Outstanding
I cannot recommend Marion enough, I would go so far to say had it not been for Marion and her determination I would never have moved into my new home in time to meet my moving in date. Should I ever need to use the services of a solicitor again, I would think twice about contasting Marion.

I would like to thank Claire and Cameron for their excellent job that allowed me to purchase my first house. I really appreciated their reactivity, their profesionnalism and their kindness from the beginning of the process. I have received a great legal advice along with an efficient and friendly service, which allowed us to be ready to exchange contracts before anyons in the chain. I highly recommend this firm and I would definetely use their services in the future.

Appplication for the EU Settlement Scheme
I previously made consultation with various legal advisors in order to reinstate my Indefinate Leave to Remain status in the UK. I left for family reasons but returned. The advise and information provided did not satisfy my requirements. I contacted Ellisons solicitors. I explained my situation to Meenal . I was informed that the advice I had been given was inaccurate. Meenal explained a clear legal path to resolve my situation providing a positive result within 4 weeks after consultation. I was impressed by Meenal's legal knowledge of my situation and the efforts that was made to resolve it.

Professional Service
Marion, my solicitor with Ellison's, dealt with me professionally at all times. I had the upmost trust in her expertise and diligence in dealing with the purchase of my leasehold property. Her direction was concise and forthright, and I received regular updates. I am now looking forward to my new life in my new home. Thank you so much

We have worked with Ellisons for a number of years now, specifically Ross Wiltshire and Devon, however we have used many other departments of Ellisons and always received a fantastic level of service. Very approachable, professional and friendly and would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

Audrey McKenna helped us with our recent property sale and purchase.
The purchase turned out to be a difficult affair mainly because the vendors had chosen a large conveyancing firm who frankly were not good at all.
Audrey handled everything with infinite patience and professionalism and helped get the case over the line in spite of the vendors side.
Her service was exceptional, and I wouldn't go anywhere else for my conveyancing needs.
