Fast and friendly service

We used Thornton Jones recently to sell our home and purchase our new one and Natalie worked on our case. Due to timings the sale completed first and then the purchase after so we communicated over about 6 months. Jess was always really easy to get hold of, answered questions and actioned different parts of the case quickly and especially completed our purchase quickly. We were really happy it made a stressful time a lot easier, would definitely recommend

Brilliant and highly efficient solicitor

We used Thornton and Jones as our solicitors for buying our first home. They came highly recommended from a work colleague. Sam Kelly was our solicitor and she and Emily Pinchbeck did a brilliant job. They were very efficient. Very easy to communicate, they always responded by email or they called back within the same day. They were so helpful with all the questions we had as first time buyers. And the whole buying process went by smoothly and quickly. I would 100% recommend Thornton and Jones.

Fantastic Service from Start to Finish!

Used Zanna and her assistant Molly for a house sale late 2024 that fell through, she was excellent with her communication from start to finish and helped explain everything to me as i was a first time buyer. Once the other house sale fell through it took my a while to find a new property, i knew for sure i was going to use Zanna again, nothing was too much trouble and nothing was a silly question - not only were the updates and e-mails prompt to be responded to but the Thornton Jones app made it easy to track all my progress of the sale. Although slightly more expensive than other quotes, I would never use anyone else, and the price you pay is for the amazing service you have! I can highly recommend to everyone and anyone!

Highly recommended conveyancing service

I have had the pleasure of having Natalie and Jess handle the conveyancing for two purchases. I can't recommend them highly enough - professional, dedicated and great to deal with - they turned around my recent home buying in under 10 weeks from first enquiry to completion and move-in. When the previous purchase was getting into difficulties from the seller's end of the chain, they fought so my behalf to try and sort things out it was amazing to see. I want to thank both Natalie and Jess for their fantastic service
