"Knocker and Foskett were both proactive, positive and efficient in all my dealings. I felt valued and supported especially when under extreme difficulty to complete the process. Even after the completion, further swift action was required to avoid any further set backs. Thanks"

Excellent service

I was very impressed with Chris Hugo and Knocker & Foskett in general with their very professional but personal and friendly service. Processes were clearly explained throughout and time given to reassure my concerns.

Very poor experience

I would strongly advise prospective clients to exercise caution before instructing this firm. In my experience, additional work was carried out without my authorisation, resulting in unexpected costs. When I raised concerns about this, rather than addressing the issues constructively, I received threats of legal action from Chris Hugo, a Partner at the firm. I found this approach to be intimidating, unprofessional, and wholly inappropriate in the context of a solicitor-client relationship. I instructed this firm in good faith and expected transparency, clear communication, and a professional response to legitimate concerns. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. Based on my experience, I would not use this firm again and would recommend that anyone seeking professional, client-focused legal representation considers alternative solicitors.

It is hard to summarise Nicola’s exceptional service, efficiencies, support and expertise. Nicola underpinned her memorising knowledge, experience and professionalism with compassion, patience and understanding, readily available to help me through my very stressful seperation. 11/10, I cannot recommend Nicola any stronger so frankly procure her services before your ex. does!

I recently worked with Knocker and Foskett for the purchase of my first property, and I can't recommend them enough. Amy was absolutely amazing—she went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. She was always available to answer my questions and provided clear, professional guidance throughout the entire process. If you're looking for a solicitor who truly cares about their clients, Amy and the team at Knocker and Foskett are the best choice!

I've used K&F for the last 30 years on matters across various departments and will continue to do so. Their work is of a high standard and their fees charged are fair and reasonable. Most recently Damien Jones did a great job in handling a probate matter for me.

I can’t praise this professional firm enough. Special thanks to Rob Spokoini for exceeding my expectations when dealing with the refinancing and lease amendment of my dental practice. I have dealt with numerous solicitors during the past 16 years and can say with confidence that Knocker and Foskett are by far the most professional team among all of them and I consider myself lucky for having found them.
