Housing & Property

In Safe Hands

Samantha Smith dealt with the sale of our old property and the purchase of our new property and we felt like we were in incredibly safe hands from beginning to end. Anything a chain could throw at Sam our chain did - the initial buyers pulling out late on in the process, a quick re-market and re-sale, Agents and Solicitors in the chain that were incredibly difficult to deal with (with queries still being raised at the eleventh hour).................................. From the initial acceptance of our offer in June 2025, we eventually moved in to our new property in March 2026 - with Sam helping keep us calm (and sane) to completion. Sam is extremely knowledgeable and professional, whilst being completely approachable and adding the "human touch" to what would otherwise have been an incredibly daunting and stressful process. We would not hesitate to recommend Sam and the Firm of Longden Walker & Renney.

Dear David. Thank you for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that Samantha provided such knowledgeable, professional, and supportive assistance throughout both your sale and purchase, particularly during what sounds like a very challenging and complex chain. It is wonderful to know she was able to keep you reassured and supported from start to finish, while also bringing a personal and calming approach to the process. We really appreciate your recommendation and you taking the time to share your experience.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had the pleasure of working with Chris Clayton from Longden Walker & Renney Solicitors, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From the outset, Chris was professional, knowledgeable, and always accessible, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. He demonstrated an exceptional understanding of the legal landscape and provided clear, concise advice that really helped guide us through some complex situations. His attention to detail and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for us was second to none. If you are looking for a solicitor who truly cares about his clients and delivers results, look no further than Chris Clayton. A first-class service all around!

Recently completed on a new house through LWR and the whole process has been efficient and fuss-free. We were ready to exchange long before the rest of the chain. Very friendly and helpful. We've used them for similar purposes before and were equally happy.

Really accommodating, especially after we walked in without an appointment. Receptionist and the solicitor who met us were very personable which made the process feel a lot better than a transactional sale.

I must give my feedback/review for services provided by Stephen and Sarah at Longden Walker & renney solicitors. Stephen is highly professional and absolute friendly at the same time. He explains everything to the point and with smallest details, and make sure individual is fully aware of both positive and negative factors. I must recommend their services. His PA Sarah is also fantastic, and takes timely follow up as and when required. The lady on reception @Susan greets you with her sweet and cheerfull voice everytime. Overall 10 on 10 for them all. Recommend 100%

Excellent service from Sarah and Stephen. Not only did they work with us on a new purchase they also supported us to solve a problem caused by our previous solicitors. They always kept us informed and nothing was a problem for them. Would highly recommend them and we would certainly use them again in the future.

Excellent service as always. We had the pleasure of dealing with Jackie Rutherford and the conveyancing team with regards to the sale of my late Father’s house. They made the process as smooth and painless as possible. We have worked with Laura Robinson for many years and had no hesitation in getting LWR’s conveyancing team to assist with this. First rate!
