Professional and Supportive Service During a Complex Probate Process.

I recently worked with Lee Hunter and his team at Foys Solicitors for probate services following the passing of my late cousin. The process was a lengthy one, taking 42 months, but this was due to several unavoidable challenges, including an unusually large number of beneficiaries, complex legal and administrative issues around the sale of property and motor vehicles, and delays in selling the property, which were largely due to the effects of the pandemic on the property market.

Throughout this time, Lee and his team were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and supportive. They expertly handled each challenge, providing clear explanations and guidance that made a difficult process much more manageable. While there were moments when communication lines felt a little stretched, the messages were always clear, and I always felt reassured by their expertise and attention to detail.

I would highly recommend Lee Hunter and his team at Foys Solicitors to anyone needing probate services. They turned what could have been an incredibly stressful and daunting process into one that felt manageable, and their dedication and professionalism were evident every step of the way. Thank you for all your hard work!

Conveyancer - Roger Colphon

Oh my goodness Roger was absolutely marvellous. This is the first time for me buying a property, he was calm, lovely and reassuring every step of the way. No call or question was too much bother for him, he made what was a stressful time a lot less stressful and put me at ease regularly.
Roger was efficient, quick all completed within 3.5 months and great value for money. If you are in need of someone to help you buy, or sell your property request Roger, you will not be disappointed, he is amazing.

Incredible conveyancing service from Carissa Moore!!

First class service from Foys! Carissa dealt with our sale and purchase recently and was absolutely incredible from start to finish. As someone who is incredibly organised and appreciates being kept in the loop, it was refreshing to deal with someone who understood the importance of regular communication. She was always one step ahead of everyone else, is super knowledgable, completely understands the inevitable stresses of the conveyancing process, was always at the end of the phone or an email to answer queries and, as a result, got the entire sale and purchase over the line within 10 weeks when some people wait nearly a year!! I’d deal with Carissa over and over again, she’s an absolute asset to the firm as are the staff that work with her. I HIGHLY recommend!! This firm is an absolute pleasure to deal with.

Sale of house following Probate

Instructed Foys as executor for the estate. One or two issues raised by the buyers dealt with promptly.
Kept updated throughout and completion within hoped for time scale. More than happy with the service provided by Foys.

Hannah Edgley best conveyancer around.

Hannah and her team Grace and Shania supported me through a house sale and purchase on my own, her knowledge and attention to detail is second to none. She was a great support throughout always keeping me informed every step of the way and a pleasure to deal with, all the girls were. She went above and beyond working extra hours to ensure the quick completion of the sale with not alot of notice taking the stress off me. Thank you so much for all your advice and support I would recommend you and Foys to anyone and will be using again in the future.

Hannah is amazing at her job

Hannah Edgley was my solicitor during a house sale and purchase. Due to the mortgage company involved this was a stressful time in my life as I was given little notice by the buyers of my property to complete but luckily Hannah was on hand. She somehow managed to complete my sale and purchase on the same day which was looking unlikely due to the incompetence of the mortgage company (west brom). Hannah kept me informed all the way through the process by email and she was always quick to respond to any questions I had. I would highly recommend Foys solicitors and especially Hannah who I will be using again in the future for sure! Thanks again so much Hannah you're star!!
