"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,"

My sister & I were the executors for my Mum's estate. Mark was very approachable from the start & we felt confident that the bungalow sale was in good hands. Mark met with us at the DFA offices to complete paperwork & was even willing to bring paperwork to me as I live in another town & don't own a car. Mark's professionalism ensured a very difficult task was made easier for us & we are very grateful for that. I would recommend Mark & DFA wholeheartedly.

We’re so grateful to receive such kind words about Mark, whose approachable and professional support made a challenging time that little bit easier. Thank you for trusting DFA Law.

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.
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.
We worked with Katie to produce new Wills and LPAs. She and her colleagues have been really friendly and helpful during the process. In particular she was very efficient and concise with information we requested throughout and the fee was more than reasonable.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad Katie and the team were able to assist you efficiently and make the process straightforward.
