I chose Wake Smith for conveyancing because they had already done work for me and I had been impressed by their response times and professionalism. Not all solicitors are the same. I had had a poor experience with a different big-name solicitor in South Yorkshire, so I know the difference.

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.
