Fantastic service

Exchanged today on the purchase of my new home. Sweeney Miller were recommended to me by my mortgage advisor and have been fantastic throughout. Stephanie Rutherford has been brilliant with communication, prompt with replies and has ensured everything is done as quickly as possible, despite the sale being delayed after having to go to probate.

I will 100% use Sweeney Miller again in future if I decide to move.

Would Highly Recommend

I recently had the opportunity to purchase my first home through the Right to Buy scheme with Sweeney Miller. As a first-time buyer, I chose Sweeney Miller as my solicitor, and I am pleased to share that their professionalism throughout the process was apparent from start to finish. The customer service and contact team were consistently attentive, promptly answered calls, and effectively redirected inquiries when necessary. All staff members I interacted with demonstrated a high level of professionalism, and Mitchell Miller provided exceptional support, even when facing tight deadlines, by offering regular updates. I would gladly recommend Sweeney Miller to anyone seeking a reliable and capable solicitor.
