Great service and support from friendly solicitors

C&H were recommended to me by a friend, and did the conveyancing for the sale of my mother’s house. This was not the most straightforward sale but they gave very clear advice and also flagged some related issues which was very helpful. They professionalism at all times and good humour in difficult moments were things that I really appreciated. I thought they provided a great service and were good value for money. I definitely recommend them.

Recent House Purchase

I recently bought a house in Northumberland using Cox & Hodgetts as my conveyancing solicitor and I was delighted with the service they provided. As quite often happens with house purchases, there are lots of issues that arise during the process and in every case my solicitor handled them in a timely and professional manner.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Cox & Hodgetts to friends and family.

Appalling

This solicitor is absolutely appalling. The arrogance is extraordinary, as is the rudeness. They are not timely in their response nor do they try and understand the customer need. They do not discuss and collaborate, rather they dictate and tick boxes. Use them at your peril
