House purchase and sale

I have been fortunate enough to buy and sell several houses over the years. But never have I encountered so many challenges as my recent move. Despite all the set backs , Elizabeth and Maddie at 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 to them and all the team at Knocker and Foskett, we are happy and loving our forever home in Hove.

Outstanding experience

Felicity (Williams), head of residential conveyancing, offered a wonderfully helpful, efficient and friendly service, both in the selling of our home and the purchase of my new flat. Assisted by her secretary Emily (Bulford), she helped us through ongoing difficulties and always went the extra mile, giving clear explanations and guidance with a personal touch. Would recommend Felicity to anyone. Grateful client!.

Sle and purchase

Elizabeth and Maddie made a very complicated, protracted and challenging sale happen. Throughout the process I had regular, clear and concise information. Great value for money too. I cannot thank them enough for making our dream home come true.

We had Elizabeth appointed to us for the conveyancing for our house purchase and sale (completed July 2020). Elizabeth was extremely thorough in her work, clear and concise in her communication, readily available on phone and email and friendly and helpful throughout. There was not one single mistake or typo made anywhere throughout the process and we feel our case was in the best possible hands with her. We would highly recommend Elizabeth for your conveyancing or other legal needs. The only thing that would have improved the service would be to have online documentation signing capabilities as I know some other firms have, since there is a lot of form filling & scanning involved, at least in the house purchase process (not so great if you have an unreliable printer as we do!).

Communicative and caring

Great experience, specifically with Chris Hugo. Effective, communicative but above all empathetic in a highly stressful situation. Desired outcome achieved. Would highly recommend.

Fair Settlement

I was wrongly dismissed which was very upsetting. Chris Hugo gave me excellent advice and helped me exit with a fair settlement. It was good to have him on my side during a very difficult time.

We are extremely grateful for Damien Jones’ professionalism in helping us to understand what was required for our Wills as we needed to include a Trust, set up for our son who is Autistic with learning difficulties. It is a huge relief to know we have safely prepared the future for both our daughter and our son when we can no longer be there for them. The whole procedure was organised swiftly and safely by the receptionist and Damien’s Secretary, to ensure we were able to complete our Wills during the Covid restrictions. All phone calls and signing of the Wills were carried out with great professionalism, care and helpful manner. We were also in awe of the building when safely sitting in the room to sign our Wills. The whole procedure was a pleasure. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Damien.
