Exceptional Service

The whole process of purchasing this property could not have gone any smoother with Buchanan & Co
From the outset Sue Bliss and the whole Buchanan & Co team were impeccable with their assistance and guidance, of what can be a very stressful period.
Working in a service industry myself people are very quick to criticize, but very slow to compliment.
I have absolutely no criticism of Buchanan & Co what so ever and the benchmark they set for customer service is outstanding.
I would have no hesitation to wholeheartedly recommend Buchanan & Co for anyone looking to purchase a property using this excellent company.

Property Transfer

I engaged Buchanan and Co to arrange the legal transfer of a property following Probate. From the initial contact the process was responsive, straightforward and professional. The team were entirely reassuring and transparent as well as offering a good value service. I subsequently recommended them to handle the conveyance of a family member. Will definitely use them again should the need arise.

First class service provided in respect of our wills. This was something we'd put off for a decade but Alex expertly guided us through the process in an efficient and friendly way.

The personal touch

I Have had several dealings with this company.. always friendly and efficient. Get the job done but still manage to make you feel unrushed and listened too. From telephone conversations to receptionist staff to dealing with Alex , nothing is too much trouble …. This company makes dealing with those legal headaches feel not only easy but actually a pleasure and a positive experience. I wouldn’t go anywhere else now.

Free will service

I am very grateful to Buchanan and Co for supporting me to get my will written during Free Wills month in October. I was given the same diligent attention that I believe would be the same for any customer. My needs were listened to and the will was written with care to meet these requirements.
Many thanks.

A challenging conveyance

I cannot praise Tim and Salli enough for their patience and understanding in what proved to be quite a difficult house purchase.
The vendor threw in challenges right up to the day before completion, when he threatened to pull out. He constantly changed his mind and seemed to create obstacles.
With only a few days to go before Christmas and time running out on the mortgage offer, with Tim and Salli’s help completion happened just in time.

Great in supporting me to buy my first home. Because they're a small firm it was easy to get through to my solicitor and they replied to me promptly. They also gave me 10% NHS discount on my fees!
