Tony Michael was very efficient, keeping in touch by e-mail and telephone as required. Documents were dealt with speedily. The whole process took 6 weeks, which we were really pleased with. Our family has used Boys & Maughan on several occasions and has always been happy with the service.

A number of years ago we purchased our first house and used a conveyancing solicitor that was a couple of hundred pounds more than other solicitors.The experience was challenging, stressful, and complicated.

After the above and buying our second property Boys and Maughan were recommend by a friend.

Sophie and the team are exceptional. We have used their services multiple times over the years, and their friendly communication, expert advice, and extensive knowledge are superb. They make the process as simple and stress-free as possible. We would not consider using anyone else.
