Top 10 of 4,693 law firms for New Homes, Housing & Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers buying newly built homes, including plots in housing developments, off‑plan purchases, and completions under build contracts. A solicitor helps by reviewing the contract of sale, checking the developer’s warranties and fixtures, guiding deposit protections, and coordinating with lenders, surveyors, and the mortgage offer. They also handle deeds, land registry entry, and post‑completion registrations, and liaise with the builder and warranty providers on snagging and defects. The work is shaped by contract terms, planning permissions, and building regulations.

Where a solicitor protects your position

Purchasers face deadlines for exchanges, completions, and deposit protection; delays or misdescribed finishes can have serious consequences. A solicitor provides guidance on the contract, protects funds with client accounts, and ensures warranties (such as structural or NHBC) are in place. They manage notices and remedies, and handle post‑completion registrations to secure a title and enforce build standards.

Emma has just completed the purchase of our new Redrow house. Brilliant service from start to finish. Super efficient, everything dealt with so quickly. Always prompt responses to queries and phone calls. By far the best house move experience we’ve had. Highly recommended. Thank you Emma!

Louise Langabeer

Tagged solicitor Louise Langabeer

Louise Langabeer and her team of Kim Pearce and Sharon Nicholls have dealt with 3 house purchases and 2 house sales for me over the last 9 years. Louise is not only highly professional and effective but also has an excellent communication ability and retains a good sense of humour (as do her team). It has been a pleasure to engage them and to work with them. I would not say "Tenacious" ( it can smack of aggression ?) but certainly "Determined" in getting results.

Hayley Hart

Tagged solicitor Hayley Hart

My mum used Rotheras (Hayley Hart and Sophie Lyndon) for the sale of her house. Really appreciate all the time and work that was put into getting everything done so quickly! Especially Hayley on the day of completion. It’s such a nerve-wracking day but she got it done really early and I think as a direct result of that, meant the rest of the chain happened really quickly and smoothly, so can’t thank her enough for that.

Kathryn Lofthouse

Tagged solicitor Kathryn Lofthouse

Kathryn always kept us up to speed throughout the entire process, got back to emails promptly and was lovely to speak to on the phone. The main point to make in this review however, is that she worked tirelessly to get us over a chain imposed deadline at short notice. Thank you and Michelle for all your hard work. Rebecca and Jim

Stephen Taylor

Tagged solicitor Stephen Taylor

Stephen is a most patient and considerate practitioner with gentleness in his diligence and efficiency . In matters of conveyancing the stakes are high and it’s a significant time which made me appreciate all points of contact with staff members as his colleagues.

Jannine HendersonKelly Hind

Tagged solicitors Jannine Henderson and Kelly Hind

We recently used this firm to buy a new build as first time buyers. The process felt incredibly overwhelming and we initially struggled with the heavy use of legal jargon but our direct solicitors Kelly and Jannine were great. They provided excellent, timely and consistent communication throughout, between both me and my partner. After sharing that I am neurodivergent and require clear and concise information in layman's terms, our team did an amazing job at adapting their communication to breakdown complex steps clearly, all while keeping a friendly and approachable tone. We are very grateful to our specific solicitors and highly recommend our specific legal team for their empathy and communication!
