Brilliant service

This review is for a different branch.

I contacted numerous solicitor firms before speaking with Eve, and the difference was immediately clear. She was friendly, kind, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient with all of my questions.

Eve took the time to explain everything in a way that made sense to me, additionally offering me her line if I thought of anything else post call. Her professionalism and approachable manner instantly put me at ease. She made me feel confident proceeding with PA.

Once I made the final call to instruct, Eve was again on hand, calling promptly and was genuinely helpful. Thank you to Eve, for making what an overwhelming process feel so much smoother.

I am confident that the service will continue in this way

Although I had not heard of them before, I decided to use Poole Alcock Solicitors based on on-line reviews, my research of them and price. I'm pleased to say that it was a good decision. They handled my house sale efficiently and professionally reaching completion as quickly as they could have. The pre-sale information from the company was very helpful and James Williams and his team kept me up to speed throughout the process. My experience was drama free and they always responded to my inputs promptly and in a friendly and helpful way. Overall, a very positive experience.

My conveyancing team were professional, prompt and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. It was always easy to get in touch with them and they responded to almost all of my queries the same day. The efficiency of their work made me feel reassured that despite the issues I faced during my house purchase, the conveyancing was in very good hands!

James Williams in particular was brilliant in all aspects of my case. He was clearly very experienced and always knew what he was doing or what advice to give. It was easy to get in touch with him and his team, and was efficient in ensuring everything I required was taken care of. He also always made me feel like he was “on my side”, which was reassuring when I had to navigate difficult or awkward issues.
