Declaration of Trust

Required a legal document to be drawn up for part ownership of a house. Iain recommended a declaration of trust which he drew up and actioned. All went through with no problems, excellent.

We used Fraser Dawbarns for both selling and buying and were really impressed. Adele was brilliant throughout - quick to respond, clear with advice and supportive during stressful moments. Great value for money too! Thank you Adele and Iain!

Brilliant Solicitors

After a bad experience, we were given the details of Fraser Dawbarns with high recommendations. We were not disappointed. The service was exceptional. No dramas, honest and professional. We couldn't have asked for anything better.

Excellent Service

5

I have received excellent service from Iain Grimes and Adele Satur. Responses to my questions were fast and accurate. I felt they worked in my best interest throughout. Initially by obtaining a lease extension then onto the sale of the property and simultaneous purchase of another property. Advice given to me was practical, knowledgeable, easy to understand and free of legal jargon unless necessary which was also explained fully. Both Iain and Adele are very approachable. Would highly recommend.
