Delicia worked on the conveyancing of two properties. Throughout the process she was contactable and gave clear communication and guidance. The only negative was that the initial onboarding took time and perseverance to complete.

Emma Provided 106 provisions for our selves as requested by a particul difficult and somewhat contraditiry local authority in Berkshire near reading. How they can make a simple process last for months following there own polices mainly self defeating. Emma work with us to complete this despite the best endeavors of the authority. Completed in the end. But months instead of weeks Fortunately she had the stamina to endure this and our patience to comply.

Very happy with the prompt help from Jas in an auction purchase of a chapel with very short notice - unfortunately we were not successful and Jas let us have the final invoice within 2 weeks of the auction

Expensive conveyancing and very little communication and follow up. Everything was ok in the end but had to chase up on multiple occasions to maintain progress on the property sale. Would not recommend this firm as you pay a premium price for a basic level of service.

Dear Mr Green We’re sorry to hear that you felt the need to leave this review. We value all feedback and would welcome the opportunity to discuss your experience further. If you would like to get in touch with the solicitor who handled your case, they would be more than happy to speak with you directly. Kind regards Sandy (Business Development Manager)

Straight forward conveyancing for house purchase but... Kept to the quote and kept the communication flowing. Had to chase a little as we got close to completion but purchase from offer to completion only took 7.5 weeks.
