I used Sumera Ehsan for my Employment settlement agreement . I found her very helpful and professional and talked me through the whole process step by step and would highly recommend her to anyone.

My partner and I have just bought our first house and used Askews as our conveyancers and we could not recommend them highly enough. Our solicitor was Chanel and she was brilliant, so professional and approachable, efficient and organised. We were never waiting on her for anything, she was so proactive. She was patient with us as we had not bought a house before, taking the time to explain the process and providing reassurance when needed. Everything you could possibly want in a solicitor. Thank you so much Chanel!

Update: I have just used Askews again, I would still recommend. I worked with Jane Ball again, and found them to provide a professional and efficient service. When things needed doing, Jane was always there to see out the tasks, working towards completion. I had used Askews about ten years ago for the sale and purchase of properties. They were so efficient, I went back to them for the sale of my mums house. I first of all worked with Carly and Nisheet, both very responsive to queries. I then worked with Jane and Stephen, towards completion of the sale. They were again efficient and got things done when they needed to be. I am keen to stay on top of things myself and they did not disappoint. As I was more than happy with the service, I used Jane and Stephen for the purchase of my house later in the year.
