Sarah Dell

We had the amazing team of Sarah Dell ,Nikki Best and Kahrn Sanderson to deal with an extremely complexed family issue which was dealt with with honesty, professionalism and compassion whilst always understanding the outcome we were hoping for and gained. Sarah always guided us and gave us realistic expectations of what the next steps were along our journey would bring.
We would highly recommend Sarah and her team and would not think twice about engaging with them again.

House Sale

A not very straight forward sale was made easier with our conveyancer Mrs Gemma Ellison.
Gemma kept us appraised at every step giving clear understanding of each situation as it unfolded. Gemma was a pleasure to work with and we look forward to using her services in the future.

Rema Ince

Rema has been my solicitor now on two occassions, and I am delighted to report we were the winning party in both instances.

I did not hestiate to go back to her after receiveing outstanding service that went above and beyond my expectations in what was a very stressful and difficult time involving a custody battle.

Rema was professional, ALWAYS got back to me the same day and explained everything in a non convoluted way. She was friendly, understanding and went out her way to reassure me and give me peace of mind, really supporting me through what was a very daunting process.

The second time I emplyed Rema to help with litigation work over a land registration dispute.

Once again she did not disappoint. The case was handled efficiently and succinctly, again going out of her way to understand the crux of the case and communicate that in a most skilled and competent manner to The Tribunal.

Look no further, highly recommended.

Emily Hunkin and Abi Thomas were committed and professional from initial contact to completion for my new house purchase and buy to let mortgage administration. They were tenacious in pursuit of my interests, communicated promptly and straightforwardly and worked hard to get the deal over the line on time. Highly recommended.

I received excellent service from Lisa and Georgia who assisted me with my property matters in a relatively complex situation. They were both exceptionally supportive and efficient, and made the whole process seem straightforward.

Brilliant service

This review is for a different branch.

I cannot recommend this firm enough. We dealt with Lisa Brewer & her paralegal Georgia Riley and they were amazing. The handled our case with professionalism and showed that they had our best interests at heart. You'll read all over Google bad reviews for solicitors relating to conveyancing but the truth of the industry is no property transaction is straight-forward and there will be bumps along the road 90% of the time, a good solicitor will navigate these and give solutions wherever possible, this is where Lisa excelled most, the sellers solicitor wasn't quite as pro-active as Lisa but she worked through everything in a timely manor and pushed to make sure we completed before our mortgage offer expiry date. The main point that sticks out to me is how well Lisa & Georgia work together, they compliment each other in such a way that you always feel as though you're in safe hands. If I could give Charles French more stars then I would!

An exceptional experience

This review is for a different branch.

I want to share my thanks and appreciation to Charles French Newquay for going out of their way to help me in a recent property transaction. The entire team was responsive and cooperative, and applied a 'human' touch in all my dealings with them. I also want to personally thank Nancy Gasser for being effective, efficient and looking to find solutions thoughout the entire process. I would not hesitate to recomment Charles French Newquay, and they'd be my first choice in future.
