Brilliant

We had the help of Laura and her team in purchasing our first home. Laura was always very responsive to our emails, often replying within a matter of hours, which was reassuring for us. Getting quick answers to any queries along the way meant we were able to proceed with the sale at a great pace and move in to our first home. Laura was thorough and went above and beyond when we needed to e.g. ask her to pass on questions to the sellers. We also appreciated that Biscoes offer a first home buyer discount. Thank you Laura!

Fantastic solicitor

Sarah at Biscoes solicitor has been fantastic from the beginning of the transaction right up to today when we have exchanged contracts on our new development project. She has vast knowledge, experience and great attitude to all aspects of property law and conveyancing. It is very rare in this day and age with the internet to find a solicitor that is very old school and understands all aspects of her job. The price we paid was very reasonable if you want cheap hire a monkey or perhaps use artificial intelligence… Would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her!

Excellent, friendly, proffessional

Sarah and her legal secretary Claire were amazing with both the sale of my property and the purchase of my new property. Throughout the entire process they they were prompt with all aspects of the process which needed to be completed and were extremely communicative. While others in the chain’s solicitors delayed and failed to respond Sarah was on top of everything. I could not be more happy with the service I received.

We appointed David Clarke at Biscoes, Portsmouth, last June to deal with the conveyancing of the sale of our late Father’s Estate. From the first day until the momentous day of completion, David and his team have been phenomenal in every aspect. Professional, always prepared to think out of the box- nothing was too much trouble. David kept us informed every step of the way on what, at times, was a difficult journey for all concerned. Despite that, he always created a positive atmosphere, so you knew that any problems would be resolved and resolved quickly. I cannot thank David enough for everything he has done. Without any hesitation whatsoever, I would strongly recommend anyone looking for a Solicitor to deal with their conveyancing needs, to consider David at Biscoes first. He is an excellent ambassador for the business. 😊😊😊😊😊

Biscoes Legal Services Limited

Dear Mark, Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that David and our team provided phenomenal service throughout the conveyancing process. Your recommendation means a lot to us. Best regards, Biscoes Legal Services Limited

Contract Law

The value was surprisng

I went in for mortgage personal guarantee work. This is something that makes me quite jaded because, for residential, it is now a very expensive rubber-stamp process for me. A necessary evil. This particular work was a mixed-use purchase, however. It had some nuance in the terms I didn't pick up. Lora made me focus on some clauses that gave me concern, and I refused to sign as a result. Lora said I could come back for free if the specific issue was resolved, which was a pleasant surprise. After asking the lender to change, I ultimately backed out of the purchase altogether. Laura's input was key to this, and therefore her contribution was very valuable to me. The consultation was good value.

Family Law Specialist with complex cases

Anthony Bailey is by far a outstanding Family Law specialists dealt with complex cases. Involving domestic abuse. At the start feeling like deer inheadlights, at the most vunerable time of our lives. A. Bailey represented my family, through the process A. Bailey thorougly managed our case, and representation. He had great communication all round and tasked multiple staff tgroughout the complex case and everything was communicated effectivley. Thilese cases where long lengthy process, with deadlines and hurdles along the way, but A Bailey continued to meet all deadlines and keep up to date with each stage of the process. He even took the time when space was available to discuss the processes. He is a totally trust worthy solicitor. He is an approchable person for vunerable people. Extremley proffessional and has knowledge of complex cases involving child welfare/safegaurding/financial aspects/criminal/divorce. I highly rexcomend A. Bailey. And can never express enough garitude for the hard work and time he put into the matters, and ensuring the best outcome out of a difficult circumastances that was achievable. And also remaining realistic. Thankyou for bringing families hope and saftey.
