I met with Jane a couple of times to discuss my father's estate. Jane was very professional and very approachable. She listened to my personal concerns with regards to putting the house deeds in my name and offered good clear and concise information. I would highly recommend.

Another fantastic transaction

I have only used Owen White & Catlin for the last ten years or so, assisting in a number of property purchases, Anne and her team are diligent, knowledgeable and swift when needed as to not delay any deal I have been part of, I cannot recommend Anne and her colleagues enough.

Sale of My Flat

I was recommended OWC by a friend of mine, he said that the company had a lot of good reviews. I am so glad I chose OWC to look after the sale of my flat. The team of Anne, Ginny and Milka worked tirelessly to get the sale over the line, they provided lots of advice and communicated to me clearly. They were always at the end of phone when I needed them, I can not recommend them highly enough.

Review of services received

When you need advice from a solicitor, one is slightly apprehensive as to the outcome as we do not have legal knowledge. In my case, things were clearly explained and I felt comfortable with the whole process which I am happy to say was settled satisfactorily. I am most grateful to the lady concerned.

Smooth, efficient service

Ms Stenning and her team dealt with our request in a most professional and courteous manner. The advice we received was reassuring and informative. Although we were in no actual rush to conclude our legal matters, the whole process was undertaken smoothly and in a short space of time. I have no hesitation in recommending this firm. Thank you.

With us through every step of the process.

Both Anne Byard and Virginia Burton made the sometimes difficult and stressful process of selling our old home and then buying a new one so much easier. They were always professional but also kind and helpful. Their part in the sale and purchase went smoothly and quickly. We have been involved in house moves for our parents and had difficulties with communicating with solicitors. It was always easy to speak to Anne or Virginia and they replied quickly to emails. Each step was outlined clearly. We would recommend them .

Family matters.

After a bitter break up with my ex partner and having no voice about my children's welfare and wellbeing, many people told me I had zero chance of being given a fair hearing regarding custody of my children.
At first I was sceptical and didn't think I should bother, but I did seek advise and approached Owen, White and Catlin, I can honestly say that the work these people do is exceeded my expectations by miles, they were supportive, advise was made clear when I didn't understand and they were thorough throughout the whole process, The children now live with me and are thriving.
A first class service !

Great Service

Great service as always from Anne Byard and Virginia Burton. We have been using OWC for the last 15 years and value their great communication skills, clarity and friendly manner. These are very helpful people in an industry that often seems remote and uninterested. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Had last minute legalities to sort through a few branches of OWC, Paul (FOH Shepperton) was most helpful and amazingly organised, having the whole situation tied up in 24 hours and all parties involved contacted me. Fantastic service !! Thank you

On behalf of Edward Ryan:
Laura Infield at Shepperton has been amazing, She dealt with my late mothers estate promptly and efficiently throughout. She has been totally professional and taken all the worry away from us. Laura has made a difficult time for us a lot easier. Thank you Laura!
