Always a Pleasure to Work With — Highly Recommend

5

I have used Warners Solicitors for conveyancing three times now, returning each time due to the excellent service received. Most recently, John McAuliffe assisted by Clare Harvey handled the sale of my property with great professionalism and skill. Their friendly manner and prompt communication — always acknowledging emails and dealing with any query quickly — were particularly appreciated. I have no doubt that the transaction was carried out to the highest standard and would not hesitate to recommend this team.

John was absolutely fantastic throughout the 5 months it took to sell our home. He went above and beyond to secure our best interests and kept us in the loop throughout.

Excellent Professional Service

5

I would highly recommend John and Warners Law in general. I have used them several times for work and John was very professional in my latest need for conveyancing. He had to negotiate some tricky work and his professional approach was great fully received. Lucy saw me through probate and again so professional.

John and Clare were knowledgeable, helpful, responsive and easily contactable. They made the sale of our house extremely smooth. We can’t thank them enough and would not hesitate to recommend them. We are using them again for a house purchase.

Wills, Probate & Residential House Sales

I have used Warners Solicitors over the past few years to prepare my Will, administer probate and act for me on two residential house sales.
All aspects were carried out very professionally, with a personal touch when needed and invoices were as quoted with no surprises.

John Mcauliffe will always be our go to

5

I have known John for over a decade in a professional sense and used him many times before during my estate agency years for conveyancing. He has always been a solicitor I know I’m in good hands with. 3 months ago we decided to sell our first family home and I knew we would be making the best decision by using John. Efficient, personable, trustworthy. 3 things that make the process that little bit easier. He managed everything for us and got us from start to finish in record time. Thank you so much John and team. There is no one else we’d rather use!

I recently sold my late Mother’s property with the help of your wonderful company. John Mcauliffe helped us through the whole process and was one of the most professional and helpful people I have ever had the pleasure to deal with. John kept us well informed and up to date at every turn along with Clare Harvey who was equally as professional. I was also impressed with the very reasonable charge, especially with the excellent quality of service given.
I will certainly be using Warners Solicitors again in the future and will be recommending you
to my family and friends.
Thank you so much for everything.

I have always found my experience of Warners as very professional, and responsive, you feel like you are in safe hands and that the job will get done. I have used John Mcauliffe on two of my house sales and both times his work was exemplary in both speed and communication, I have recommended his services to many friends, all of whom have had the same experience as myself.

As an Estate Agent in Tonbridge I would have no hesitation in recommending John MaAuliffe and his team. John is approachable, friendly and professional. He will always go above and beyond for his clients. I have also trusted John with my own conveyancing and he's never let me down. I would always recommend him to friends and family and am proud to offer his contact details to all my clients knowing he will always do his upmost for them.
