"I can’t recommend Mark at DFA Law highly enough. He was absolutely brilliant throughout my house sale! Efficient, thorough, and completely on top of every detail. We had some tricky moments and challenges within the chain, but Mark handled everything calmly and professionally,"

A first rate service. Everything was complete in a professional and timely way to ensure that our Power of Attorney documents were written and registered. We have also used DFA Law for a house sale and purchase as well as for preparing our Wills and these services were also undertaken in the same efficient and professional manner.

Thank you for your kind feedback. We’re pleased to hear you found our team friendly and professional, and Rachel’s advice clear and helpful.
DFA Law helped me settle my late Mother's Estate. Since I live outside the UK their expertise and professionalism was very much appreciated. They made completing the necessary HMRC and probate paperwork very straightforward. They also assisted with the sale of my Mother's house. I'm very grateful to Hannah and all her staff for their work on my behalf.
It was a pleasure to interact with Katharine as she sensitively handled the administration of our late mother's estate. I can highly recommend DFA Law.
Thank you for your kind recommendation. We are pleased you felt supported by Katharine during a difficult time.
I recently used DFA Law for a family matter (probate and estate administration) and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. From the very first call, the team was professional, approachable and clear in explaining everything. My solicitor took the time to understand the full picture, kept me updated regularly, and was realistic about timelines and costs. In what is often a stressful and emotional process, they made it feel manageable and straightforward. The firm has clearly been around for a long time (over 180 years!) but they’re not old-fashioned in their approach — everything was handled efficiently with modern communication (email, phone, and secure portal).I particularly appreciated their straightforward fees and no surprise bills. Would definitely recommend DFA Law to anyone in Northamptonshire needing reliable solicitors for wills, probate, family law, or property matters. Highly recommended.
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We’re pleased we could support you clearly and sensitively during what can be a difficult process.
Slow to get things done. Needed to chase them up repeatedly following a bereavement. Paid the best part of £10k for an estate totaling just over £200k. Not bad work for a few dozen emails, a zoom call and calculations for my parents estate.
I am sorry to read your comments and would like to look into this for you. If you can please provide your full name by email: info@dfalaw.co.uk we will review the matter and one of the management team will be in touch.
Excellent service in writing new will and making other arrangements in anticiaption of care costs coming down the line. Everything explained clearly and sympathetically.
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased you had a positive experience.

Mark was amazing from start to finish, super efficient and brilliant at keeping us in the loop via effective and regular communication. Would highly recommend his services to anyone. Could not have asked for a better selling and buying solicitor. He juggled lots of plates effortlessly and consistently kept on top of chasing lower chain as well as upper chain. Thank you so much Mark.

Your kind words and recommendation are greatly appreciated, and we will be sure to pass your feedback on to Mark. We wish you all the very best in your new home and thank you for choosing DFA Law.
I wait in vain for a call back from my urgent enquiry almost a week ago. I phoned twice, the first time to be told the team members were in a meeting. Their representative promised to email the details of my case to them and that the team would decide upon the most appropriate member to take on my case, and reply. One and a half hours later with no response and 10 minutes before their closing time, I phoned again to be told that I would get the call soonest the next morning. No such call came. I chose DFA simply because of their marketing leaflet found in the hospital bereavement pack after my mother’s death. The extravagant claims made in that leaflet bear no relation to the reality of their dismal response. Needless to say, I have found an alternative company who have the courtesy to reply, respond and deal with my enquiry efficiently.
We are sorry to read the above and that we were not able to assist you. Whilst you are not a client of this firm, we would like to look into this further and would request that you provide further information by email to: info@dfalaw.co.uk in order that we can investigate. Thank you

Friendly, very professional and helpful. I appreciate the advice and thought that goes into that advice.
Thank you for your positive comments. We look forward to assisting you in the future, should the need arise.
Consistently Excellent Service – Four Years On I first used DFA Law around four years ago and left a positive review at the time. Having now returned to them for another property transaction, I am genuinely pleased to say that the same high standard of service is still there. Natalie Grant handled my recent matters with professionalism, efficiency and genuine care throughout. Communication was always clear, responses were prompt, and everything was dealt with smoothly from start to finish. I had two linked property transactions to complete, and Natalie managed everything extremely well. What made it even more reassuring was that the estate agent also commented on how impressed they were with the way Natalie and DFA Law handled the transaction. It is easy to provide good service once, but maintaining that same standard over a number of years says a lot about a firm. This is exactly why I am a returning client and would happily use DFA Law again. A very well-deserved five stars for Natalie Grant and the team. Highly recommended.
Thank you for your continued trust in DFA Law and for taking the time to leave such a positive review. We're delighted to hear that Natalie provided the same high standard of service you experienced four years ago. Your kind comments about her professionalism, communication and care are greatly appreciated, and we'll be sure to pass them on. Thank you for your recommendation, and we look forward to assisting you again in the future.
Used DFA Law twice now, exceptional service, especially by Shahan, goes above and beyond.
Thank you for taking the time to share your comments and for placing your trust in DFA Law. We look forward to assisting you again in the future.
This was our fifth property transaction as a family with Hannah and her team. The experience was first class from day one to completion. Good communication and will always recommend them to anyone looking to use a local business. Keep up the great work.
Your recommendation is greatly appreciated, and we will be sure to pass your kind comments on to Hannah and the team. Thank you for choosing DFA Law once again, and we look forward to assisting you in the future.
