These guys were recommended to complete a commercial property purchase as per auction in 28 days which they did efficiently and good communication which we know isn’t always the case with solicitors! I would highly recommend and use again

We normally go to a larger solicitors for all our services but due to the other buyer being the executor we needed to find another solicitor. I did what I usually do and asked on Facebook for advice and Thornton Jones came up as a good local solicitor for house moves, so we connected with them. We had quite a complicated house move (well if felt complicated to me, but it might have been normal to them) with probate taking much longer than expected and lots of miscommunications with the executor also being the solicitor from the other firm. But Anna and Olivia dealt with them all in a calm, reassuring way. I would not hesitate to recommend them for house moves, their knowledge and expertise was incredible and reassuring. Making sure that every little detail was checked off before willing to proceed. I really hope not to move again, but I would certainly use again if I am crazy enough to attempt it! Thank you ladies for making such a stressful event as smooth as possible.

"Stuart Knox and Geraldine Micallef provided fantastic guidance and support throughout our commercial property lease. They ensured our interests were fully protected and maintained clear, reassuring communication from start to finish. Geraldine kept the process moving smoothly, handled logistics and communication efficiently, and was always available to answer questions and chase things up when time was of the essence. Brilliant client service from a dedicated team—thank you both!"

I had used Thornton Jones for the first time to purchase some land adjacent to where I live and Stuart Knox provided a great service. I have now used them again to sell my brother's house and Alison and Rachele have also provide an excellent service. The sale went through with no problems and they gave great advice. Costs were very reasonable too. I can recommend Thornton Jones and will not hesitate to use them again.
