Daisy at Wake Smith has been brilliant at handling the documentation for the sale of my house. Unfortunately the proposed purchase of another property has been cancelled but I look forward to help from Amanda’s team when I can proceed with a purchase. I have every confidence in Wake Smith

I contacted Wakesmith solicitors to act as the conveyancing solicitors for my uncles house sale. I was very pleased how they conducted the sale and completed within a short period. I will be using Wakesmith in the future and would recommend there services.
Thanks to all at Wakesmith.

Amanda and her team dealt with our property sale and purchase. Our buyers solicitors were very problematic but wake smith managed to get our sale over the line and our purchase was ready for completion very quickly! Would only use Wake Smith moving forward.

Amanda and team are really lovely. They put up with our buyers solicitors being absolutely awful and were consummate professionals throughout the entire process.
Can't fault them really.
