Power of Attorney

I needed power of attorney for a solicitor to sign on my behalf to sell my property abroad. This is the second time I have used Emsleys and Will the Notary was very informative and helpful. The documents were ready in a very short time and sent to solicitors in Canaries. Thank-you

John Hutchings has been excellent in dealing with my accident claim. My previous solicitors, appointed by the insurance company, were slow, unresponsive and uninterested, suggesting I settle on a “knock for knock “ basis, when a van ran into the back of me and wrote my car off. John fought my corner and with Robert Smith, the barrister, started proceedings and within a short time the other side caved in and I got a good settlement. John was so responsive and helpful. A great service.

Easy

Had a very positive experience with Emsleys Solicitors. From the start of my accident at work claim, to the end, the process has been easy and caused no stress. Communication was good, anything I need to provide or do was explained and they ended up securing me with a better settlement than I thought. I would highly recommend.

Helpful team at Emsleys Solicitors…

Adam and his team were responsive to queries through out the whole sale process. His help was especially appreciated when dealing with some specific buyer queries when we were away in Canada, dealing with time zone differences.

A JOB WELL DONE

Our sale of our property went really well, took a little longer than l thought it would but there were circumstances which didn't help with our purchase of a property falling through, which was in no way the fault of Emsleys. All the Staff involved did a great friendly service and kept in contact on a regular basis. Many Thanks to all concerned.

Moving on

I chose Emsleys to deal with the sale and purchase of my properties and it proved to be such a good choice.

Emma, Julie and the reception staff were excellent in helping every step of the way which saved any stress.
They were friendly and very patient with nothing being too much trouble.
The efficiency of the team made the whole process run very smoothly

Every phone call and query was promptly dealt with.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Emsleys.

I needed a Power of Attorney document…

I needed a Power of Attorney document notarised quickly for the sale of my apartment in the Canary Islands. I called Emsleys and they gave the information I needed to contact their in-house notary, who responded the same day, in a professional and friendly way. We fixed an appointment quickly, I was greeted in a very nice way by the staff and the notary, Will, was very efficient and helpful. He sent my document off to get legalised, saving me a headache, and sent a copy of the legalised document and DHL tracker to my lawyers in Spain. I will be returning to make a new will. Can't recommend them enough. Thank you, Emsleys. Great experience from A to Z.
