We had three different attempts at buying a property and we instructed Ema Jones to act as our solicitor for each one.
Ema Jones and Amber Walter helped on the first one, but sadly due to problems with the planning permission and the building we had to pull out from the purchase almost a year after the offer was accepted.
For the second attempt Ema and Gillian Towns worked really hard with a seller that in the end decided to pull the property out of the market in the week prior to exchange.
For the third attempt both Ema and Gillian Towns were again extremely professional and focused. The sale went from offer accepted to completion in less than 2 months and a few obstacles had to be navigated along the way. We are grateful to both Ema and Gill for their work which got us to completion.
I cannot recommend Ema Jones and Gillian Towns enough. They kept us informed at every step very efficiently and during the entire process were very thorough and proactive. I will not hesitate to ask Ema Jones and Gillian Towns to handle any future matters for us.

A property purchase can often be beset by complications and changing circumstances beyond a buyer's control. We are so pleased that you were third time lucky and that we were able to assist throughout! Delighted that this final transaction was able to be turned around quickly and that you were reassured by our service, despite set backs! Thank you for your excellent review of Ema and Amber's work.

Smoothest transaction ever...........
A big thank you to Amber, this was by far the easiest and smoothest transaction I have been involved in, both personally and professionally. I don't think I have ever had so little contact (in a good way) during the selling process. And the fees were more than reasonable. Would highly recommend.

Seamless leasehold purchase process
We were purchasing our first leasehold property and used Peacock & Co to provide conveyancing services. Ema and Amber were very professional and supportive with us, no matter how big or small our queries were, they were able to provide us with clear detail, guidance and an explanation when needed.

Reliable and thorough
As a first time buyer of a flat that hadn’t been sold for a while, I wanted to go with a trustworthy solicitors firm who would be thorough, have great legal knowledge and be a good at communicating - Amber and Ema at Peacock & Co delivered on all of this.

On Time and Faster than expected
Everything went well with Peacock & Co, communication and proactivity was good. My solicitor always available when needed to clarify aspects of the agreement/contract and provide further advice on the matter. Efficient, friendly and professional, I will use them again in the future.

Excellent & responsive conveyancers
This is the fourth property transaction I've been involved with, and the first one where I would happily recommend the conveyancers we used.
Ema and Amber at Peacock & Co were easy to get hold of and responded to any queries they had in a timely fashion. They were always clear on what they could advise us on, the different approaches that could be taken and associated risks, and what they would do in our shoes where appropriate. They were also happy to explain, re-explain and confirm our understanding where legal terms were not clear to us.
I would recommend them highly and will be using them again when we next have a property to buy or sell.

Flat sale and house purchase
We worked with Ema Jones and Amber Walter on both the sale of our flat in 2022 and subsequent purchase of our house in 2023. They are meticulous in their queries to the other parties to put our best interest at the forefront of both transactions. They were always happy to answer any queries we had, and to assist in chasing the other solicitors especially to move to completion on our house purchase.
