From the first phone call I received from Ian I felt confident in his caring and supportive approach. He understood completely what my needs were and worked very quickly and professionally to secure the monies I needed to purchase a property. I believe he worked very much above and beyond what was needed and secured and made available the funds within 10 days of the initial contact.
I would not hesitate to use this company again and would recommend Ian to anyone needing financial support.
Thank you Ian for everything 😁

I have used Blacks solicitors on several occasions because they are friendly, very professional, very thorough, & in my experience have always provided an excellent service.
Most importantly, you are always able to contact & speak to the solicitor thats dealing with your affairs, especially solicitor Mr Will Ashton, who would always go out of his way to please his clients.

I have used Hannah Richardson several of times, I find her to be extremely helpful and always went the extra mile to get the refinance in time when I had very tight deadlines to exit my loans.
Also I want to thank Leanne bona for her assistant too. Great team great service!

We were recommended to use Blacks Solicitors to buy a property though our limited company and they were an approved company by our mortgage company, Fleet Mortgages. Samantha Simpson was recommended as a highly professional and diligent conveyancer and was supported by Anne Clarkson.
Samantha made the process effortless and stress free. I was a little concerned at the minimum contact I had from them but this was only due to the fact that they had everything in hand and only contacted me when they couldn't resolve the situation or any the questions themselves. They would reply promptly to calls and emails, something which has been extremely slow with previous solicitors in other firms..
We have used Blacks to buy a second property and they were able to make up any delays caused by the seller to ensure we completed before the mortgage offer expired.
I will be using Blacks again for future purchases as I believe we have found a reliable and trusted firm after kissing many frogs (conveyancers) with other properties we have bought.
A representative from Blacks Solicitors LLP responded to this review on 01 August, 2025:
We're grateful for your review and kind words. It’s rewarding to know our work had a positive impact. If you ever need anything in the future, don't hesitate to get in touch.
