My partner and I recently purchased our first home and as first time buyers didn't really have any idea about we were doing but Anne Austin and her team made this a very easy and quick process for us both. She was always on hand to answer any questions we had, delivered speedy responses and was just all round fantastic and so efficient. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you!

Client testimonial about Claire Hunter - FamilyWHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
It's really only in hindsight that I fully appreciate the support Amy gave me through the whole rather protracted business. Unsurprisingly perhaps, there were times when feelings of shame, regret, of having let everyone down, in particular my family, turned towards self-loathing. But Amy, by just sitting having a chat while we were waiting around, helped me hang on to some semblance of a positive sense of who I am. I am immensely grateful to her.

Brilliant firm, June Holmes was amazing for me. She dealt with my case professionally and her knowledge in the area was fantastic. June showed care and empathy through a very difficult and important period of my life. I could not recommend her and the firm more. Having such a great solicitor makes a big difference. June puts time and a lot of effort in; her communication skills throughout the process were faultless. This was my first experience with this firm and I will always know where to come first.

I can't praise Kay enough for the conveyancing cases she handled for me. She always updated me as soon as there was information and was proactive in following up with the mortgage company and other solicitors. Kay couldn't have been more helpful and patient despite things changing. She was very reassuring to talk to and knows what she's talking about. I will definitely use David Gray again.

Bryony, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the assistance you have provided. I have been to [my UKVCAS appointment] at the Library and everything went quite well. [The officer] said everything looked perfect and she did not have to see any hard copies (thanks to you) because she believed whatever you had uploaded was good enough. Thank you again for doing all the hard work for me. If I had to do all this I would have collapsed.
