Commercial Lease

5

Lana and Asif were both incredibly helpful in what turned out to be a very dragged out commercial lease. They kept me in the loop at all times and provided great advice along the way.
Would certainly use the firm again

Brilliant and exceptional service provided from the team at Francis and George especially Asif who was dealing with my claim directly with the help of Lana also. Would definitely recommend and were always happy to answer any queries I had regarding my claim.

Excellent Service from the whole team at Francis George

Asif and Lana were great throughout the whole process and were instrumental in ensuring we received the payment from a client without having to go to court. Communication was clear and quick as is always the case with the team. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to my clients or friends.

Great from start to finish

Lana dealt with a rather tricky transfer of equity, dragged on a long time (no fault of hers!) constantly chased who she needed too and kept me in the loop all the time, extremely professional and kept me at ease throughout the process

Grateful for Conveyancing Expertise

5

Today we completed the sale of my late father's home in Swindon, a home that's been in our family since 1967. Having lived in the United States for the last 40 years, I was very dependent on good service from a reliable solicitor to bring the process to a conclusion. I highly recommend Yasmin Mahmoud, along with her colleague Lana James, for her attention to detail, her communications, her good planning, and her friendly spirit. I also commend the conveyancing group within their company for giving a very sensible estimate of how long things would take, managing my expectations, helping me understand that the entire process would take many weeks. I can't imagine I'll ever sell a home in the UK again, but if I did, I would very happily work with Yasmin again.
