Hi Destinee, Now that everything is completed, we just wanted to say how pleased we are with the whole process. Your guidance throughout the drafting of our wills has been clear, patient and extremely helpful. You made what could have been a complicated exercise feel straightforward and well‑managed from start to finish. Thank you again for your support — we really appreciate it. Gary & Jayne

Excellent Service with a Smile

My wife and me needed mirror wills however we were also concerned about inherent tax for each other and our kids. Millie talked us both through the subject explaining it so we clearly understood. From the time we contacted Millie she responded quickly, and all her messages where clear. End to end we had 2 visits. There is a friendly atmosphere at the office and we found Millie friendly, warm, effective and good to work with.

Will support and completion

Millie Schofield went above and beyond to support us thru the crucial construction of our wills, making sure we understood fully what each component meant to us and our family post our passing. she was very patient and understanding and went to great lengths to ensure we completed the wills thoroughly. Thank you so much and we would have no doubts at all about recommending Millie and Milners Solictors to help anyone with their own Will completion. Anne & Martin two very satisfied Clients.

We have worked with Giles Ward of Milners for over 20 years, and his work and attention to detail has been excellent. He has worked on several important issues with us whilst we were growing our business. Couldn’t recommend both Giles and Milners Solicitors more.

I recently used Milners Solicitors to buy a property and Kirsty Cronin was my Conveyancing Solicitor. Kirsty was extremely professional, very experienced, efficient, incredibly proactive, competent, great communicator, reliable, trustworthy, supportive, empathetic and friendly. Thank you Kirsty for all of your assistance & help during the purchase of my new home. At no time did I ever feel worried or stressed as everything progressed without any issues or problems whatsoever. Highly recommended!!

Reassuring and professional

Simon and Kate supported me during a very stressful work situation. They focussed on both the facts of the case but my personal wellbeing through the whole process. Very empathetic and provided clear explanation and options throughout.

Highly recommend!

I cannot recommend Chanelle highly enough. She guided me through every stage of purchasing my home with professionalism, patience, and genuine care. She was always available to answer questions, explain things clearly, and provide reassurance when needed. Her attention to detail and dedication made the entire conveyancing process as smooth and stress-free as possible and her communication was excellent throughout. Thank you for all your hard work and support Chanelle. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for conveyancing services and will certainly be recommending her to friends and family.

I cannot thank my Simon & Kate enough for the professionalism, dedication and support they provided throughout what has been an extremely difficult and lengthy process. From the outset, they took the time to listen, understand the complexity of my case and ensure that my concerns were taken seriously. Throughout the matter, I was kept informed, provided with clear advice and always felt that my best interests were being represented. The case involved a significant amount of documentation, investigation material and correspondence spanning several years. Despite this, the team remained thorough, patient and highly professional, taking the time to explain each stage of the process and ensuring I fully understood my options before any decisions were made. What stood out most was their commitment to achieving a fair outcome whilst also recognising the personal impact the situation had on me. Their attention to detail, strategic advice and willingness to challenge issues when necessary gave me confidence during a period when I often felt overwhelmed by the process. I am incredibly grateful for their hard work, expertise and support. The outcome achieved would not have been possible without their guidance and dedication. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone seeking professional, compassionate and highly effective legal representation. Thank you for everything.

I can’t recommend Milners - Close Thornton Solicitors highly enough! They provided an outstanding service when helping my 18-year-old son purchase his first home, taking him from offer to completion in just 11 weeks! From the very beginning, their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive. They kept us informed at every stage, explained everything clearly, and were always quick to respond to any questions we had. What really stood out was how smoothly they managed the entire process—something that can often feel overwhelming, especially for a first-time buyer. They made my son feel confident and reassured throughout, which meant a lot as this was such a big milestone for him. Their dedication and attention to detail ensured everything stayed on track and completed within an impressive timeframe. We’re extremely grateful for their hard work and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and proactive solicitor. Thank you for making this such a positive and stress-free experience!
