Excellent Service

I was warned by my estate agents that the average conveyancing was taking an average of 16 weeks and we exchange after seven. Everyone I dealt with delivered a high level of professional service.

Best solicitors I've ever used

I had to find a new solicitor's firm recently and as EMG had opened a new office in my town I decided to take a gamble and try them. I've used their conveyancing department, their litigation department and their Wills department, liaising with various different staff members.

EMG are friendly, approachable, thorough, efficient and I always knew I was in safe hands. The vendor whose house I bought was envious at how excellent my conveyancing solicitor Gillian Haines was in comparison to her own solicitor!

Highly recommended and I will definitely use EMG in the future.

Best experience with EMG Solicitors

I purchased my first property and wasn’t aware of the process. Charlotte, made things easier and made me feel comfortable. She is very helpful, polite and willing to help always. She kept me up to date with transition of the sale. Would definitely recommend EMG Solicitors.

Court of Protection

When looking for solicitors for Court of Protection work I don't know why the name EMG jumped out at me but it did and thank goodness! Sarah and Suzannah saved my sanity when I was fighting an NHS Trust over their wish to put my both mentally and physically seriously ill brother through the horror of ECT. I cannot praise them enough. They even went above and beyond responding to worries I had further down the line. If you would like Court of Protection help, look no further.

EMG Solicitors have been exceptional from start to finish. Even our estate agents commented on how pleased they were to work with such an efficient organisation.

We have another property to sell in the future and will undoubtedly choose EMG again.

Thank you very much.

Fantastic experience with Gillian, Carrie and the team for our house purchase. Everything done so quickly and really patient with me when I didn't quite understand some of the documents fully. So efficient in fact that a member of my family is jealous that we got our house finalised before them and haven't been round to visit since which is definitely worth a 6 star review!!
