Brilliant experience!

Ahsan was brilliant throughout the whole process. He responded promptly to each email or call I made, and was knowledge and helpful in all his responses. I wouldn't hesitate to use Ahsan again and highly recommend his work to others. I don't have a single issue with anything he did on our behalf throughout the sale of our property. Brilliant!

Outstanding service from Tim and the team at Russell & Russell

We used Russell & Russell to purchase a property at auction. We'd purchased using a bridging loan which ment there was more paperwork and back and forth between various lenders and solicitors. Tim was awlays available and was helpful in constantly replying to emails and calls ensuring we were always informed and assured everything would be OK.

Without Tim, Liz and the team I have no doubt we would not have completed as efficiently as we did

Ahsan khan was polite precise and factual he simply couldn’t have done any more to help us, truly a credit to himself and Russell and Russell. I truly believe Ashan got this over the line, so many thanks to Ahsan.

Karen Molyneux, the probate practitioner who dealt with my case, was keen to progress it and did so in an effective manner. She and the support staff at the Newport Street office in Bolton were friendly and helpful and a pleasure to deal with.

Brilliant service!

We use Russell & Russell when buying a property at auction. Our solicitor, Tim, was absolutely brilliant. He made the whole process really easy and was all happy to answer any questions we had. Tim provided an amazing service and was very knowledgeable. We would 100% recommend Tim and will definitely use him for another property purchase.
