Amazing help and advice at a very good price

We needed help for Mum (very elderly person) with writing her Will, and advice regarding her property. Camilla Greenwood was very professional, easily approachable and cared greatly for helping Mum to the best of her ability - would totally recommend this caring, family-run business for anyone needing help and advice.

Excellent professional service

I needed to update my will and found the firm professional, efficient and competitively priced. The solicitor(Stuart) was most helpful, as were all the front of house and secretarial team. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone wanting this a will writing service.

Our experience couldn't have been better!

We used Greenwood’s Solicitors to handle the purchase of our new home.

Throughout the process the service offered was second to none. All our questions were answered promptly & clearly, all aspects of the transaction were handled efficiently. I don’t believe that the service we received could have been any better.

We are most grateful to Dawn & her team & we look forward to using their services again in the future.

Fantastic and patient

We worked with Dawn Hudson on conveyancing for our sale and purchase within a chain of 5 properties. Dawn was very persistent and patient and provided clear advice and guidance throughout. She supported us fantastically well through what turned out to be quite a complex chain that had several false starts on exchange of contracts. We would absolutely work with Dawn again on future sales and purchases and would definitely recommend her services to other people.

Power of Attorney

We contacted Greenwoods regarding Power of Attorney for a relative recently retuned to the UK. Camilla visited us to discuss our issues with us and our relative. She was highly professional throughout yet remained approachable and very easy to talk to. She was able to give some sound help and advice on the situation which is complicated by international issues, calling back several times with results of her research on our behalf. We would highly recommend Greenwoods and will definitely be using them again in the future.

Excellent conveyancing service

Would highly recommend Greenwoods who handled the conveyancing for our recent house sale and purchase, and also did our wills. They provided excellent communication and service throughout and responded to all our (many!) queries promptly and clearly.

I have used Dawn at Greenwoods for two house sales and one purchase. Dawn has, without fail, every time been absolutely amazing. She is always in contact, quickly, efficiently and with a common sense approach. She remains calm during the stressful times and we wouldn’t have been able to complete on our purchase without Dawn’s professional, calm and efficient approach. Thank you.
