The value of a quality solicitor must be measured not just by their charges but their overall service. A poor service will not only cause unnecessary stress and inconvenience but commonly results in delay and additional costs, for example further mortgage repayments and bills on your sale and extra fees on your purchase. There is of course the risk of losing the transaction over a delay.

We are not a volume or factory conveyancing business.

Instead, we will offer you a bespoke service at an attractive and affordable price. We only take on limited matters thus ensuring our focus is firmly placed upon our clients and we will guide you step by step through the conveyancing process aiming to make it as simple and stress-free as possible.

We believe in providing you with an unrivalled service so that we can successfully retain your valued custom and continue upon a long standing solicitor-client relationship.

We can help in all areas of residential and commercial conveyancing, including:

• buying and selling
• re-mortgaging
• shared ownership

• granting of leases
