A big thank you to Abdul and the team! They have been absolutely brilliant throughout our first home buying experience to a point where we could just sit back and allow the process to flow knowing that Abdul was doing everything in his power to progress matters. We instructed Martin Tolhurst on 8 January 2025 and exchanged contracts on 14 February 2025. I am grateful for all your efforts and I would recommend your services to other friends and family.

First Time Buyer
I used Martin Tolhurst as my solicitors for buying my first property. Abdul has been fantastic, very quick responses to emails and always there to help. He helped make the process clear and easy. I would highly recommend Abdul at Martin Tolhurst - I will certainly be recommending to my friends and family.

Outstanding Service
We recently used Martin Tolhurst Solicitors for the purchase of our new home, and I honestly cannot praise them enough. From start to finish, Abdul, Abbie, and their team were incredibly professional, responsive, and above all, dedicated.
We were up against a very tight deadline due to the upcoming stamp duty increase, and the pressure was on to complete in time. Abdul, Abbie, and their team pulled out all the stops — working diligently, keeping us well-informed throughout, and pushing everything through with impressive speed and accuracy. Their hard work and commitment made what could have been a stressful experience smooth and manageable.
Thanks to their effort and efficiency, we completed just in time and saved a significant amount on stamp duty — something that would not have been possible without their support.
I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and hardworking solicitors.

Stress free sale.
Martin Tolhurst conducted the sale of our flat with the minimum of fuss. Very quick response to enquiries.

Very impressive, highly recommended
Working on a tight deadline they immediately swung into motion and kept me informed what was going on. Found them friendly and efficient. As a multi-property landlord I have had dealings with a few solicitors and can honestly say these are the best I've come across. Highly recommended.

Thank you Abdul and team
As you can imagine the process of buying a home can be very stressful (especially if it is your first). Abdul and his team made this process seamless by explaining each step of the process. Protecting our interest. Ensuring searches were carried out in a timely manner. We are pleased to have chosen Martin Tolhurst as our conveyancers thanks to Abdul and his team. We could not have been more satisfied with how the process went.

Would recommend and happily use again.
After a collapsed first sale it took a long time to reach completion with another buyer but despite this we were well looked after by Martin Tolhurst and Abdul especially over a period of over a year. Communication was frequent and smooth and any questions received a prompt reply. We would happily use Martin Tolhurst again. Many thanks to Abdul, Christine and Josh for their help throughout.

House Sale/House Purchase
Many thanks to Abdul & his team who dealt with the sale and purchase of our properties, which was not without issues, but we found the partnership to be professional and responsive in dealing with the process in a timely manner.

Customer Service. What Customer Service??
The ability of Abdul Mutallib at Martin Tolhurst Solicitors is beyond awful. I paid my fee upfront £550 (paid November last year) for conveyancing. Now I have a serious buyer who is pushing for closure after the first sale fell through in March. I have rung five times this week to ask if he could return my call. I have even emailed him. On top of which very time you call, you speak to one of the well spoken receptionist, who seem to be stapled to their chairs unable to say anything else but "I can pass on a message". Do they come from Stepford? I also left a message for Richard Carter the MD. I was warned I would to be unlikely to get past his PA and less than likely for him to respond. I was reluctant to pay upfront, but was told how they operate. Feels like I have been properly MUGGED.

Dear Joel, Richard Carter our managing partner spoke to you within 24 hours of your phone message. He explained that your matter was on hold following the loss of your buyer 4 months ago. You are hopeful that a new buyer has been found and will ask the agents to provide details to us as soon as this is all confirmed. You advised us you wish us to continue acting for you and we will be happy to do so. Kind regards, Ilaria Online Team

A moving experience
A tricky moving house process ( selling, buying, one sale falling through, probate delays) was handled professionally and in a timely manner. The fees were reasonable and all the people we dealt with were friendly and efficient.
