Sara William was the Conveyancing Solicitor in the sale of my flat in Clapham. I cannot praise her highly enough for efficiency, knowledge, speed and willingness to work with others. But most of all I commend her kindness and sympathy in this difficult and emotional sale. Thank you, Sara, for making it all possible! Lady Riley

About this branch
Description
As well as a team of full-time lawyers based in our Guildford office we have over 400 consultant lawyers based both locally and across the UK. Each one is supported by a 130-strong central team. It means they are empowered and free to work in a more effective way. When you employ one of them to deliver legal services that is who will deal with your case from start to finish – you won’t be handed off to a junior member of staff. And because we aren’t housing all of our lawyers in one place, our costs are lower, which means you get that expert advice at a more competitive price than you might expect to pay at a traditional firm.
