Brilliant Customer Service

Having used a previous firm to deal with my case. I switched to Cygnet Law where I was then contacted by Zakia. From start to finish Zakia went above and beyond and turned my and my children’s life’s around for the better. I will be forever grateful to Zakia and Cygnet Law.

5 star conveyancing experience

I was selling my house with cygnet law and had James Gallagher as my solicitor. Can’t speak more highly of James - explained everything, always replied to emails promptly. Great experience and will be using James again in the near future. Couldn’t recommend him more.

We recently used Cygnet Law to act as the conveyancer for our sale/purchase and were dealt with by James and Melanie who we can't thank enough; they were highly professional and supportive throughout the whole process and none of it felt quite as stressful as we had expected.
We would highly recommend them and won't think twice about using Cygnet Law again, should we ever need to!

A relative passed away and we needed help with their will and probate. We were told by a friend that Gemma Brooke was the best at dealing with this. On our very first meeting with Gemma she was very friendly and made us feel at ease. She told us not to worry and that she would take care of everything. Well, I can honestly say that Gemma has gone above and beyond at keeping us informed every step of the way. When she hasn't been available her assistants Stephanie and Emily have been at hand for everything. Overall, outstanding and very much appreciated.

Simply amazing. Vicci, Kath and most recently Aimee, they have all been outstanding. Would not consider using any other firm. What has been a very stressful sale and purchase of two properties Cygnet have consistently delivered and pushed them both through which is all you could ask for. Thanks so much everyone X
