Found Kamran and TW to provide a clear professional service advising me on my Estate and Inheritance tax situation being a Non UK resident. I have used TW in the past for various legal services and would recommend to others.

Best solicitors used for house purchase

I don’t normally leave reviews but Marcus has his team at Thackray Williams wholeheartedly deserve one.

The speed, efficiency, organisation in how he managed to get us to exchange and complete on a new build in less than 8 weeks is commendable. It literally was from reserving on a new build to moving in less than 8 weeks. We never felt stressed , under pressure in terms of legal paperwork, everything was done efficiently by email and I could go about my day and work. So thorough and made sure you understood. By far the best solicitors we have used

Would not hesitate to recommend and use again.

I was recommended Thackray Williams by a friend, where I meet Charlene Burr, a very nice young lady who gave me good sound advice in dealing with my wife's probate (my wife having died intestate)and bringing to my attention things I would not have through of. Charlene kept me informed at every stage and I believe she did a very good job. I could Recommend this lady to any one looking for legal advice.

Absolutely thrilled with the service we received from Thackery and Williams Solicitors! We approached them for assistance with a small legal document, and Julian was simply fantastic. His professionalism and dedication were evident from the start. Julian went above and beyond to support us, especially given the time-sensitive nature of our situation. He was responsive, knowledgeable, and truly cared about our needs. Thanks to his efforts, everything was handled smoothly and efficiently. I highly recommend Thackery and Williams for anyone in need of legal support! Five stars all the way!

We had the pleasure of working with Marcus Beavis as our solicitor during the process of purchasing our home, and we couldn’t have asked for a more professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated solicitor. From start to finish, Marcus was exceptional, guiding us through every step of the transaction with clarity and expertise. His attention to detail ensured that all the legal documents were thoroughly reviewed, and he left no stone unturned when it came to ensuring that the purchase was in our best interest.

What truly stood out was Marcus’s communication throughout the entire process. He was always quick to respond to my questions, providing thoughtful explanations and making what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. His proactive approach kept everything moving forward efficiently, and I always felt confident that my case was in the best possible hands.

Marcus goes above and beyond, not only in his legal acumen but also in his personable and reassuring manner. Thanks to his dedication, I was able to navigate the complexities of purchasing a home with ease and peace of mind. I highly recommend Marcus and Thackray Williams to anyone seeking a reliable and top-notch solicitor for their property transactions. His expertise, professionalism, and client care are second to none!

Massive thanks to Lauren Osborne and Zoe Hitchcock also, who were fantastic in Marcus’s absence!

Thanks a bunch team at Thackray Williams, we will definitely be using you again!
