supportive through drama

I had an long drawn out house sale and purchase. The 1st house the sale fell apart and then buying this house the forward facing solicitors caused drama. Sarah and the team were wonderful. They communicated with me at each stage, answered my many many questions without issue and were genuinely happy for me when it all went through.

I would not hesitate to recommend Milners Harrogate

My conveyancing work by Milners Harrogate was carried out with professionalism and sympathetic understanding as I am getting on in years. The confidence and reassurance provided by John Robson, Rachel Knight and the team, made them a joy to work with, keeping me informed from my initial offer, right up to the day of purchase and coming to my rescue on the very day of ‘handover of keys’. I would not hesitate to recommend Milners Harrogate to any one buying or selling in this area, I will call on them, in the future, to handle my Will and any other legal dealings I may have.

Fantastic Service!

I was incredibly nervous, stressed and faced many issues when buying my first property earlier this year. Rachel was highly recommended as a conveyancing solicitor and it's very easy to understand why. From start to finish, Rachel was so wonderful, professional and informative. When I was turned down for the mortgage, Rachel recommended a broker who was also incredible. I highly recommend Rachel as she is not only highly experienced and accomplished, she consistently goes above and beyond for her clients.

My house sales went through without any problems until the day of completion when the buyers failed to transfer the funds, this was all handled professionally and the problem swiftly resolved. I would recommend Milners.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we're pleased to see that we were able to assist you to get this over the line.

The support Milners gave me was crucial. They handled the sale of my old house and the purchase of the new one. The coordination of efforts on my behalf of the paralegal colleague and the assigned solicitor was hugely helpful in making the double-transaction work smoothly. All in all a very professional firm.

Really appreciated

During our house move we soon realised there were few decent property solicitors in Harrogate. 1 month into our sale and purchase we had to get rid of ours and the solicitors acting on behalf of our seller and buyer were utterly dreadful, each jeopardising the sale and purchase at several points. They were unqualified and acted in their own interests as opposed to their clients. Were were so lucky to find Charlotte Thomas from Milners. She got to grips with both our sale and purchase, took control and pretty much managed the entire process, leading both of the other parties solitors. She was honest, clear and very supportive and pretty much saved the day. If you are looking for a solicitor for your sale or purchase choose wisely and definitley get in touch with Charlotte and Milners.

Good advice delivered with style

Destinee Ellis advised us recently on updating our wills. She suggested options we hadn’t thought about, with pros and cons. The whole process was straightforward and efficiently executed - with a great sense of humour - that made it a good experience as well as a good outcome.

Would not have said anything but for the insistence on completing the feedback. Did not like superior attitude, difficulties in getting access - or the overestimation of amount of work required. Will not use again. JW

Mr Iain Robson skillfully and concisely explained our will and Power of Attorney options, and quickly gathered the information needed to complete paperwork. Office staff handled subsequent amendments promptly. I would recommend this firm to anyone dealing with these issues.

Thanks very much for taking the time to leave a review.
