Established in 1989 by Tom Hobson and Stan Latham, we have been helping people move in Eastbourne, the surrounding areas and further afield for 25 years. Although the firm has grown, we have not forgotten that it is the personal, friendly and approachable service we offer which is valued by our clients.
Specialist Property Lawyers Hobson & Latham have been specialising in Conveyancing transactions since 1989. We offer a personal, professional and efficient service with competitive fees. Moving home is one of the most important decisions you are likely to make and at times the most stressful. We understand this and aim to deal with all legal aspects of your transaction to ensure a fast, accurate and cost efficient service.
It is important for you to make a Will whether or not you consider you have many possessions or assets. Having a Will makes things easier for your nearest and dearest in the event of your death and we can assist in drafting a Will to ensure your wishes are met.

Many people these days are worried that a time may come when they are unable to look after their own day to day affairs and whilst a Will covers the Estate in the event of death, many clients these days are pre-empting their inability to act by preparing Lasting Powers of Attorney during their "lucid" years.This would enable a person of your choice to act for you in your best interests should you become incapable.

Can't recommend Hobson and Latham highly enough. They took us on halfway through the process and got caught up within a week. They even managed to get us completed before Christmas so from the date of making our offer to completion it was exactly 11 weeks including the time with the first solicitor that we moved from. Steve Hunt and Julie Simpson were always on the other end of the phone and were always honest throughout the entire process. Highly recommend

I hesitated to leave negative review in the hope that this firm will "eventually" respond to our request for obtaining the official documents relating to the property purchase, but I was wrong, they just don't bother. I fully concur with all the previous negative reviews and examples by my own experience. I wish I took their negative reviews on board before I went for this firm. Not sending us the conveyancing documents (including title deed and indemnity insurance came with the house) nor explaining why for months and now it is over a year. They don't even respond to my polite gentle complaint

I would like to say a big thank you to Ms Claire Davis & Jan Sweetman and the rest of the team who handled the purchase of my flat in Caroline Way in Marina Village Eastbourne. They are true professional in the sense of the word. They do offer an insurance policy if the sale falls through which I took out twice and saved me a fortune in admin cost as I had to pull out twice from two sales due to issues with the lease. Buying a property is not something you do a lot in your life time but I am glad I got the right people to handle mine.

Hobson & Latham have been amazing with our house sale and purchase. They are so professional, supportive and helpful, always responding to calls and emails really quickly. They made sure everything went through before our deadline and just really impressed us! Would recommend them to anyone.

We used Hobson & Latham for conveyancing of our house buying. The job was done professionally and in a timely manner. The latter was especially important given the approaching end of the reduction in stamp duty tax.
I cannot complain about anything, they actually exceeded my expectations.

Mr Steve Hunts has helped us twice with the purchase and sale of our properties. He also helped my mother in law with purchase of her property.
The service we received has been extremely professional and responsive.
We would like to thank Mr Hunt and his PA Julie for their assistance . We will use their services again in the future and we will recommend them highly.

Steve Hunt and Julie Simpson have just attended to our sale and purchase and we have no hesitations in recommending this team. In particular, the calmness shared along with the sage advice was so helpful to us when we were perhaps feeling a little challenged by our purchase.
The service and integrity from both did not falter - despite the demands and extra hours they were clearly working during the pandemic and stamp duty holiday. They know their stuff and persisted to challenge up the chain on our behalf to ensure a potential hiccup was eliminated.
Thank you both.

A huge thank you to Steve, Julie and Charlotte for all your work in helping us to complete our house move yesterday! We have been so impressed with your professionalism and great communication from start to finish. Would have no hesitation in recommending you to friends and family.

We recently used Hobson & Latham for the purchase of our first home, and they were fantastic. They guided us through a rather complex and unknown process with patience and expertise. Steve & Julie kept us updated regularly and did their utmost to ensure that the purchase went as smoothly as possible. I would highly recommend using H&L and we will definitely be using them for any future work.
