Sarah smith dealt with both the selling of our house and the purchase of our new property. We found her to be efficient and professional. We were kept informed of what was happening and the whole process of both selling and purchasing was stress free. We were kept up to date by Sarah Smith and everything was handled efficiently and professionally. Backhouse offers value for money. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family. Thank you Sarah for your support.

Outstanding Service

Over the past few years we have used Backhouse Solicitors for a number of legal procedures, transfer of equity, LPA, Wills and lastly selling a property. The service has been absolutely first class. The property team have been absolutely amazing and I and my family will all ways be grateful for the excellent work that Sarah and Rebecca have done to expedite this matter.

Just completed my 3rd sale/purchase with Sarah S and as usual completed super quick and without fault. Particular shout out to Isabelle E who ensured emails and calls were responded to almost immediately every time and was great with my grumpy outbursts at our difficult buyers.

I used Backhouse Solicitors for conveyancing. As a first time buyer I was very satisfied with the way they handled my matter and the responsiveness and advice given by Sarah. Would use this firm again for further legal matters.

Fauntless service from start to finish. Conveyancer Sarah was personable, communicative and highly skilled and professional in taking me through each step to completion. Couldn't recommend Sarah and Backhouse enough - thank you for everything.

We used Backhouse for both selling our house and for purchasing our new home. Sarah Smith dealt with our case and was extremely efficient and helpful, keeping us up to date with each step. The whole process was stress free. We knew what the cost would be at the beginning, so we had no surprises at the end. I thought the service excellent, the cost reasonable and great value for money. I would definitely recommend BACKHOUSE to my friends and family.
Thank you.

Backhouse managed our recent home move from start to finish. Sarah and team were absolutely fantastic, kept us informed throughout and offered their expertise and advice along the way.

We felt in safe hands from the moment we met them and would recommend them without hesitation to friends & family.
