Sale and Purchase of Property

I have recently completed on the sale of my property and the purchase of my new home. From start to finish the service I received from Gemma Nie and all of her team including Anita, Lauren and Nicole has been quite outstanding. Despite some issues with my vendor's solicitor everyone kept me fully informed and made the process as stress free as possible. They were very sympathetic to my situation as a I had a gap between properties and managed to complete on my new property extremely quickly. I would not hesitate to recommend Martin Tolhurst solicitors to anyone and would certainly use them again for any future transactions. Thank you very much once again to you all! Tracey x

Excellent service

Gemma was always ahead of the game with the entire transactions and worked professionally throughout the whole procedure of moving properties.

I would highly recommend that, given the choice of conveyancing solicitors employed by the company, you choose her to deal with your move.

I was referred to this conveyancing through by my EA and I would say that my solicitor Lucy Nelson did an excellent job on completing my purchase on time. She was very responsive and clarified all the raised queries patiently.I would certainly recommend her to anyone in the future.

We used Martin Tolhurst Gillingham Branch to sell our house and buy a property. The process of finding a new home took a long time due to an aborted purchase but Ellie, our Conveyancer, was always available throughout and was supported by a good team. We asked loads of questions and Ellie patiently answered them all, helping us understand things we were not sure about and, despite the long timeframe, the amount we paid for solicitors fees at the end of the process matched the initial quote despite the delays. One of the reasons we took so long to find a new property was because the solicitor of the first person we were buying from was absolutely awful which convinced us to find somewhere else. This showed us just how good Ellie was in comparison. Overall an excellent service.
