AMAZING EXPERIENCE

Gareth was fantastic. I had heard so many terrifying tales about dealing with real estate solicitors and how gruelling the entire process can be. I did not have the least bit worry with Goodlaw Solicitors LLP and will highly recommend their professional services anytime, any day.
Thank You Gareth and Diane.

Excellent always!

My wife and I recently used Goodlaw to help us with our wills.
Rachel was very professional and helpful, but also kind and polite, which makes these things a lot easier.
We’ve used Goodlaw a number of times over the years and it’s always top notch service!

Responsive and thorough

I had a long and frustrating house purchase process, due to complications in my chain and issues with my vendors solicitors but Kirsty and Ellie were great at doing all they could to push the purchase and I had full confidence in their professionalism and ability.

I can’t recommend George and the team at Goodlaw enough! They made buying our first home as stress free as possible. They were always quick to respond and we were able to complete in a matter of weeks with their help! 10/10 would recommend anyone looking for a solicitors for selling/buying property

Jina and Alisha came highly recommended but I feel they must have dropped the ball with me. I’m a first time buyer, so naturally would be a bit nervous as it’s a big investment and I’m unfamiliar with the nuances of the process. This meant I didn’t know what questions to ask and trusted that as a client, the firm had my best interest at heart. A day before my property survey, I was asked whether I consent to submitting searches. I didn’t understand why they asked me this question, and so replied saying, if that’s the natural next step in the process then sure! They knew my survey was taking place the following day. Within minutes I received confirmation that searches were submitted. Next day I had the survey done which revealed a range of issues that meant I would not proceed with the purchase. If my legal representatives had my best interest at heart they would have advised me to hold off on submitting searches until the survey results came back. But instead, I still had to pay for all the searches that I would no longer need. I didn’t think this was the level of support I would receive, and am disappointed. They didn’t even let the estate agents know that I had pulled out from the purchase of the property. So based on my personal experience as a first time buyer, no I would not recommend this firm and am unlikely to use them again in future.

We used Goodlaw to sell and buy new home , Kirsty and Ellie were fantastic throughout whole process. There are always stresses, but they were both brilliant, always able to give prompt reassuring updates, keeping us informed and sending clear communications. Very grateful to them and would highly recommend the company and particularly Kirsty and Ellie

I have sold my flat and bought a new home with the help of Ellie and Kirsty. They have been amazing and dealt with some very tedious bits of my sale, always absorbing most of the stress and making sure I am always in the loop and understand my options. I haven't had to chase anything as they are always on it, they always answer the phone if I have any questions and are super speedy at replying to emails. They have made the whole process much more bearable, I am so very glad I chose them!

I enlisted the help of Good Law with my house sale and purchase, and they were brilliant throughout. Both Jina and Alisha made things incredibly stress-free and were lovely to deal with. It's definitely the smoothest moving experience I've had to date, and I have already recommended them to other people.
