Moving ‘Eric the Legend’ from Sheldon to Sutton Coldfield

I have been helping prepare my 93 year old dad for a home move from a house in Sheldon in which he has lived for 66 years to a retirement village in Sutton Coldfield. We have just completed the move this week. Our legal conveyancing was carried out by Jessica Malone at Sydney Mitchell, Sheldon office. The service which Jess provided was first class - very professional, efficient and sensitive to the advanced age of my dad. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sydney Mitchell and Jess Malone in particular to friends and family. You can expect a very high standard of service and a ‘human touch’ during what for many can be a stressful situation.

Professional and Excellent Work

I had the pleasure of working with Jessica Malone for our recent house purchase conveyancing transaction, which was successfully completed on 13th June. I want to express my sincere appreciation for her professionalism and straightforward approach, which truly stood out throughout the entire process. Jessica's expertise and ability to explain the intricacies of the conveyancing process in a clear and concise manner were instrumental in making me feel confident and reassured at every step. Her extraordinary abilities and unwavering commitment are deserving of recognition, and I will undoubtedly recommend her to anyone in need of legal assistance in the future.
