Review of conveyancing by Smith & Co Solicitors

I was very pleased with the professional service for conveyancing provided by Smith & Co. Pauline Hodgson was very approachable and explained clearly what was required. Her communication skills were excellent and she was extremely helpful and understanding. Would highly recommend.

Moving Home (Wellfield)

5

I have found dealing with Pauline and her team at FJG Solicitors a rewarding and efficient service. I was informed every step of the way of what was happening and when there were some unforeseen issues to deal with quickly, Pauline advised me immediately,and when required, advised me what action too take based on her experience of these issues. The value (cost) was excellent.

Overall, what can be a stressful situation, was made much easier by Pauline and her team, and because of this, at no stage was I in panic mode. Thank you..

Happy ending

5

Well both Pauline and Coral were excellent from the start.

They were constantly updating me with what was happening as there was a few complications along the way.

On the day of exchange Coral worked late to see it over the line as it had been a stressful period then personally called to give me the. Good news that I was ecstatic about.

Then on day of completion had regular contact throughout the day and even after care has been great.

Really treated well so friendly and helpful would 100 % recommend to family and friends

Thank you ladies

First Class Service and will highly recommend

Excellent service and great communication throughout the process. It was easier to speak directly with Pauline and Team (Coral), when needed for updates, and transparency. Will certainly recommend as it was also good value for money and the team was amazing.

Efficiency at its best

5

Pauline and Coral were absolutely amazing on both our sale and purchase.

Things were dealt with at a really fast pace and they chased up all parties when necessary.

They spotted things on our purchase that lesser solicitors may have not and responded to them with aplomb.

I would not hesitate in recommending Pauline and her team in Frinton and don't think we could have found a better solicitor if we had tried. We have sold and purchased three times before and the service from FJG Frinton was second to none.

Thank you all so much - you have made our dream home a reality.
