Children matter
I had the pleasure of working with Meril, and I cannot speak highly enough of her. From the very beginning, she demonstrated the highest level of professionalism and dedication. Meril is incredibly knowledgeable in her field, always well-prepared, and confident in her guidance, which instantly put me at ease.
What truly sets her apart is how genuinely understanding and caring she is. She takes the time to listen, understand your needs, and respond with compassion and clarity. It’s rare to find someone who blends expertise with such warmth and empathy.
Meril’s commitment goes above and beyond—she doesn't just do her job, she truly invests in the people she helps. I’m deeply grateful for her support and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking a trustworthy and exceptional professional. I cannot thank her enough for saving my life!

Was extremely impressed with the efficient and professional service provided by our solicitor, Kathryn Archer. She dealt with the sale of my deceased parent’s home and ensured that the whole process was stress free from beginning to end. Thank you Kathryn.

Another positive experience with Farnfields Solicitors Warminster
This is the second time I have hired Farnfields to act for me on the sale of a leasehold retirement apartment. Not the easiest of missions.
Delighted to reach a happy conclusion. Farnfields approach, particularly Sarah Clarke and Callum Clark in the Conveyancing Department only highlight the ineptitude of other solicitors in the process. Grateful thanks. AND all of the below descriptions!
Fiona Hamer worked on the whole of my mother's estate, prior to her retirement. She was second to none. Ann Arnold will now conclude the administration of the Estate.

Excellent and Efficient Service
We recently used Farnfield’s conveyancing service and can wholeheartedly recommend them. Our case was handled by Kathryn Archer who was extremely professional, efficient and kept us updated throughout the whole process. Unlike some solicitors I’ve worked with, Kathryn was very proactive in progressing our case and I’d certainly use her services again in the future.

I have known Farnfields for many years, having worked in the same town. I have also used the film for other conveyances and legal work. My present move has been conducted in a most professional manner and, above all, courtesy and friendliness.

Excellent conveyancing service
I have recently exchanged on a property and am very grateful for the excellent service that Emily Walker and Felicity Taylor gave me. There was a very tight target deadline to meet, and Emily was focussed, diligent and responsive throughout the process. When we met for the signing, she gave me thorough, clear answers to all my last-minute questions with patience and warmth. Thank you.

Excellent speedy conveyancing experience
I had a FTB stamp duty deadline which was extremely tight and Matthew and Dawn helped me reach it in time without a hitch. It was clear advice and service at a fair and reasonable price point.

Fantastic service from Farnfields.
Was referred to them by someone else moving homes and I couldn’t recommend them more myself.
We moved house in around 9 weeks with the help of this firm and Kathryn in particular.
Always a reliable response and everyone I spoke to at the firm was able to help in some way as we went through the moving process.

I recently completed the purchase of my new home and had the pleasure of working with Sarah and Callum at Farnfields. I can honestly say their support made a stressful process so much more manageable — especially as we were dealing with a particularly difficult and uncooperative seller’s solicitor.
Throughout the transaction, Sarah and Callum were incredibly professional, responsive, and proactive. They went above and beyond to chase misleading or unclear information provided by the other side, ensuring everything was accurate and in my best interest before proceeding. Their clear communication and calm handling of each challenge gave me real peace of mind.
Thanks to their persistence and diligence, I’m now happily settled in my new home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Farnfields, especially Sarah and Callum, to anyone needing trustworthy and hardworking conveyancing solicitors.
Thank you both again for all your efforts!
