Mirror wills for myself and husband

From start to finish Paul was incredibly professional, friendly, and understanding of our needs. Nothing was too much trouble, from emails to last minute telephone calls to get our wills drafted before a holiday. We would 100% recommend Paul and will definitely turn to him again when we need any further assistance in the future, hence the five star rating

Sale and purchase

Samantha was exceptional in managing our sale and purchase, ensuring everything was clear and seamless. While Samantha was on holiday, her secretary Maxine took over our case and proved to be just as brilliant and capable. She consistently reassured us and demonstrated a genuine understanding of our feelings. I will certainly choose this solicitor again in the future. Thank you both!

selling property with a conveyance solicitor

I found the experience of selling a property very stressful as I had not done this before but I found Barbara Stewart and her team made the process very easy for me ,as they were always very helpful with any questions I had or anything i did not understand and always kept me informed by email as to the progress of the sale . They also explained legal terms I did not understand in great detail.

Samantha Newton and the team were second to none. There was a boundary issue and the chain all needed to move before stamp duty went up, even during this challenging time they managed to get it across the line.

Excellent service

Excellent service from Samantha Newton and her team. After losing 3 buyers, we succeeded on the fourth.
Samantha did a brilliant job and we would highly recommend her. She did a lot of work, having had 4 buyers, and although it became tiresome at times, she never gave up. She was always available to talk to and was always cheerful, along with her team. Well done.

Would very much like to thank Charlotte Hatcher and team at Martin Tolhurst Solicitors for such a professional, efficient, supportive and well communicated service provided to us during the otherwise difficult process of managing the Grant of Probate for our very dear father who sadly passed away recently. From start to finish their help, expertise and sense of urgency was second to none. Thanks again and very much appreciated. Steve and Jane (Executors)
