We used Martin Tolhurst Solicitors in Longfield Kent. They sorted out my late parents estate after we moved from another local solicitors. Nothing was too much trouble, they kept us informed and updated regularly. Sarah Begley and her Team were absolutely fantastic even when things were not straight forward their professionalism was amazing. They also arranged with their other branch the conveyancing of the sale of my parents property. Every hiccup (there were a few along the way) was dealt with to the highest standard. I would 100 percent recommend them.

The loss of a loved one is a deeply profound experience. When faced with the shock and distress of a Will being challenged, together with demands for the keys to their property and account details even before the funeral, it would be easy to make the wrong choice when seeking legal representation. Fortunately, I turned to Mr Giles Dobson, who came recommended by a friend. Mr Dobson helped us navigate one of the most testing and unjustified situations our family has ever faced. It was a cost I could certainly have done without, but I never had a panic attack every time an invoice arrived because the billing was always clear and easy to understand. As with any legal matter, I would encourage anyone to carry out their own research alongside their solicitor's advice. This was particularly important in our case, as some aspects required culturally competent and nuanced consideration. Mr Dobson never made me feel that raising these issues was a burden. He remained receptive to the information and research I shared, and I will always appreciate that. To me, it is the sign of someone who continues to learn and develop professionally, and that can only make them a better solicitor. Most importantly, Mr Dobson did not add to the burden of one of the most difficult periods of my life following a bereavement. He remained calm, strategic, thorough and humane throughout. For that, I remain sincerely grateful and would recommend him without reservation.

I have used Martin Tolhurst for many years for my families Will, Trusts etc. On this occasion I required a deed of variation. This was completed quickly and efficiently from my first phone call to the office and completion of the document by Sarah Begley. She was easy to talk to but also professional.

Lucy Benning dealt with a re-write of our original wills that Martin Tolhurst first done over 40yrs ago. Naturally the price is far more than at that time, but we thought it better to go back to our original solicitors to carry this out. Lucy sat with us and got to the point of true reflection to our wishes. Thank you.

Having had a previous bad experience with Martin Tolhurst, we were reluctant to use them, but our Estate Agent selling our parents property through probate assured us that they had a great long working relationship with this solicitor, so against our better judgement we agreed to us them. The solicitor we were allocated at the start of the process made us realise why we had reservations about using Martin Tolhurst in the first place, we found ourselves constantly chasing her for information, we would leave telephone messages which she never returned and emails which she ignored until Friday just as she was leaving for the weekend which meant we could not contact her again until the Monday. Nearing the end of the conveyancing we were contacted by a different solicitor within the firm who informed us that the previous person had left that day and that she was now taking over, the new person was actually efficient in her duties and the sale completed without any issues. Because of our experience with the first solicitor we can not give Martin Tolhurst a great review and should we require a solicitor in the future we certainly would not choose Martin Tolhurst.
Thanks for taking the time to leave your review, David and I’m sorry to hear how frustrating the earlier part of your experience was. We understand how important clear communication and timely updates are, particularly during a probate sale and it’s disappointing to read that you felt you had to repeatedly chase for responses and were left without the support you should have received. We do appreciate you recognising that matters improved once the file was reassigned and that the transaction then completed smoothly. We’d welcome the opportunity to look into what happened and learn from it. If you’re willing, please contact us with the property address (or the best reference you have) and the name of the fee earner(s) involved, so we can review the file and respond properly. You can reach us via our main office contact details or send a message with your preferred contact number and we’ll arrange a call. Thank you again for your feedback, it’s taken seriously and we’re sorry we didn’t get it right from the start. Sam Martin Tolhurst Solicitors Online Team
Thank you Nathan (Hidson) for preparing my Will. I appreciate the calm and friendly manner in which you helped me through the drafting process, explaining it all in plain English, providing clarity on the legal language.

I cannot recommend Georgina Vanden Berghe and the team at Martin Tolhurst highly enough. We were on a very tight timeline to get our wills completed, and despite being busy, it felt like she dropped everything to make sure our deadlines were met. Although our wills themselves were fairly straightforward, the Inheritance Tax (IHT) implications were much more complex. Over the course of two meetings and numerous emails, she took the time to meticulously collate all the necessary data and present her findings in a clear, accessible way. She broke down complex legal and tax terms effortlessly. I have never dealt with a solicitor who was so down-to-earth, open, honest, and approachable. Her assistant was also incredibly friendly and efficient, ensuring the entire process ran seamlessly. An outstanding, stress-free experience from start to finish.

Gemma and the team helped with the sale of my late Father-in-law house. They came recommended through the estate agents who were absolutely dire and complete charlatans. So it was a pleasant surprise the solicitors they recommended were stars. thank you so much for being the only decent people in this process.

Abbie Oswald is a complete professional. Not only is she an expert in her field, but she actually answers the phone! With her expert guidance (and patience!), we completed on the purchase of our new home in 8 weeks, and thanks to Abbie, it went as smoothly as is possible. I would highly recommend Abbie Oswald from Martin Tolhurst Solicitors, Ashford office.

I recently purchased an apartment and used Martin Tolhurst Solicitors and I couldn't be happier with the service. From start to finish the team were efficient, friendly and very thorough. Communication was excellent — I always knew where things were up to and any queries were answered quickly. > They made the whole conveyancing process straightforward and stress-free. Highly recommend to anyone buying in the Rochester / Medway area. Special thanks to Richard Coulter

I cannot recommend Martin Tolhurst Solicitors highly enough, and in particular Danielle Adlington and Emily Pope, who handled the conveyancing on the sale of my home. This was far from a straightforward sale. It ran alongside a number of difficult matters and was held up for months by a dispute at the Land Registry. Throughout it all, Danielle and Emily were calm, thorough and completely on top of every detail. They kept me informed at every stage, explained clearly what was happening and what my options were, and dealt promptly with the Land Registry, the buyers' solicitors and the lender. Just as important, they were kind. At a very stressful time they were patient with my many questions and always made me feel that my matter mattered to them. Their persistence is a large part of why the sale got over the line. Thank you, Danielle and Emily. I would not hesitate to use the firm again or to recommend you to friends and family.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! It was a pleasure to act for you on your matter. We really appreciate you taking the time to leave this review. Thank you again. Ilaria Martin Tolhurst Solicitors Online Team
Gemma Nie was fantastic throughout the entire process of selling my leasehold property. The sale went through within 4 months. She was incredibly responsive, and I could always get through to her on the phone whenever I needed to. She also acknowledged and responded to emails very efficiently, keeping me fully informed every step of the way. I always knew exactly what was happening and felt at ease knowing she had everything she needed from me. Whenever I was unsure about anything, she clearly explained what was required, making the whole process straightforward and stress-free. If you’re weighing up your options when choosing a solicitor, I would 100% recommend Martin Tolhurst and, in particular, Gemma Nie. Thank you so much for all your help and support!
