End of care proceedings
Worked with Emma on and off for the past few years. Emma has really helped me so much and I cannot thank her enough for her time and effort. She always makes sure that I am okay and always a chat if I ever need or worry about anything. Would always come back to Emma.

House purchase
I recently completed my house purchase with Johnson Astills and found them to be absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Gina and the team were clear and helpful from the start, making my first house purchase a smooth process. I found every stage was thoroughly investigated and the advice given throughout was very useful. At every stage, I felt very comfortable that I was kept informed and that any issues were being followed up. I would recommend the team to anybody

Conveyancing Katelyn Isliker
Brilliant service provided by Katelyn Isliker. We were kept informed at all stages of the conveyancing process, very thorough with their enquiries and worked wonders to enable us to meet the stamp duty deadline with a completion in about five weeks ( in a chain of three). I would definitely recommend using Katelyn and Johnson Astills

Massive thank you to Helen and the team!
My experience was amazing with Johnson Astills everyone was professional and really helped when I needed them the most. They helped keep my nerves down in court and were there every step of the way giving me some great advise. I really recommend anyone who needs a solicitor to go to Johnson Astils. Even after my court date Helen, Olivia and Lucy were great with myself and Helen was fantastic in court getting the best outcome I could have asked for. Thank you all.

I would highly recommend Johnson Astills Solicitors, particularly Ms Sharon Percival.
Sharon provided legal advice and representation, which was invaluable. She was very approachable and professional at all times and provided an excellent service. Her paralegal Rhian was also excellent.
I would like to thank them both.

I cannot speak highly enough of the service provided. Michelle Harding was extremely supportive, very knowledgeable and highly professional throughout. From the moment I met with her I found her to be personable, perceptive, fastidious in following up all my concerns and questions, and totally committed to gaining the best and fairest outcome for me as her client. I am so glad that I made that initial exploratory phone call to her office which put me in touch with her. I highly recommend her and her team.
