David Barney & Company LLP

Dear Mark and Team, Now that we’ve finally settled into our new home, we wanted to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude for everything you have done for us throughout the sale and purchase process. As this is our first time to sell and buy a new house, we knew very little about what to expect, and naturally had lots of questions along the way. From the very beginning, you and your team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and always quick to respond to our emails and queries. Your patience in guiding us through each stage of the process gave us reassurance and confidence throughout what could have been a very stressful experience. Despite the complexities of selling and buying at the same time, everything was handled so smoothly and efficiently. We truly appreciated your clear communication, attention to detail, and dedication to keeping everything moving forward. Thank you again, Mark, to Lauren and to every member of your team, for your outstanding service and hard work. We genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we are so grateful for your support in helping us complete this exciting new chapter. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your services to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and responsive solicitor.

Thank you Raissa for the lovely feedback. We are pleased that you are happy with the service received and hope that you are very happy in your new home!

This is the second time that I have engaged Lauren to assist with conveyancing work. Once again she was really responsive to any questions or queries and her communication was great throughout the whole process, constantly keeping us updated and striving to complete as quickly and efficiently as possible. Fees were very reasonable. Would highly recommend.

Thank you Michael for not only using us again for your property transaction but also for the great feedback! So pleased to hear that you are happy with the service you received and that you would recommend us!

Beverly Davison dealt with the sale of our Hertfordshire home. She leads a team of well-organised, good communicators, supportive of their clients. Beverly’s professional support and expertise during what turned out to be a ‘difficult’ house sale was exemplary of the best one hopes for from one’s solicitor . Her calm, her level-headedness kept us from intemperately casting baby-with-bath-water to the four winds on more than a couple of occasions. We are especially grateful for her persuasive professional skills during a week of demanding turmoil, which got the sale across the line.

What a journey you have both had (quite literally). Through desperate times, you kept your dry humour which certainly helped me get through it! All the best for your next chapter.

Helpful, efficient and professional company. Used for moving house twice now over the years. Thoroughly recommend.

We worked with Beverly and the team at David Barney for the sale of our property and we couldn't be happier. This was our first time selling and we had so many questions. Things cropped up, as they do, and Beverley and her team were always willing to talk us through and provide guidance on what we could expect either way. I have never had such a great experience with a solicitors firm, they came recommended to us and we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone else.

It was an absolute pleasure working with you and I am sorry that you experienced so many difficulties. I hope you are settling into your new home

Ignore any poor reviews, these guys are fantastic - Lauren Jarmain-Chew in particular. Incredibly efficient and professional, and a completely different experience to my last house purchase. I never had to chase them to get something done, which I didn't know was possible with a conveyancer! Would highly recommend.

I appointed David Barney and Co to handle both the purchase of my new property and the sale of my existing one, and I couldn't be more impressed with the service I received from start to finish. Communication was second to none and the team kept me fully informed at every stage, promptly answering any questions I had. In what can often be a stressful and drawn-out process — especially completing on both properties the same day — they made the whole thing feel smooth and straightforward. I always knew the next steps which gave me real peace of mind. Beverly and Lauren were especially helpful and an absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of conveyancing and will definitely use them for my next move.

We purchased our first house ten years ago. Our solicitor then was uncommunicative; didn't have enough staff to cover and our purchase took close to six months in a short chain - everyone agreed that our solicitor then was what kept up the entire chain. Dealing with Beverly, Mark and the rest of the team was a very refreshing change. All queries were responded to promptly and everyone involved seemed to know exactly what was going on with our sale/purchase. We again found ourselves in a relatively short chain - but this time everything was done in just over 8 weeks. The various estate agents we spoke to predicted about 12 weeks at best so we were quite impressed. We would again like to thank the team for this expediency and their professionalism.

Absolutely fantastic. My partner and I recently purchased our first home - very much like rabbits caught in headlights with very little knowledge of the conveyancing process. Our purchase was somewhat more complex, made difficult by some mortgage issues, than we had initially hoped. Despite the absolute headache, Mark, Sam, Stevie-Jean and the rest of the team were always on tap to reassure us and answer any questions. Nothing was too much fuss and there was always someone on the end of the phone. I cannot recommend Mark and his team enough, they are incredible efficient, effective and diligent. We wouldn’t think twice to employ their services again. Thank you David Barney and Co for making our first home purchasing experience a positive one! Oh and we completed at 9AM! Their finance department are on it!

We experienced fantastic service from start to finish from David Barney & Co Solicitors and we cannot recommend them enough! Mark, Beverly and the team helped us with buying our first home. Everything was made clear from start to finish and communication was fantastic. We had lots of questions along the way and every question was answered and it took the stress out of it for us and we felt confident in knowing the next steps. Excellent service, thank you! Highly recommend 😊
