Successful conveyancing

This review is for a different branch.

From initial contact to final completion, we felt that Couchman Hanson were efficient and responsive in the process of selling our house. Any queries were answered quickly and we were advised swiftly over any issues that have arisen. We have engaged the firm to act for us in other areas and are happy to recommend their services.

A very good experience

This review is for a different branch.

I am very pleased to have engaged Paralegal Ms. Gemma Mace to handle the sale of my leasehold property. The quote and set-up through to the final accounts were transparent and clear. Gemma was always pleasant and professional and throughout the matter I felt that she was keeping up the progress despite difficulties from the other solicitors. The reception staff treated me with consideration and often Gemma was able to step out of her office to update me. I would recommend Ms. Mace without reservation.

2024 Litigation

This review is for a different branch.

Superb advice and litigation options under extremely difficult circumstances on a disputed account.
Very proactive at short notice in particular to find a replacement Barrister and Court at short notice.

The opposite solicitor practice and clients were unprofessional in waiting until the last moment
to serve a Winding Up Application leaving 2 days to act. The dispute as the Judge stated should not be in his Court, castigated their deliberate method of blackmail on a very solvent company.

Efficient and professional

This review is for a different branch.

Anila acted for the executors in a probate property sale, throughout the sale all communication was clear advice offered whenever needed or asked for. Response to emails and telephone calls was prompt and courtesy. A refreshing experience when compared to another law firm dealing with other matters. I have no hesitation in recommending Couchman Hanson and will use again.

Excellent and extremely supportive solicitors

This review is for a different branch.

Emily and Michelle came to the rescue at a time when I really needed help (and urgently). During an extremely stressful and upsetting few months things took a turn for the worse and I got in touch with the only people I could think of - Michelle and Emily. They were both incredibly supportive, efficient and extremely professional. I felt my concerns were heard, they were empathetic and as a result, my corner was fought. No one wants to experience issues with their employer or have to raise formal grievances, but if you are having a tough time, these are the best solicitors to go to for that support. They made the process effortless, gave me constant reassurance and guidance. As a result, I was able to regain my confidence and move on and I am forever grateful for their support. Thank you!

I used Coachman Hanson when I sold my house recently and sadly through their inexperience, which they acknowledged but didn’t admit to until 2 months into the proceedings, I potentially lost £100,000 on the sale of my home.

I would Highly recommend Couchman Hanson. I recently used Mike Brown to over see the sale of my commercial property. It turned out to be not the most strait forward process, however Mike was always incredibly helpful, attentive and insightful. Often going above and beyond to give advice where needed and to help the process on its way. Great service.

Absolute integrity. Meticulous attention to legal detail as well as considerable personal attention.
Couchman Hanson were the only Solicitors who managed to resolve an intractable legal problem which two other firms could not deal with.

Christine has been fantastic support and a ray of sunshine throughout a stressful issue that has now been resolved. She has been calm, knowledgable, honest, thorough and clearly experienced with the legal side, plus her sense of humour helped to keep our spirits up. You can feel that she genuinely cares about getting the best outcome for both parties.
