I used Gough Thorne LLP for my first home purchase and I’m so glad I did. As a first-time buyer, I had lots of questions and at times it felt a bit overwhelming, but Andrew Groves and the team were su... See more

Great service
Great service. A special thank you to Paula who was so helpful with my house sale. Would definitely recommend them.
Karolina handled our case and was very…
Karolina handled our case and was very professionally , sellers sent all the responses just before the week before the stamp duty rise , but we were still able to complete within the deadline. Karolina has been really helpful in understanding the situation and prioritising and seeing through the sale.
Professional staff
Professional staff, proactive who meet the deadlines even very difficult situations.
Excellent service
Excellent service. Time is critical when buying a property, and these solicitors understood that perfectly especially with the tight deadline we had. Always kept us informed and upto date and always on hand to answer any queries. Karolina has been so helpful and extremely pleasant through out the process, would 100% recommend.
Thank you 👏
I had the pleasure of working with Jennifer’s team, with Karolina as my main point of contact, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their professionalism, efficiency, and expertise. From the very start, Karolina was exceptional—communicative, and thank you for the laughters😂 and the continued reassurance along the way.
What truly set the team apart was their ability to meet a tight deadline.
A huge thank you to you all, Jennifer, Karolina, and everyone I had the pleasure of speaking with. Your hard work and commitment are truly appreciated! 👏
Calm and quietly efficient - feeling supported
Prompt reponses to phone messages and emails. Fast conveyancing and management of my sale and parallel purchase was easily tracked; timely responses to questions (mine and buyers); a readily useable document portal so key dox and emails can be lodged and accessed, with visibility of internal governance and tracking for progress... and all at a fair price. No fuss or scaremongering when odd questions popped up which we thought we'd put to bed. Property sites say conveyancing takes 140-180 days - Rakesh did the magic in less than a third of that. Big thanx!
Outstanding service from manisha and…
Outstanding service from manisha and Zain on the purchase of my property they were ahead of the other side all the way and had completed by 10am on the day.
Very friendly and helpful
Very friendly and helpful, always at the end of the phone
Great communication from Zain’s team
Great communication from Zain’s team. Even if our solicitor wasn’t available one of the team members was always able to update us on the process.
Great experience!
We had a complex situation in the recent sale of our 2 bedroom maisonette, having had one offer fall through previously we were keen not to have a repetition. From the onset Dawn (in Zain’s team) took the bull by the horns. She had a clear understanding of the situation and was able to talk us through our options, explaining cost implications etc. All in all it was a smooth process and we completed in good time. I'd recommend Gough Thorne solicitors and would happily use them again in future.
We would not chose Gough Thorne to represent us again.
We had issue after issue with the sale of our property. In speaking with other estate agents and professionals, they're not a well-regarded solicitors and we don't feel we would use them again if we were to move (noticed an issue with the mortgage the day before we completed after a 6-month sale process; noticed enquiries on our purchase property hadn't been carried out the day we were due to exchange etc etc). A lot of avoidable issues occurred during our sale and purchase that could have been avoided which could have saved so much stress. Paula even reminded us to 'manage our expectations' when we asked to speak to our solicitor on the day we were due to exchange and were instead requested to sign a disclaimer to absolve Gough Thorne of future accountability - incredibly unhelpful.
Paula Hill is an absolute superstar
Paula Hill is an absolute superstar! I have no idea how much she earns, but whatever it is—give her more! She worked tirelessly, pulling long hours to get my purchase over the line before the stamp duty deadline. And despite dealing with nightmare vendors (who tried every trick in the book—tying in properties to a no-chain sale, being dismissive, and causing pointless delays), she stayed calm, kind, and reassuring the entire time. Seriously, I don’t know how she does it! If anyone deserves a promotion, it’s Paula. I really lucked out having her by my side throughout this whole process, she's actually the best!.. Anyway I have to go tidy up this house>_>
The solicitors were amazing
The solicitors were amazing, I highly recommend.
Thank you Sabia A.
It was a pleasure to work with Sabia A. She is an extraordinary lawyer who helped us a lot and worked hard to ensure that everything was completed on time. She always responded promptly to our questions and requests. I thank her from the bottom of my heart and highly recommend her.💜🙏
Fantastic experience using Gough…
Fantastic experience using Gough Thorne, pleasure to deal with and smooth process purchasing our property, a special thanks to Manisha who was there every step of the way. Thank you !
Paula was so good
Paula was so good - helpful, timely, understanding, professional, yet human! I previously have used other sols and I’ve always been super stressed and found it quite traumatic. I won’t even go anywhere else - they have a loyal customer in me for life! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

If you're looking for a solicitor who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares about her clients, Johanna and Gough Thorne is the one to choose.
I cannot recommend Johanna highly enough! From start to finish, she was absolutely fantastic—efficient, professional, and incredibly reassuring throughout the entire process. Her communication was second to none; she was always quick to respond, keeping me informed every step of the way.
Johanna truly went above and beyond, handling every issue with speed and expertise. She anticipated potential challenges and resolved them before they could become problems, which made the entire experience so much smoother. Most importantly, she always took the time to reassure me, easing any anxieties I had and giving me complete confidence in her abilities.
If you're looking for a solicitor who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares about her clients, Johanna and Gough Thorne is the one to choose. I’m so grateful for her dedication and would not hesitate to use her services again in the future!
Great service and communication
Great service and communication. Helpfull staff. Would reccomend this company.
Would Absolutely Recommend!!
Karolina was our case handler on the sale and purchase of our home and new home. She was brilliant. Anytime I had a query she answered it straight away. It was so nice as well to be able to ring up and know there was one main person handling our case and not having to speak to multiple people.
Once we knew the date we wanted to exchange and complete Karolina worked so hard to make it possible for us! She was great and I would really recommend Gough Thorne. Thank you so much Karolina and Gough Thorne!
