I had an excellent experience working with Mohammed for the sale of my commercial property. His service was truly impeccable — he always took my calls or returned them promptly, and replied to emails quickly and thoroughly. He is knowledgeable, professional, and a pleasure to work with.
Throughout the process, he maintained a high level of professionalism while also being approachable and easy to communicate with. I felt confident and well-supported at every step. Highly recommended.

Ella King and her assistant Eleanor Dove provided an excellent first class service when dealing with the sale of my late parents' house.

I am very grateful for the friendly, caring and a positive experience I received and would highly recommend this firm to all. Thank you.

From start to finish Mr Rahman exceeded our expectations. Original timelines were far surpassed. In instances where third parties delayed matters such as the Land Registry, Mr Rahman went the extra mile and made contact with them to speed the process up.

From start to finish, Jordan Harrison, Sarah Halford and the BMTC team handled our two conveyancing projects very well. An accurate estimate of costs was clearly explained at the outset and BMTC kept us fully informed at every stage through to completion. All our questions were answered promptly and knowledgeably. BMTC were professional, knowledgeable, approachable and supported us throughout. Thank you BMTC. Well done.

Mohamed was incredibly rude on the phone, stating that he was wasting his time (on a 5 minute call) without even listening to the case we were presenting or answering any question. He also implied we didn't have enough money to pursue a case. Unprofessional and rude, don't contact them if you need any help.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Ella King. She was professional, efficient, and incredibly thorough throughout the entire process. Her attention to detail and clear communication made everything so much easier and stress-free. She kept me informed at every step, responded quickly to any questions I had, and always had my best interests at heart. I truly appreciate her dedication and expertise — I couldn’t have asked for better support. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and outstanding solicitor!

As a first-time buyer, the process of purchasing a home can be quite overwhelming, and I did find the communication a bit lacking at times during the early stages — responses were sometimes delayed, which was frustrating when trying to understand the next steps. That’s the only reason I wouldn’t give a full 5 stars.
That said, once things got moving, the team were professional, helpful, and supportive throughout the remainder of the process. They handled everything efficiently, kept me updated as we approached exchange, and answered any questions I had with clarity. I really appreciated their effort in the final stages to ensure everything went smoothly. Overall, a very good experience.

Borneo Hughes Martell had been a well-known name in Northampton since the early 1970s although its history as a Bedford based law firm can be traced as far back as 1869. Since 1982 it had based its practice in offices that had formerly been the science block of Notre Dame Convent School in the town centre. The firm Turner Coulston was formed in 1993 when local solicitors Keith Turner & Ashton merged with Leo Coulston & Co and continued business from the Billing Road offices that Leo Coulston & Co had occupied for many years. In 1996, the firm acquired the legal practice of Clark & Co in Kettering and then incorporated Hodson Margetts, solicitors in Raunds in 2004. Today, the 9 partner firm of Borneo Martell Turner Coulston and its total staff of around 50 people across its offices in Northampton and Kettering offers a comprehensive legal service to both commercial and individual clients. We have a strong team of lawyers and support staff enabling us to offer our clients expert advice in a broader range of areas.
