I am a dual-qualified lawyer specialising in residential conveyancing. I qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive in 2020 and a Licensed Conveyancer in 2023, and have over 11 years’ experience in dealing with a variety residential conveyancing transactions. I have worked in Bristol and South Gloucestershire for my whole career, and still work remotely in Bristol. Since 2017 I have specialised in acting for clients purchasing new build homes directly from Developers. As well as new build conveyancing, I deal with the purchase of older properties, the sale of property, re-mortgages, Help to Buy loan redemptions, and some Transfer of Equity work. I deal with clients across the country, they do not need to be based in Bristol. I pride myself on my quick response times to assist my clients in meeting their exchange deadlines. I believe that clients should be regularly updated - and as I am a Consultant, clients will deal with me personally, rather than being passed to an unqualified team or admin staff. I support my clients personally from start to finish. If you think I can assist you in any way, please do not hesitate to get in touch for a free, no obligation, estimate.

Great experience
Emma helped us every step of the way with the purchase of our first home. As first time buyers it can be nerve wracking going through this process but Emma gave us sound advice and was always quick to respond to emails. She kept us up to date and reassured us whenever we had concerns. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Emma!

First time buyer
Emma was amazing from start to finish. She helped us exchange contracts about 10 months before the completion of our new build and was always on hand in that time if we had any questions about the process. Completion was so efficient, just woke up on the day and shortly after my phone rang to say it was done. 11/10

Fantastic!
I don't normally write reviews but I have to say how happy I am with Elite Law Solicitors. Emma has been nothing short of fantastic with our house move. From the first moment I spoke to her to the day of completion she has been really helpful and proactive. It wasn't the most straightforward process but she kept everything on track and was always happy to answer our questions and queries. I would happily recommend Emma and Elite to any of my friends and family.

New House Purchase
Emma was a great help, she handled everything I needed straight away and always returned my call / email promptly. I felt that things were in safe hands, and I was confident that there was no delays on her part. We moved in on the original day set out in January, and she kept informed of how things were progressing, let me know if there was information she required. I thought the fees were reasonable for the work carried out. Many thanks for all your help.

Couldn’t have asked for a better conveyancer!
We couldn’t recommend Emma enough - she helped with the sale of our old house and purchase of our new home. We never had any doubt that she would contact us with updates as soon as possible and never had to chase her once. She was always available and approachable, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would recommend Emma to anyone and everyone!

Excellent, efficient service throughout my sale and purchase
I had a fantastic experience with Emma handling both the sale of my property and the purchase of my new home. She was consistently helpful, responsive, and incredibly efficient throughout the entire process. I felt fully informed at every stage and confident that everything was being handled with care and precision. Her professionalism and clear communication made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others!
