    After saying for years that I would never move, I found myself in a situation where I had to move. I had lived in my house for nearly 40 years so it was a wrench. Chantal was very kind and guided me through everything that had to be done. She was very efficient, very prompt in all dealings with her, it was amazing to be able to get through to a real live person without having to press many buttons, a direct line to your solicitor is amazing. I would like to thank her, and all at Whitehead Monckton, for making what could have been a very traumatic experience much easier.

    I would like to extend my enormous gratitude to Chantal for handling the sale of my house and for making the entire process easy and straightforward for me.  Chantal always responded extremely promptly to any query I had, and it was so reassuring to know she was in charge. Selling a house can be stressful, but Chantal was on top of the game at every turn. Highly recommended.

    Commercially astute and a highly competent lawyer.

    It was a pleasure to work with Chantal again on a second property sale. This transaction presented a number of end-stage challenges, but she handled them with clear legal expertise, professionalism and sound commercial judgement throughout. Put simply, she knows exactly which lever to press and when. I felt well advised at every step and was very pleased with the service provided. I would not hesitate to instruct her again in the future.

    Great service!

    We had a very good experience with Whitehead Monckton having them for our cnveyancing work. Our main solicitor Liz was very thorough and efficient as was Cerys, who was the legal secretary training under her. They were both very polite and efficient during a stressful time, on occasion, throughout the process, and were compassionate and helpful !with any queries. Would definitely recommend them. 10/10

    We have been using Whitehead Monckton, specifically working with Marsha, for almost 15 years covering 6 separate transactions. Marsha is detail oriented, pragmatic and easy to deal with. She takes care of all aspects of the deal, highlighting issues early, providing clear solutions when required, whilst quietly ensuring each transaction reaches a satisfactory conclusion. House moves are rarely straightforward and the last this you need is to worry about whether your solicitor is on top of the detail. With Marsha and the team at WM we have the peace of mind that no issue will derail the process, and I will be using her again on my next house purchase - we also recommended them to our neighbours!

    We had the wonderful Charlotte supporting us with our house purchase and flat sale. Charlotte was on hand with any questions we had and chased our answers down in a timely and respectful manner. Charlotte was very knowledgeable and gave us full confidence in the process, which undoubtedly was very stressful but made easier by her understanding. Without Charlotte, we wouldn’t be 4 months into our forever home. Thank you Charlotte and team for all your help. Highly recommend their services.

    I used Whitehead Monkton for a recent sale of my property. I have used Susan Waterman in previous sales/purchases with excellent service and results. Susan Waterman and her assistant Jo Morton are extremely professional, meticulous, understanding, caring and easy to talk to, explaining exactly what was needed and being done. I would certainly use them in future and I do not hesitate to recommend both of them and the Company for whom they work.

      Fantastic Conveyancing Solicitor

      We couldn't ask for a better solicitor to help us purchase our first property. Chantal was proactive and engaged at every stage, making the process easy and stress free. The completion took place quickly and we received our keys right on schedule. WM have good financial crime controls - an intercepted deposit was on our worry list but we needn't have been concerned. I highly recommend WM and Chantal to anyone looking to purchase their residential property.
