Mailin was great to work with. She quickly understood the project brief, exceeded the project delivery requirements by thinking creatively and flexibly, and was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her.

I have worked with Vicky on several cross border and UK based transactions including corporate disposals, refinancing with existing investors and the introduction of new investors. On each occasion Vicky has been professional yet personable and provides practical, timely advice bringing in other Gateley experts as required. I would recommend her without hesitation.

He is an excellent professional, providing practical and concrete advice. I also note that he was available on a Friday night, late UK time and I appreciated his flexibility a great deal.

We were first time buyers and Alison was the greatest asset we had throughout the entire process. Not only extremely detail orientated, but one of the nicest people you could ever talk to. It was always a joy to catch up with her. There was absolutely no stress with our home purchase because everything was so well taken care of. If anyone is about to buy a home and needs a solicitor, Alison will be the first person we mention.

As a first-time (solo) buyer, I can't rate Alison and Amy high enough for the service they provided. They both made the conveyancing process feel much less overwhelming than I had anticipated. Alison and Amy both acted with great professionalism and efficiency, responding very promptly to any queries I raised over email. I would highly recommend Gateley Legal to any first-time buyers!!

Horrendous. Gateley have directly cost me thousands of pounds. By not registering my self as the owner of my house with HM Land Registry, the one job I paid them to do, and assuring me it had been done properly, I am now incurring thousands of pounds of loss as I cannot remortgage my property. Can’t remember the last time I left a review, but given how bad Gateley have managed to screw me over, felt it was necessary.

Our Guildford office was created when we acquired GCL Solicitors in 2018. Today, we have a team of more than 100 legal professionals based in our office in Cathedral Hill. The team in Guildford includes one of our largest residential development teams, working with housebuilders and property developer clients right across the South East. Founded in Victorian Birmingham, Gateley has changed a lot over the intervening years. Our address list has grown and we have welcomed new offices and teams to the Gateley family. Our clients have changed and we have moved with them. We work with clients from start-ups and SMEs through to large corporates and public sector organisations. What has stayed the same has been our focus on helping our clients to thrive and prosper. That commercial, entrepreneurial spirit goes to the heart of our business and shapes our story.
