We used Steve to sell our house and purchase our new family home as a part exchange with a large developer. We wanted to get the whole thing completed in 2 months, from instructing him to represent us to having the keys! Despite several hurdles along the way Steve worked hard for us and ensured we managed to get our move completed on time.
Steven (and the whole team at HSW) were open and transparent along the journey and ensured we know what was going on at each step. He was very helpful with all my naive questions and always put us at ease throughout the process. Moving house is a particularly stressful experience but using Steven as our solicitor took a massive load of stress away!
We will definitely use Steve again when moving house in the future.

I initially became a client of Hall Smith Whittingham in 2018, with the family law department, and received excellent support and service throughout a very difficult period. I subsequently required a conveyancing solicitor and had no hesitation in appointing Michael Wright and his team at Hall Smith Whittingham.
I was looking for a relatively quick turnaround with a property transfer and Michael worked hard to achieve this successfully, whilst applying a meticulous and consistently high quality approach towards the whole conveyancing process. Michael has since dealt with the conveyancing for 2 further properties for my family, a true testament to the excellent, efficient and effective service delivered by him and his team.

Steven has been a great help to me and my family in dealing with two property sales. After providing the initial information in both cases, we had very little to do as Steven was able to manage and complete the sales with very little fuss.

I have used the services of Hall Smith Whittingham on several occasions and cannot rate the service Steven and his team provide highly enough. Selling and purchasing a property is one of the most stressful and nerve racking experiences an individual encounters regardless of how many times you've done it in the past. Steven helped me with my first solo house purchase over 12 years ago and I've been back to him without hesitation over and over again . Unlike previous solicitors I have dealt with in the past Steven is on the case from the offset, always available if you need to talk over a concern or worry and if he's not available at the time of calling always contacts you back in a timely manner. He provides constant updates and if he is going to be away informs you and has a colleague briefed so you aren't left without a point of contact should you need help and assistance. Don't bother looking anywhere else, you don't need anyone else, just call Steven. Job Done!

I have instructed Michael Wright at HSW on a number of occasions over the years and have recommended him to a number of friends and family members. Michael is extremely knowledgable and his team are always happy to help in a friendly and professional manner. The recent transition to an on-line portal has improved the process in a positive way - ensuring transparency throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend him to propective clients in pursuit of an outstanding service.

Since moving to the area we have used Hall Smith Whittingham on 3 occasions. Each time we have found them very professional and efficient. They have been proactive and offered good advise when we have encountered situations where we ourselves have had no prior experience.

Steven Coles has carried out many residential conveyencing matters for me over a period of almost 20 years and I can thoroughly recommend his services. I have always found Steven to be helpful, concise, and efficient, along with being a good communicator and always pro-active at achieving the end goal as smoothly as possible.

Our house move back in July wasn't straight forward and was delayed at the last minute due to complications down the chain. Martyn Measures and William pulled out all the stops to help us to progress. Martyn kept us informed all the way through the process, even when he was on holiday!! All our concerns were listened to and answered and we felt very well looked after through the whole process. Paperwork was fully explained to us and service was prompt, professional and efficient. Thank you for your excellent service. We highly recommend you and will not hesitate to return to you in the future for any legal needs or advice.

I instructed Michael Wright and his team Emma Walley and Samantha Herring for my purchase. They were fantastic. Very professional, always kept me updated, they were easy to contact, and responsive. Achieved a quick completion without any issues. Would use again, and would recommend to anyone wanting their transaction to be handled by the best.
