    Stacey and the Milner team were extremely helpful and proactive throughout the process. They demonstrated a high level of diligence and professionalism in their approach. Despite a very tight timeframe, they went above and beyond to ensure everything was agreed efficiently and worked tirelessly to secure the best possible outcome for us.

    Excellent conveyancing

    John Robson, assisted by his colleagues, was incredibly painstaking throughout the whole conveyancing period of buying a flat in London. I’d found him through my union Equity and his costs were very reasonable for a lot of work! Not only was John very friendly, his attention to detail was excellent, particularly with things which weren’t completely straightforward, so we felt in very safe hands throughout. We would definitely recommend him and Milners.

      I can’t recommend Milners - Close Thornton Solicitors highly enough! They provided an outstanding service when helping my 18-year-old son purchase his first home, taking him from offer to completion in just 11 weeks! From the very beginning, their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive. They kept us informed at every stage, explained everything clearly, and were always quick to respond to any questions we had. What really stood out was how smoothly they managed the entire process—something that can often feel overwhelming, especially for a first-time buyer. They made my son feel confident and reassured throughout, which meant a lot as this was such a big milestone for him. Their dedication and attention to detail ensured everything stayed on track and completed within an impressive timeframe. We’re extremely grateful for their hard work and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and proactive solicitor. Thank you for making this such a positive and stress-free experience!
