Recently used Askews to sell my late my mum's property. During the sale clear communication and care was provided by Paul Hewerdine. I would highly recommend Askews.

Lianne helped me from start to finish with my employment settlement agreement and made the whole process feel straightforward and stress-free. She was incredibly supportive, efficient, and took the time to clearly explain everything to me so I always knew where I stood. Everything was completed within a very short timeframe, which I really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Askews again. Thank you, Lianne.

I found Md Farooq to be extremely competent, professional, and empathetic throughout my experience. His strong connections with local barristers are exceptional and clearly enhance the quality of his service. He combines excellent technical expertise with a genuine personal touch and impressive resourcefulness, which is a rare combination. I fully endorse his services and highly recommend him.

Askews made buying my first house a lot less stressful than I thought it would be. Everything was handled quickly and I was only involved when needed. If you are local to Coventry then it is very reassuring and convenient to be able to visit face to face as well.
