We can’t thank Bev and Hadiqa at Walker Foster Solicitors enough for helping us buy our first house! No questions were too silly, responses were timely and the deadline the sellers set from the get go was met with a week to spare! Everything felt very smooth and efficient which is just what we needed as first-time buyers.
A representative from Walker Foster Limited responded to this review on 30 January, 2025:
Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Chloe! We're thrilled to hear that Beverley and Hadiqa made your first home purchase smooth and efficient. Congratulations on your new home, and we appreciate your trust in us and the Conveyancing team.

Hadiqa was excellent throughout, she problem solved and communicated well, and kept my sale on track. She worked well with others including the buyer, their solicitors (who were frustrating) and the estate agent. I would highly recommend Hadiqa again. I can’t comment on Bev, I had one very brief meeting with Bev, where she communicated well when I popped in to sign a document. I would recommend Walker Foster again. My review comments are therefore based on Hadiqa.
A representative from Walker Foster Limited responded to this review on 05 December, 2024:
Thank you, Amanda! We're thrilled to hear Hadiqa provided excellent support and kept your sale on track. We appreciate your recommendation and feedback!

100% recommend! I instructed Sara to support with my Family matter. Her and her assistant, Claire were kind, responsive and incredibly supportive throughout the process.

Her advice and guidance was invaluable in resolving my matter in a timely manner and as high pressured as the situation was at times, I always felt in good hands with Sara and her team. Thank you!
