Thorntons Solicitors Reviews 

We can't thank Emma at Thorntons enough for the exceptional service she provided during our house purchase. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make what can often be a stressful process feel seamless and straightforward.

Emma was always happy to answer our many questions, no matter how small, and took the time to explain things clearly so we always understood what was happening and why. Her responsiveness and attention to detail gave us real peace of mind throughout the entire process.

We would wholeheartedly recommend Emma and the team at Thornton's to anyone looking for a solicitor for their house purchase. Thank you, Emma, for helping us get the keys to our new home!

Thorntons were recommended to us by our Estate Agent to deal with the sale of our house. We couldn't have had a better company represent us. Mary Beaton Trainee Conveyancing Paralegal dealt with our sale very fast and professionally the problems that cropped up along the way were always sorted out very quickly by Mary she clearly knows her stuff. Would definitely recommend this company as their fees were also very reasonable.

Excellent service from Susan and the team at Thorntons. I would recommend to anyone looking for their services.

I have had the pleasure of working with Graham Taylor and the team at Thorntons Solicitors on a number of different legal matters, and the service has always been outstanding.

Graham is approachable, knowledgeable, and takes the time to explain matters clearly, providing practical advice and guidance every step of the way. What I particularly value is the professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for clients.

Legal matters can often feel daunting, but having a trusted advisor like Graham and the wider Thorntons team provides real peace of mind. Their expertise, attention to detail, and client-focused approach have consistently impressed me.

I would highly recommend Graham Taylor and Thorntons Solicitors to anyone seeking reliable, professional, and high-quality legal support.

Thank you for the excellent service you continue to provide.

We had Gillian S has our solicitor at Thorntons Arbroath and could not fault her in any way! Every email was replied to within 10minutes. Always a phone call away if needed which was needed and was sorted right away! Had a great experience overall which was all done in a quick manner with very professional attitude.

House buying or selling is always stressful. But, if you use a professional, attentive and empathetic team as Thorntons has, then the concerns are greatly reduced. Grateful thanks for the experience. knowledge and customer service of Angela, Lisa, Jean and the others and for the calm support and logical advice through to the conclusion of sale. No hesitation whatsoever in saying they are highly recommended.

I had a great experience with Thorntons Solicitors. Katherine dealt with the sale of a property on my behalf .She was on the ball, kept me up to date throughout and left me with very little to do! I'd thoroughly recommend Thorntons Solicitors for any conveyancing requirements.

Having been left as executor to a very difficult estate, I appointed Thorntons to act on my behalf. They were able to unravel all of the difficulties, keeping me informed at every stage. Their advice was always sound, their communication was always timely, and they never failed to meet a deadline.
Throughout the process, I felt well supported and well advised.
I would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

My experience of selling and buying a house with Thorntons acting for me was excellent. I was guided by different members of staff appropriate to the stage of the process I was at and all were efficient, pleasant and knowledgeable.

Fantastic service from start to finish. The team kept me regularly updated throughout the process, provided excellent advice, and made the whole experience feel very personal and stress-free.

A special thank you to Susan, Lisa, and Audrey, who were all fantastic, professional, friendly, and always willing to help. Their communication and support were outstanding, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this estate agent to others.

David Mathieson was our Solicitor in Thorntons for the purchase of land, securing a mortgage, purchase of a industrial Unit and selling properties. He has, and continues to be, very responsive to our emails and telephone calls and gets the necessary paperwork sorted very fast and efficiently. He has kept us well informed and explained everything in a manner that we understand, taking us through every step of the legalise patiently and considerately. David was recommended to us via a friend and I would have no hesitation recommending him to others going forward.

Working with Katherine has been genuinely easy and reassuring. She keeps things moving without ever making it feel stressful, and she’s great at breaking things down in a way that actually makes sense. Any time something changed, whether it was paperwork, timelines, or the situation with my mum’s flat, she kept me updated straight away and made sure I knew what my options were.What I’ve appreciated most is that she never treated anything like a hassle. She’s calm, straightforward, and genuinely thoughtful, and it always felt like she actually cared about getting things right rather than just ticking boxes.Overall, Katherine and the team, made a process that could’ve been a headache feel much more manageable, and I’ve really valued how supportive and down‑to‑earth they have all been throughout.

Transactions completed by a hugely competent and helpful practitioner Sharon. All very straightforward.

I used Thorntons Solicitors for property purchase. The team was professional with precise instructions on preparing materials and progressing. The experience was overall smooth.

We had a brilliant experience with Steven Drake. He handled the sale of our old house in England along with the purchase of our new house in Scotland. From start to finish, he was always quick to respond; his emails were always really clear to understand, too. Having the same solicitor for both the English sale and the Scottish purchase made the whole process so smooth and efficient. Not many solicitors are dual-qualified to practise in both the English and Scottish legal systems, and Steven very much deserves his spot at the top of the Google search results!

Grant and Susan of Thornton's made the experience of selling our flat easy and quick. The process was smooth and mostly completed online with minimum contact needed. I cannot fault the service they provide.
