Professional and consistently excellent!

From beginning to end, queries were promptly responded to. Support and patience was given when using online document formats.
Feedback and updates through hiccups which delayed the process (Land registry)
I liaised with Victoria regularly, who is meticulous, organised and persistent in her manner.

Excellent service

EMG Solicitors were recommended to us and we would not hesitate to recommend them to others.
The service we received in setting up our wills was excellent from start to finish. Nathan was a pleasure to deal with; he was very knowledgeable and he explained everything clearly in a way which was easy to understand. Paperwork was dealt with promptly and efficiently. Great service, thank you.

My wife and I were very impressed with Mike, who explained everything very succinctly and put our minds at rest. We feel much more confident and know that we have made the right choice in choosing him.

Purchase and Sale of Properties

I chose Ashley, having dealt with her previously, as she is very clear in her dealings and happy to discuss when needed. I am the sort of person that needs to know what is going on, so silence is not good for me.
The cases were dealt with by Lauren Pearson, trainee solicitor, alongside Ashley. I am very happy with the work done and, again, it was easy to discuss issues with both of them.
I will happily use EMG, Ashley and Lauren again. (Although I hope it will be a while before I feel the need to move :) ).

Commercial purchase

Rebecca and Erin dealt with a lengthy commercial purchase for me. There were a lot of requirements and searches but I was kept informed every step of the way.
They were professional and easy to communicate with, being available on the phone whenever an update was needed.
I highly recommend them for future transactions.

Stress-free conveyancing

Using EMG Solicitors to purchase our first house was definitely the right choice.

Our conveyancers were regularly in contact with updates, identified and resolved issues as they arose, and were always quick to reply to any queries I sent them. They were on the ball throughout the process and allowed us to go from offer to completion in just over two months.

I found the fee reasonable and competitive. It was definitely value for money given the service, with no hidden charges - the final invoice was the same as the original quotation.

I’d happily recommend EMG and I would definitely use them again if I were to move home.

New Will

My 95 year old Mum needed to renew her Will and Nathan kindly came to the house to establish her wishes. The process was easy and smooth from start to finish. Nathan even managed to cope with her poor speech quality.
I have used the Commercial side of the EMG on several occasions previously, which is also very impressive in getting results.

This was for a residential property purchase. Most of the work (or at least the vast majority of the client interface) was handled by the Conveyancing Assistant, Paige Raisbeck. I think this is what keeps the price so reasonable, as I had very little communication/contact with the lead contracted Partner. Paige was excellent and patient. Seh provided sage advice and was thorough and diligent. I will continue to use EMG for other matters.
