Claire Pays

Tagged solicitor Claire Pays

Claire provided a very efficient and timely conveyancing service regarding the sale of my mother's property to enable us to raise funds to pay for my mother's future care. She promptly and efficiently dealt with all of our enquiries regarding the sale process including the added complication of our original buyer withdrawing. The whole process seemed to run smoothly. I am very satisfied with the service.
