Having worked in property for 20 years and in that time having dealt with 100's of solicitors, I can say with some authority that working with Healys, specifically Gabi Menkeviciute and Nic Tiong has been an absolute pleasure. They acted for me in my sale and onwards purchase and the whole process from start to finish was superb. I will not go anywhere else. Well done the both of you.

Nic Tiong and Gabija Menkeviciute were both fantastic in helping me as a first time buyer. They were incredibly knowledgeable and understanding with what felt my hundred questions throughout the process. Even my father was impressed with the quality of his work and he is hard to please! I would highly recommend Healys.

We used John and team for our recent house purchase in Battersea. They were fantastic with us on such a short timeline and we wouldn't have been able to complete in that timeframe with any other firm. Truly grateful for their service and we would only use this firm in the future for any other house purchases.
