Zanna and her assistant Holly have recently dealt with my sale and purchase. The whole process was seamless and stress free. I was so impressed with how the matter was dealt with. The sale and purchase were progressed as quickly as possible and I was regularly kept updated. I will definitely be recommending Thornton Jones Solicitors. Thank you Zanna and Holly!

Always on hand to help move the sale along and they have an amazing app that shows how many steps are left during the process which is so helpful for first time buyers as it can be very overwhelming.

Excellent conveyancing support

5

Zanna, with the support of Holly, at Thornton Jones Garforth were my conveyancing solicitors for my recent house purchase. As a first time buyer I felt completely supported, they answered my questions and guided me through the process with professionalism and kindness and I would throughly recommend them to anyone looking for a convoyaging solicitor. Huge thanks to them for all their hard work!

A big thank you to Zanna and Holly for all their help in our recent house purchase. They were both very efficient and kept us up to date at all stages, plus were lovely and patient with our first time buyer’s nerves and many questions. Would highly recommend Thornton Jones.

Zanna helped us buy a house with the Council, which wasn't easy as the Council gave us some last-minute unpleasant surprises. I myself did not believe that it would work, but Zanna's professional approach and calmness made it possible to close the topic on time.
Never met Zanna or Holly in person but always I knew they are there to give me the answer.
It was my first purchase in a foreign country and this team made it so easy.
Thank you
Highly recommended

I was blown away by the quality of the service I received from Thornton Jones during the purchase of my property. From the initial quote all the way through to completion, they were communicative, proactive and efficient. I received prompt responses to my queries via email, staff I needed to speak to on the phone were always available when I rang and the app was amazing at helping me track exactly where I was up to at each stage of the process. I cannot recommend Thornton Jones enough! Zanna and Holly made a potentially very stressful few months a positive and supportive experience. Thank you!

Holly & Zanna were so helpful throughout the whole process. Being first time buyers we had no idea what to expect but they made sure they answered all of our questions even if it times they were silly ones! They made the process feel easy and completely stress free. Thank you to you both .

Initially dealt with Zanna and Holly. Zanna was initially rather abrupt and came across rude in some emails where we were asking questions as first time buyers. Holly didn’t seem to know the difference between £1,000 & £10,000 which was a bit concerning. Felt there was a lack of communication and we were initially given a timeline of 8-10 weeks which stretched to 15 weeks (initially instructed on 31/3 and completed 19/7). Wouldn’t recommend or use again.
