We were very pleased with the efficient and friendly service offered, not least given the fact that we were based abroad with an eight hours time difference to the UK. Particular thanks to Irfan and David for their patient responses to our queries.

Very happy

We went with Bannister Preston for our house purchase as they were recommended by our house builders (anwyl homes) and we are really glad that we did. Their communication has been amazing throughout, any email I sent was replied to really promptly the same day, sometimes even within minutes and they have been happy to help with anything I’ve asked. We had an issue on completion day (due to a fault of our buyers solicitors) and they were very supportive throughout. We feel they really took the stress out of buying a house. We also think they are competitively priced especially when you consider the service you receive in return.
Special thanks to Ashleigh and Chris for looking after us.

Excellent service

We were on a tight deadline for the sale of our house and purchase of a new property and thanks to Bannister Preston we managed to meet the deadline with time to spare. We were always called back when told we would be and kept in contact over email. Overall a smooth process in a stressful situation and I would highly recommend. I would not hesitate to use this company again.

First time buyer

I've just bought a new-build property. Bannister Preston was recommended to me as there were the solicitors, that the developers have worked with on this particular housing development I've moved into.

As a first-time buyer, I had no clue how the process worked from a conveyancing perspective and having previously studied Law at university. I asked quite a few questions. The solicitors, assistant solicitors and associates, were all polite and responsive and chased for updates when required.

I would recommend Bannister Preston. Thanks for all your help!

Review for Bannister Preston Solicitors and Christopher Newton

I recently had the pleasure of working with Bannister Preston for the conveyancing of my property, and I couldn’t be more pleased with their service. The entire process was handled efficiently, and all formalities were completed in just 45 days, which is truly impressive.

A special mention goes to Christopher Newton, who was incredibly proactive throughout the process. He promptly addressed all my queries and kept me informed at every step, ensuring everything ran smoothly. His professionalism and attention to detail made the experience stress-free.

I highly recommend Bannister Preston Solicitors and Christopher Newton for their outstanding service!

Prompt and Effective Service

Bannister Preston helped us with a part exchange sale and purchase. Communication with Chris and Ashleigh was straightforward and responsive, with a combination of email, phone and mail. We received regular updates and Chris dealt with a lot of back-and-forth with the buyer's solicitors. We would use this solicitors again.
