CILEx Lawyer & Licensed Conveyancer at Elite Law Solicitors Limited

Emma Leighton-Carey

CILEx Lawyer & Licensed Conveyancer

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.

Elite Law Solicitors were recommended via our property developer, the service received was friendly, approachable, very professional and value for money, with excellent communication and a very proactive approach at all stages (selling and buying), we had no reason to question any of the advice given.

Very professional service

5

We received a very competitive quote for selling our house and for buying our new build. We found Emma to be very friendly and helpful and extremely professional. Getting in touch with her was never a problem and we received lots of information regarding each process and were kept fully updated.
The process of selling was quite stressful but Emma really took the strain and fought our behalf to get things resolved quickly and efficiently. We would have no hesitation in recommending Emma or elite law to anyone.

Emma was absolutely fantastic from start to finish, communications were always timely and really clear. We felt in safe hands all the way through what felt like a long drawn out sale. We will definately be recommending.

Emma is a star

5

Emma assisted with my flat purchase with the upmost professionalism and made a very stressful process as smooth as possible. The purchase of the property had several complicated elements and Emma made me feel completely supported throughout. Her constant communication and knowledge of processes made me feel at complete ease. I will be recommending Emma to anyone and everyone who has a conveyancing need. Could not recommend her enough.
