Vicky was great
Vicky herself. She was contactable, understanding, efficient and pleasant. Helped to sort access to another partner, when speed was of the essence, and he had been uncontactable to me.

First time buyer
This review is for a different branch.
As a first time buyer, I was a bit unsure which conveyancer to go for at first but thankfully, I was recommended Harrowells by a work colleague who had dealt with them previously. My case was assigned to Vicky Richardson, an exceptional conveyancer - Vicky was reliable, timely, friendly, and always responding to my emails promptly, keeping me updated. Vicky truly knows her trade and if you are looking for a genuinely good conveyancer to see your property transaction through, I honestly could not think of a better person to do the job.
A representative from Harrowells Limited responded to this review on 13 May, 2025:
House purchase can be daunting - particularly for a first time buyer. We are so pleased that you felt Vicky successfully guided you through the conveyancing maze and kept you updated along the way!

Ruth is absolutely amazing, has gone through everything with a fine tooth comb. My questions were answered patiently and professionally. Additionally, Kirsty is very efficient getting me sorted, sending me much needed reminders. She has also accommodated a last minute change which I appreciated. I would certainly use them again in future. Very satisfied overall.

I am very grateful to Harrowells, especially so Mr Black, he was professional, honest, knowledgeable and very reliable. He helped me with a home sale, and the results were better than I hoped, because of the effort he put in. I am very happy with the cost, and the service I received from this company. I entirely recommend them, have trust in knowing they will do the best they can for their clients. Many thanks.
