Shared Ownership

5

I would like to extend a big 'thank you' to Philip and Danya who acted for me with my recent purchase of a shared ownership new build house. Moving house is always stressful, but I could always rely on them to keep me updated and to ensure a smooth transaction to completion. Bright Solicitors were recommended to me by the sales team as they were familiar with the development, and they did not let me down. Thank you again for your support and expertise. I would definitely recommend you to someone else in the same position as me!

Absolutely fantastic!

5

We have recently sold and purchased a new property. It turned out to be a difficult process that lasted over 8 months and we were at a point where we thought it will just not happen, we will not get to completion. We are now in our new home, thanks to Danya especially, and Philip who have put in the work to make this happen for us. Their perseverance, expertise and dedication aided in our achievement.
The responses to our emails were received within the hour, and nothing was too much. Anything we were not sure of, Danya and Philip were happy to explain either through email or by phone.
I am so happy I chose Bright Solicitors and they will definitely be first choice firm for the future.

Exceptional conveyancing service

Bright have been very good from beginning to end on the purchase of our new build home. From the initial call to completion has taken just 5 weeks, and we haven't had to chase them once. Everyone involved including Danya, Philip and Jemma have been professional and helpful.

Property Purchase

I used Bright Solicitors, in particular Philip Williams and Max Williams, to buy my first home. They were incredibly professional, efficient and approachable and I would not hesitate to recommend them. All of my queries were answered in a swift manner, and the team made the purchase process for me as a first-time buyer completely stress free.

Whow - Excellent Service

5

Bright Solicitors were one in a million because of the additional help they gave me. As an overseas purchaser, the unknown processes and procedures to purchase a UK property were daunting and complicated. Bright 'led' me through the entire journey logically answering every questions with patience and complete clarity. They ensured all legal processes were professionally and thoroughly dealt with. I thank Bright Solicitors for getting me to the finishing post ! You were all amazing and I will only ever use you as my UK Solicitor. Thank you

I'd like to thank Bright Solicitor and express our gratitude, with special thanks to Philip and Danya for their excellent work they did in the sale of my old property and the purchase of my new one. They have been so helpful in the conveyancing process and in the transfer of equity. The communication has been excellent, keeping us regularly updated throughout the whole process, which ran very smoothly. I cannot thank them enough and would definitely use their services again and would highly recommend them. Thanks again.

We looked at previous reviews when choosing our Solicitor to purchase our new home and really glad we went with Bright Solicitors. Danya and Philip helped me with purchasing my shared ownership property and they were brilliant. I can’t fault their efforts in communicating well with me through my process and making every effort to speedily get the sale completed so I can move into our new home. Due to our circumstances and the fact we needed to move fast they were excellent and it was much appreciated from me. I fully would recommend going with them when you are looking to choose a Solicitor.
