I would highly recommend Ajesh Brar and Setfords. Having had a difficult experience with conveyancing in the past, I approached this process with some caution. However, from the outset, Ajesh was a pleasure to work with and quickly put us at ease. Communication was clear, consistent and always timely Expectations were set early, which removed a lot of uncertainty We were kept regularly updated without the need to chase The whole process felt well managed and under control What stood out most was the sense that Ajesh genuinely cared about delivering a good outcome for us, not just progressing the transaction. That made a real difference to our overall experience and significantly reduced what can otherwise be a stressful process. Thanks to Ajesh’s support, professionalism and attention to detail, completion was achieved smoothly and with minimal disruption. It reflects very positively on Setfords as a firm. We are very grateful for the support throughout and would not hesitate to recommend Ajesh and Setfords to others.

I can't fault the service that I received whilst selling my house. I was kept fully up to date with everything that was going on. Would definitely use again

I have had the smoothest and stressfree experience of buying a house thanks in no small part to Melanie Williams, who supported and guided me throughout the process with flawless professionalism and infinite patience. I was very aware that there was a great team as well at Setfords as Anna also helped me through the final hurdle when Melanie was on leave. I absolutely recommend Setfords Law to everyone! I hope not to need to buy another house again, but if I do, I will most definitely be contacting Melanie!
I cannot recommend Sonal Rabheru highly enough. From start to finish, she has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. She is professional, efficient, responsive, and always gets straight to the point. Property transactions can be stressful at the best of times, and I’ll happily admit that I can be quite demanding and like things pushed along as quickly as possible. Throughout the entire process, Sonal handled everything brilliantly, always remaining calm, proactive, and incredibly helpful. Her communication was excellent, her attention to detail was outstanding, and she consistently went above and beyond to keep matters moving forward. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble. A huge thank you to Sonal for all her hard work and dedication. I would highly recommend both Sonal personally and Setfords to anyone looking for a first-class solicitor. Genuinely, after this experience, I wouldn't want to work with anyone else. Thank you again, Sonal.
It's difficult to put into words just how exceptional Jacqueline Batchelor is. The care, dedication and reassurance she gave us throughout our home purchase went far beyond what we ever expected, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very beginning, Jacqueline took the time to understand what was important to us and treated our purchase as if it were her own. As first-time buyers, we naturally had lots of questions, but she was always available to help, explaining everything clearly and making sure we felt informed and confident throughout the process. Her communication was outstanding. We never once had to chase her for an update because she was always one step ahead. Whether something was urgent or routine, she responded quickly and kept us fully informed every step of the way. What impressed us most was her ability to find solutions and keep things moving. Whenever something unexpected came up, Jacqueline calmly worked through the options, explained everything clearly and found practical ways to keep us on track. We also had a completion deadline that was incredibly important to us, and she worked tirelessly to help us achieve it while ensuring we fully understood every decision being made. Perhaps the quality we valued most was that Jacqueline was never influenced by outside pressure. Whether it was estate agents, sellers or tight timescales, her focus never changed. She wasn't interested in taking shortcuts or simply getting the transaction completed; her priority was making sure everything was right for us and that our interests were always protected. As first-time buyers, we'd heard countless horror stories about buying a house. Thanks to Jacqueline, we don't have one. Instead, we had a solicitor who genuinely cared, communicated brilliantly and guided us through every stage of the process with professionalism and confidence. Looking back, we realise just how lucky we were to have had Jacqueline by our side. She made what could have been a stressful and overwhelming experience feel organised, manageable and reassuring from start to finish. If you're looking for a solicitor who will put your interests first, keep you informed and give you complete confidence throughout the process, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jacqueline.
Dear Aharon, What a wonderful review. We're so pleased to hear that Jacqueline was able to make your first home purchase such a positive and reassuring experience from start to finish. Her dedication to keeping your interests front and centre, even under pressure, is exactly the kind of service we're proud to offer. Thank you for taking the time to share such heartfelt feedback and congratulations on your new home! Kind regards, Setfords
Awful experience so far. Nearly a year of back and forth and still no completion of property. Paperwork isnt being checked, errors and mistakes that could cause risk to me later that ive had to point out by having someone else check the paperwork thoroughly. Unfortunatly i dont have a choice and stuck with them. They dont care.. you have to chase for responses, not accountability for mistakes theyve made etc. Caused so muxh delay that whikst not all their fault they have contributed. Please avoid if you deserve better service. Will update my review with names etc at a later stage.
Aga Scott did our conveyance and was superb. She was very efficient, dealt with queries quickly, gave us clear guidance and answers. i would totally recommend her. Perfect.
Dear Joe, Really pleased to hear that Aga was able to deliver such an efficient and clear service throughout your conveyancing. Thank you for your recommendation! Kind regards, Setfords
Great support from Roberta, worked really hard at getting our remortgage through.
Dear Raymond, Really pleased to hear that Roberta worked so hard to get your remortgage over the line. Thank you for your kind words! Kind regards, Setfords

I used Setfords for my divorce, will update and I was further recommended Sam Laker as a convancy solicitor for my new ‘Home’. I purchased post divorce. Sam was not only professional, but she was understanding and supportive though out the purchase of my flat, understanding how stressful things had been and making things as smooth as she could. Once the leasehold was purchased, I then employed Sam further to extend the leasehold extension. With an outdated lease, being offered, there was considerable work needing to be done, and with the other side using a trainee, some times the work was extremely tedious and took a lot longer than it should have through no fault of Sam’s, however, Sam pushed for the correct information when it wasn’t right, to ensure that I had the most accurate data to match today’s laws. . Sam is meticulous in her work and made sure that everything was done properly. She explained in layman’s terms when I needed help understanding legal terminology and was always avalible to discuss things if need be. I have a huge respect for all the Setford professionals I have used in the past 3 years and would definitely recommend to anyone. There system uses high tec security, everything is easy to understand and easy to use. So I was never worried about that side of things. Everything was dealt with in the most professional manner possible.

I spent two months looking for a lease extension solicitor, reaching out to probably 30 firms - both big and small - and no one would even touch my case. I wasn't even sure why, especially since everyone wanted to work with me when I was originally buying my property. Luckily, I came across Seafords, and they agreed to take on my case, which was allocated to Merlin Batchelor. Merlin did a fantastic job supporting me throughout the entire process. He replied to my emails in a timely manner, offered additional help when needed, and advised me on the best way forward. The whole process took almost a year, but the delays were entirely caused by the freeholder trying to squeeze as much money from me as possible by confusing and delaying things, as well as an additional five-month delay caused by a surveyor who took my money and disappeared for five months. I am really pleased with the way Merlin handled everything, and I highly recommend Seafords if you need to do a lease extension.

As someone who has worked in the legal sector for many years, I know the challenges of finding a properly qualified, experienced and regulated lawyer. Time and time again, the general consumer is talked into using 'legal advisers' who are lacking on all fronts. That is why I will always use and have continued to use a Chartered Legal Executive for my property affairs. Amanda Wright is a property specialist, not a generalist, and is a safe pair of hands, backed by a robust and rigorous qualification and high ethical standards. You get what you pay for so pay for a seamless experience, knowledge and expertise, that handles everything with minimal input required from you the client. No endless chasing required, updates provided as and when appropriate and oodles of common sense and experience to handle all manner of property queries. Thank you Amanda!

Used Michael Compton for what should have been a very simple service for an extraordinary cost compared to others solicitors. I heard nothing from him for a month despite repeated chasing, no work was carried out on my behalf and he significantly delayed the process causing what was already a very stressful time, even more stressful. Avoid.
