Fantastic service

Exchanged today on the purchase of my new home. Sweeney Miller were recommended to me by my mortgage advisor and have been fantastic throughout. Stephanie Rutherford has been brilliant with communication, prompt with replies and has ensured everything is done as quickly as possible, despite the sale being delayed after having to go to probate.

I will 100% use Sweeney Miller again in future if I decide to move.

Would Highly Recommend

I recently had the opportunity to purchase my first home through the Right to Buy scheme with Sweeney Miller. As a first-time buyer, I chose Sweeney Miller as my solicitor, and I am pleased to share that their professionalism throughout the process was apparent from start to finish. The customer service and contact team were consistently attentive, promptly answered calls, and effectively redirected inquiries when necessary. All staff members I interacted with demonstrated a high level of professionalism, and Mitchell Miller provided exceptional support, even when facing tight deadlines, by offering regular updates. I would gladly recommend Sweeney Miller to anyone seeking a reliable and capable solicitor.

Great solicitor

We worked with Zeeshan for buying our first home. He was amazing. He kept us updated all the way and was very quick communicating things to us. Zeeshan made buying our first home a great experience.

Exceptional service from start to finish! Mitchell was professional, knowledgeable, and communicative throughout the entire process. They guided me through the complexities of local searches etc with ease, ensuring I was always informed and up-to-date. Their expertise and dedication resulted in a seamless and stress-free experience. I highly recommend Mitchell and their team for their outstanding work and commitment to client satisfaction. Five stars isn't enough - they'd get a million from me if I could!"

Shahar and Megan have been fantastic throughout the mortgage repayment

Shahar and Megan have been fantastic throughout the mortgage repayment and redemption process. Their support has been invaluable — they guided me through the property repayment paperwork with clarity and efficiency, and helped confirm the origin of funds smoothly and professionally. I really appreciated their responsiveness, attention to detail, and overall helpful attitude. I’d definitely recommend their service to anyone going through a similar process!

Amazing Service will always recommend and use again

Zeeshan and Anthony was our solicitors but I did communicate mostly with Zeeshan and he was amazing at responding and helping to get things done for our house purchase, which included chasing the other side to progress.

He always let me know when to except updates and where he was currently in the progress and explained everything clearly and answered questions when I wasn’t sure of stuff.

As our first time house purchase and being young having not dealt with solicitors or legal stuff before it was a smooth and stress free experience. I couldn’t recommend a more professional but friendly service.

Definitely worth the extra money compared to some other quotes I got. Glad I went with them then trying to save a few hundred, their quick responses, patients with my many emails and getting the job done is well worth the extra money.

This was the second time in 6 months that we used Sweeney Miller (Leanne and Alicia). We found them flexible, efficient and responsive to our communication with them. They are not the cheapest solicitors but we're pleased with how they conduct business.

My purchase went well. Communication was fast and reliable. When my conveyancer was unavailable a trainee was on hand to assist so I was never left waiting for help if I needed it. I do feel that a bit more guidance could have be given on what stage I was at and what would happen next. I think this would have made the process a little smoother. The people answering the phones could be a little more personable. I would use them again.
