Conveyancing of our house

Lyndsey & Courtney were always friendly & helpful. Sometimes they were not available and occasionally I had to phone back. The solicitors for the buyers of our house were extremely slow.
A date to exchange on 1st October was agreed early on but they were so slow that the go ahead was given at 11am the day before.

Lyndsey is the best conveyancing Solicitor I have ever worked with. She is super professional but also very caring, which is the best combination.
I have already recommended her to many people.

We have used Bailey Smailes several times for both conveyancing and more complex legal matters, faultless service with efficient and friendly solicitors who speak 'our' language. We have recomended to friends and family who have all been pleased with the level of service provided.
