I am a dual-qualified lawyer specialising in residential conveyancing. I qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive in 2020 and a Licensed Conveyancer in 2023, and have over 11 years’ experience in dealing with a variety residential conveyancing transactions. I have worked in Bristol and South Gloucestershire for my whole career, and still work remotely in Bristol. Since 2017 I have specialised in acting for clients purchasing new build homes directly from Developers. As well as new build conveyancing, I deal with the purchase of older properties, the sale of property, re-mortgages, Help to Buy loan redemptions, and some Transfer of Equity work. I deal with clients across the country, they do not need to be based in Bristol. I pride myself on my quick response times to assist my clients in meeting their exchange deadlines. I believe that clients should be regularly updated - and as I am a Consultant, clients will deal with me personally, rather than being passed to an unqualified team or admin staff. I support my clients personally from start to finish. If you think I can assist you in any way, please do not hesitate to get in touch for a free, no obligation, estimate.

Good guidance and direction from start to finish.
Emma our solicitor was brilliant, providing professional advice and guidance throughout the whole "buying a new house" process. Clear guidence and help with documents/contract preparation and negotiating key dates.
Would recommend for ease and guidance during a potential stressful/exciting time in life.
Thank you Emma for all your help.

Don’t think twice
Emma was superb from first interaction to the last, for our house sale and purchase. Every communication was clear and efficient and using Emma made the whole move soooo much better an experience. I cannot recommend anyone as highly as I would for Emma. She promptly answered my phone calls, emails and any queries we had. She made us feel at ease knowing we had her on our side.
She did such a fantastic job the estate agency has added her to their recommended Solicitors list.

Amazing - Absolutely Amazing!
I had a very tight timescale to sell and purchase. Historically found many lawyers in this area of conveyancing falling back to automated processes, forms, voicemail, and constant chasing for updates. NOT with Emma… she was ‘on it’ keeping me constantly updated, doing everything she could to remove the headache of the process, and for me personally it was always a blessing that whenever I called she picked up and dealt with me direct and resolved any query or concern. Honestly couldn’t have asked for better. A blessing to have dealt with during a challenging process and timescale. Thank You

Excellent service
We were recommended to use Emma by REDROW homes as we were purchasing one of their properties. Previous experience with this wasn’t so good but I have to say that Emma was absolutely fantastic, very approachable and explained everything to us. Very quick to respond to any questions. We have already referred family members to Emma and we will be using her services again in the future. Definitely recommend her services.5*.
