Catherine @ GA Solicitors dealt with the drawing up of our wills, what a lovely lady and conveyed our wills with ease, a very smooth process considering I had been putting it off as it all seems so final, we thoroughly recommend Catherine.

Professional and responsive

I contacted GA Solicitors after being made redundant for the first time in my career, and I wasn't sure what to expect. From the very beginning, all communication was clear, professional, and prompt, which helped put my mind at ease and gave me confidence in the process. Kayleigh was especially supportive throughout, showing genuine care in how she handled my case. Her attention to detail and understanding of my situation made me feel like I was in safe hands, which was incredibly reassuring during such a stressful time. I truly appreciate the level of service and professionalism I received.

Exceptional lawyer who goes above and beyond.

Kayleigh has been exceptional in her advice and support throughout my case. It has been an extremely difficult process and she has provided clear and sound advice often working outside of normal hours to ensure that communication is provided and instructions taken.

Purchasing a property can feel like an overwhelming task but Anna Young was phenomenal. Communication is so important during the process and we couldnā€™t have asked for anything more. Thank you Anna for your support and patience and for assisting us with purchasing our dream home!

We have recently had cause to use GA Solicitors on business. Our contact there was Matthew Rose and, as usual, everything went very smoothly. They are an excellent company and we wouldn't dream of using any other solicitors.

We used Matthew Rose for my Mothers estate, followed up by Jane & the team dealing with the conveyance of her bungalow. I deal with many Solicitors as part of my work and have been delighted with the whole process. Professional, punctual and exceeded my expectations. We as a family are pleased with the closure and a big thanks to the team, it's been appreciated.
