Helen, my solicitor, considered my case very carefully, and then offered me possible choices that could save time and cost. She always planned ahead that the things could happen and let me have sufficient time to prepare. My case is a little complex as it was involved with both UK financial setlement and overseas jurisdictions. She planned me to begin with simple matter -- get back land register (least cost), then pointed out, in case of need, receiving counsel advice and seeking barrister (more expensive). This was proved the most efficient as to process my case.

I moved house earlier this year and decided to go with Herringtons on a recommendation.. They were thorough kind and reasonably priced. My solicitor Yuan Ling Chen was brilliant and talked me through anything I didn't understand. She went above and beyond. I would go with Herringtons again.

We have been trying to buy the land next to our house from the garden for a few years. Mohammed was really good and dealing with the council and pointed out things we would never have thought of. We ended up with a better deal on the conditions and restricions the council tried to put on the land. We are now really happy and hopefully be able to build the extension we wanted and enjoy our bigger garden. Thank you Mohammed

As first time buyers, the house buying process felt overwhelming, but working with Georgia made us feel like we were in completely safe hands. Georgia was efficient right from the start, sending all paperwork promptly and staying way ahead of our completion timeline, which took so much pressure off us. When a sale in the chain unexpectedly fell through just a week before completion, the empathy, care, and support we received was incredible. Georgia helped us navigate a stressful situation with incredible patience and professionalism. Once the sale was back on track, she went above and beyond to put extra safety nets in place to protect our mortgage offer and give us peace of mind. No question was ever too small or silly, and Georgia’s communication kept my anxiety at bay throughout. I couldn't have asked for a better solicitor. Highly, highly recommend!

We engaged Slee Blackwell to act for us in the sale of our house. We required an easement to be drawn up and a plan correction at the Land Registry before the usual legal formalities could take place. The conveyancing team were sympathetic to our anxious state, explained the process clearly and kept us informed at every stage. They patiently dealt with the forensic enquiries of (in my opinion) a very trying buyer and kept smiling through a tense and anxious engagement with The Land Registry.

We have completed several remortgages with Russell and Russell. Good communication and smooth process. Gulrez Khan and Callum in particular were very quick and efficient in getting them through. Will definitely be using again!

We came across Sweeney Miller has a highly rated local solicitors to help us in purchasing a house in Sunderland for my mother-in-law to stay in. My wife and I live in Bermuda, and we approached a few solicitors to help us with the purchase. Sweeney Miller gave us a swift quote with accurate calculations of SDLT, which was ultimately the reason to proceed with them as others were either not quick enough or miscalculated the tax. Once on-boarded their solicitor portal was extremely helpful and transparent to know exactly where we were at each stage. Additionally, our contact throughout the whole process, Farzana Begum, was professional, prompt, clear, and receptive to any questions. They were extremely thorough with due diligence, searches and advised on any potential hurdles to the process. She was immensely accommodating of the time difference, which hindered usual communication times and overall, we could not be happier with the services rendered.

I will always be so very grateful to Elliott Brookes and his team for his help with an awful boundary dispute with a so-called neighbour. The daunting situation I found myself in was handled with the utmost professionalism but also with kindness and understanding to me.
