High Regard for our Solicitor

We have dealt with Mr Willoughby for some thirty years now - in selling and purchasing property. It is always a pleasure to meet him again. The main satisfaction is in dealing with the same person throughout this time, and we hope to continue to do so.

excellent service

We instructed CW Booth to act for us in the recent sale of our property in Bishop Auckland.

We received excellent service from them and would 100% recommend them. We would particularly like to thank Amy Archer for her helpful and efficient service.

Superb lawyer

Mr Jandoo represented my partner recently, he was very polite and professional, he was honest and explained everything so we could understand easily. He was easy to contact and remained in regular contact with us to update us of what was going on behind the scenes, he went above and beyond to ammend the situation and get the best possible outcome. He was reliable and Pricing was laid out before hand, our conformation always seeked before anything carried out.
He genuinely cares and shows great compassion for his role and customers. He literally is one the nicest most genuine good soles of this earth. We can not thank him enough. Highly recommended as an individual and company 5*+

I am an estate agent and was involved in what should have been a straightforward purchase by a first time buyer, buying an empty property. C W Booth were acting for the sellers and the property was empty. In turned out to be a tad more complicated due to a notice place on the property. Also the buyers solicitors were seriously dreadful (personally I would avoid Claire at Michael Cook at all costs). Thankfully we got fantastic comms from Robert Willoughby and those comms helped in exposing the buyers sols for telling untruths/being inept. So thank you Robert (and Louisa) for providing updates on a regular basis and helping get the transaction finally over the line.

We have a dedicated team of solicitors who will deal with your case in a professional, efficient and friendly manner every step of the way. We offer a free initial interview at which we will be happy to discuss costs and, where appropriate, the availability of legal aid. In certain circumstances a home visit may be arranged.

In criminal cases we offer a 24-hour police station service which is always free of charge. We provide representation in both the Magistrates’ Court and Crown Court, and maintain close ties with counsels’ chambers in Teesside, Newcastle and London.
