Me and my partner moved into our first house last week and it would not have been possible without Gardner Champion solicitors. Hawa was absolutey amazing throughout our whole experience. Very responsive and helpful, not a bad word to say about our experience with Hawa. 😊

My purchase has now completed successfully and I have collected the keys. To be fair, when Ghalia Hussain became involved, the transaction did move forward. Queries were answered, issues were addressed, and she ultimately helped get the purchase over the line during a particularly difficult period of my life. For that, I am grateful. However, the overall experience was undermined by repeated communication and case management issues throughout the transaction. My original conveyancer, Ayesha went on extended leave without informing me, and I only became aware of this after chasing for an update and receiving an out-of-office message. The file was reassigned without any proactive communication, which immediately damaged my confidence in the process. Throughout the transaction there were multiple occasions where updates, reports and documentation were promised by a particular date but were not provided as advised. This resulted in repeated chasing and uncertainty at key stages of the purchase. The most significant concern occurred immediately before completion. A gifted deposit declaration that was required by the lender and clearly referenced within the mortgage offer was only identified and requested the afternoon before completion. This created an entirely avoidable last-minute scramble to obtain signatures and return documentation in order to keep the transaction on track. There were also instances where information and payments that had already been provided appeared not to have been properly recorded, creating further unnecessary stress. The legal work itself ultimately achieved the desired outcome and the purchase completed successfully. However, the communication, expectation management and file administration fell below the standard I would expect during such an important transaction. In summary: Positives Purchase completed successfully. Ghalia worked hard in the final stages to progress matters. Queries were answered once the file reached completion stage. Areas for Improvement Communication and proactive updates. Handover arrangements during staff absence. Managing client expectations regarding timescales. Earlier identification of lender requirements. Internal file administration and tracking of information already supplied. Overall, I am pleased to have completed my purchase, but the process was considerably more stressful than it needed to be.

I had an excellent experience with Dr Nahal Allahhi. She was really professional, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout my case. She always took the time to explain everything clearly, and her communication and attention to detail were exceptional. I truly appreciated her dedication, care, and guidance, which gave me complete confidence throughout the process. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr Nahal Allahhi to anyone looking for a professional, trustworthy, and compassionate solicitor. Thank you, Dr Allahhi, for all your help and support.

Exceptional Legal Expertise and Outstanding Client Service I have been consistently impressed by the professionalism, responsiveness and legal expertise provided by Gardner Champion Solicitors. What sets this firm apart is its ability to combine traditional legal values with a modern, client-focused approach. The team provides clear advice, practical solutions and excellent communication throughout every stage of a matter. Complex legal issues are explained in straightforward language, allowing clients to make informed decisions with confidence. The firm’s strengths are particularly evident in commercial property, residential conveyancing, business law, regulatory matters, immigration, wills and probate, and dispute resolution. The solicitors demonstrate a deep understanding of both legal and commercial considerations and work hard to achieve the best possible outcome for their clients. I found the service to be efficient, transparent and highly professional. Calls and emails were returned promptly, advice was clear and practical, and I always felt that my matter was receiving proper attention. It is reassuring to instruct a firm with such a long-established reputation, modern standards of client care, and Solicitors Regulation Authority regulation. Gardner Champion Solicitors combines experience, expertise and personal service in a way that is increasingly difficult to find. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gardner Champion Solicitors to individuals, property investors, business owners and companies seeking trusted legal advisers who genuinely care about delivering excellent results.

Saskia was a pleasure to deal with. She dealt with everything professionally and efficiently. Would recommend her to anyone moving home to handle all the legal side.

Gardner Champion were unprofessional, uncommunicative and incompetent. We had the misfortune of dealing with Isma Dad, a paralegal; she was completely unhelpful. Several requests to speak to a solicitor were ignored. As were requests for phone calls, for clarity of what was happening (which was nothing). 4 months of stress and wasted time. 2 email requests to make a formal complaint were ignored. They were then responded to once we changed solicitor! 3 weeks into our new solicitor, we are further on than the 4 months of wasted time and frustration with Gardner Champion. Avoid.

I used Gardner Champion Solicitors for conveyancing. Amin and Kayaam were absolutely amazing. Due to unfortunate circumstances, the contract exchange was delayed by a day. That morning, Amin and Kayaam worked tirelessly to carry out a simultaneous same day exchange and completion, they maintained contact throughout the entire process and were incredibly responsive. I would definitely recommend their team.

Saskia was fantastic. She was so communicative, always got back to me via call and email. She was proactive and dealt with a very challenging other solicitor on the other side of the process. Really pleased.
