The firm also publishes information on fee transparency, as well as on residential property, estate administration and wills, lasting powers of attorney (LPA) and deputyship.

Residential conveyancing: the core of its activity

Many of the client testimonials on the site refer to home sales and purchases, first-time purchases, lease extensions and staircasing processes under shared ownership. Clients repeatedly mention several professionals at the firm, including Mark Goreham, Louisa Lenton, Aaron Browning, Carley and David Durn, for their handling of matters, their responsiveness and the clarity of their explanations.

Several testimonials highlight that the firm kept clients informed throughout the process, responded to queries by email and telephone, and managed transactions that became complicated due to issues such as a land transfer. One client also notes that the final bill was lower than the initial estimate.
