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,

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.

A representative from DFA Law LLP responded to this review

Thank you for your kind feedback. We're delighted that Hannah and the team were able to support you through the administration of your late Mother's Estate and assist with the property sale. Your appreciation means a great deal, and we wish you all the best for the future.

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.

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.

Zero complaints

Mark was my conveyancing solicitor. From start to finish, the entire process of buying my first property was dealt with precisely how one would wish to be dealt with. Each and every time I had a query, Mark answered not only politely and professionally, but very quickly too. I would highly recommend DFA - and I'm a hard person to impress.... but I'm impressed.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear that Mark provided such an efficient, professional, and responsive service throughout your first home purchase. Thank you for choosing DFA Law!"

Convey(anc)ing my thanks

I have used DFA Law on previous occasions and found them very efficient and friendly. This time was no different. I was buying a home and Mark was my conveyancer. He was friendly efficient and looked after my interests so that I had complete confidence in the sale. He kept me informed throughout and had a positive outcome. Thanks Mark.

Couldn’t recommend Mark at DFA Law enough! He was communicative, transparent and kept us informed at all times throughout the whole process. He helped us a lot through what was a very complex chain and without him, we wouldn’t have completed within our required timeline! Huge thanks to Mark, my partner and I couldn’t recommend him enough!
