Huge thank you to David Hughes

David Hughes was outstanding throughout the sale of our business. He is highly professional, extremely knowledgeable and always made time for our calls whenever we needed reassurance or clarification. His calm approach made a very stressful process feel much more controlled. We would highly recommend David to anyone needing a reliable and supportive solicitor.

Calm, Professional, and Always Supportive

I can’t recommend Amy highly enough. She was an incredible support throughout a long and complex conveyancing process. No matter what challenges or delays arose, Amy always remained calm, professional, and focused on finding solutions. Her communication was excellent, she kept me informed at every stage and explained everything clearly. It was such a relief to know my purchase was in such capable hands. Thank you, Amy, for your patience, perseverance, and professionalism, you truly made a stressful process so much easier.

Excellent conveyancing experience – highly recommend Mira and the team

We recently bought our new home with Mira Patel at Crane & Staples handling our conveyancing, and she has honestly been amazing from start to finish. She was so easy to talk to, always kept us updated, and explained everything clearly along the way, which really helped take the stress out of the process. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and she was super responsive whenever we had questions. A big thank you as well to Manish for all his help behind the scenes! It’s been such a pleasure working with both of them. We’re finally settling into our new home and so grateful for Mira’s hard work and patience throughout. Would 100% recommend Mira and the team to anyone buying or selling - you’ll be in safe hands!

HOUSE PURCHASE CONVEYENCING

It was a matter of extreme importance to our family that we were able to achieve a very fast exchange. I have used Crane & Staples previously and have always found them to offer an excellent service. It was no different this time. Amy Tapping was exemplary, she is knowledgeable, thorough, diligent and guided us through the process seamlessly, with kindness and patience.

We were very impressed with the service we received during the sale process. They were very thorough and on top of everything. Was a bit disappointed to receive only an email telling us that the sale had gone through, rather than a telephone call. It was our buyer who informed us it had completed. Would definitely use their services again.

We recently moved home and engaged Crane & Staples to effect all the conveyancing required etc. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Our requirements were managed by Kuldip Chima, Senior Associate Solicitors at C&S, who we found exceptional in her professionalism, attention to detail, and speed of response. The advice she provided was a great asset. We also found C&S fees very competitive. As such, we will now be using Crane & Staples for all our future requirements.

Fantastic Family Lawyer

Highly recommended firm and in particular, Natasha Khakhar who was a pillar of strength for me during the most difficult time in my life. Very supportive and knowledgeable in her field. Extremely hardworking and dedicated to her work. Often works very late into the night to get the work done. Thank you Natasha and the team at Crane and Staples.

Complex delayed financial remedy case

This was a complex and protracted case of a delayed financial remedy application several years after divorce and previous settlement. Natasha supported me all the way with her extensive knowledge of family law and took advice from senior counsel when needed. She was always prompt in responding to any issues and comprehensive in her preparation of documents for court. She maintained a calm, non-confrontational approach when dealing with the other side to help resolve the matter which settled without the need for a final hearing. I couldn’t have wished for a better solicitor.

Lease Extension

I recently used Bonnie as my solicitor to help extend the lease on my flat, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. Bonnie was incredibly informative from start to finish, taking the time to explain every step of the process in clear, simple terms. She kept me up to date with all the relevant information and made sure I had every form and detail I needed. What I appreciated most was how supported I felt—Bonnie truly held my hand throughout the entire process, turning what could have been a stressful experience into a smooth and manageable one. Her professionalism, communication, and care were outstanding. I highly recommend Bonnie to anyone needing a reliable and knowledgeable solicitor.
