Satisfactory service

Georgia was appointed to represent myself over a family matter, During the course of the case I was very impressed and satisfied with not only the way in which she presented herself professionally but also her understanding and sincerety During what was a stressful time for myself she engaged and was understanding about what I was going threw and reassured me .I've no doubt that once Georgia is fully qualified she'll go on to make an excellent solicitor threw not only her profession but her ability to combine her genuine sincerety for her clients During a difficult time I would have no hesitation in recommending her .

Worthy of more than 5 stars

Right from the start the assistance was speedy, spot on and made a house purchase as easy as it could have been. If only the other solicitors in the chain were too we could have completed much sooner
