Our main contact was Mr David Barton for both transactions. David was always helpful and knowledgeable about both items. Although there were tight margins around completion, everything worked out well in the end, and on time. I would not hesitate to use them again.

Buying and selling houses is a stressful time but working again with Sue Hartley I knew I would be in good hands, and indeed I was. As with this process there can be some glitches along the way but these were dealt with quickly and to take away any concerns in delays to the agreed completion date. I would be quite happy to recommend to others needing this service.

A huge thank you to Rizzwana Bashir @Walker Foster solicitors who I can whole heartedly say is highly competent, highly professional and will go beyond her role to get the job done. Despite some issues from the sellers side, Rizzwana persevered remaining professional and got the work done as quick as she could. Rizzwana always reponded to my phone calls and/or emails promptly. Even responded to email outside of work hours. Rizzwana's dedication and commitment towards me as her client was much more than expected! I would defo recommend and will not give a second thought to using Rizzwana again if needed!
A representative from Walker Foster Limited responded to this review on 11 January, 2024:
Thank you so much for your very kind review Sahida. We are delighted that you have had such a positive experience from Rizzwana and if there is anything else we can do for you, do please let us know.
