Great service and responsive communication.
Conveyancing executive Zoe took great care to fully update me and answer any questions I had about the purchase of a property.
She worked expeditiously and raised great legal queries on my behalf to the selller.

So often all you ever hear is 'my solicitor has taken ages, let me down, not kept me up to date' etc.
Been there also. I then changed to So Legal, in particular Nicola Radford, for property purchase/sales and the experience has been totally different ever since, no complaints at all. Now my only gripes are with the other parties solicitors, but nothing can fix that.

I dealt with Ms. Katie Bacchus and I was pleased with her understanding of the issues and prompt attention to queries as and when they were raised.
Working with a solicitor who can balance speed of action with expertise is important to me, so I will continue to use So Legal.

The So Legal team provided a very professional, and punctual service. They were so helpful in keeping the ball rolling. Jenniver was professional, and always took the time to address all of our questions and concerns.
I highly recommend this firm.

Joe Kennedy and the rest of the team were great when they helped me to buy my first home. They replied to emails promptly, walked me through everything clearly, and kept me in the loop at every step. I felt supported and well informed. Thank you for your help!

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS FIRM -Poor Service, Poor Communication, Fees not transparent, fees charged without giving a revised cost up date! advise not given till its too late and a high bill has been incurred - which could of been avoided if the advice that i paid for at the start was actually given at the start and not when you are a day away of going to court. totally disgusted by the way my case was handled. totally in debt thanks to this firm !! I was part of a recent transaction and this is most definitely a legit review which I am entitled to give!

A fantastic service from Joe Kennedy in SO Legal's Eastbourne office, handling our property sale and purchase. Everything went super smoothly, and we really appreciated Joe's calm and professional manner throughout. Recommended.

Had been dealing with Chloe Loft at So Legal, and service from start to finish was fantastic. Attentive & professional, thank you for your help.

Nicola and Stephanie (Hastings branch) provided an impeccable service from start to finish. Communication and response time was outstanding, and I would highly recommend them to anyone. If you're looking for a speedy, diligent, and professional service, these are your people. I've used them before, and I'd use them again!

They say buying a house is one of the most stressful things you will experience, I can say this is true with previous experiences, but not this time,
I was fortunate enough to have Georgia Donoghue taking care of everything from start to finish , to be honest 10 out of 10 or 5 stars doesn’t seem to do her credit,, I was constantly updated, I never chased for anything and if the other solicitors were are diligent as Georgia I’m sure that this would of gone quicker, Georgia is polite, and she keeps her word,this to me is everything , if she says something then she follows this through, she is a credit to her company, this home I’ve just bought is my forever home and the only way I’ll buy again is if I win the lottery, and if I’m lucky enough to win this I will certainly use So Legsl again and I will only use Georgia

Jessica was very helpful and supportive while remortgaging my house and removing an ex-partner. Email responses were always timely and no question was too small to answer. Thanks so much for your help!

A massive thank you to all the team at So Legal. They knew I had a deadline to meet and they pulled out all the stops to meet it, and they did.

Jessica really supported me during my first time purchase, explaining things in detail and always keeping me in the loop. Very professional service and always timely responses. Highly recommend!

Sarah from SO Legal Brighton was awesome again, we used her initially for the sale of our flat, and then again for our purchase of our new home, it was a no brainer to utilise her services again! Friendly and approachable, made things easy to understand, kept us well informed about the process and happenings along the chain of sale. Everything went very smoothly, couldn't have asked for more! Thanks!

SO Legal handled the sale of my flat. Very professional and always helpful. Highly recommended.

We had Chloe Loft as our solicitor and I have to say, she has been absolutely amazing in every way, amazing communication and really friendly and super efficient. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and better person to handle our first time house buying experience.

Reply from SO Legal Limited
Nicole handled the conveyancing for our new home professionally, and always took the time to address all of our concerns. As a first time buyer, I was unsure of many of the processes and tasks, but Nicole always took the time to go through everything in great detail. Nicole also addressed things promptly and I felt she had everything looked after. Thank you very much for everything you have done!

Dylan handled the Contract for the Purchase of another Business on our behalf. All advice and changes to the drafts managed professionally and very happy with the final version.
Would definitely use him again for future purchases and potentially other legal sides of our Business.

The purchase of my property took 7 months, it was my dream home in a quaint town by the sea. It took so long because the selling side could not fulfil their requirements appropriately.
However, the So Legal team provided the professional, timely service I needed and kept the ball moving. I also believe they understood my anxiety and empathised with what I was going through. Nothing was too much or too small for them to respond to my many concerns
They got the job done, brilliantly!
