Friendly.

Right from our first meeting, we were treated with professionalism and compassion. The whole process went through smoothly and quickly.
Couldn't wish for a better person than Vickie Ingamells to deal with.

There were a few hurdles to negotiate, due to the previous owners not taking care of the property, but we got there.

Very efficient and good communication

The case Steven Dowse dealt with was a very complicated probate and business lease then sale. It was certainly far from straightforward in many ways. He was good in explaining the legal side of things and responded to enquiries without huge delays. He helped me past the finish line at a time of distress following the death of my family members and the sale of their business of which I had no involvement until their death.
