case worker Londjana was a pleasure to deal with, and had the leadership of John O'Callaghan if needed. Would recommend and use again.

Highly Recommend - Great Professional Service for purchasing a home
Some of the best solicitors I know, Horia and John made an ace team and completed on my matter in no time at all (basically a couple weeks). Could not recommend these two highly enough. Was kept up to date at all times via email about any news, and they always had time to answer my calls. Very professional and responsive with a real understanding of what they do. 10/10 service.

Good conveyancing experience
A few hiccups at the beginning but once we got over these we had a great working relationship.
I always felt I got good, sound, sensible advice and could ask any questions, however silly they might have sounded. John was really approachable.
