We had the pleasure of working with Leila for the purchase of our first home, and we can’t recommend her enough. From start to finish, Leila was incredibly supportive and made the entire process feel much less overwhelming. As first-time buyers, we were nervous and had a lot of questions, but Leila was always available to answer them and provide clear, helpful advice. Her communication was excellent—she kept us informed at every stage and made sure we felt comfortable with every decision. We truly appreciate her professionalism and the personal care she put into helping us secure our home. If you’re looking for a solicitor who is both knowledgeable and genuinely supportive, Leila is the one to trust!

I cannot recommend Leeanne Cooper highly enough for the outstanding support and expertise she provided during a voluntary police interview. From the outset, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism, deep legal knowledge, and a compassionate approach that made an incredibly traumatic and stressful situation far more manageable.
Leeanne’s guidance was invaluable, her clear, strategic advice and reassuring presence gave me confidence at a time when I felt overwhelmed. She took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring I fully understood my rights. Her ability to remain calm and composed under pressure was very much valued, and it was evident that she genuinely cared about my well-being as much as the legal aspects of the case.
Her expertise and dedication were evident throughout, and I am deeply grateful for the support she provided. If you are in need of professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate legal assistance, I would not hesitate to recommend Leeanne Cooper. She is truly exceptional at what she does.
A representative from Harris Cuffaro & Nichols responded to this review on 14 March, 2025:
Julie, thank you for sharing your experience with Leeanne! We're so glad to hear that her professionalism, legal knowledge, and compassionate approach helped make a difficult situation more manageable. It’s great to know that she provided the clear guidance and support you needed. We truly appreciate your recommendation and kind words!

We would have no hesitation in recommending Leila-Marie for conveyancing work. Very 'on the ball' and thorough. Great attention to detail and really felt she listened and acted accordingly. Guided us through one abortive sale and we are now in our new home and loving it. Expertly held the chain together and pushed at the right moments. Thank you.

Whether you’re an individual or a business, we’re here to guide you through the complexities of the legal system with clarity and care. At Harris Cuffaro Nichols, your needs always come first. Harris Cuffaro Nichols Solicitors was founded in 1997 by Peter Cuffaro, David Nichols and David Harris. Initially set up on the idyllic High Street in Old Harlow, the firm quickly outgrew its original premises, relocating to its current main office at Lion Court. From the beginning, it established strong ties with many of the area’s longstanding agents, businesses, and families, building a reputation as a trusted and respected firm serving Harlow and, over time, expanding its reach beyond the local community. Peter Cuffaro’s motto, “Keep it simple,” set the tone for the firm’s pragmatic, straightforward, and friendly approach, which remains a cornerstone of its culture. This ethos has earned the loyalty of clients, many of whom return time and again for legal support, while fostering a positive environment where staff tend to stay, forming a dedicated and cohesive team. The firm initially gained a formidable reputation in all areas of conveyancing and criminal law, and over time it has evolved into a practice offering expertise across wider areas of law. This success was underpinned by a loyal and dedicated team of support staff who provided the firm with a strong foundation to grow and excel. In April 2024, a new partnership group—comprising Stuart Cooper, Lauren Bond, Emma Marchant, Justin Ginger, and Hassan Mahmood—acquired the firm. Their blend of experience, ambition, and dynamic personalities promises to uphold the firm’s proud legacy and drive it toward an exciting future, ensuring it continues to thrive as it has since its founding.
