Zach's attention to detail on what was a relatively small sale was very thorough. I have been very happy with the professional service I received from Trethowans. Their charges were also very reasonable, This is the second time I have been advised by them and would be pleased to recommend them.

Very efficient
Very efficient. A very pleasant solicitor who responded very quickly to my questions.
Only reason not given a 5*rating was the cost- very expensive for adding a tiny alteration to my Will when someone else I knew had done it far far less

Residential conveyancing - would recommend
We were allocated Bernitta Russell to take care of our conveyancing for the sale of our home and purchase of a new property. Bernitta was professional but friendly throughout, responded promptly to enquiries and gave realistic advice throughout all stages of our transaction. When Bernitta was not available, she properly briefed her colleague who looked after our file while she was away and I was equally impressed with her. The support staff at Trethowans are also exceptional. I hope that we won't need the services of a residential conveyancer again in the near future! But I have already recommended Bernitta to a friend. Thank you!

Perfect service!
I live abroad and thehouse sale these guys were supporting took nearly a year to complete, due to other parts of the chain being so terrible, these guys handled all of the delays, communicated well, rolled with the twists and turns unphased and supportive the whole way through.

Professional, diligent, and efficient
Professional, diligent, and efficient. I’ve used Trethowans LLP, with Denise Owen in particular handling my purchase, and the entire process from instruction through to exchange of contracts was handled smoothly and professionally. It was my first house purchase, and I felt supported the whole time. I'd definitely go back to them.

I was involved over a case of Medical Negligence. I did have a win which was excellent news. Felt it went on too long. And in the end just accepted what I was offered as I didn't want to go through any more appointments and being told what to do.
