Excellent service.

From start to finish I was kept well informed to the status of the conveyancing process. All estate agents that we had contact with all stated that Pigotts are 'decent' and 'professional'. I will use their services again in the future.

Would highly recommend Pigotts.

We were selling our property in the UK whilst living abroad. From inial contact, the communication has been amazing. The time difference didn't make it straight forward but Stephen and the team always kept us up to date with the process. It tooka big stress out of the situation knowing that Stephen and his team were on the ball.

Have used Mr Cowell of Pigots Solicitors for conveyancing at least twice. Most recently this year, the whole experience was smooth and the staff all pleasant to deal with. The cost of the process was reasonable, would highly recommend Pigots solicitors.

This is the 5th time I've used a solicitor and Stephen and co. have been the best of the lot. Responses always incredibly prompt and have always chased others to get keep the house move wheels moving. Would not hesitate to recommend - a credit to their profession.

We have just used Pigotts for the second time as conveyancers for our house purchase. They were my first point of call because they were so good on the previous occasion. This time our house search wasn't particularly straightforward, with our first, then our second offers being accepted but falling down. Pigotts were a model of patience and support and Stephen and Jackie saw us through to completion on our 3rd attempt. They are a joy to work with and have on your side.
