Used AMD for our house sale and subsequent purchase, Sophie was professional and explained complex matters in terms that can be understood. Her management of chain information and patience with estate agents helped make our sale and purchase stress free. Highly recommend.

Report
I have been using AMD Solicitors to navigate through sale and purchase of property recently on recommendation. I have been consistently impressed by the level of professionalism, knowledge and flexibility I have been presented with. Although the whole team at The Mall, Clifton have been extremely good and the service very cost effective, my personal contact, Rebecca, has taken client centred care to the next level. I can't praise this service highly enough. MH - Clifton Village

Report
My solicitor at AMD Solicitors, Sophie, has completely overturned my assumptions of working with solicitors. She has been incredibly thorough leaving no stone left unturned, she has been polite and accommodating and I feel the service she has provided has been second to none. I will (and have) continue to recommend her to any friend or family member looking to purchase a house.
