Excellent experience buying my first home

Really impressed with my experience. I never needed to chase anything, as I was contacted every week via email. As a first time buyer I felt I needed a bit more support at times when it came to knowing when buildings insurance was required and how to transfer my house deposit, but overall I was very impressed. I would definitely recommend.

Excellent service

Having reached our seventies, my wife and I were anxious to put our affairs in order so that our wills were up to date, powers of attorney in place and as much as possible of our assets protected for our children.
Having spoken to Nicola on the telephone, we already felt at ease even before going for our face to face appointment as she seemed so friendly and approachable.
On meeting her in person, we were impressed by her professionalism and her willingness to listen to what we wanted to achieve. She gave us sound advice and explained exactly what would happen next, including the probable timeframe and costs. Everything went through smoothly and efficiently.
We would have no hesitation in contacting Nicola again if the need arose and would recommend the firm in general.

Jessica Cornish, Bethany Herbert & Emily Whittley, all provided an exceptional service, they were all extremely prepared and knowledgeable around my case. All correspondence was prompt, direct and clear throughout and they all provided a high level of professionalism, with advice that was factual and honest. Despite having to provide a professional service they still managed to give their own sincere personal touch making you feel valued. I felt extremely confident in having all three involved and would recommend them to anyone.
