For around the last 15 years, I have been a client of Walker Foster Solicitors. I have always received excellent service from Keith Hardington and other members of his team. Keith is always on hand for help and advice whenever needed and he is always professional and friendly. I would highly recommend Walker Foster for any legal services.

3rd time I've used this company in recent years, (for 3 different services). Very easy to deal with, always professional but without the usual 'wall of formality' that you tend to get with some Solicitor's. Similarly, with legal document etc. they'll instinctively include additional explanatory wording, in layman's terms, where it's typically needed ! Also, on each occasion, the fee they quoted was what was charged at the end. By far the best company I've used (have tried a number of other's prior).

Careful and supportive from start to finish

We really could not have asked for a better solicitor than Amber Brunton when we were buying a house this summer. She was professional, supportive and wise. She always responded quickly to our questions and was really good at keeping things in proportion for us. She stood up for us when the seller started to be pushy and brought everything through on time so we completed exactly when we needed to. We are not in a rush to do this again- but if we were, we would definitely go back to Amber.

Excellent service provided by Rizzwana

Rizzwana has been incredible in handling my parent's sale and purchase. Rizzwana was very sensitive to our family situation - my parents didn't want to move house but my Dad's declining health condition made a move to a bungalow necessary, and Rizzwana has been patient, diligent, friendly and reliable throughout. From keeping us updated, chasing the other parties, promptly responding to enquiries and advising us throughout. We are very grateful for Rizzwana's hard work on my parents behalf and would highly recommend her.

My wife and I were first time buyers so quite overwhelmed by the house buying process. Jenni acted as a knowledgeable, patient and detailed guide throughout the entire process, we could not have done it without her! We had some difficulties with the seller not providing required information and documentation about the house we were buying. Jenni fought our corner the entire time, providing guidance as to why the documentation was needed and ignoring pressure from the seller until we had it. I could not recommend Jenni more to anyone going through the conveyancing process!

Outstanding service from start to finish! Moving home is notoriously stressful, but having such a proactive solicitor like Amber, made all the difference. She was always quick to respond to my queries, actively chased the rest of the other side to prevent delays, and provided constant reassurance whenever things felt uncertain. If you want a smooth, efficient move with a team that actually keeps you in the loop, look no further.

Sarah Bright and Issy Morgan facilitated my house sale. I actually tracked Sarah down from a previous house purchase that she’d done for me while working at another solicitors, because she is so good. The communication is brilliant. No chasing and leaving multiple messages - replying the same day and doing all they can towards desired timelines. Faultless and will always come back to these guys for as long as they are in their roles!!
