We just purchased our first house and we were recommended Devonalds Solicitors, in particular, Sara Edwards' Team who handle conveyancing.
They use an app that makes it really easy and convenient to check updates, and progress with your case. It's not without its issues however, we found it particularly useful.
They respond quickly, and they are great in person and on the phone.
As Brits we love to complain about the weather, GP receptionists, and how solicitors love to "drag their feet".
We found the process super fast and we were kept in the loop the whole time. No feet were dragged.
They gave us great advice when we were worried and provided us with clear options when choices needed to be made.
They did an amazing job, and we are very thankful. Hopefully we won't need to buy / sell again but if we do, we know where we will go.
