Reliable, Efficient and Supportive Conveyancing Team

We used Warner Goodman LLP for conveyancing when buying our first home and again for the sale and purchase of our next, and they were fantastic both times. The journey this time was a long one, with two purchases falling through before we finally found our forever home. Throughout it all, Stacey & Jordan were patient, supportive, and never once made us feel like a nuisance. Communication was excellent, they worked incredibly quickly, and any queries were answered the same or next day. We couldn’t fault their service and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, efficient, and friendly conveyancing solicitors.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this wonderful review, Terri. We’re delighted that Stacey and Jordan could support you through both purchases — especially given the challenges you faced with two previous sales falling through. It means a great deal to know you found our communication prompt, our responses helpful, and our approach patient and supportive throughout the process. We’re very grateful for your recommendation and pleased we could help you reach your forever home. If you ever need assistance in the future, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Fantastic help!

Stacey was wonderful at helping us get the sale over the line in a very short time frame! She and her team kept me up to date with progress, regularly kept in contact to see how we were doing and was fabulous at keeping the otherside on a roll so we completed on time at the very last minute. Cannot express how grateful we are! I would highly recommend Stacey and her team for your house purchase.

Excellent service from Amelia Thripp and the Warner Goodman team We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Amelia Thripp and the entire Warner Goodman team for their excellent support throughout the purchase of our new home. We had a number of matters to work through during the conveyancing process, including source-of-funds requirements, enquiries relating to the property, additional electrical works and coordinating everything with the lender and the seller’s solicitors. Amelia was consistently professional, responsive, patient and reassuring throughout. What particularly stood out to us was the way Amelia took the time to explain things clearly and kept us informed at each important stage. Whenever we had questions or needed clarification, she was approachable and dealt with matters promptly. This gave us confidence throughout what can otherwise be quite a stressful process. We are especially grateful for the way Amelia and the team worked to get everything completed successfully and on schedule. We exchanged contracts and completed on 22 September 2026, and we are now happily in our new home. 🏡🔑 Thank you, Amelia, and everyone at Warner Goodman, for your hard work, professionalism and genuine care throughout our purchase. We would be very happy to recommend your services to anyone looking for a conveyancing team. With sincere thanks, Joshua & Mavis Pratt

This was our first time buying a house and also our first time having dealings with solicitors. I was recommended W.G have since recommended them to other people looking to purchase or sell a property. Everyone in the Fareham branch were so polite and spelled things out for me when I had questions (of which were probably silly at the time!). Every time I rang the phone, it was answered with minimum delay and ever email responded to quickly. There is a stigma around purchasing houses and the legal work being notoriously difficult and frustrating which is defiantly not the case. Many Thanks to Emma and the team!

The whole buying process was much smoother than I had expected, and I truly believe Amelia’s professionalism, dedication and support played a big part in that. I really appreciated the way everything was handled and felt supported throughout the process. Amelia has my sincere appreciation and respect for all her work, and I’m also very grateful to the entire team.

Excellent service!

I had cause to use WG services in respect of estate and inheritance matters and, connected to that, their conveyancing department. Antoinette was wonderful; professional, supportive and patient with a family dealing with the loss of a parent and navigating the maze of will and inheritance matters. I could not have asked for anyone better. Julia was equally professional and helpful with the conveyancing matter. All in all, brilliant people and I would 100% recommend them.
