Thorough, efficient, prompt

Michael was very thorough, efficient, prompt in his responses to our emails etc., and entirely understandable in his explanations of the law, patricularly relating to the 900 year old 'rabbit holes' of escheat

Michael Coward acted for us in the sale and purchase of properties. His communication throughout the process was excellent and he was thorough and prompt with all paperwork and replies. We cannot recommend highly enough, it really does lift some of the stress of the whole process knowing that the conveyancing is in a safe pair of hands!

We chose Michael Coward at FDC Law partly because his communication from the moment I enquired was excellent. We hadn't sold a house before, or dealt with solicitors, and with Michael we felt in safe and reliable hands. Very transparent and open to answering questions which was important as it was a stressful time and process. Can't thank Michael and his team enough. Will definitely use the firm again if necessary.
