The team were always polite, communication could be improved. It is not appropriate in my view that we should be requesting updates - sharing information with the client should be a given.

We've used Gardner Leader now for close to 10 years who have provided conveyancing for us on 4 house purchases along with a couple of personal legal matters.

Extremely professional throughout any engagement, great attention to detail and rapid to respond to any query. In fact, Stuart and his team have gone over and above our expectations on a number of occasions we wouldn't use anyone else.

Cannot recommend them highly enough, thank you team.
