Good experience

Emma and Emily handled the sale of my flat. With all the EWS1 issues and painful management companies they were always on hand to chase and provide updates whenever possible, the speed of their response to emails was extremely impressive. Would use them again.

Brilliant Conveyancing

I could not recommend Emma (and GoodLaw) highly enough. Clear communication, quick to reply and will drive a purchase/sale for you. There was a shocking solicitor further down the chain which on multiple occasions threatened the transactions but her clear communication and perseverance ensured everything went through.
Highly recommended!

Appointed solicitor for sale and purchase

Fiona, Kundai and team were excellent, couldn't fault their services, always available to be spoken to and really quick to respond on any query. They help deal with our sale and purchase, Fiona's expertise helped keep the chain together when it was almost at point of falling through. Forever grateful. Would highly recommend.

Moving house

Fiona and Kundai and Nikki were really great with our conveyancing process.
They made a very stressful time as straightforward as they could. Always replying to emails in a timely manner, with clear responses.
Thank you for the help. Will recommend.

So good I went back

I cannot rate Fiona and her team highly enough. I have now bought and sold with them twice and they are, by far, the best conveyancers I have dealt with. They are remarkably responsive and proactive and they are, above all, human and honest with their responses and queries. Thank you so much for making such a stressful experience manageable.

Very professional and efficient service

Fiona and her team helped my wife and I complete on our first property purchase, and we could not be happier with the support we received. We had a number of obstacles to overcome, including cash transfers from overseas, Japanese knotweed, and the Christmas holidays, but the team were exceptional and attentive to our every need. We would certainly recommend Fiona and her team at GoodLaw to anyone who is navigating buying property in the UK!

Emily has gone above and beyond for us. There was no question un answered, always fast to respond and always kept us in the loop. The list could go on, and we will highly recommend.

Excellent team

Fiona handled a property purchase for us. She responds very quickly to queries and has a meticulous attention to detail. I had full faith in her throughout, and always felt that she would ensure that every point was covered. I also really liked the direct contact with her - it was very reassuring. We were under time pressure to complete by Christmas and, despite slow responses from our sellers’ team, she still managed to get it over the line in time. I would highly recommend her and would have no hesitation in asking Fiona to represent us again.

We have had an absolutely brilliant service from Fiona Mcleish twice now when buying and selling houses. It is so rare to deal with a conveyancing team that are responsive, proactive and so delightfully human. Goodlaw are reasonably priced, but I would happily pay double to deal with a team like this compared to any other conveyancer I have ever dealt with - they are often the weakest link in the chain but Fiona held ours together.

Absolutely first class service! I had a question regarding my will and sent in a simple online query. Within a day I received an email from Alice explaining everything I needed to know! Very professional and absolutely no 'pressure' to formally engage further legal services. I will definitely use them for my future legal requirements.

Absolutely excellent service from Fiona and Kundai in dealing with our sale and purchase. Very professional, friendly and efficient. We had total confidence in you which made the anxiety and hassle of moving home so much easier.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend, or use, your services again. Thank you so much.

I engaged with Goodlaw solicitors in 2023 ref Power of attorney and a Will. I engaged with them again in 2024 ref a deed of gift and I would recommend Carl Ingram and his team to anyone looking for the above services. The service was excellent as was the process. Carl is a credit to this practice (having only dealt with Carl in fairness) and my experience is that as a customer you will not regret dealing with Goodlaw solicitors.
