I am very happy with the work done by Chris and his team in the purchase and sale of my properties. They were prompt with replies to queries and managed to steer a sometimes difficult sale through with a minimum of fuss.

The entire conveyancing team at the Newbury branch were fantastic from the first email sent to the final completion of our onward property. A difficult sale and purchase was handled fantastically by not only Chris Dale but the entire team who were in constant communication. We would highly recommend Gardener Leaders services to anyone who needs them.

Gardner Leader have represented our family in a littany of matters to date. Most recently through a challenging house sale and subsequently, an equally, if not more challenging purchase, their expertise and support were invaluable. Their attention to detail and willingness to help and advise, even when emotion is running high, is highly commendable.

The Gardner Leader experience has again proven to be one typified by excellence. The perseverance, professionalism, knowledge and efficiency of the team, particularly Beth, was second to none. Having used their services for three different areas of legal support in the last year, we would not hesitate to wholeheartedly recommend Gardner Leader and will undoubtedly be using them again in the future.
