I considered a number of solicitors for my flat purchase. Gordons (specifically Mike Slade) were the best value for money and were confident in the tightest timeline. Mike certainly delivered, turning the entire process from offer to completion around in just six weeks. Could not recommend him more - always available and on hand for questions, supplied and reviewed all documents properly, and guided me through the entire process.

Highly Recommend Michael Slade as a Solicitor
Finding a solicitor who not only excels in their field but also embodies qualities of empathy and reliability can be akin to finding a needle in a haystack. However, my recent experience with Michael Slade has reaffirmed my belief that exceptional legal professionals do exist.
From the moment I engaged Mike to facilitate the purchase of my flat, it was evident that I was in capable hands. One of the standout attributes of Mike is his unwavering commitment to being on top of things. His attention to detail and thorough understanding of the legal intricacies involved instilled in me a sense of confidence that permeated throughout the entire process.
Promptness is a virtue that Mike embodies effortlessly. Regardless of the time or nature of my inquiries, He was consistently swift in his responses, ensuring that no query lingered unanswered and no issue persisted unresolved. This level of responsiveness not only expedited the proceedings but also fostered an environment of transparency and trust, which is invaluable in any legal undertaking.
Perhaps what truly sets Mike apart is his ability to empathize and provide comfort during moments of stress and uncertainty. Purchasing a property is undeniably one of life's most significant investments, and it comes with its fair share of anxieties. Yet, Mike was not only a legal guide but also a pillar of support, offering reassurance and understanding when the complexities of the process seemed overwhelming.
In summation, my experience with Michael Slade has been nothing short of exemplary. His proficiency, responsiveness, empathy, and guidance have not only facilitated a smooth property purchase but have also left an indelible impression of professionalism and integrity. For anyone seeking legal assistance in property matters, I wholeheartedly recommend Michael Slade .

AVOID
If I were you, I'd avoid using this company at all. Extremely unprofessional, bad advice + service all round, and just uninterested in their clients. No attention to detail or care. I used Mike Slade to sell my property, never again. Mistakes and ill advice he gave cost me money, and his poor attention to detail meant the sale took 5 months - 2 months where he had no reason to give me for the delay.
Even my formal complaint wasn't dealt with professionally, with the director James Gordon telling me numerous times he "hadn't read it properly" or reviewed it. Rude and shockingly unprofessionally bad solicitor firm.

Michael makes the whole process stress free.
I have utilized Michael for circa 4 house acquisitions and disposals over a 15 year period. I have nothing but positives for the way he works and conducts his affairs. All the team you interact always seem very helpful and knowledgeable. I do recommend your services, my oldest son having used you for his first property acquisition. Michael makes the whole process stress free, which is much appreciated!

Mike helped me to complete it on time perfectly.
My purchase was a re-assignment contract of a new development. The timescale of the whole process was very tight.
