Quick and efficient!

My wife and I were selling our first home and moving up the ladder into a bigger family home and used Batchelor Sharp for both the sale and purchase.

We are so glad that we did. From instruction to eventual completion they have kept us in the loop with everything, responded quickly to emails and enquiries and have made the whole process a lot less stressful than it could have been.

We had the added pressure of needing to complete before the stamp duty increase which they managed to achieve so we moved in a week before the deadline.

Very impressed and satisfied with Emma and Jagoda and would definitely instruct them for further purchases and sales in the future.

Great service

Lovely solicitors, were so friendly and responsive buying my first home. Made the process easy and less stressful, the only hold up was the estate agents but Kieran helped keep my calm through the process.

Awful experience

I would not recommend to anyone. The entire process of selling a property in a two-person chain took eight months. Communication was extremely poor - I never received updates unless I actively chased for them, leaving me doubtful that any progress was being made. On several occasions my emails went unanswered.

To make matters worse, during the crucial week when contracts were supposed to be exchanged and completion finalised, Kieran was on holiday. The locum covering, Lucy, appeared completely unaware of this plan suggesting there was no clear handover to her. Her attitude was both unprofessional and rude; she even accused me of fabricating the agreed completion date despite a clear email trail. Her unhelpful attitude caused a delay of over a week in completing, ultimately forcing my buyer to break the chain to secure their own sale. To top it all off, my completion letter was sent to the wrong address entirely. Overall, the experience was unnecessarily stressful and disappointing.

Super fast and attentive

Jackie and Marie and the team at Batchelor Sharp oversaw the conveyancing for my recent home move. It was a long and complicated chain and they were always on top of things and kept it proceeding to completion. Super fast and attentive and good value for money as well. Would recommend.

So often with the explosion of social media we hear negative comments before positive ones, however, having been involved and owned many companies and personally bought and sold a great many properties with many diverse legal teams, Ann has shined, and has been representing me for almost 20 years and still goes above and beyond to create a clear and transparent but most of all diligent, flawless service.

Ann is quite simply a credit to Batchelor Sharp, I cannot say more than that!

I’m currently in the middle of a straight forward process of removing someone from a couple of properties and from mortgages as part of my divorce settlement. It’s been very slow progress, lack of communication, lost emails, and added costs for works and more paperwork. Making the final steps of a divorce more stressful than it needs to be. Having bought and sold many properties via Batchelor Sharp the new guard are the worst I’ve ever experienced and wouldn’t recommend them currently.

Really impressed with this solicitors. I really struggle with paper work and my poor dyslexic mind can't take it!
Kieran was really good, at breaking everything down and explaining everything in a format I could understand. Highly recommend.
