Conveyancing
I used Gaines & Wilkinson for both my sale and purchase and found it quite an efficient process despite it been a stressful time…. On the occasions I needed help you could always pick up the phone or email and someone would get back to you with advice…. Overall it went well and would recommend Gaines & Wilkinson with your conveyancing needs

Their patience was appreciated.
Gaines and Wilkinson kept me informed all the way through, keeping one step ahead of all parties concerned. The office staff were friendly and keen to help me with everything I felt unsure of or concerned about. Thank you especially to the solicitorJulia and administrator Jackie who showed patience with me, as at times I know I can be a little pedantic. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
