Such a brilliant solicitor
Debra Hepplestall (and assistant Harriet) were absolutely brilliant dealing with a difficult commercial sale on a tight deadline. They were so professional but also friendly and helpful. I can't thank them enough.

1st Class Service
Throughout our selling and purchasing journey, which was extremely challenging on numerous occasions, all at Easthams Solicitors were outstanding. I can honestly say I have never experienced anything close to the level of service from any other firm of Solicitors. Hannah, Deborah, Harriet, and Jade would regularly go above and beyond and it wouldn't be unusual for them to work over the weekends and even whilst on annual leave.
Whilst it is likely we won't require conveyancing in the future (but who knows), if we do, there is no doubt in our minds we will be calling on the services of Easthams again. Would I recommend to friends? 100%

Debra and Harriet
We were recommended to Debra at Easthams for the sale of our leasehold business and we have been delighted with the professional service that we received from both Debra and her assistant Harriet who were both helpful and easy to talk to. The sale of our business was not straightforward, due to others in the chain, but everything was dealt with efficiently, with support and information given throughout the process. I would highly recommend.

Debra at Easthams is somebody I immediately felt I could trust. She is so easy to talk to; and she was very helpful to me at a difficult time, which I appreciate beyond measure. I will definitely be using Easthams again for any future legal issues, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Buying & Selling property
We decided to choose Eastham's Solicitors from a recommendation.
We were in a chain of four which was not the easiest to deal with. Luke was our main Solicitor, with Jade as his assistant. Both Luke & Jade were both very professional at all times. We endured some stress, not due to our solicitor's but due to others in the chain. Both Luke & Jade made every effort to keep us updated and Jade was forever chasing up the other Solicitor's to get things moving.
I would like to thank both Luke & Jade for all their support and also thank Debra who finalised the completion due to Luke being on prebooked well deserved annual leave.
