Feedback for Katie Handoll from a client for a recent property transaction

“The last year has been hell, I am sure you get that a lot from clients. Anxiety has become my new nemesis and today is the first day in a very long time that I have not experienced it. I just want to say a massive thank you to you Adrian and Seb, the work you have both done over the last few months has been so greatly appreciated and I honestly can’t express that enough. The work you have both carried out has been thorough and concise, I was kept up to date with the claimants actions and couldn’t have asked for more. Having Seb there yesterday was a god send too, I know it was a sort of training exercise but to me It meant the world to have a familiar face and someone I could turn to if I needed things clarifying and I was put at ease throughout the day.”

It is safe to say I will be using Chris again when I move next time.”

Thank you Katie and SO Legal.”

A client commenting on Eleanor Schamroth for a residential sale and purchase, November 2018

 

“Having worked within the property industry for several years I have come across so many conveyancers, many of which will simply treat you as a number rather than a client and will never strive to exceed a client’s expectations. However, Christopher Hoadley gives a warm, friendly and helpful impression from the start. 
Earlier this year I purchased a leasehold apartment, the type I rightly assumed a good local solicitor would be well versed with. Chris helped make the acquisition as smooth as possible, he is prompt and efficient and endeavours to always be at the other end of the phone for any queries no matter how big or small.”

Sam Beale commenting on Chris Hoadley’s work re: a Leasehold Apartment Purchase, November 2018

They were extremely efficient and any queries we had were acted on promptly which helped to make our sale as stress free as possible which was far more than our buyers solicitors did! I would highly recommend this company. Thank you both so much.”

We really appreciate their support and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!”

Paul Callaway, Homes Partnership Estate Agents for Laura Stevens, Uckfield Office, September 2018

Like myself, Seema and Kausiha don’t seem to have a clock-off time and while I don’t expect responses to emails that I send late in the evening, I have certainly received many. SO Legal have a refreshing approach and are always keen to be moving things forward. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Seema and Kausiha. I have no hesitation in recommending their excellent services.”

SO Legal acted for first time buyers in a freehold purchase.

 

SO Legal acted in the purchase and new lease to our client of a bistro coffee shop in a complicated transaction where the Landlord and Seller wanted to deal with matters themselves. Our legal advisers had to draft and co-ordinate all matters to ensure an efficient and smooth transition.

Thank you so much for what you have done for me over the last few months. You were so professional throughout and dealt with all my queries so quickly and even at the weekend. My case wasn’t so straight forward as you had to deal with a landlord and a seller who both didn’t have any representatives. You stuck to your words and kept my costs under control. If you are buying a commercial business please choose this company as they are professional, courteous and they will look after you throughout the process.

SO Legal acted for local couple in the sale of their buy to let flat working to tight timescales to meet the Stamp Duty Land Tax changes

I had dealt with current partners of SO Legal while in their previous roles, due to the excellent service I’d received previously I was keen to work with them again. This particular transaction was already complex given the Managing Agent, Tenant Occupied and multiple freeholder nature of the sale, further complicated by the deadline caused by recent legislation regarding the stamp duty threshold.  Aware of these issues SO Legal acted promptly and delivered a professional service with key advice throughout. Ultimately the transaction was completed comfortably in advance of deadline set by the purchaser and all involved parties were delighted with the outcome. I would have no hesitation in recommending SO Legal
