Legal help to sell my house

The process was stressful but efficient.I felt in safe hands and the support was available when I needed it through the availability of my solicitor and her secretary on the phone and by email if I needed to ask any questions.

1st class service once again

We returned to use Kathryn and Mandy after having used them for a previous house sale and move. Once again, it was fantastic, first class service. We have used solicitors years ago where nobody gets back to you, and when the solicitor is on holiday, everything grinds to a halt and nobody can help you. It’s very different with Kathryn and Mandy. Emails are replied to promptly and if Kathryn is off, Mandy ( or sometimes someone else ) will continue to keep things going with your case. Nothing is too much trouble and they really do go above and beyond to make a potentially stressful situation as stress free as they can. I have recommended them to several other people, who have gone on to use them and been very happy.
They are both a real credit to Coodes, extremely professional at all times yet very approachable.

Timely and informative!

I found everyone I spoke with at Coodes very friendly and helpful. I didn’t experience any delays and didn’t feel I needed to chase anything. Kathryn and Mandy were both very helpful and informative which helped make the process much easier for me. Things were explained in a way that I could understand and they were happy to answer any questions I had. I would definitely recommend them!

Totally professional service

Given the complexity of my personal situation, living overseas while purchasing a property in the UK, and also being profoundly deaf, Coodes could not have been more sympathetic and helpful. They are wholly reliable in every way - and very nice with it!

Used on more than one occasion now for their conveyancing service. I have to say that they have always been most efficient and thorough in the service they provide. Would not now go anywhere else should the need arise again in the future
