I have required the services of Gisby Harrison and I have found them professional and explain everything simply in laymen terms to me . There advice was crucial as I had not been in the postion before and found them honest and reassuring. I would without hesitation reccomend and if needed use there service again. The process was daunting to me, but I was confident in Yvonne Frazer and her team

Sarra was hugely supportive when acting for both our sale and purchase. The many complications during the process were always carefully explained to us and we felt comfortable following her recommendations at every stage. Sarra worked well beyond office hours and weekends in order to ensure progress was made when timing became tight. She was pragmatic when dealing with problems and kept costs contained - whilst always ensuring we were well protected. Sarra negotiated policies on our behalf which resulted in meaningful savings. Above all, she was a pleasure to deal with and we will always be grateful

Sarra done the conveyancing on a very lengthy and complicated leasehold property for us. From the outset she rang me after work hours and explained the process and more importantly said she would always be available day or night for advice.
Sarra was true to her word, very prompt and professional at all times in answering queries . It was very comforting to know we were in safe experienced hands, a real credit to her profession and we would have no hesitation in recommending her
