Excellent Service
Couldn't have asked for better service during my recent property transaction. I will certainly be recommending to my family and friends and will be sure to use again for my next property purchase.

Purchase fell through but would gladly instruct again.
This review is for a different branch.
We instructed Natalie Hall when trying to buy our first house. Although our purchase sadly fell through due to unforeseen circumstances, we would absolutely go back to Natalie again. Throughout the process, she was responsive, proactive, thorough, and supportive.
Leanne Dalby was also very lovely and super helpful.

Incompetent. Do not deliver as per their Terms and Conditions. Costs excessive and questionable. Communication shocking. Do not like complaints and do not handle fairly. Have taken up with the Legal Ombudsman.

Not a man to be trusted
Mediation attitude is arrogant and self centred
No regard to looking after his customers
Complaint handling is arrogant and in the dark ages keeping information from clients

We went through Hethertons and Natalie Hall for conveyancing last year, with Leanne also supporting us. Although the purchase of the house we wanted didn’t go through in the end (due to sudden job redundancy), Natalie and Leanne were brilliant throughout the process. They were responsive, proactive, and efficient - all while the vendor’s solicitor was taking forever with things. We’re now in the process of buying again and will be confidently instructing Hethertons a second time.

While selling my daughter's house, we encountered issues with our local solicitor, they were slow to respond and unprofessional when we sought updates. We decided to change solicitors and chose Hethertons in York. The difference was remarkable – the staff at Hethertons were polite, professional, and provided clear, accurate feedback throughout the conveyancing process. They were proactive and efficient, and the sale was completed smoothly in under three weeks. Thank you Natalie for making it happen!

An excellent experience using Natalie Hall from Hethertons to handle the Conveyancing work for a house purchase. Natalie responded extremely quickly to emails and was efficient and professional throughout. We're happy to recommend her and hope to use her services again.

Hethertons handled our first home purchase and they were excellent. Natalie was our Conveyancer and she was always on top of it all and even found issues that had been missed during previous sales of the property. She was very patient while the purchase took much longer than anticipated and was always available to provide advice. Although I can't give 5 stars for the buying process, I'm glad we had Hethertons to navigate the process and won't hesitate to use their services again in the future.
