Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers people buying their first home in England. It includes the steps from offer through to completion, mortgage fine-tuning, searches, and registration of ownership at HM Land Registry, plus identifying and applying any available reliefs such as first-time buyer stamp duty land tax relief. A solicitor handles drafting or reviewing contracts, coordinating with lenders, arranging surveys, liaising with the seller’s side, and ensuring the transfer of title and funds completes correctly and securely.

Where a solicitor protects your position

A first-time purchase involves time-sensitive steps: confirming funding, negotiating missives, and finalising transfer documents, with deadlines controlled by contract law, stamp duty relief eligibility, and the registration of title. A solicitor concentrates on protecting your position through accurate contract checks, ensuring proper payment of taxes, and overseeing the lodgement and registration process so ownership is legally vested in you.

Rachael Latham

Tagged solicitor Rachael Latham

Amazing service and results from Rachael and her team. As a first time buyer (solo) I was unsure of a lot of things, but was guided and my interests were represented perfectly. I was always kept up to date, and being a new process for myself, worried often, but even "pestering" or asking for information / help was never a problem. I will always be a client here for any legal need if they provide it. My experience and trust in the people I dealt with was that great that I feel Rachael's peers in other specialities must also carry equivalent experience and knowledge.

I recently purchased my first home, Kim was absolutely amazing!! She was very quick to reply to my many emails, always kept me well informed and explained everything clearly. She is very friendly, professional and I couldn't recommend her highly enough! She made a daunting and confusing process very stress free.
