Supper efficient.

Dealt with the sale of our house and an awkward auction purchase. Manage to squeeze both in before the stamp duty increase which basically saved us their fees. Just on point with chasing up queries and sorting out the details. Kept us well informed throughout the whole process. Will use them again. Thank you.

Would highly recommend

We worked with EMG for the sale and purchase of our properties and found the whole process straightforward and stress-free, due to their professionalism and efficiency. They responded to all of our queries in a timely manner and kept us well informed. Everyone we dealt with was approachable and friendly, making it a pleasurable experience, notably Susan Cozens.

I had a great experience with EMG solicitors from the initial consultation through to final paperwork. They always acted in my best interest (and weren't shy to tell me when what I was requesting wasn't reasonable). If I need legal representation again I would have no quarms with engaging their services again.

I’ve been a very satisfied Customer of the Commercial and Will departments of EMG.
I needed conveyancing for a house sale and the experience was shocking. No reply to the Estate Agent, buyers Solicitor or any contact with myself, in over a month. No work was commenced and my deposit returned. To be avoided.
