Used these as they appeared to have good reviews. The initial contact was good. After that its been a painful process. I've found its me requesting updates that prompt any work that needed doing. Its been a poor experience to date and wouldn't reccomend them at all.

I would 100% recommend Wilford Smith. They have acted on behalf of myself and my partner as first time buyers and our Solicitor, Jamie has been absolutely fantastic from start to finish. As first time buyers, we werent aware of the whole process and Jamie has been a massive help with regards to this, explaining everything in depth and being extremely responsive every time I have contacted her. Thank you so much!
