Sale of 13 Mallinson Road

The sale of our house which has been in the family since 1933 was a somewhat daunting task, however the conveyancing was carried out flawlessly.

Many thanks to Nic Dino and his team for their help.
Kind regards,

John M

I sold a house recently and Nic Dino was the solicitor who assisted with this. It was a very smooth transition and Nic was really helpful and professional. The advice I was given was fab and I would definitely use Woodfines and Nic again.

Gillian provided an excellent service, she was very approachable and was immediately at ease. I felt very supported and had full confidence in her. I found myself in an unfamiliar and unusual situation and Gillian went out of her way to find out information to enable me to make the best decisions available. She was also able to provide advise which helped me solve practical problems.

Excellent comprehensive service provided.
In particular Nic was very cognisant of my elderly father’s needs and patient in explaining the process, making it straightforward. This was much appreciated by the family.

Marianna was an absolute star throughout the entire purchasing process. Her communication was excellent, and she was incredibly diligent in making sure we got all of the information we needed. She gave excellent advice and support through every step, and we couldn't be happier. We would not hesitate to use Woodfines again and would definitely recommend them in the future. Thank you so much!

Nic Dino and his team once again did a fantastic job for the sale of my house. This was probably my 3rd house sale/buy through Nic in the last 10 years. Nic guided me through each step, protected my interests and pushed back unacceptable requests from the Buyer's solicitor. and patiently explained risks for any agreement i would like to make. I am very happy with the services from Woodfines Cambridge. I'd give more than 5 stars review to Nic Dino.

A situation was suddenly put in front of me at work regarding either termination of my employment or a settlement agreement, I was part of the management team, I have used Woodfines solicitors before to deal with a estate I inherited, I contacted Woodfines of Cambridge to see if they could assist me with me with this daunting situation, I had a lovely lady called Michelle Bruce who was extremely professional & reassured me that she could deal with the situation & that she did, Michelle went out of her way to help me and get the the best possible outcome for me financially, Michelle was able to negotiate what I would call a fair compensation sum.
I could not recommend Michele Bruce enough, I am just your average working man with a family, if you find yourself in the same situation please do contact Michelle as I can reassure you she will be able to help you get the best possible outcome.
Thank you Michelle on behalf of myself and my family.

Nicola and everyone I dealt with at Woodfines were amazing. It was third time lucky with my house sale in end after two failed process due to issues on buyers side. Nicola pulled out all the stops to ensure my house closed the day before my wedding which was a tight deadline.

Throughout this stressful process Nicola was always really responsive, friendly and helpful. No conveyancer I have used in the past has ever been this responsive so am so happy I was lucky in finding Woodfines and Nicola.

Thanks so much Nicola!
