Excellent Service by Zanna at Thornton Jones.

We used Thornton Jones for the sale and purchase of our property. Zanna and her team were fantastic throughout the whole sale and purchase dealing with our questions promptly and being supportive with any problems that arose. I would highly recommend Zanna and Thornton Jones Solicitors.

Highly recommended conveyancing service

I have had the pleasure of having Natalie and Jess handle the conveyancing for two purchases. I can't recommend them highly enough - professional, dedicated and great to deal with - they turned around my recent home buying in under 10 weeks from first enquiry to completion and move-in. When the previous purchase was getting into difficulties from the seller's end of the chain, they fought so my behalf to try and sort things out it was amazing to see. I want to thank both Natalie and Jess for their fantastic service

Fantastic experience with Jess

Jess acted on our behalf in our sale and purchase. She worked tirelessly to make a very stressful and protracted process as pain free as possible. She was very responsive answering all our queries in a timely manner. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

I have used this excellent solicitor firm for three purchases and a sale, and have had an excellent experience every time. Most recently, Jess and Natalie have been fantastic at getting me into my new home, demonstrating continual professionalism, dedication and care. I have recommended them to others already and will continue to do so
