We appreciate that buying your home is probably one of the greatest investments you will ever make, so we aim to look after you. We return your calls, keep you informed and talk to you in plain English without the use of legal jargon.
While we strive to keep our costs competitive, our primary concern is to provide a high quality, personal service. Using the cheapest conveyancer now could prevent you from selling your greatest asset later!
We place considerable emphasis on legal skills and experience at all levels. We have a team of experienced lawyers ready and able to help you. All work undertaken is supervised by a Partner. Conveyancing, perhaps more than any other area of law, needs good client and solicitor communication. We work closely with you to ensure you are fully informed and your interests are fully protected. We can communicate by post, phone, fax or e-mail, whichever you prefer. Out of hours or home visits can be arranged.
At the outset we provide a step by step guide to buying, selling or remortgaging. We then provide a detailed written report on your purchase, including a full explanation of the procedures involved, a summary of relevant details and advise on the searches we have made. In most cases we will also act for your lender. Whether you are buying, selling, mortgaging or remortgaging, the sooner you contact us the better.

Where parties act together in a contract as partners they have joint and several liability. In addition to all the partners being responsible together, each partner is also liable individually for the entire contract - so a creditor could recover a whole debt from any one of them individually, leaving that person to recover their shares from the rest of the partners.
