Great Service, very professional.

Choosing the right Solicitors is a very important part of selling & buying. Kirsty and her team, Ellie & Milly were amazing! Very professional, great communication, was always kept updated with the process & very approachable. I would highly recommend using good law solicitors, and I would definitely use them again.

Better than I could ever have expected...

After moving various times over the years and finding the whole process incredibly stressful, with failures in communication often, I came across GoodLaw Solicitors. I was referred by the estate agent and cannot stress enough how this sale and purchase was different to any I have experienced before. The team were great but I cannot thank George(and Charlotte) enough.

The file did not seem without it's issues, but all of them were handled quickly and efficiently, and resolved to my satisfaction. I was given clear advice with pragmatic solutions and, best of all, I was proactively updated at every stage which I know, first-hand, is not the case with most conveyancing firms. They felt so reliable and approachable, yet still professional - I truly felt so confident that they were in my corner throughout the whole process - even on the non-legal aspects of my move!

We reached a completion within 10 weeks(impressive for a chain, I thought) and the bill came through exactly as expected. I am happy to say I will be returning to GoodLaw with any future legal needs and will recommend to anyone I can - as I know they will be in the best hands. I almost regret having a will already!

Absolutely first class service

George was amazing at all stages of my purchase on my Hove freehold flat. As a cash buyer I asked for a quick purchase and he managed it within 6 weeks - quicker than I expected!!! He is a joy to liaise with always gets back to e mails very quickly and nothing but professional.

Excellent service!

We recently purchased our new home through a part exchange, and our solicitor George was absolutely outstanding throughout the process. From the very start, he was quick to respond, consistently clear in communication, and incredibly efficient in handling all the legalities. Despite considerable pressure from the developer's side, George remained calm, professional, and completely on top of everything. His expertise gave us real peace of mind during what could have been a stressful time. We’re genuinely grateful for his support and would highly recommend his services to anyone buying a home – especially through a part exchange. Thank you!

Fantastic!!

We recently worked with Kirsty Gilbert and her fantastic team—Amelia and Ellie—at GoodLaw Solicitors, and we genuinely couldn’t be more impressed.

After a rocky experience with a previous firm, we were anxious about the process, but from the moment Kirsty and her team took over, everything changed for the better.

They were professional, friendly, and incredibly efficient from day one. Communication was always clear and timely—nothing was ever too much trouble. They made us feel supported and in safe hands throughout the entire process.

Kirsty’s leadership, along with the dedication and hard work of Amelia and Ellie, genuinely turned what could have been a stressful situation into a positive experience. They helped keep everything on track and ensured the process moved forward smoothly, even when things got complex.

We can’t thank them enough for their efforts and support—and we honestly can’t recommend them highly enough. If you’re looking for a solicitor you can truly rely on, ask for Kirsty and her team at GoodLaw Solicitors. They’re exceptional

Outstanding Service.

After a frustrating and truly awful experience with a previous firm, we turned to GoodLaw Solicitors—and the difference was immediate.

From the moment Kirsty Gilbert took over our case, everything changed. Kirsty, along with Amelia and Ellie, was efficient, approachable, and genuinely supportive. They kept us informed every step of the way, answering our questions with clarity and care.

They not only brought us up to speed quickly but also played a vital role in saving a large property chain that was on the verge of collapse. Their professionalism and dedication were evident throughout and made a significant impact—not just on us, but on everyone involved in the chain. The contrast between our previous firm and the team at GoodLaw was night and day.

We can’t recommend GoodLaw Solicitors enough—especially Kirsty. She truly turned our experience around and made what could have been a nightmare into a success.

We have and will continue to recommend Kirsty and her team.

Thank you!

Kirsty, Millie and the team at Goodlaw were excellent throughout the process of selling my Mum’s house. They kept me fully informed throughout, especially as I don’t live locally and was managing this from a couple of hundred miles away. Thankyou!

Not the best experience when buying a house. From the beginning I explained I was using a LISA and they didn’t seem to take this on board.It was only until a family friend told me the process of how to use it for the purchase I was able to use it. This resulted in later than anticipated for the completion date.
Trying to get the bank details to pay also just took so long.
I don’t think I would use them again. We still got our house though so we did reach the end goal. They are just very slow.
Getting other documents written alongside the purchase was a painful. The confirmation these documents had been completed was 4 months later!

GoodLaw have provided an exceptional service and have supported me for several very challenging years during my divorce and child dispute. Alix and Malvina have the skills, experience, professionalism and have given me much needed guidance and reassurance (always with compassion). Both delivering far more than the required legal protocols and I will be forever grateful to them.

GoodLaw Solicitors, and specifically Owen Walsh, were absolutely brilliant. We couldn't have asked for a better service. We had never leased a commercial property before so the process was quite unfamiliar. Owen patiently guided us every step of the way. He answered all our questions promptly and clearly, gave excellent advice and was just generally great to deal with. It made what could have been quite a stressful process much easier. Would definitely recommend. And if our experience with Owen is reflective of the standard of all solicitors at GoodLaw we would use the firm again for any other legal processes.
