Handled very professionally. I was kept fully informed of progress and received timely suggestions as to matters I needed to attend to with utilities etc.

We recently sold a property, and from the moment of being instructed, everyone at Crane and Staples , and particularly Kuldip Chima and Katie Smit, were a first class.

Exemplary service

5

We sold one property and bought another, but there were legal complications and timing issues. All problems were dealt with promptly, efficiently and with a minimum of fuss. Communication was excellent and, on two occasions, received email updates well outside office hours. We were initially quoted a price for the work which was fair and, despite some unexpected additional issues, the quoted price was adhered to.

Excellent service - great value - highly recommend

5

My house purchase went through without any hitches, I was kept fully informed and everyone I dealt with at Taylor Rose TTKW was first class, quick to respond and knew their stuff - in fact they were better than the solicitors I previously used - so a face to face service does not add value.

Purchasing of 24 Kent Gardens , Braintree

I'm really pleased with the way the team at Taylor Rose Bishops Stortford - Kuldip Chima and Tommy Adeyemi handled my conveyancing .

They were always pleasant , efficient and kept me informed .They had to continually deal with a less than perfect response from third parties and the Covid 19 pandemic ,This resulted in them having to carryout quite a bit of additional work but they went the extra mile and stuck to their promise to get the deal over the line and registered.Many thanks to them.

We have just sold our house in Knebworth using Crane and Staples for the legal side. We cannot praise our solicitor Kuldip Chima highly enough. The whole process was completed in record time and Kuldip dealt with everything professionally, promptly and with great care. We felt thoroughly supported at all stages by her and would highly recommend her.

I can not praise this company highly enough. My Father has used them for all things legal for many years and I can understand why. I have just had to sell his house as power of attorney and Kuldip could not have made it easier for me (even with dealing with estate agents that gave me nothing but hassle).
From start to finish everything was dealt with diligently and professionally and I felt supported through what was a difficult time. Thank you.
Would highly recommend.

Thank you to Kuldip Chima for helping us with our first house purchase. The process became very long and drawn out due to matters beyond our control, and was also impacted by Corona.
Kuldip persevered and regularly chased the relevant parties to ensure we were on track and was very thorough with everything. Thank you for all your work and getting us over the line.

Our solicitor Kuldip Chima was excellent throughout the whole conveyancing process. She never failed to keep us updated and was always easy to get hold of when needed. Most of our transaction was dealt with online/by email which suited us perfectly. Even in the middle of lockdown when everything was more difficult Kuldip and her team persevered for us and got us in our new home. We were purchasing a reprosession new build under difficult circumstances and her thoroughness and dedication to our purchase (and sale) was faultless and professional throughout. Highly recommended solicitor.
