Best solicitor experience so far

We sold and bought and moved in within 2 months!
Despite having annual leave arranged, Lorraine was extremely efficient and available.

Selling a leasehold flat is a minefield. I would choose Lorraine every time to get through a sale with the least stress possible.

Excellent service.

Lorraine is without doubt the best solicitor we have ever used.
Lorraine was always quick in responding to any queries we had and was always supportive. I would highly recommend Lorraine to anyone.

Lorraine is fantastic

This is the second time I have used Lorraine to act on a house sale on my behalf and she is outstanding. Her communication is exceptional - there are not many solicitors that you can always get hold of straight away, but Lorraine is always quick to respond even out of hours.

The only negative about this firm is that the Accounts team did not transfer the sales funds to us on completion! We chased a couple of days later (I though the money was held up by the bank) however it turns out they hadn't made the transfer, so this was disappointing.

Trustworthy, efficient and a joy to work with

I have trusted Lorraine with all of my conveyancing work for almost 10 years. She is brilliant at what she does- she is responsive and deals with complex problems quickly and commercially. I would not hesitate to recommend Lorraine.

Best Solicitors in town

We managed to buy our first house last year, thanks to Burrows Solicitors.
Our solicitor did an amazing work and I highly recommend Burrows Solicitors.
They know what they are doing and they will take you on cruise control through the whole process of buying or selling.

Highly Recommended

Burrows Solicitors just dealt with the sale of my house in Wimbledon. I am extremely impressed with their service. Lorraine Softleigh-Moore, who conducted the sale, was thorough, efficient and understanding.
I am so pleased I chose them.

Fast and thorough service

Katrina acted on our behalf as our solicitor for the purchase of our first buy to let property involving separate representation, and I cannot fault the service she provided. She was thorough in her work, communicated brilliantly, acted promptly on any issues or requests, and was always just a phone call away should we have any questions.

We will most definitely be using her services again in the future

We had an excellent experience dealing with Burrows recently, and in particular with Alexandra.
Quick, polite and concise the process was explained clearly and went without a hitch. I’m a lawyer myself and was grateful for the both the manner in which her advice was delivered as well as for the quality of the advice itself.
We finally have a go-to firm of solicitors in the village!

Burrows solicitors have been just brilliant during our house sale. The one thing that really stood out is their impeccable communication and the speed at which they worked – our sale was complete in just under 7 weeks! Alexandra never left me waiting for an answer and always picked up her calls and emails. She updated me several times a week and just made me feel taken care of. I frankly wish I had more properties to sell just to continue working with Burrows!

I have been meaning to write this review for some time, my fault for not doing it sooner - but I still feel strongly enough to want to write this...over the years I have had mixed experiences in my dealings with members of the legal profession, however I can say without hesitation that the two ladies that work in the Sawbridgeworth office are indeed a credit to their profession.

They were pleasant, courteous, helpful and professional - and equally important they prioritized delivering a good service to me. They both clearly saw me as a customer as well as a client (rather than being treated as a wallet as well as client - which is an attitude some solicitors seem to adopt).

So all in all it was a refreshing experience and I have no hesitation in recommending their services.

I went in to arrange for a decleration of divorced to be proved. Right from the start Ms Barlett was very helpful and arranged for this to be done in a very timely manner. I would recommend Burrows in Sawbridgeworth.
