Judge for yourself

Purchased a property with 'no chain' for either party.

George Watson were recommended as having a good working relationship with other highly recommended solicitors representing the vendors EG Law.

All set for a swift transaction.

It took 4 weeks for our solicitors to be notified formally by EG law.

Process was slow but communication/ updates were not very regular.

There was action when prompted from our side, didn't seem overly proactive though.

It took 20 weeks to get to a place where the solicitors property report was ready.

In the meantime the vendors found a property to buy, so we were then in a chain.

No opportunity to discuss the property report (I had to set a deadline for this) as we were passed onto other solicitors due to ill health. It then became apparent that alot more was required to be done in the background to reach the target completion date.

There were plenty of ailments found with the property after the initial offer was accepted, there was no success i negotiating some shared responsibilities for these problems.

A transaction that had a lot of promise to be swift and simple was far from it.

Best Conveyancer/Solicitor!!!

5

I recently worked with Hayley George for the purchase of my family home, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. From the very beginning, Hayley was incredibly professional and communicative, ensuring I understood every step of the process.

One of the standout moments was when she quickly resolved a potential issue with my gifted deposit, saving me a lot of stress and potential delays. Hayley was always available to answer my questions, no matter how small, and provided clear, concise explanations.

Thanks to Hayley George's expertise, the entire transaction went smoothly, and I felt confident and supported throughout. I highly recommend George Watson to anyone in need of conveyancing services. They truly made the experience seamless and stress-free.

Hayley and Grant were absolutely amazing throughout the journey to buy our home. Fantastic communication, we never had to wait for a call or email back, they were always happy to talk through and explain what was happening. I would recommend them to anyone. They were both a pleasure to deal with and should we ever move in the future we will use their services again 😌

Great, as always

We’ve used Hayley numerous times for purchases and sales (having followed her at various companies) so when she set up her own business of course we were going to use her again. This time it was for our very own house move.
What sets Hayley apart from the rest is the personal touch, she understands just how stressful buying or selling property is and has more than once been the calm it what can seem like a never ending storm.
We’re currently buying another property (for our son this time) and hoping having Hayley on our side will help this purchase be as stress free as possible again.

I would highly recommend George Watson Solicitors. Hayley provided an absolutely excellent service during a recent purchase. She is extremely diligent and all communications were precise and clear. She managed the process expertly, and always made me feel she had everything in control. Buying a house can be extremely stressful and they took all of the stress out of it for us. They are a small firm and provide a 100times better service than the bigger companies that we have used in the past. Would definitely recommend. Thanks again!

As a mortgage broker I've worked with nearly all solicitors in the local area for conveyancing. Hayley is head and shoulders above the rest. She really goes the extra mile for clients and everyone I have referred to her has sung her praises for responsiveness, value & overall care for their transaction. Thanks Hayley!

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Hayley George from George Watson Solicitors Ltd for the excellent service she provided recently when I was selling my late mothers property in Great Yarmouth.

One of the big advantages of using Hayley is that the communication is excellent. She’s on the end of the phone whenever you need her, and she will work hard to push the process along as fast as she possibly can. Comparing her to the buyer’s conveyancing solicitor was like comparing night to day – what a difference!

Hayley, I’m extremely grateful to you, and I’m so pleased I chose you for the conveyancing. I’ll also recommend you highly to anyone I know who’s selling a property as I know they’ll be in good hands.

Yours Sincerely,
Mark Hibbitts
