Started off a bit haphazard with 1 solicitor
Melinda then took over and everything went very smoothly
I was also impressed with Danielle Fenn who handled the conveyancing

The solicitors were exceptional
The Birmingham based solicitor and her staff gave an exceptional service under extremely challenging circumstances.
I gave 4* rating due to the attitude of their Bromsgrove based conveyancer whose conduct was rude and unprofessional. His boss apologised, he didn't.
I'd recommend the solicitors, not the conveyancer.

100% trust
After meeting Melinda through BNI, I soon got a good understanding of Melinda's professional offering in Wills, Trusts and Estate Planning. Since this first interaction I would 100% trust Melinda with any of my clients and I know she will take good care of them. I would highly recommend Melinda and her Firm mfg Solicitors LLP. Simple or complex, I know Melinda can sort it for me.
