Outstanding service from start to finish, 13 weeks for a house purchase and everything about T, B & I was effortless. Rosalynd and Georgia are fantastic and I cannot praise their professionalism, honesty and attention to detail enough. I would highly recommend and I would 100% use them again.

Tony made the full the full experience simple and really straight forward. Ive been with different solicitors over the years but Im going to be completely honest, at first I was very apprehensive about which Solictor to choose. As soon as I selected Tilly Bailey and Irvine I was honestly shocked how good the service was, I was kept me in the loop, online portal was great any issues were dealt with immediately. Not only this but they kept a really good link with the estate agents which inevitably kept things moving. Overall I thought excellent service and thanks you Tony for your work on this
