Brilliant conveyancing, faith restored in the legal profession

I cannot recommend Alexander and his colleagues at Frank Smith & Co highly enough. From the our initial enquiry to Nora, our first call with Frank who then assigned Alexander (& Tim) to our conveyancing, their professionalism and thoroughness has been outstanding. Alexander was incredibly helpful from start to finish, with attention to detail that was truly second to none. Every step of the process was handled with care and professionalism, and no question ever felt too small or silly — everything was explained clearly and thoroughly. The thoroughness of his approach gave us genuine confidence that we were fully appraised of all the nuances of our purchase. An exceptional service all round which took our property purchase from the realms of impossible to achieved in a matter of weeks.

Fantastic service from Frank Smith & Co especially Alexander

We have recently instructed this firm on a property matter and were looked after brilliantly by the whole company but particularly Alexander. Alexander went beyond being helpful, he was prompt, professional, and patiently explained everything to us. We would not hesitate in using this firm again and recommending their services

We have received excellent service from Frank Smith and Co. Very thorough and helpful and the level of communication has been first class. Total professionalism from the two solicitors, one dealing with house purchase and the other, land sales. Emails were dealt with efficiently and quickly. Highly recommended and we will definitely use again in the future.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience with my solicitor and cannot recommend her highly enough. Amanda was incredibly efficient, responsive, and always more than happy to answer all of my questions, which made the entire process so much easier for me. She handled all the paperwork seamlessly and proactively communicated with the seller’s solicitor to secure all the necessary documents without any delay. The coordination with my mortgage bank was also flawless, resulting in a very smooth and quick fund release. On top of that, their fees were completely transparent and detailed from day one with zero hidden costs. Thanks to her exceptional professionalism, the entire process from making the offer to completion took less than 3 months! If you want a stress-free house purchase, look no further.

We can highly recommend Frank Smith & Co Solicitors. My wife was quite nervous about the process of selling her parents house but Amanda, her assigned solicitor was very professional and kind. The process was handled very smoothly and quickly with no long delays or hold ups. There was a set up front price with no extra hidden costs. We would definitely use them again. All the team that we dealt with from reception desk upwards were friendly and supportive. Hopefully Amanda will still be there if we need to use them again in the future.

New wills

My husband and I needed to make new wills. We had no experience of solicitors in Cheltenham so decided to try Frank Smith & Co after doing an online search. We struck lucky. They accommodated us for both appointments on the ground floor as I have a problem with stairs. Nigel (Solicitor) and Leyla (Paralegal) were extremely helpful and pleasant and gave us extensive advice. The whole process was carried out smoothly and our new wills are now being stored at their offices.
