Engaged solicitors on 17/4/25 as recommended by Bradleys estate agents who sold my house. Completed on 25/7/25. Very quick service with sending out paperwork throughout. Was kept up to date at all times with the sale of my house by email and post.
Would recommend this firm.

Coode's helped us to purchase our first Home and they made it a pain free simple process, Teresa was our solicitor and we would highly recommend her and the team to anyone requiring a Solicitor in the future. They kept good communication with both us, the Estate agent and sellers solicitor. Will definitely use them for anything required in the future!

Teresa and her team were my conveyancers to sell my house and buy my new house, it was a very long process as it was partly through COVID and I took out a lifetime morgage. dispite some quiet spells of not knowing what was happening and not getting some communication that was expected at times when I'd heard nothing for a while. I understood it was a difficult time but overall I was very pleased with the service
very lovely to deal with if u needed to speak to them over the phone instead of email as I sometimes did as I was very stressed they were always helpful and reassuring to me. Teresa was a great solicitor and I want to say thanku To her and the rest of the team. I would definitely use again.
Thanku jane haley

I initially went into the Truro office where I was taken into a private room, they made notes of my case and put me in touch with the appropriate solicitor. This first point of customer service was very different and more professional than any introduction I had with other law firms. I went for a consultation with Ben in Penzance, he was honest and gave clear guidance and options moving forward. It was refreshing not to feel forced into taking the legal route as a primary action for the benefit of the case. I left feeling confident that if I exhaust the other options that I have strong legal representation to turn to. Highly recommended. Thank you.
