Anything to do with mortgage and house sales always confuses me and adds the extra stress you don't need. Thank you to Sam, she has dealt with everything from start to finish and has ensured I'm aware of every step that is being taken. Sam has gone the extra mile to offer reassurance and endless explanations and I couldn't be more grateful for her guidance and support.

Great firm to deal with

I came to Goody Burrett to help with an aspect of my divorce. I needed help with a specific part of the process and not the entire thing. Having spoken with one or two firms Susan was the only one who appeared to understand exactly what it was I needed. She answered a number of questions (without charge) over a few months until I was ready to proceed.

Once I was ready to proceed Helen was extremely quick and diligent in coming back to me. We swiftly and efficiently navigated the process seamlessly and I was very impressed with the ease at which everything went through. I cannot recommend Sue or the firm enough and would encourage anyone in a similar position to do the same.

Thank you for all your help at what could have been a difficult time.

The BEST

Goody Burrett are by far the best solicitors I've ever used.
They are so professional in everything they do, all done in a very timely manner.
I was kept up to date, never once had to chase for information and I never experienced a moment of stress the whole way through.
Can't rate them high enough, would give 10* if available.
Would not hesitate to recommend or use them again.
