Dear Jason, thank you for taking the time to leave such a great review. We will pass on your comments to Natalie and the team. If you need any assistance in the future, we'd be happy to help. From everyone at Backhouse.
In January I approached the employment team at Backhouse for some assistance with an employment law matter. When I contacted Backhouse and specifically Natalie Stein I had no need to worry. Natalie and team were amazing - so caring and detailed and they literally made it all so easy for me which was a welcome relief. It was all sorted very quickly which was a welcome relief. Lovely people, amazing service - would highly recommend.

Catie and Chelsea were outstanding from start to finish. This was a challenging transaction with tight deadlines and real pressure right up to the final stages, but they handled everything with professionalism, persistence and clear communication throughout. Despite the time constraints and complexities, they stayed on top of every detail and ultimately got the deal over the line when it really mattered. Their responsiveness, organisation and ability to push things forward made a huge difference. Very, very pleased with the service and would not hesitate to recommend them.

I was recommended through our builder Denbury Homes and they came out very comparable with local and online solicitors with the added bonus that they knew exactly what they were doing as work with Denbury all the time with new builds. I would thoroughly recommend

Thank you for your review. We appreciate the positive feedback you have given us and look forward to working with you in the future.
My partner and I were buying our first home and unfortunately started the process with other solicitors who were slow, unresponsive, and making things unnecessarily stressful. That all changed the moment Susan Clarke took over our case. From day one, Susan was proactive, clear, and incredibly efficient. She immediately got to grips with everything, untangled the mess left by the previous solicitors, and drove the whole process forward at an impressive speed. Communication was excellent – she kept us informed every step of the way, explained everything in plain language, and always made time to answer our questions. Thanks to Susan’s professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail, what could have been a long and stressful experience turned into a smooth, straightforward journey. We genuinely felt like she cared about helping us get our home, and she went above and beyond to make it happen quickly. We can’t thank Susan enough for turning things around and helping us secure our first home. If you’re looking for a solicitor who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely committed to her clients, we cannot recommend her enough.

Dear Alberto, thank you for taking the time to write a fantastic and detailed review for Susan and the team. We are thrilled you enjoyed your experience using us as your conveyancers, and if there is anything else we can do for you in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be sure to pass on your brilliant feedback to the team. Thank you again from all at Backhouse Solicitors.
Colin was very helpful and dealt with my Uncle's probate professionally and efficiently. As my Uncle's estate was intestate, he gave good avice in protecting my liabilities as administrator of the estate. He responded positively to my requests and gave good advice when required. He was prompt in responding to emails. I was impressed when his team pursued an old certificate of John Lewis shares which stumped John Lewis in realising the value of the shares. They were able to achieve a successful outcome due to their tenacity in dealing with this. I was especially grateful for this as these shares were a matter of pride for my Uncle.

Backhouse Solicitors completed my recent sale and purchase. Their service was outstanding, from beginning to completion. Robert, Tegan and Megan were so professional but with such a friendly approach, patient with clear communication giving me complete confidence in them throughout the entire process. Every form of contact received an efficient response from the team which I know is rare in this field! I would highly recommend their amazing service to anyone buying and selling. Backhouse made what is usually the most stressful process, smooth and worry free which is impressive!

Dear Melanie, thank you for leaving a great review for our conveyancing team, specifically Rob, Megan and Tegan. We will be sure to pass on your compliments to them and the team, and wish you luck in your new home. Thank you again from the Backhouse team.
I recently engaged Backhouse Solicitors to update our commercial service agreement and was extremely pleased with the service I received. From the outset, the team was responsive, professional, and took the time to explain everything clearly. The work was completed promptly, and I always felt well informed throughout the process. I would particularly like to thank Eleanor for her excellent support. Her prompt replies and insightful suggestions highlighted areas I had not even considered, demonstrating her expertise in commercial law and genuine commitment to achieving the best outcome for her clients. I am very happy with the final agreement and was also impressed by how accurately the costs were estimated from the beginning. I would not hesitate to use Backhouse Solicitors again for any future commercial legal matters and would highly recommend them to others.

Thank you to Nabiha Shariff and the team at Backhouse Solicitors for helping us complete the purchase of our mixed-use commercial property. The transaction involved a number of complexities, but Nabiha was thorough, professional and proactive in ensuring all issues were properly investigated and resolved. Her advice was clear, communication was good, and she worked hard to get the transaction over the line. We are very grateful for all the support and would happily recommend Backhouse Solicitors.
