Boundary Planning Issue

A planning application had been submitted using incorrect OS Mapping and encroaching our legal boundary. Your solicitor was very helpful in confirming the action we had taken so far and she gave us useful advice on what action to take should any further problems arise. This was very reassuring. We were very grateful for the free advice clinic and wouldn’t hesitate to use your firm for any other needs.

We have used a Lucie Clayson on two different occasions for the sale of our parents properties.
Lucie is professional, friendly and very knowledgeable and most importantly approachable. If Lucie cannot speak with you, calls are always returned. I would highly recommend! Thank you Lucie.

I used Josiah Hincks to help me sort out and finalise my parents affairs and the service, advice and care I received from a conveyancing and probate perspective was excellent. Not only was it an emotional time I was also at a disadvantage by living some distance away and so all matters were dealt with remotely. They could not have been more helpful or understanding. I would use Josiah Hincks again and very happy to recommend them to others.
