Top 10 of 4,694 law firms for First Time Buyers, Housing & Property

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.

Donna BeaumontJohn Leslie Brian

Tagged solicitors Donna Beaumont and John Leslie Brian

Looking to move to our final home John Brian and Donna Beaumont at Sherrards were our obvious go to solicitors having helped in the past with children’s house purchases. Good choice - we had lots of buyer and seller interactions - we had 3 buyers who all ‘started the process’ and we lost one house on the way (lucky as our final home is better!) Donna and John guided us all the way - how many solicitors will send info evenings and weekends and were happy to help throughout! Professional , Efficient ,ever Helpful and above all Considerate - can honestly say they never broke a promise and took on so much of the stress a home move always generates Thank You and if you are thinking of moving and need a solicitor then in our view they are ‘the very best’

I used Burridge & Pluck for the first time to sell a property. Throughout the whole experience the level of communication has been excellent with all queries answered quickly and efficiently. Every task was completed when they said it would be with no delays. I would highly recommend for their excellent friendly service.

Hayley Tenney

Tagged solicitor Hayley Tenney

Hayley was lovely to work with, she was so quick to get back to us by email, give us guidance and explanations on this daunting process for a first-time buyer! She also kept us updated on the silence from other solicitors, even without us having to ask her! She was really professional and would recommend her to anyone who wants a fast and efficient solicitor!

Tagged solicitor Kristel Wan

If you are first time buyer (or any!) then I couldn't recommend the Nicholls team and Kristel more. Throughout the whole process we were kept up to date and any queries (no matter how silly they sounded) were answered quickly. We felt at ease with Kristel and really appreciate everything her and the team have done to support us buy our first home. Thank you so much to Kristel and team!

Jason Stanley

Tagged solicitor Jason Stanley

Jason helped me with the sale of my old family home. He knew exactly how to approach the situation. He is very knowledgeable and made sure I come out on the other side with the best results. Selling a joint house with your ex can be hard and stressful but Jason had my best interest at heart and made sure I received what I deserved. I will keep him on speed dial for my next legal matter. He is a very knowledgeable and a great lawyer and I would highly recommend him.
