Exceptional service and communication

Blacks Solicitors were excellent from start to finish. In particular, Euan Lawrence was outstanding - highly professional, pragmatic and responsive throughout, often working evenings and weekends when needed, and keeping communication clear and consistent at all times. I was really impressed with the quality of the advice and the way everything was handled. Thoroughly recommend.

I would like to express my sincere thanks to David Ward and the team for the outstanding support they provided in helping me resolve what was a particularly difficult and stressful situation. Your advice was consistently clear, thorough and pragmatic, and your depth of knowledge in employment law gave me great confidence at every stage of the process. What stood out most, however, was the exceptional speed and responsiveness with which you handled my matter. Your prompt action and attention to detail were instrumental in achieving a timely and favourable resolution, and made an otherwise challenging experience for myself and my family far more manageable. I am extremely grateful for your professionalism, efficiency and dedication throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to others, and I am thankful for the care and commitment you showed in representing my interests.

I had an excellent experience with Blacks Solicitors. Georgia was incredibly helpful throughout the process of reaching a settlement with a previous employer. Georgia took the time to understand my personal situation and provided clear, considerate, and professional guidance at every stage. Her support made a complex process much easier to navigate, and I felt reassured knowing I was in capable hands. I would highly recommend Blacks Solicitors for their expertise and client-focused approach.

efficient, patient and responsive !

Leanne and Hannah at Blacks Solicitors were very helpful throughout our buy-to-let property purchase. They were efficient, patient and responsive, and always took the time to answer our questions clearly. We particularly appreciated the detailed property report and the regular updates throughout the process. The purchase was handled professionally from start to completion, and we would be happy to recommend Blacks Solicitors to others.

Liz Taylor - Property Sale

Liz was absolutely fantastic from start to finish throughout our house move. She made what could have been a very stressful process feel completely smooth and straightforward, keeping us informed every step of the way and always being there whenever we had a question or needed an update. Her professionalism, communication and attention to detail were outstanding, and we genuinely feel that she went above and beyond to make the whole transition as flawless as possible. We really appreciate all the hard work, time and effort Liz put in to getting everything completed for us. We couldn’t have asked for a better solicitor and would highly recommend Liz Taylor to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about their clients. Thank you so much, Liz, for everything you did for us!

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY. I had a very bad experience with them. I was forced by the lander to choose this company to buy a house. They only gave me promises and in the end they did not complete the process and after that they asked me to pay them the full amount for their service even though the process was not completed, their fees being higher than other companies.

Experts in Holiday Let Conveyancing, when most Solicitors assume usual Domestic House basis, and get it wrong. Very efficient and kept close contact during recent Holiday Let sale, which buyers Solicitor nearly thwarted, due to lack of experience. Have used before, and will again.
