      Outstabnding service

      I cannot recommend Bill Rashbrook at Downs Solicitors highly enough. Our sale involved an extremely complex issue with our freeholder that prevented us from exchanging contracts. My original solicitors were unable to deal with the complexities of amending the lease, and it looked as though the sale might not be able to proceed. Bill took ownership of the matter from the outset and gave us complete confidence that it could be resolved. No problem was ever too big, and his professionalism, knowledge, and determination were outstanding throughout. Behind the scenes, Bill worked tirelessly, coordinating with the freeholder, the freeholder's solicitors, my buyers' solicitors, my onward purchase solicitors, and the estate agents involved in both transactions. He kept everything moving forward, resolved issues as they arose, and ultimately achieved what others had been unable to do. Without Bill's expertise and persistence, I genuinely don't believe our sale and purchase would have completed. He went above and beyond at every stage, and we are incredibly grateful for everything he did.

      We could not have asked for more!

      Bill and Natasja were great to work with. They were pleasant and professional, knowledgeable and proactive, prompt, efficient and kept us well informed throughout - we could not have asked for more. We were trying to buy a flat for my father-in-law. Bill's intuition on the first was spot on, and we pulled out. On the second, from instruction to completion it took just 5 weeks, despite 2 Bank Holiday weekends! Thank you! Highly recommended.

      If you're after the best in class, you've come to the right place!

      Terina and the team have been an absolute godsend when it came to handling the difficult and often emotional process of dealing with divorce. She was always on hand and made me feel as comfortable and up to date with the process at all times. If I ever have any friends of family needing advice, Terina is absolutely the first choice I would point them to without any doubt in my mind.

We're really pleased that she was able to support you so well through the divorce process, it's never an easy thing to go through but it's definitely makes it slightly easier to have someone you can rely on to always be on hand.

      The support and help given to me by Liz and Bronwyn was second to none. They were there for me when I needed it most with the ups and downs of selling my property. The personal interest they took was incredible. They stayed with me through to the end of this difficult and stressful sale . Thank you Liz and Bronwyn

      From start to completion of sales transaction, very professional service, very accommodating to those whose IT skills are perhaps not proficient. All in all the Solicitors and their colleagues made this transaction a smooth and stress free experience, highly recommend
