Brilliant service: clear, cost-effective and highly efficient

My wife and I needed to make new wills. Simon Acworth responded swiftly to our initial approach. We met, discussed, took his advice and the wills were quickly completed ready for our signatures. A very, very effective service.

Property trust matter

We used Alison Courtenay at Downie & Gadban to ensure an inherited property was correctly registered with the Land Registry following the request in the Will of a family member. Alison guided us through the process with the utmost professionalism and importantly for us, compassion. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alison to anyone needing expert legal support delivered with genuine care.

After a positive experience using Downie & Gadban to write my will, I chose them to do the conveyancing on my house sale and purchase. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Lucy Hunting was so efficient, lovely to deal with and very quick to respond if I needed anything, and Helen was very helpful when I went in to sign documents. Lucy took the trouble to explain everything clearly, and was very proactive in chasing things up for me. I knew I could have total confidence in Lucy's advice.

Simon couldn't have been more helpful with the advice he gave us for sorting our wills out. A subject i knew nothing about, he explained clearly what we needed to do and we got there in the end. Great service and highly recommend.

A client

I had the pleasure of dealing with Robert Small of Downie & Gadban, Solicitors, Alton regarding a litigious Probate matter on behalf of a relative. The advice given was not always what we wanted to hear, however, the reasoned arguments for and against were fully explained and easily understood. I was exceptionally impressed with the legal knowledge, professionalism and courtesy. In particular, not once did I have to chase a phone call or email....if there was likely to be a delay in responding, I was informed...a very rare service from anyone these days! We received a 100% service from all involved.

I was very impressed with the professionalism and customer service I received from Tracey Longdon. Everything went smoothly thanks to Tracey and not forgetting the very helpful Janice Payne. I would therefore absolutely recommend Downie & Gadban Limited.

Tracey provides excellent 5 star service, if there were more stars available I would give more. Her turn around for enquiries, responding to emails/calls and attention to detail is far beyond exceptional. Without Tracey’s dedication during our recent sale we would not have exchanged in a last minute scenario as we did. I can thoroughly recommend Tracey with any house sale, I’m convinced she could manage the sale of a complex listed castle .

I engaged D&G to do the conveyancing for the purchase of my home. They were excellent with communications, prompt responses to questions and made the experience as easy and smooth as it can be. Would highly recommend the team, particularly Tracey and Janice who handled everything for me.
