An excellent experience throughout

Thackray Williams was recommended by my estate agent and I was not disappointed. From start to finish the communication was excellent. All the processes were clearly explained and phone calls were always returned quickly. I was so grateful to Andrew Ringham for all his help throughout the sale and purchase. He helped me remain calm through a few hiccups along the way. Thanks also to Claire Hodge. All in all, highly recommended.

I have used Thackray Williams for over twenty five years. For this particular transaction I dealt with Alisha Maidment. Considering my buyers, let’s say ‘interesting’ solicitor, Alisha handled the entire process with extreme professionalism and patience. Her knowledge was superb, along with her personable manner - thank you Alisha, very much.

Fantastic experience

Very professional and responsive conveyencing service from Manaal at Thackray Williams. Manaal was supportive, very prompt and clear in her communication and very effective during what was a complicated and long leasehold sale.

Excellent service, delighted with the personal contact and efficiency

Excellent advice, very proactive and a very smooth sale thanks to our Solicitor, Andrew Ringham. From start to finish we were kept informed, the process was very speedy and efficient which was excellent as our buyers had a target date in mind from the beginning which thanks to Andrew and team we were able to meet. We had a couple of tricky questions from the buyer's solicitors and we received excellent advice and guidance. Having bought and sold 4 properties over the years, this was by far the best and most efficient service and the best communication we have encountered to date and we would highly recommend Thackray Williams and Andrew Ringham in particular.

Poor service. This firm had previously prepared our wills (my husband and I) when they were in Beckenham. We asked to book an appointment to go back to review the wills and they booked us in at their Bromley office. 1 week later I received a call from them saying they were unable to keep the appointment as they were “at capacity”. Even though we were existing clients we have had to follow up with a new firm of solicitors.

We had the pleasure of working with Marcus Beavis as our solicitor during the process of purchasing our home, and we couldn’t have asked for a more professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated solicitor. From start to finish, Marcus was exceptional, guiding us through every step of the transaction with clarity and expertise. His attention to detail ensured that all the legal documents were thoroughly reviewed, and he left no stone unturned when it came to ensuring that the purchase was in our best interest.

What truly stood out was Marcus’s communication throughout the entire process. He was always quick to respond to my questions, providing thoughtful explanations and making what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. His proactive approach kept everything moving forward efficiently, and I always felt confident that my case was in the best possible hands.

Marcus goes above and beyond, not only in his legal acumen but also in his personable and reassuring manner. Thanks to his dedication, I was able to navigate the complexities of purchasing a home with ease and peace of mind. I highly recommend Marcus and Thackray Williams to anyone seeking a reliable and top-notch solicitor for their property transactions. His expertise, professionalism, and client care are second to none!

Massive thanks to Lauren Osborne and Zoe Hitchcock also, who were fantastic in Marcus’s absence!

Thanks a bunch team at Thackray Williams, we will definitely be using you again!
