I have just completed the sale of my property using the services of Georgina Hawkes at Fairstep Solicitors. This was the 2nd time as I received brilliant service from Georgina when I bought my property.
I have to say the selling process this time was much longer than expected. We met with unexplained delays that were nothing to do with Georgina or myself but she showed great patience and remained extremely professional.
I can not fault her or her company and would not hesitate to use her services again. Highly recommended.

The team was friendly and helpful and complete remortgage on time. But was disappointed when they charged us more than the quote saying more work was required when it was just a standard remortgage I do not believe we should of been charged more than the quote received when it is a remortgage and do not understand how it could create more work when completion date was not very urgent! Also at no point was this commuicated about price increase until they sent us a invoice which for me is not very professional ! We did work something out but still very unhappy with how this played out and the extra cost for us.

Before selling my property, I had no idea what I was doing - now it's sold, I still have no clue but it hasnt mattered once because I feel like I've just been taken care of from start to finish, whilst the team have just smoothly sorted everything to a professional standard. Thanks very much to Leia and Gemma for being such terrific solicitors.
