Fantastic Service
Fantastic Service provided by Kathryn and Jennifer. Refreshing to see efficient , friendly and high level of professionalism with solicitors who are willing to be available for clients.
I was kept informed throughout and felt that Kathryn had my best interest in mind at all times and provided honest advice at all times. A real pleasure to deal with and I would definitely recommend and use again.
Many Thanks- Javid

Thank you Kathryn!
I cannot thank Kathryn enough for all her help and support throughout the process of buying my first home. As a first-time buyer, the experience could have been overwhelming, but Kathryn made everything feel smooth, clear, and manageable from start to finish.
She was incredibly responsive, always happy to answer my questions—no matter how small—and kept me updated every step of the way. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and reassuring manner gave me great confidence during the entire journey. It genuinely felt like she had my best interests at heart.
I’m so grateful for her guidance and would highly recommend Kathryn to anyone looking for a solicitor who is not only knowledgeable and efficient, but also kind and approachable. Thank you again, Kathryn—you made a stressful process so much easier, and I’m now happily settled in my new home!

Purchasing new home.
I have bought and sold a few houses in the past, always used Forbes with Kathryn Lofthouse and Jennifer Ross overseeing the process. I have just completed on my new home and the service I have received has been brilliant. They are so responsive, helpful and friendly. The cost is reasonable too. Friends have suffered long drawn out processes with solicitors who are slow to answer, with one telling clients not to chase her up in her email signature! Nothing could be further from my experience. Couldn’t recommend Forbes more.

Truly outstanding service provided by Stephen, Kathryn and the team
My partner and I used Forbes Solicitors to buy our first home, and we are so, so happy we did. We were hit with several unfortunate circumstances outside of our control throughout the process, and Stephen, Kathryn, and the rest of the Forbes team, dealt with every single one with extreme diligence, professionalism and care. We were constantly updated with the information we needed, and we were always met with empathetic and kind natures. We are truly grateful for their work, they really went above and beyond to get our house purchase over the line and to an extremely pressing deadline. We would absolutely recommend Forbes Solicitors, and Stephen and Kathryn in particular, to anyone wishing to purchase a property.

3rd time using and not let down
This is the 3rd time of using Forbes and not let down again. Thank you to Kathryn for her support and hard work on behalf of our late parents house. Kathryn always responded efficiently to my calls, emails and information I sent. Took plenty of time with me and my brother when we visited the office during a very busy March, due to the end of stamp duty deadline. Kathryn, also really helped our buyers to prevent a high increase in stamp duty to make sure completion happened on 31st March 2025.

First Rate Residential Conveyancing
Kathryn and the whole team at Forbes worked really hard to get a residential sale across the line for us ahead of the stamp duty changes. We've used them numerous times for sales and purchases and they're always friendly, professional and prompt.
