Ultra efficient and the consummate professional

The whole house selling and buying experience through Tim was as stress free and simple as it ever can be. Tim was always very professional, courteous and prompt to respond to queries, send documents on and guide me through the process where necessary. If every conveyancing firm had people as thorough as Tim the whole house buying process would be a breeze. I would not hesitate in recommending Tim for conveyancing work of any description. A credit to Russell Russell!!

Tim Lea-Hare has acted for me twice in recent months and on both occasions has provided an all round exceptional service. Tim, together with his colleague, Leigh, are a credit to their profession. I will undoubtedly use in future.

Ahsan always took my calls and emailed relevant information when requested .
