Excellent, local solicitor.

"First experience needing to use a solicitor for a court case. Approachable, gave excellent, timely advice for us to follow. Gave realistic expectations of potential outcome. One of the team was always available to support and provide explanations when required. Represented us well with confidence"

A complicated process made easy

I recently purhcased a share of freehold flat in London and the process was complicated both by ambiguities in the governance arrangements of the freehold and last minute problems with the lender. In both cases Andrew from Ashtons did an excellent job in addressing these issues in a quick and effective manner whilst keeping me informed of developments. His calm, professional, and friendly approach combined with his diligence in reviewing the legal arrangements for the purchase made what could have been an incredibly stressful process relatively straightforwards. I would happily recommend Ashton's to anyone on the back of this experience.

Excellent service from start to finish! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a really positive experience with Kate and the team (Kim Clapham, Abby Dalziel, Lauren Briggs and Sienna Vincent) at Ashtons Legal while handling both the sale of our property and the purchase of our new home. From start to finish, the communication was excellent, and their response times were consistently quick. We always felt kept informed and knew we could get in touch whenever we had a question or needed an update. Kate and her team were professional, efficient and reassuring throughout what can be quite a stressful process. They handled everything smoothly and made the whole experience much easier for us. We would definitely recommend Kate and the team at Ashtons Legal to anyone looking for a reliable and professional conveyancing team. Thank you for all your hard work! 😊

A special thank you to Andrew Skuse and Rachel Chilton, who were absolutely fantastic from start to finish.

We are incredibly grateful for all their hard work and would not hesitate to recommend Andrew, Rachel, and the team at Ashtons Legal to anyone looking for a professional, reliable, and supportive legal team. Thank you once again for everything!

We recently used Ashtons Legal for the purchase of our first home and couldn't be happier with the service we received. A special thank you to Kathryn Smith and Sienna Vincent, who were excellent throughout the entire process. They were responsive, efficient, professional and always willing to answer our questions, no matter how small. Communication was clear and timely, and they consistently kept pace with us whenever we needed information or decisions quickly. Buying a house can be stressful, and we'd heard plenty of horror stories from friends and family about conveyancing solicitors. Thankfully, our experience with Ashtons Legal was the complete opposite. Kathryn and Sienna helped keep everything on track, proactively dealt with issues as they arose, and gave us confidence throughout the transaction. The service was worth every penny and we would not hesitate to recommend Ashtons Legal to anyone purchasing a property. Thank you again for helping us secure our new home.

Dear Andrew, We wanted to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude for everything you did to guide us through the conveyancing process for buying our dream home. Having dealt with a handful of solicitors in the past, I can honestly say that you stood head and shoulders above the rest. Your incredibly speedy replies, clear communication and thorough approach made what is often a stressful process feel smooth and manageable from start to finish. Even when obstacles such as required repairs arose, you handled them with clear comments, making the whole process so easy for us. We are so grateful for the care and attention you put into every step - it truly made a world of difference for us. A special thank you also to Tracey for her support throughout; we really appreciated your assistance in keeping everything on track. You both made the conveyancing process so smooth and easy - something I’ve found to be VERY rare in past experiences. Thank you so much again.

Authorship of Wills with Life Interest over House

We took advice to go to Ashtons to have our Wills written because we each wanted our share of our House to be placed in Trust for our grandchildren, but with a Life Interest in the house for the survivor. This provided some safeguard for each of our halves of the house against future unforeseen events (to pass to our children) while at the same time guaranteeing availability of the whole house (or any replacement) as a rent-free domicile for our survivor. I trusted Ashtons to have the Legal Knowledge to ensure this was done and to provide all relevant legal advice (including inheritance advice) and details of options.

Excellent service

We are extremely pleased with how Harriet Richardson dealt with the estate of our late aunt. She was very efficient, professional and competent in dealing with the matter so much so that we have instructed Ashtons conveyancing department to deal with the first registration of our property. We would recommend Harriet to anyone needing assistance.
