Excellent service

Ben has recently dealt with the sale and purchase of a property on my behalf and I would definitely recommend him to others. It was refreshing to be able to deal directly with the same person and to feel that my transaction was being dealt with competently. It wasn’t a straightforward transaction however I did have faith in Ben’s ability and felt that I was kept fully informed regarding progress to achieve a favourable outcome. In terms of fees, Clarkes had a clear price structure and turned out to be as, if not more, competitive than some online firms.

House purchase and sale.



I recently had the pleasure of working with clarkes LLP for the sale of my property, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their professionalism and expertise. From start to finish, the team handled every aspect of the transaction with efficiency and care. They were always available to answer questions, providing clear and concise advice throughout the process. The communication was excellent—every update was promptly relayed, and any concerns I had were addressed swiftly.

What really stood out was their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring the sale went through smoothly. They took the time to explain each step, ensuring I was well-informed and confident in every decision. Thanks to their hard work, the sale was completed on time, with no issues. I highly recommend Clarkes LLP to anyone looking for reliable, professional solicitors for their property transaction. Truly a fantastic experience!

This wouldn’t of been possible without Jemima and Paul.

Benjamin Foskett

We recently purchased a house through Clarkes solicitors with Benjamin Foskett acting on our behalf. To say we were shocked to say the least to find out he was only classed as a “trainee” would be an understatement. The professionalism, knowledge and pure dedication to his clients was phenomenal!

He was outstanding and he made sure to make us feel like we were important. He kept us updated on every little part of the process and when we asked questions (we asked a lot!) he didn’t make us feel silly or that we were asking too much.

We would happily go with Benjamin again and we hope the firm realise what an amazing future solicitor they have on their hands! Recognition well deserved.

Amazing job Ben… Thank you so much.

Great service

We had a great service from Sarah and Claire whilst purchasing and selling our house.

Nothing was too much trouble and they chased other solicitors regularly for updates.

We would recommend.
