Emma Fairbairn’s team assisted me and family members with three sales and two purchases. They are consistently excellent, friendly, helpful and responsive. I’m very happy to recommend them. We have used Woodford Stauffer (Emma and her team) several times now and have always been very happy with the result. When we mention to agents that we are dealing with Emma/WS it inevitably gets a positive response. Our purchaser thought things were being held up at our side and it proved to be that his solicitor had not turned things round in the way that he had been told. We have recommended previously and will be happy to do so again.

Where do I start? Firstly, I would like to thank Luke Taylor, from the first meeting regarding our family Trust, Luke whilst being extremely professional showed such empathy especially for my Mum during this process. We had seen another solicitor prior to meeting with Luke and his professionalism, empathy and knowledge was completely on a different level to the other solicitors. Thank you Luke from all our family we could not have got this far without you. Secondly, Claire Sallnow has been amazing throughout the process of selling the property. I just wish the other solicitors in the chain were as quick and efficient as Claire and her wider team. It became really apparent during exchange and completion that Claire was just as pleased as we were to finally complete. Her lovely personal well wishes for our family were a really welcome touch. Thank you Claire. Last but by no means least both Darren Bowen and Tina McDonough, although we didn’t have much direct contact when Darren did call me he was extremely professional and understanding. Tina has been great with her communications.

Megan was very quick to respond to our questions and moments of panic, some of which may have seemed silly and it was never too much bother. We really appreciate the time she took to put our minds at ease and for showing patience and kindness. Having had some pretty painful experiences with conveyancers in the past, our faith is now restored. Apart from a couple of delays in the chain which were out of control, this was the smoothest transaction we have had yet. Our matter was dealt with efficiently and with good use of technology to make the process smoother. We won’t be moving for a long time but if we do, we hope to use Woodford Stauffer again.
