House purchase

We used the conveyancing team for a house purchase and have been really impressed. Communication was excellent and all queries were dealt with very quickly. The team ensured the purchase went through smoothly and their efforts ensured we were able to complete just in time to avoid the stamp duty changes, which I must’ve been during a busy few weeks for them. Would definitely recommend.

I had the pleasure of working with Darcy and Rukhsana when buying my first property, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

From start to finish, Darcy was friendly, knowledgeable, and consistently kept me updated—sometimes almost daily—which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I always hear horror stories about solicitors when buying houses, but that was far from my experience. Darcy made everything feel easy and straightforward, and speaking to her was like chatting with a friend—one who happens to know a lot about buying houses!

Rukhsana was friendly, professional, and incredibly patient throughout the process. She always made time to explain everything clearly, no matter how many questions I had, and ensured I understood each step along the way. Partway through, Rukhsana took over from another solicitor in the firm, and I was amazed at how quickly she picked everything up—she hit the ground running the very same day with a clear understanding of where we were in the process. Her dedication and expertise made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable.

I’m so grateful for their hard work and would highly recommend the to anyone in need of a reliable and knowledgeable solicitor!

Sweeney Miller recently did the conveyancing on my sale and purchase.
Communication was ok, but could have been swifter. I found out from the estate agent for the house I was buying that we had exchanged, and then completed some time before Sweeney Miller told me.
The app was reasonably pointless. It was never up to date on the stage of the process and everything was done over email anyway.
I'd asked to use Docusign but was sent everything to print out, sign and post back. Surely in 2024 there are better ways of handling signing of documents.
