Excellent communication and support on a commercial property purchase

5

Thank you Geraldine for all your help, support and guidance on the purchase of our first commercial property, we really do appreciate everything you have done for us.
By keeping us informed and responding to every email I sent throughout what ended up being a much longer process than anyone expected, we felt extremely supported and as though we had the best team on our side.
We will be recommending you.

Commercial Property Lease

We contracted Thornton Jones to help us negotiate a new commercial property lease for an expansion of our premises. The whole process was transparent and the Mr Knox and Ms Micallef's assistance was always supportive and on point, guiding us trough the process and highlighting the points of concern with all documentation.

Outstanding in every way

Geraldine has been simply outstanding during the sale process. It hasn't been straightforward and very frustrating at times but Geraldine has been persistent on our behalf. She is simply amazing and an outstanding ambassador for Thornton Jones

Highly recommend contacting Thornton Jones for your commercial property needs. I can't thank them enough for their attention to detail, their speed of response to me as their client and the efficiaency getting things sorted for us.
It wasn't an easy purchase, there were quite a few challenges along the way but Stuart and Geraldine were extremely knowledgable, supportive and responsive, I really felt as though they were on our side as their clients.
Thank you, we will be recommending you when people asked who we used.

A big thank you to Stuart and Geraldine at Thornton Jones Solicitors! They handled three files for me at the same time, and I was genuinely impressed by how smoothly everything went. They were always approachable, quick to respond, and really took the time to explain things clearly. Juggling multiple files can't be easy, but they made it sdem effortless. If you need solicitors who genuinely care and know their stuff, I highly recommend Stuart, Geraldine, and the whole team at Thornton Jones. I will 100% be using them again for future business and property work.
