Horup and the team at Clifford Johnson Solicitors professionally executed the sale of my business. All information and questions were given with a timely response and were excellent in ensuring everything was handled with care quickly to the highest standard. I’d use them again for any other work needed for my business

I would like to share the service I received from Katie. She was quick to respond for my request to arrange power of attorney. Katie also explained any legal jargon with patience and understanding. It gave both myself and family clarity on details we may have been unsure of in the future. I can't thank her enough and will undoubtedly recommend friends and family to contact Katie for an excepitional service. Thank you Katie

Horup khan solicitor

We have had the best experience with cliffordjohnston&co burnage , horup was our solicitor and ensured that our house sale was complete within 3 months. He was very efficient and thorough and helpful in the entire process. Given this was our first home purchase, we were very nervous and unsure of some things and he was very helpful, alongside his team and very upfront with costs from the get go.

Buying a first home can certainly be a nervous time, so we are glad Horup’s efficient, thorough, and helpful guidance—along with our upfront pricing—put you at ease and got everything completed within three months. Congratulations on your new home, and thank you for choosing us.

WOW! Natasha is literally the best solicitor. Super kind, responsive, and easy to get a hold of. She also took the time to explain things to us as it was the first time we sold a house and we needed a bit of extra help. I'm sure we wouldn't have got our sale done in as speedy of a manner if it wasn't for Natasha. Recommend to everyone! (and we literally have!)

We bought and sold our house through CJ Law and had a very positive experience. Horup was great at managing our case and was responsive to emails and queries we had. Horup and the team made us feel at ease, and seemed to work efficiently and quickly compared to other solicitors we've come across. Highly recommend, thank you!

As soon as I knew I was involved in a criminal court case, I contacted Clifford Johnston, my main point of contact being Lina (along with Erik). From the start, they were extremely professional. All communications were very clear and efficient; I was constantly updated, and they responded quickly to my queries. And finally, their efforts resulted in me being very happy with the outcome. I unreservedly recommend this firm.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, Annie. We’re pleased to hear that Lina and Erik provided clear communication, timely support, and a professional service throughout your case.

Responsive and efficient

Chris recently acted for me on the sale of a property and I was extremely impressed throughout. Communication was excellent, advice was practical and straightforward, and he always kept things moving when other parties seemed determined to create delays. I particularly appreciated his no-nonsense approach and ability to explain matters clearly without unnecessary legal jargon. The transaction was not without its challenges, but Chris remained responsive, proactive and focused on getting the deal over the line. I always felt he had a firm grasp of the detail and was acting in my best interests. I would have no hesitation in recommending Chris to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient conveyancing solicitor. An excellent service from start to finish.

Professional approach = Successful application

It was a pleasure to have Naila work on our application. She showed great patience and dedication throughout to ensure successful outcome. Nothing was left to chance - every detail was carefully considered and clearly explained. Her flexibility was outstanding. She was happy to work outside office hours and do extra work to meet urgent deadlines when it really mattered. We strongly recommend Naila for your visa application needs. Thank you, Naila, for being part of this journey. We look forward to the next round of paperwork.

Exceptional Representation and Support

I instructed Robert in relation to a motoring matter and could not have been more impressed with the service I received. Throughout the process, Robert was professional, knowledgeable and reassuring. He explained everything clearly, kept me fully informed and took the time to understand my circumstances. His preparation and representation at court were exceptional, and I genuinely felt that I was in the best possible hands throughout. I am extremely grateful for his support and would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking legal representation.

Enquired about a case 2.5 weeks ago, had to chase back 3 times until finally on the third time I received a call back by the trainee solicitor who mentioned money as the first thing to throw me off like it was an issue and basically explained how we don't take driving cases but however previously they have tried to take on my driving case. More important the tone/ mannerism of the short phone call I had was in a way that they didn't want to engage with me and can't wait to get on with their day.
