Exceptional

Engaged Downs to help with our house move, which was far from straightforward, and they were absolutely superb. Bill took point and was fantastic, though the whole team were excellent to deal with. Fantastic communication, went above and beyond to help us through so I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

KIndness and Professionalism

Nicola guided me through one of the most difficult periods of my life with kindness and professionalism. She was always available for reassurance and was clear as to what my options were and the consequences of each option. I felt protected legally and safe emotionally with Nicola. She dealt with me compassionately and with warmth. I felt in safe and capable hands- thank you.

I engaged Downs Solicitors to provide a conveyancing service for my mothers house. Bronwyn Olivier and Liz Rose provided a very good service and the transaction was completed very smoothly. I had a few problems getting all the documents sent by e mail however I was able to deliver them directly to the office where the reception team were very friendly and even made me a cup of tea whilst they processed the documents.
