Our approach to working with you
Your matter will be dealt with by a qualified solicitor or a legal executive and overseen by a partner. They will assess your needs and expectations at the outset and regularly communicate with you throughout the transaction to ensure you are always up to date. Many of the transactions we handle are high value and/or involve complex issues. We do not operate a high volume caseload system, which means that we can really focus on the individual needs of each of our clients.
We set out to develop an excellent working relationship with you, and all the other parties involved such as estate agents, legal advisers and mortgage brokers. We endeavour to respond to all telephone and email communication on the same day.
While the scale and complexity of your requirements will ultimately determine the cost of our services, we make this crystal clear price promise to you. You will be given a good idea of the likely cost once we have received detailed instructions. You will be kept fully informed of the financial elements of the matter and advised in advance when payments are required. Send our team an enquiry to discuss how we can help you with your residential conveyancing needs.
