Kim is the standout star

I really don’t have the words to describe how phenomenal Kim has been. I feel like I know her now as a work colleague/a therapist at times/friend and most of all is the best person I’ve worked with in this entire chain. 

Kim puts everything into her work, she is tenacious, pragmatic, quick, forward thinking and communicative.

Others I dealt with were OK but definitely in the shadow of what Kim brought as customer service provision.

Excellent service at a reasonable price

Danielle and her colleagues provided an excellent service throughout my house buying process. They were swift at keeping things moving, and provided clear communication throughout. They are also competitively priced. I would more than recommend them when purchasing property

Sale & Purchase

Throughout a long and incredibly stressful sale and purchase that couldn't be linked timing wise, Joanne and Kimberley were a great help. They understood the urgency of our purchase and reacted to any work needed on the case really quickly. They were always professional and friendly on calls and in messages. A really good service. Would recommend.

Selling property can be a fraught time so you want the legal process to be smooth, with timely responses which demonstrate a detailed understanding of the up to date position. This was always the case and gave me confidence that progression of the legal aspects of the sale had been placed in good hands. Danielle Wallace wasn’t the initial solicitor but the handover was invisible to me and her positive approach to seeing the sale through when it had to be brought forward was reassuring. All in all this gave me a very positive impression both of her work and of MHL.

Excellent service

MHL were recommended by the estate agent. As I was looking for a quick and simple process I took up the offer. A streamlined approach to the process meant loads of early communication, which was reassuring. I am delighted to say their proactive approach continued to contract signing, where I had the opportunity to do so early to avoid any wasted time. This was even more valuable as the transactions happened around d Christmas, so any time saving goes a long way to offsetting time lost over the festivities. All communication is by email, but don't think that is an issue. Indeed all messages were promptly and professionally replied to.

I would definitely use them again as and when it's time to sell. A superb company to use.

Great conveyance team

Very efficient, knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. Always replied to queries pretty much instantly and gave us great confidence that we were in safe hands. Have already recommended them to work colleagues about to go through the house purchase process.

I received clear, thoughtful and detailed advice from Julie on an employment matter which means I have an excellent understanding of my options and how matters are likely to proceed over the coming days and weeks. The appointment was arranged in a prompt manner so as to meet an external deadline. I am grateful to Marshall Hall Levy for seeing me so quickly, especially given that this was the first time I have used their services.

I had a great experience instructing Marshall Hall Levy to act on my behalf for my first house purchase. The communication was brilliant from the start to the end, they answered my queries so quickly and made the process easy and stress free. My solicitor was John and Kimberley and Joanna assisted him. I would highly recommend 😊
