This is the second time that I have dealt with Parvinder, she was so good on my first move, I requested her on my second. Communication is clear and she was very responsive to e-mails and my calls. I would not hesitate to recommend. Preesha was also very helpful and responsive! Thank you both!

I was kept updated and informed throughout the process. The service was friendly and efficient. I would definitely recommend Askews Legal LLP.

I have used Askews for two recent attempted property purchases. Whilst both did not complete for different reasons, the team at Askews have been incredible with their diligence and dedication that have prevented me from making sub-optimal decisions by revealing significant problems with both properties that could have been expensive mistakes. They truly do put there clients first and act in your best interest. Parvinder was an exceptional solicitor and I could not recommend her enough. Lauren the conveyancing executive was extremely responsive, thorough and helpful at all stages she was involved. In my first purchase attempt the trainee solicitor Dean was outstanding and we greatly appreciated having him on our side.Overall whilst the outcomes were not ideal it said a lot about the company and their people that I do not look back at this experience negatively and would definitely use them in the future when I find the right property.

I cannot recommend highly enough the support and service we received from Lauren D'Arcy. Lauren is polite, competent and an asset to Askews Legal. We were kept informed at all times by Lauren and felt in good hands.The only negative which is a big negative is the company Askews use to take phone calls, it appears to be out sourced. The people I spoke to were rude, curt and definitely not representative of the service we received from Lauren.Ditch the company Askews they are not good for your business.
