Professional, friendly and rapid service.

My partner and I purchased a property and Melissa was absolutely fantastic. She was quick to respond to emails, so professional and helped us understand the process much better, not to mention everything was dealt with rapidly. We met Melissa to sign our papers and she was so warm and friendly. We will definitely be using AFG Law again. Thankyou Melissa.

AFG Law Bolton Branch - Outstanding service

AFG acted on our behalf during the recent sale of our old property and purchase of our new home. Whilst the sale was relatively straight forward, the purchase was more complex. Throughout the entire process communication was always clear and transparent. Importantly, I also felt in safe hands given the complicated nature of the purchase. First class service from Carl and well supported by Laura. Thank you guys.

Melissa has recently dealt with conveyancing on my recent purchase. It wasn’t straight forward but Melissa explained everything to me and worked really hard in order to complete before April 1st.

Really professional but personable too which put my mind at ease.

Melissa answered my emails almost immediately and kept me updated will all aspects of my purchase.

Would recommend Melissa & AFG law.

Thanks Melissa I appreciate all you did for me 😊

Long and stressful process

I had both my sale and purchase with AFG with Rebecca mannion and Rebecca Coles.

I couldn't rate these ladies highly enough both have worked tirelessly to support me with some quite difficult and interesting issues along the way on quite a tight time scale, both ladies were honest and transparent from the start and extremely meticulous on both transactions and paperwork.
I would a million percent come to AFG again if I was to ever move house again....it's definately not on the cards after a reficulous set of buyers and sellers!!

Excellent experience. Katrina was so helpful and understanding and extremely patient. Having just lost my husband I needed to sort a new will out and set up LPA, but still being in quite an emotional state I found it hard, however Katrina did understand and gave me the time I needed. She also explained everything very clearly.

Thank you so much to Melissa Hart and all at AFG who made the process of our first home purchase go smoothly and efficiently.
Melissa was professional and so helpful throughout the whole process and provided daily/weekly updates.
Melissa explained everything in detail and answered any questions we had in minutes.
We would highly recommend the firm and will definitely be using them in the future.

Thank you so much, from Ell & Ryan x

We were recommended to use Katrina Hurst at AFG Law by our financial advice team. We wanted to get Lasting Power of Attorneys for each other, Financial and Health and also take the opportunity to update our Will's at the same time.

From our first meeting, Katrina was friendly, engaging and extremely knowledgeable about all the processes involved. Her advice proved invaluable and the speed of her actions, particularly around such a busy time as Christmas was refreshing.
Everything was completed as she had stated and at a price that was competitive for the works involved.

We have dealt with other solicitors over time in the past and we would have no hesitation in recommending Katrina for any sort of legal work that you may require. Friendly, efficient, knowledgeable and highly skilled.
