Great legal assistance

All the Fairstep team were accessible, supportive and helpful. Even as the re-mortgage went to the last day due to factors beyond their control they were on the ball, kept me in the loop and reassuring

First Time Buyer

We had fabulous experience with Gemma and Leia. They were easily contactable and told us ahead of time if going to be away. They were very helpful for first time buyers and really helped keep us informed and lessened the stress!

Fantastic Support on Our First Auction Purchase!

We recently completed our first auction purchase with Fairstep Solicitors, and we couldn’t have asked for a better team. Gemma, Leia, Aiden, and Jo were outstanding knowledgeable, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. As this was our first auction purchase, we were quite anxious, but their clear communication and expertise reassured us every step of the way. They understood the tight timeframes involved and worked diligently to ensure everything was completed smoothly and on time. We highly recommend Fairstep for their professionalism and excellent service!

My Will

Jasmin was an outstanding solicitor, so kind and thoughtful. As i have torn a muscle in my right arm, causing my hand to be numb i could not drive to her office so she conducted the work via phone and letters (She had met me in the past). She was so efficient and a pleasure to deal with.

Brilliant!

I recently used Fairstep for my house move and I was extremely impressed with their service. They were professional, efficient, and always kept me updated on the progress of my case. They were also very helpful in answering any questions I had and made the whole process much less stressful. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a solicitor for their house move.
