Great easy to use Service

As first time sellers, Sophie Taylor was our Conveyancer, we had clear communications from start to finish and completed in a timely manner. Emails sent were responded to quickly.

Great solicitor experience

My solicitor at Bannister Preston was Sophie Taylor and she was a massive help throughout a long and complex sale. Initially I had support from Sophie for a sale in 2025 which was unfortunately a long and hard process due to the other solicitor and buyer. When I had the news I was selling the property again at this start of this year, I notified Sophie and she was a great help from start to finish. This process seemed to run so smoothly and everything appeared to be actioned immediately. The sale wouldn’t have happened without her help so thank-you!

I feel Lauren really did do a super job for us. Prompt in replying; helpful; friendly and professional- just what we needed in a long and tricky housing chain. We’re loving it where we’ve moved to. Thanks again Lauren.

Absolutely first class service

My entire experience with Bannister Preston has been excellent from start to finish. Nick Earp, in particular, has been an absolute breath of fresh air. He was incredibly responsive, proactive, and always willing to help, working tirelessly to keep all parties moving and ensure the process progressed as smoothly as possible. I wouldn't hesitate to use Nick again for any future conveyancing work, and I've already recommended him to friends and family. I can't thank him enough for making a stressful process feel incredibly well managed.

Wow.Wow.Wow!!! Moved to Bannister Preston, specifically David Carter Hughes following a poor experience with another conveyancer. David spoke to me directly at initial contact, explained the fees upfront& ran through their processes. His clarity gave me confidence to proceed with the firm. I was looked after both in terms of the sale of my property & the purchase of another. When my original purchase fell through at the last hurdle David assured me that he would get me into my new home efficiently. He was true to his word & backed by the team including Isabelle, Sarah, Sonia, Margaret. They held my hand through the whole thing & kept me informed throughout. I would recommend them to anyone for a professional, efficient service. I genuinely felt that they understood the stresses & strains & went out of their way to minimise the impact. I felt they all cared about my experience & the provision of the best service. Thank you to David & the team.

We used Bannister Preston as our solicitor to sell our old property, and buy our new house. I cannot recommend them enough. Very thorough and efficient. Excellent communication. Even helped to solve an issue after we had completed on our new property. 10/10 and would use again in a heart beat.

Thank you, Catherine, for your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you received such thorough and efficient service from the team during both your sale and purchase.
