Took him a week to contact me and agreed to unreasonable unrealistic bail conditions that put me at risk of being held on remand simple by walking out my front door. Do not recommend.

Superb service. Used Mustoe Solicitors for a house purchase. Extremelyprifessional, welcoming and communication was outstanding. Even with issues with land registry running slowly we didn’t feel out of the loop. A great local service.
