with Janek from Goodlaw. I had a tough sale, where my co- freeholder created a lot of issues and delays. He always kept me informed and co ordinated things very well. I strongly recommended Janek and Goodlaw.

Absolutely excellent experience

We would highly recommend Goodlaw, and especially George, to anyone looking for a hard-working, professional and highly proactive & efficient conveyancer. We have used Goodlaw now for many years and for varying services, including former house sale and purchases; we have always been impressed. This was our most efficient transaction to date though, which considering how volatile and frustrating a chain we were part of, really does speak volumes. If only the other conveyancers in the chain had been like George. We cannot rate him highly enough for the speed of his communication, his professionalism and proactivity. In a market where sadly pace is often lacking, this was absolutely not the case here. We would strongly advocate for both the firm and George - a conveyancer who really does get the job done.

Incredible Support

I cannot recommend George and his team enough if you are purchasing and/or selling a house. I have always had horror stories of terrible solicitors and I was so worried about choosing one. George and his team were incredible! They respond so quickly, answer all the questions you have, are patient with explaining the process. We couldn't have had a better experience of selling and buying our property, even with quite a complicated chain. A huge thanks to the team!

I've been meaning to write this review for a while. George Coomber acted on our behalf earlier this year for our house sale and purchase. What a great service he provided! Very efficient and thorough, replied to emails very quickly - sometimes out of hours when I wasn't expecting a reply so soon. If he had a busy completion day coming up he would let us know he would answer as soon as he could. He thoroughly explained any queries we had and made the whole process run smoothly. We were recommended George by our estate agent and I have since recommended him to our daughter and son-in-law who have also just completed on their house purchase. I would highly recommend if you want a solicitor who is easy to deal with and gets things done!

Just completed on our first house! We honestly couldn’t recommend Janek and his team highly enough. He came recommended to us by Charlotte at Your Mortgage Room, and from the very start they were incredibly responsive, knowledgeable and friendly throughout the whole process. Buying a house is supposed to be one of the most stressful things you can do, but Janek and his team made everything feel manageable and kept us sane through some quite stressful moments in the chain. Communication was excellent throughout, everything was explained clearly, and we always felt like things were in safe hands. We’re really grateful for all the hard work from Janek, Megan, Alix and the wider team, and we’ll definitely be using them again whenever we move in the future. Thank you again for everything. Charlie & Amber

I recently used GoodLaw for my first property purchase. George was brilliant - extremely quick to respond throughout the process and did a large amount of chasing of the sellers solicitors. He was well informed and guided me with a tricky purchase of who to talk to when and what I needed to push the estate agents for. I would highly recommend George to any first time buyers!

Kirsty, Ellie, and Milly were absolutely exceptional. As a first-time buyer I was fairly panicked about the whole process, and had heard the usual nightmare solicitor tales i.e. "make sure you call them and harass every day" but there was no absolutely no need for that. They were super quick to respond by email whenever I had a question, and worked completely harassment free making the entire process much smoother. Strong recommend, and will definitely use GoodLaw again once I decide to move. I mostly dealt with Ellie who I'd like to particularly call out as having been excellent in communication but as mentioned, all were amazing.

I would highly recommend George and the team at Goodlaw. He was absolutely fantastic in dealing with the conveyancing during the recent sale of our property. George was very quick to respond, which is so important during this process. He was great at keeping us up to date with progress and any further information he needed. I'm not buying my next property in that area but I will be back in touch anyway as the service was fantastic.

Another Great Experience

This is my second time using GoodLaw's service, they have been great and easy to communicate with, George got my property sale complete for a reasonable rate and it was a pleasure to work with him.

A happy customer

We worked with George and the team for both the sale of our old house and the purchase of our new one, and cannot recommend him highly enough. Partway through, our original buyer pulled out, but George kept things moving and a new buyer was found without the case losing momentum. Then, right at the last minute, we discovered the house we were buying had unresolved issues with its solar panels that would not be fixed until after completion. This could easily have caused the whole chain to collapse, but George worked quickly to find a solution that let us stick to our original timescale and kept everyone on side. Throughout, he was calm, proactive, and clearly experienced in handling the sort of last-minute problems that can derail a house move. We always felt he was on top of things and looking out for our interests. If you want a solicitor who can keep a transaction on track even when things go wrong, George is exactly who you need.

A Lifeline When We Needed It Most

Thank you Alice for all your hard work, patience, guidance and professionalism during what was the worst time of my life. You was there for me and my daughter every step of the way. Your calm and pragmatic approach helped me calm down and remained focused even through difficult moments. I appreciate everything you have done. Thank you for helping me through a very challenging time.

Great experience using GoodLaw Solicitors for a property purchase in Brighton. George Coomber was very patient in answering all my questions and even responded to an email I sent late on Friday over the weekend. Excellent support from Charlotte and Leon too. Highly recommend them.
