Great service on Sale of property

Shona Carmichael was great in dealing with the sale of our property which was more complicated than we had originally thought as a deed of variation was required by the purchasers. Very thorough and kept us informed. Would not hesitate to use again for other matters.

Thank you

Larken’s were friendly, fair and reasonably priced. There were a few instances where we didn’t fully understand the process, or next steps, but they were dealing with a somewhat complex conveyancing transaction for us. Overall a good experience. When speaking and emailing them, it was good to be able to have direct contact, with real people.

Strong support for settlement agreement

I had a slightly contentious settlement agreement that I needed legal support with. It's the first time I've used Larken & Co, and they came word of mouth. I don't think it was a complicated job but Lesley and team were satisfyingly assertive in keeping the pressure on my employer to get the agreement finalised and signed quickly. This included arguing for a biased element to be removed. There was, early in my work with Larken, a slightly delayed response from them on one item but this was never repeated once we had discussed expectations. All other communications from first to last were frequent and timely. I felt Lesley was ready to go to battle for me and would use her and Larken again.

Settlement agreement

First time ever needing to utilise a solicitor for anything and Lesley was really good with me, especially considering the sensitive nature of my situation. She made me feel at ease straight away and helped me understand all of the legal jargon I wasn't familiar with

Sale of residential property

Selina Turner and Sally Holen acted on our behalf on the sale of a residential property. We found them both to be incredibly efficient and personable, dealing with the paperwork promptly, providing clear instructions to us throughout and liaising with the buyer's solicitors very quickly. They were transparent regarding the cost of the matter from the outset and we received seamless cover from their office, even when they were both away. We were very pleased with the service provided and would not hesitate to use Selina and Sally again.
