I would recommend this company based on my experience with Gary, I hired him to facilitate the leasing of a commercial property.
Gary was polite, informative and professional throughout every exchange. He gave me detailed advice and helped me to understand the process. Thank you for your help Nelson's / Gary.

It comes to us all. We need a solicitor. Ask for Zara or Glynis. Its as simple as that. Honest, caring, trust worthy, professional - its a legal light guiding you through the hard times and you dont dread a phone call updating you; you look forwards to them. Strange but true.

I have recently used Nelson Solicitors, (my solictor was Haidee Harriott) for the sale of my flat in London. A worry for all sellers as well as buyers is the speedwith which the various legal documents are dealt with. Not least because there was a stamp duty deadline hovering over this particular sale. So if speed and professionalism is of importance (it always is) I can strongly recommend this company. The documents seem to have been dealt with instantly at all times. And yes, the buyers managed to save their stamp duty

Haidee at Nelson Solicitors provided fantastic and efficient service in advising us on the sale of our flat. She was always very responsive and communicated clearly with us at every step of the way. She was proactive which allowed us to complete the sale in our desired timeframes. Highly recommended!

I was given Nelsons solicitor because a family member recommended them to me. The service which I received was brilliant. Jodie kept me informed and updated with each stage of the process even in this time of COVD-19 lock down! . Her experience and knowledge was invaluable, in guiding me to make the right decision. Thank you so much Jodie.
