Molly Reek dealt with this matter, both by phone and by letter and in both instances was pleasant and efficient. The fee was appropriate to the amount of work involved. I was therefore more than satisfied with the level of service provided.

Following the recent passing of my parents I asked Latham & Co to help me with applying for grants of probate, conveyancing for the sale of property and setting up a trust fund. In every case I found the level of service I received to be exceptional and would highly recommend this firm to other people.

Following the recent passing of my parents I asked Latham & Co to help me with applying for probate, conveyancing for the sale of property and dealing with a trust fund. In all cases I found their solicitors to be extremely helpful, knowledgeable and clear about what was required. I was able to speak with them on several occasions and received a brilliant standard of service from them. At a very difficult time for me they provided an outstanding service in all respects.

We recently used these for a sale and purchase of our home. Neema represented us. I have to say there are not enough stars available to show how unbelievably brilliant she was. Neema went above and beyond representing us, ensuring we where looked after, saving us money, and speeding the process up. You would be mad not to have her representing you. Thank you so much.

Needed a Notary. Had no idea my problem was going to be quite so complex, but Latham's notary was terrific, explained everything & stayed in touch throughout. The service wasn't cheap but one gets what one pays for.
