Super efficient assistance with the administration of an Estate

Emma Lockwood took over handling the affairs of a close relative who sadly died last summer. As the sole executor I much welcomed the friendly and efficient assistance and advice which she gave me. We got probate within six months and had everything wrapped up within a year, coming well below her initial estimate of fees into the bargain. A pleasure to work with her and I look forward to working with her again some day.

Truly Superb

This was our first experience of using Sampson Coward & we are extremely grateful we did, they were a pleasure to deal with.
Maxine Iremonger acted on our behalf for our conveyancing. What a professional, diligent & friendly solicitor she is.
Maxine replied promptly to emails, answered all questions, was fast, efficient & precise in all the legal proceedings. Every I was dotted & every T crossed.

Maxine was on holiday at the Easter period & as our sale had not yet completed due to complications with the buyers solicitor, she efficiently handed over the reigns to Carol Bedford to continue in her absence. Carol was as diligent, professional & as friendly as Maxine & between the two of them they were able to bring our sale to a successful completion.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Maxine & Carol they are both superb & we will without a shadow of doubt be using them again.

David provided excellent and timely advice throughout the process and helped negotiate a significantly larger financial settlement than I had originally been offered by my employer.

Communications from David and his secretary Karen were always clear and prompt.

I would highly recommend them.

Excellent Service From Jane

Jane handled the conveyancing for both the sale of my property and the purchase of my new home, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. From start to finish, she was approachable, highly efficient, and incredibly detail-oriented, ensuring everything progressed smoothly.

She communicated clearly, kept me informed throughout the process, and proactively addressed any issues that arose. Her professionalism and expertise made what can often be a stressful experience remarkably straightforward.

I would highly recommend Jane to anyone looking for a reliable, thorough, and client-focused solicitor for property transactions.

Fantastic, efficient and 5* experience.

Sampson Coward, specifically Abigail Wort made this very stressful life choice - so much easier & pleasant.
It was efficient, professional and executed out exchange & completion quickly & with grace.
I couldn't recommend them enough, and wouldn't hesitate to use them in the future.

5* work.

Caroline Parsons has acted for me since 2002 - she is quick, accurate and always returns calls/emails. I recommend her to everyone who needs a conveyancer as I know she will do a great job for them. Cannot rate Caroline highly enough :)

My partner and I instructed Vicky Langdown of Sampson Coward to act on our purchase. Vicky and her colleagues were incredible throughout the buying process, and offer both professional and sound advice. In Vicky's absence, Sara was equally fantastic at keeping things moving and chasing the vendors solicitors until the moment we exchanged. I would not hesitate to recommend the services of Sampson Coward to anyone - an absolutely first class service from start to finish.

As a first time buyer Natalie really helped me along the process keeping me informed. She was good at chasing the chain and kept me updated. We had a target completion date right from the word go and she managed to get things past the line right on track.

The process of buying a home was made all the more cumbersome and stressful by using this company. The information I received regarding the purchase of the property, was only received through the estate agents and the vender’s solicitors. On 3 separate occasions I was told the report had been prepared and sent to me and it hadn’t been. I had to wait an extra 2 weeks solely because they had forgotten to order the funds. The whole process lacked organisation and was haphazard. The receptionist gave me more information and was more approachable than the solicitor representing the purchase with email replies received weeks later. In all sincerity, I am unable to recommend this company
