I have only just realised I didn't leave a review after a house move that took place in April last year. The fact still stands that we were incredibly happy with the service provided by Marcus Beavis and his team. They were responsive to all our questions and resolved all concerns in a timely manner. We went from our buyers viewing to us moving in nine weeks and this is largely down to the diligent and timely work performed by the team.
I am hoping we don't need to move again any time soon but, if we did, I would have no concerns with using Thackray Williams again.

We had a terrible experience with them. Interestingly, we were dealing with one of the partners so we thought we were in good hands but, our very simple/straightforward house purchase (not our first house purchase) was made so difficult by them. I can see some positive reviews here, which I was surprised by and maybe ours was an isolated incident; either way, I felt it's only fair we shared our experience, so people can make an informed decision. Despite paying upfront, there was very little communication, shoddy responses to questions asked via email, no acknowledgement of various stages of the

The calm, rational explanations and solid professional legal advice provided by my solicitor, Faye Shortall, made a big difference to me at what was a very difficult time in my life.
If you are having difficulties and are struggling to come to a satisfactory resolution in a civil fashion, I cannot recommend Faye Shortall and Thrackray Williams Bromley enough.

We used Thackray Williams for our recent house move and were so impressed by the level of service and professionalism we received from both Katie and Eleanor who managed our case. Both were extremely helpful and responsive throughout, allowing us to complete our sale and purchase swiftly and ahead of the SDLT deadline. We're very grateful for their support and would highly recommend their services.

If you would like your case dragged on and on and on with out any good reason, you should use them.
I needed a simple consent of their client which I am paying Thackray William for, took them over 4 months and still not resolved.
Solicitor who is dealing with this just pass on anything their clients passes on without any validation or checks. It causes a lot confusion and time wasted.
Every time I chase them their answer would just be I can't talk to you or your solicitors haven't kept you up to date. What took me 5 mins to resolve took them over two or three weeks to get a reply of it is in

Katherine and Lucy were very helpful and resourceful. Even though our purchase was slightly more complicated than usual, they handled everything with great professionalism and were extremely helpful in explaining every step to us as first time buyers. They were also extremely responsive to emails and phone calls. I have no problem recommending them to anybody.

Dear Stephanie Sculley,
Further to my recent completion, I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help and support in reaching the completion of my sale.
Over the years I have purchased 5 homes and I have never had a particularly good experience with solicitors. I can honestly say you made this the best service I have received, for the following reasons, professional, approachable and good communication especially when forms had to me completed you gave clear and helpful written guidance so that I could complete forms easily. It has been a pleasure communicating with you. I will certainly

Thackray Williams provided an exceptional service from reservation to completion. Being first buyers, we were relatively inexperienced with the whole process of buying a property, however, our apprehension was nullified based on the advice we received from the team. I would like to point attention to Kimberley who was diligent and patient with us throughout. She answered all emails and calls promptly with reassurance. Zoe and Lauren also assisted in making our house purchase a smooth process. Highly recommend for first time buyers.

I have used this firm for conveyancing purposes many times. I have found them to be professional, diligent and helpful on every occasion. They have a fastidious attention to detail, sort queries out quickly and… efficiently and feedback relevant material in an appropriate manner. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this firm if you are looking at this specific sector. Have been very impressed
