We found Mr. Mahmood has done a great work for our house sale. During the sale, he was willing to chase up the house buyer solicitor to ensure all outstanding items were completed as earliest as possible. His works were quick, precise and on time. He was willing to help us resolve all problems. He is brilliant and smart. We would grade him A on our works.

Mr Batchelor acted on my stepson’s behalf who had been arrested for a very serious crime. The case wasn’t straightforward as my stepson was mentally unstable and was sectioned on arrest. I contacted Harris Cuffaro & Nichols based in Old Harlow and they assigned Robert to us. He advised and explained, very clearly, everything that had to be done in order to prepare for Court. His professional and kind manor was nothing less than superlative and we all want to thank him for his hard work. Thank you Robert.
A representative from Harris Cuffaro & Nichols responded to this review on 22 April, 2025:
Thank you for your kind words, Jane. We’re glad Robert was able to support your family with professionalism and care during such a difficult time. Your appreciation means a great deal.

We were very happy with the support we received from our solicitor Emma and the wider NC&N team in buying our first home. Emma's responses were always quick and clear and her approach was thorough, meaning that we were able to complete with absolute confidence that everything was in order! Would happily recommend to anyone!

We recently worked with Justin for the sale of our property and the purchase of our new home, and we couldn't be happier with the service provided. He was professional, responsive, and incredibly thorough throughout. He made everything feel much less stressful—clearly explaining each step and handling issues efficiently. We'd highly recommend Justin to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive solicitor.

I would highly recommend using Harris Cuffaro and Nichols when buying/selling your home. The work Emma Marchant did was excellent and efficiently completed, she kept us informed and updated at all times during the conveyancing process, and responded quickly to any queries we had. This really helped in reducing the stress involved in selling our home. I only wish all solicitors in our chain cared as much about client care as her company, there are some really awful ones out there. Choose you solicitor wisely, you are in safe hands with Harris Cuffaro and Nichols.

I had the pleasure of working with Hassan Mahmood for my recent property transaction, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the service I received. From start to finish, Hassan was incredibly responsive and proactive, always keeping me informed of every step and promptly addressing any concerns or questions I had.
He handled the entire conveyancing process with exceptional efficiency, ensuring that everything was completed smoothly and ahead of schedule.
His professionalism and commitment to client care were evident throughout, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free.
If you’re looking for a conveyancing solicitor who is reliable, responsive, and exceptionally diligent, I highly recommend Hassan Mahmood.

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.
