Massive thank you to Blacks Solicitors LLP

I would like to say a massive thank you to my solicitors at Blacks Solicitors LLP. Special thanks to Rebecca Pickles and Ella Fozard, who have been absolutely top-notch.
We have used their service several times now for both mortgage and re-mortgage matters, and if I ever need legal advice in the future, I wouldn’t go anywhere else. They have been exceptional throughout every stage of the process.

They are highly professional, extremely knowledgeable, and very responsive, with outstanding attention to detail. They supported us through every issue that arose and handled everything efficiently and proactively. We never had to chase anything, they progressed our case quickly, kept us well informed, and always made sure everything was handled in the best interest of the client.

A huge thank you to the entire team, and especially to Rebecca Pickles, who truly goes above and beyond. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

It was our second time working with Bilal. Fantastic services.

This was our second time working with Bilal on a remortgage. He was always available for a quick chat over the phone, to discuss any concerns I had, and acted professionally and promptly to resolve any problems. We would definitely be looking to work with Blacks Solicitors again in the near future, especially with Bilal.

Highly recommend Sharon Jennings. Best conveyancing solicitor I have ever had.

I cannot recommend Sharon Jennings at Blacks Solicitors highly enough for her exceptional work on my recent property sale. From the very beginning she displayed a deep level of expertise and provided practical, no nonsense advice. She moved swiftly through the process often completing our milestones faster than expected. Always responded to my queries within the same day and in most cases within an hour and always in a very thorough and professional manner. All the conveyancing elements were professionally and thoroughly handled. Thanks to her we were the first within the chain to exchange. She has been the best conveyancing solicitor I have ever dealt with. I will be definitely going back to her when I next have a property sale or purchase.

Hannah Harding excellent service

Excellent communication and an all round great experience.

Have dealt with numerous solicitors in the past, Hannah Harding at Blacks went above and beyond to ensure a client did not go onto the SVR which would have been extremely costly.

Very speedy and professional service

Very speedy and professional service. Blacks help me complete a BTL Ltd co refinance, I had a very short timeframe to complete the transaction.

Thanks to the amazing team at Blacks, we managed to complete under 3 weeks (with 5 days of delays caused due to me).

There was no back and fourth requesting documents, the process and required documents was stated clearly at the start.

I would high recommend using Blacks for your conveyancing, Ross and his team are amazing.
