100% would recommend

Jessica was my solicitor for my house purchase as a first time buyer. Jessica helped me through the whole process from start to finish. Jessica was patient with me when I did not understand the information. Jessica always replied to any email I sent pretty much straight away and was always on hand to answer questions. I would never use another solicitor now in regards to properties. When I decide to sell my property and a buy a new one then I will be asking specifically for Jessica.
She will go far in her career and if you have her as your solicitor then you are in good hands.

Great Help Through First Time Buying Experience

I used Maring Tolhurst as a solicitor during my first time buy and Jessica was brilliant to work with throughout. She clearly explained the process as we went along, filling in gaps in knowledge and helping me to avoid common pitfalls.
There were a few issues with the purchase (on the seller's end) and Jessica helped me get through them and within a fairly decent turnaround time including some very quick actions to get me in my new place before my deadline.
I would definitely consider using them again and would definitely request Jessica to work with next time.

A great experience.

I had the pleasure of working with Jesscia Bonfield to process the release of our mutual clients Lifetime ISA funds for their upcoming purchase. Jessica's replies were quick, concise, and handled in a friendly manner, her timely responses made the process as smooth as possible putting less stress on both us and our mutual client.

A Great Team

Jessica and her colleagues at Martin Tolhurst have been fantastic. The sale of our property was not straightforward and several problems caused by our buyer were encountered. These were all dealt with in a professional manner and our sincere thanks goes to Jessica for her patience in handling the sale.

Heather Greene our excellent conveyancing solicitor

Our solicitor Heather Greene was excellent. Our sale was far from straightforward, and at times became extremely challenging for us as the sellers. Heather was calm throughout and was great at explaining everything to us as we went along. She was always professional, but friendly and got the job done. She was a pleasure to deal with even when I was getting irate.
I would highly recommend Martin Tolhurst Solicitors, and if you have Heather representing you as far as I'm concerned is a bonus for you.

Would recommend and happily use again.

After a collapsed first sale it took a long time to reach completion with another buyer but despite this we were well looked after by Martin Tolhurst and Abdul especially over a period of over a year. Communication was frequent and smooth and any questions received a prompt reply. We would happily use Martin Tolhurst again. Many thanks to Abdul, Christine and Josh for their help throughout.

I would like to thank Abdul Mutallib and his team for their help during a recent conveyancing matter. I have since spoken with Abbie, one of his secretaries, on a couple of ‘mop up’ matters and received an efficient and helpful reply.
