I had a great convenyancing experience with Attwells Solicitors. Harpreet Kaila was brilliant dealing with a particularly difficult selling party. She made sure I understood what was happening at each point and that I was clear on any implications. Really appreciated her patience and dilligence - this was a long process! Thank you so much again, Harpreet!

We had lived in our house for 43 years and we had no experience of estate agents or conveyance solicitors. Our Estate agents recommended Charlotte from Attwells Solicitors in Colchester. I preferred email communication so I had a record of conversations. Charlotte really looked after us and there was never a ‘ stupid question’ as far as Charlotte was concerned. There were a few tricky legal parts of our sale and purchase which Charlotte guided us through with her expertise. If I emailed Charlotte about anything, she replied really quickly which is so important in a house sale. I cannot fault her and is a credit to Attwells. I shall miss our daily emails in our journey and I’m happy to say we have now moved into our new home and we are very happy. So if you are considering moving, ask for Charlotte from Attwells. You can’t go wrong!

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear that Charlotte was able to guide you through the trickier parts of your sale and purchase, answer all your questions and keep everything moving with her quick communication. We’re so pleased you’re now settled into your new home and wish you all the very best!

Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased Lily, Harpreet and Fariha could support you throughout your move. Wishing you lots of happiness in your new home!

Quick, reassuring, and completely stress-free

I can't recommend Samuel Welham highly enough. I came to him with a time-sensitive settlement agreement and a very tight deadline, and he understood the seriousness and urgency of my situation straight away. He sorted everything within a day, replied to my emails almost immediately, and explained everything clearly throughout. On top of being so responsive and efficient, he was genuinely kind and reassuring, which made a stressful situation far easier to handle. Thank you, Sam!

Thank you for your feedback, Zhi. We’re happy to hear that Samuel provided such prompt, clear, and reassuring support, especially within a tight deadline. We appreciate your kind comments and recommendation.
