Joe was recommended to us through Oakfield estate agent when we began purchasing our property in Bexhill on Sea.
From the outset, Joe was tenacious (chased-down every matter thoroughly), professional (knowledgeable), responsive (always got back to us by phone or email without delay - thus minimizing stress levels - for us!) and even went out of his way - he actually visited us - to collect important documents in order for contracts to be exchanged in time!
We are delighted with Joe's exemplary service on our behalf, grateful to him and would not hesitate to recommend him @ SO Legal Ltd to any

I’ve used so legal for over 5 years, for business and private matters- most recently for the sale of my business. On every instance I have found them to be professional, helpful, time conscious and expert in their field. Ilya was particularly exceptional at assisting me with the business sale, informative and keen to keep on budget. Without hesitation I would recommend So legal.

Absolutely fantastic service from a brilliant team. Sam and Joe went above and beyond to ensure my purchase went ahead without too many delays. Every time I called Sam answered and dealt with every query quickly. Great communication and attention to detail.
If you want a smooth and stress free sale/purchase use these guys. 10/10

I have to say a big thank you to Adam Creasey - he has been both professional and sensitive when dealing with my business. What should have been a simple matter, causing me stress, was turned into a frustrating one by my landlord. Adam was very patient with me and managed to sort the problem no thanks to the incompetence from the other side.
I would definitely recommend Adam’s services without hesitation!

We used SO Legal to sell our mother's flat as she has moved into a care home. Joe Kennedy could not have done more to make the whole process easy. He always responded quickly to every question we had and was very patient when needing to explain things. An extremely capable and pleasant person to deal with and we would have no hesitation in recommending him and the company to anyone needing a solicitor.

Joe Kennedy managed our conveyancing when we sold our home in the UK. Having emigrated to Australia and trying to buy a home there, it was a particularly stressful time for us. Joe was absolutely amazing! He kept us informed every step of the way and chased relentlessly to expedite the process from start to finish. We were really happy with the service from SO Legal and Joe was highly professional and super efficient. Thanks so much Joe!
