Re: Tenancy Matter. Eviction

Throughout the entire process of initial dialogue, instruction and subsequent removal of tenant, Keith was of the utmost help. We own in excess of 20 rental properties, and i would not hesitate to use Smith & Co again. Indeed I believe my rental agents are doing exactly that.

What an amazing experience! Despite this ending up being a complicated sale, everything was dealt with professionally and respectfully. I have been kept updated throughout and a huge amount of work went in to ensuring everything was sorted and completed correctly. I really could not have asked for anything more. Thank you so much.

We have now used Smith & CO’s conveyancing service twice and cannot recommend them highly enough (as another reviewer has said - we would give 6 stars out of 5 if we could!). For our latest move in December 2021, Jo Perrins was our allocated conveyancer and could not have been more helpful with what turned out to be a tricky chain. Thanks again to all at Smith & Co!

A representative from Smith & Co Solicitors responded to this review

Dear Chris Your kind words and loyalty means a lot to us as Jo and all the team put their all into providing a great service. 2021 was an exhausting year for conveyancers and house movers alike and your recognition makes it all the more worthwhile.

We have used Mark for several property purchases / sales over the last 12 years and wouldn’t hesitate to do so again, and would highly recommend him to anyone else looking for an experienced conveyancer who provides an efficient, effective, diligent and personable service. Despite tight deadlines, and numerous challenges he remained positive and ensured that we were in a position to exchange and complete within the required timeframe. Thanks!

Excellent service throughout

First-time buyer with LISA plus funds from outside of the UK but Rebecca provided super clear instructions, extremely speedy and organised with her work and just made the whole process so much easier. Would definitely recommend Smith & Co Solicitors and especially Rebecca!
