Excellent Conveyancing Service – Highly Recommended.

I have used several different solicitors over the years for various property matters, and I can honestly say that Karisma Punjani has been the best I have dealt with so far. As a conveyancing solicitor, she has been extremely clear and thorough throughout the entire process, explaining everything in a way that is easy to understand and keeping me informed at every stage. What really stands out is how responsive she is, I never have to wait days for a reply, and she always gets back to me promptly. Her professionalism, attention to detail and excellent communication have made the conveyancing process smooth and stress-free. I would have no hesitation in recommending Karisma to anyone looking for a reliable and highly professional conveyancing solicitor.

Making the complex straight forward

Our solicitor was Sharon Galley and she was amazing from start to finish. Even when planning consent conditions from 12 years ago needed investigating and a deed of variation on a management company document needed to be arranged Sharon dealt with everything promptly. Thinking about communication, Sharon kept us up to date with the odd phone call and frequent emails so we were never left in doubt about what was happening. Thank you Sharon, you made what could have been a stressful move that bit easier.

Highly recommended conveyancing solicitor

I was planning to buy a property that was being marketed through the Modern Method of Auction and came across Setfords Solicitors, where I was assigned Karisma as my conveyancing solicitor. Karisma was excellent from beginning to end. She was extremely thorough, professional and reassuring throughout the whole process of buying my second home. As the property was being sold through the Modern Method of Auction, everything needed to move quickly, and Karisma was excellent at keeping the process on track. She explained everything clearly, kept me updated at every stage and was always quick to respond to any questions I had. Karisma is an excellent conveyancing solicitor and I would have no hesitation in recommending her or instructing her again in the future.

I have used Setfords Solicitors for my recent house sale and purchase which were particularly stressful due to a marriage separation as well. I felt at all times my matter was dealt with efficiently, professionally and compassionately. I would thoroughly recommend Setfords and in particular Anthony Garcia-Deleito to those looking for the skills I’ve mentioned and for extensive conveyancing knowledge I felt was afforded to my matter.
