Excellent service
In the difficult and stressful process of moving house, one needs a solicitor who handles the transactions efficiently and responds to concerns promptly. Nicola was exemplary in all these respects. Highly professional in her work, she guided us through the various processes clearly. She has an open, friendly manner and was always available when needed. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
