Outstanding Service from Start to Finish

I cannot recommend Foys highly enough. From the very beginning, the entire team was professional, responsive and genuinely committed to helping us complete our purchase. A special thank you to Andrea, the Partner, whose expertise, guidance and professionalism gave us complete confidence throughout the process. Andrea went above and beyond to ensure everything progressed as smoothly as possible and worked incredibly hard to help us meet our completion date. I would also like to recognise Jillian and Lisa, the Legal Secretaries, who were both an absolute pleasure to deal with. They were always friendly, approachable and quick to respond to any queries. Nothing ever seemed too much trouble, and they consistently kept us informed every step of the way. Everyone at Foys was pleasant, efficient and genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for us. The team went well beyond the call of duty, working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure we completed on time. If you're looking for a conveyancing solicitor who is professional, communicative and truly puts their clients first, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Foys. Thank you all for making what can often be a stressful process feel so straightforward. Outstanding service from an exceptional team.

Property Sale and Purchase

We had Grace Walker handle the sale and purchase of our property recently and she was a pleasure to deal with. She wasn't afraid of putting on pressure with the other solicitors to keep the process moving which was something that I really appreciated and was very good at keeping me up to date with progress. Also I had no complaints about my many questions I threw her way. I recommended her to a colleague and he has had a pleasure working with Grace as well with the same experience as me. Thank you!!

Hannah is a star

We would like to thank Hannah Edgley for making a tricky house purchase so much easier and less stressful. Her attention to detail and quick responses are second to none, along with her friendly but professional attitude. We would absolutely use her if we ever move again, it’s the best experience of conveyancing we’ve ever had. Thanks also to Gillian Turner whose advice regarding Trust Funds was literally life saving, and again so friendly and professional. Jayne and David.

Faultless and exceptional service from beginning to end!!

We used Foys to assist with our house move last year and the service was exceptional!! Our personal circumstances meant that we needed to move ASAP and Foys (Hannah Edgley) made it happen within 2 months from us agreeing the sale/ purchase price. There were inevitable obstacles along the way but Hannah dealt with them instantly and with the upmost professionalism which took so much personal pressure off us. Emails were answered within minutes (literally) and I could always get them on the phone as soon as I needed to. I could not recommend them highly enough. Fantastic value for money too!!

We used Hannah at Foys Doncaster for our conveyancing and she was wonderful. Everything moved quickly, she kept us up to date with every step and explained the ‘Legalese’ so we understood what was happening! Can’t recommend them enough.

Hannah handled the conveyancing for both my sale and purchase, and she was brilliant throughout. Her communication was clear, timely, and she kept me regularly updated, which made the whole process much less stressful. I’d highly recommend her and Foys Solicitors for anyone needing conveyancing support.

Excellent Service

As ever, Foys were brilliant. Always kept in contact with us, either through a call or mail and Claire was always happy to speak and answer any questions we had. Also should be noted that if she was busy, she always responded back as soon as she possibly could.

Grace was fantastic.

Our process from viewing a property to completion was just 8 weeks. This was in a large part due to Grace being absolutely fantastic. She was always kind, courteous and reassuring us at times when we were most anxious. She always promptly replied to emails and remained professional throughout the process. We had to give 5 stars just purely based on how brilliant Grace was, however, our experience with Foys overall unfortunately soured in the final week. Grace left to go on annual leave during our completion, which we knew 3 weeks in advance. We knew that funds would be released from my Lifetime ISA on the 3rd August, and completion was on the 7th August. As soon as our funds were released we called Foys every day so that we could get contracts exchanged. This still didn't happen until less than 24 hours before completion. Foys did not contact us once in this period, as every email and phone call was initiated by us, and there were a lot of them. We only found out that contracts had been exchanged because we called them to ask. We were told that there was nothing to worry about and that we had everything we need and that completion would go ahead no problem. At 1pm on completion day, we called to see if there was any progress. Foys told us that we were missing a document with our broker and that we had to send it in the NEXT HOUR in order for our funds to be released. Even though we had already asked THREE times if there was anything we needed to send. What would have happened if we hadn't called them? They clearly knew that we needed to send a document because the solicitor mentioned it as soon as we mentioned our name on the phone. If we hadn't called, completion would have been delayed, which would have been very costly. We appreciate that it is difficult to manage your own caseload as well as someone else's on annual leave, which is why we haven't named the solicitor. However, this is a failing of Foys, whether it be management or the solicitors themselves, so this five star review is not for Foys, but solely for Grace and how brilliant she was. As I mentioned, viewing to completion in 8 weeks with a small chain is miraculous, so we know how lucky we are.

Andrea Honeybone, Jillian and Lisa were excellent in keeping us updated with the sale of our house and purchase of our new property. Always got back to us when I contacted any of them and Andrea and Jillian were happy for us to speak to them directly, which was so reassuring during an extremely stressful time. Total confidence in this superb team and would definitely recommend them. Excellent service!

Jane Fieldhouse is an excellent conveyancer. She is professional, knowledgeable and meticulous at what she does. She paid attention to every detail, kept me updated throughout, managed my expectations well and also adhered to the timings I had given her. She is a huge credit to Foys and I truly felt that she supported me and really worked with me to ensure she could provide me with an excellent service. I had nothing to worry about and I am very grateful for the way she dealt with my house purchase. Her assistant Kirsty was also excellent and always available in Jane’s absence. I would 100% recommend Jane to all, including family and friends. Thank you for your time Jane and I hope you continue to thrive- Kiran
