Settlement Agreement
Needing a solicitor to complete paperwork at short notice for my settlement agreement, I found Giles Dobson to be extremely helpful and professional and will certainly use again.

Professional,Friendly,Fast and accurate.
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Molly Newland at Martin Tolhurst Solicitors for the conveyancing of our recent home purchase, and we couldn’t be more impressed.
From start to finish, Molly was friendly, approachable, and incredibly helpful. Her communication was always clear and timely, and she made what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and manageable.
What really stood out was how fast and accurate she was—everything was handled with great efficiency and attention to detail. We always felt confident that we were in safe hands.
We’re truly grateful for her professionalism and dedication, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and outstanding conveyancing solicitor.
Thank you so much, Molly!

Extending your Lease

Lease extension
Contacted my property landlord and obtained a figure to extend the lease on my flat in early April 2025. Then consulted Money Saving Expert website regards finding legal representation 15/4/2025. It provided a list of trusted solicitors including Martin Tolhurst.
I registered on the ALEP site and subsequently received a number of responses. Andrew Ashley-Edwards who is a partner at Martin Tolhurst solicitors rang me 16/4 and was very helpful to the point I decided to ask his firm to act on my behalf in the process.
I was then passed on to his colleague Surinder Ruprai and by 23rd June the lease extension has been completed and I now have peace of mind. Surinder has been prompt, approachable, professional, friendly throughout. No hidden charges, no asking for forms to be resent because they have been lost. No struggling to remember who you are in conversations, no sense that your bothering them. Its been as pleasant and pain free an experience as I could have possibly hoped for. If I ever sell my property I will ask Surinder / Martin Tolhurst to act as conveyancers and I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation.

Divorce
Grateful to Hannah and the staff at Martin Tolhurst. Started divorce proceedings as a LIP in Jan 2024, instructed Hannah at start of 2025 as needed legal counsel. Hannah talked me through each stage and never served me away from what I was asking for. Emails have been acknowledged and replied to, calls have been replied to and the constant worry as to outcome was not needed as we were successful in court.
High recommend.

Amazing service, would definitely recommend.
Martin Tolhurst solicitors assisted me when my marriage broke down, helping me to finalise a consent order, as well as my divorce. Hannah and her team were so supportive and helpful, in what was a very stressful time for myself and my children. Hannah especially went above and beyond to give me the best advice, and ultimately helped me settle the marriage finances and divorce, without the need for drawn out, costly court proceedings. I was updated at every stage, and responses were very efficient. I am forever grateful.
