Professional and reassuring service
I have just bought a property. I chose Eileanora to do the conveyancing, because I have employed her in the past and am aware of how quickly and efficiently she works. On this occasion she excelled herself.
I thought it would be impossible to complete the purchase before the 1st of April, which is when the stamp duty was increased. Eileanora worked around the clock to beat the deadline and completed the purchase on the 31st March- Amazing.
I am grateful to her and also to the other members of staff at Fraser Dawbarns, who were polite and helpful every time I needed to contact them.

Handling of my divorce case
Difficult time of course, but made easier by the way my solicitor handled the matter. I always felt that I knew what the overall picture was. I was kept appraised as to the next stage.

Good experience for a first time buyer
Kirsty and the team at Fraser Dawbarns were very professional and helpful in the conveyancing process for my first house purchase. Any minor issues were quickly rectified and the support and advice was thorough and timely. A complex process was greatly smoothed by the team.

Top Class Conveyancing Service
We were extremely happy that our solicitor not only answered all of our emails and telephone calls, but also initiated some of the phone calls to be able to explain problems that arose. Kirsty and her team chased the management company daily. If it wasn't for our chain falling through twice and difficulties experience with the management company the whole process would have been painless. I certainly intend to use your service again and have already recommended to neighbours.

About this branch
Description
Fraser Dawbarns LLP is one of the leading law firms serving West Norfolk and East Cambridgeshire with over 115 staff and offices based in Wisbech, King’s Lynn, Downham Market, March and Ely. We pride ourselves in delivering a professional service and giving our clients total peace of mind. Fraser Dawbarns LLP can trace its roots back to the Old Market in Wisbech when James Edward Fraser opened for business in 1842. The Dawbarn family opened for business in 1885 and the names of the two firms changed regularly thereafter as partners joined and then retired. Both firms were involved in mergers and takeovers of other local practices involving expansion into new locations. The latest name change took place in 2008, when Dawbarns Pearson merged with Frasers of March and Wisbech to become Fraser Dawbarns LLP. This was soon followed by the further merger of Fraser Dawbarns with Waterman Cheetham of Wisbech. In 2018, Fraser Dawbarns brought our services to a new location for the first time in many years with the opening of a modern office in the city of Ely. Our lawyers are specialists in commercial law, Wills and probate, agricultural law, divorce and family law, contentious probate, residential conveyancing, legal disputes, employment law and personal injury and they advise a wide range of clients across the region and the UK. In the 2019 edition of the Legal 500 directory (The Clients’ Guide to the UK Legal Profession), we are recommended for the following practice areas: Corporate and Commercial Debt Recovery Employment Personal Injury: Claimant Agriculture and Estates Contentious Trusts and Probate Family Personal Tax, Trusts and Probate Commercial Property
