Antri helped us get our help to buy redemption over the line in really tight time frames. She also supported us with a number of issues that were created by our mortgage adviser from our lender. Antri was contactable, supportive and extremely efficient and professional in her delivery. Highly recommend.

We have just completed on our property that Antri did the conveyancing for and she got it all turned around signed and sealed with in the 12 week. And it’s wasn’t a straight forwards property with lots of little issues and not very forthcoming solicitors the other end.
I also made the process a bit harder as I was in contact with the vendor all the way through. But Antri sorted all the issues and managed to get is completed with in the 12 weeks.
A representative from Francis George Solicitor-Advocate Limited responded to this review on 02 October, 2024:
Thank you for your kind words about Antri, Emma. The Conveyancing process can be one of the most stressful/complicated things we can go through in our lives and it's great that Antri made this as seamless as possible for you. Many thanks again.

Our grateful thanks to Lydia Holden for the support provided during a challenging Conveyancing process. It has been some years since my husband and I sold and bought property and we realised very quickly how times have changed. Lydia was a calm patient influence on the process, explaining clearly and very professional each step. Many many thanks from a very grateful couple. Chris & Ian Moore

What a lovely group of people, very friendly not what I expected from a Solicitor, they always seem stuffy if you know what I mean. As it turned out they are local people, very friendly and helpful, also very professional and gave great advice as my Will was a little complicated. Will recommend them to all that I know, thank you so much.

Antri was very professional and friendly when dealing with our house purchase. She kept us in the loop and was very fast with her replies. She also was polite and calm whenever things would scare us.
But most of all we appreciate how thorough she was with making sure we got everything we needed and we felt like we were her main priority.
If we were to need any help in the future we will highly likely hope that Antri is free to help us.

The buying and selling of your home is always such a daunting process and can be very stressful at times.

I (unfortunately) had the need to use the services of Siân at Francis George. She has been fantastic and so helpful at every step of my process. She has communicated well, costs have been in line with what had been detailed and she has always helped me know what the options are, and what the implications may be of a cause of action. I cannot recommend Siân and her colleagues at Francis George highly enough - thank you.
