There are no words to describe how grateful I am to the So Legal team, in particular Katie and Lauren during the sale and purchase of my property which right in the middle of this my wife passed away, their professionalism, sympathy and empathy in my mind went over and above their duty as my solicitors, for that I will forever be in your debt
Worked with Joe Kennedy and his team in Eastbourne on a house sale and purchase. Joe was highly responsive and proactive throughout, providing an excellent client service.
First class service from Chloe Loft and the others at SoLegal. Great communication with regular updates along the way. I would use again.
Used this firm for property purchase. Awful experience. Extremely difficult to get in touch with anyone. Needed constant chasing. Needed to check everything they did as they would often miss things and make mistakes. Avoid

We have today completed on the sale of our flat and the whole process has run extremely smoothly with So Legal. I can in particularly recommend James Halpin (Head of Commercial Property) who was so responsive throughout from the very first point of contact and quote to completion. It was not a straightforward sale with multiple parties involved, however James navigated all the issues, promptly responding throughout, resulting in a timely completion and him not deviating from his original quote. Would 100% use So Legal again.

They were consistently fast to respond to my emails and action them, thorough, patient, answered my queries clearly and were always so friendly and considerate. It never felt transactional - I was well looked after. They also give comprehensive info packs that answer many questions. Big thanks to Nicole H.

I recently used SO Legal for a lease extension and was thoroughly impressed. Jennifer Slater and Aine Dillon kept me well-informed throughout the entire process, responded promptly to any queries, and the team handled everything with real efficiency. The whole matter was dealt with smoothly from start to finish. I was very happy with the service and would not hesitate to recommend Jennifer, Aine, and the team at SO Legal.

My first telephone enquiry was warm, informative and reassuring.
The fee was explained and was a one off inclusive fee.
There was a deadline of about 4 weeks. The whole thing was completed in less than the deadline. Along the way I was kept informed in a friendly and open way, inviting any queries or concerns.
The invoice was detailed and clear and was as originally stated.
I was hugely relieved to find such proficient and professional people and cannot rate them highly enough.

SO Legal recently helped with my flat purchase as a first time buyer, and I would highly recommend them to others. The legal costs were transparent and competitive, the process was extremely efficient (several friends were shocked at how quickly the conveyancing progressed), and Katie was really helpful and reassuring throughout. I would definitely use them again in future.

I can’t recommend SO Legal enough, they helped me with a business sale. They explained everything, I always had a contact and someone to ask any questions. I can highly recommend their team who work well together. Stuart Dickens, supported me and explained legal jargon very well. Thank you

I purchased and sold a property using SO Legal for conveyancing and both Nicola Radford and Stephanie Smithers were outstanding in their service! They were both quick and clear in their communication and chasing other solicitors and requesting all the correct information. I would happily use their services again if I ever needed to in the future.

We recently worked with SO Legal on our company’s purchase of number of different properties and were very pleased with the service provided. James and Judie were highly responsive throughout the process, communicated clearly, and ensured everything progressed smoothly despite the very tight timelines involved.
The transactions were completed efficiently and within the agreed timeframe, and their professionalism gave us confidence at every stage. We appreciate their support and would not hesitate to recommend them or use their services again in the future.

Chloe Loft assisted myself and my partner in the legal process of purchasing our first home together. It was a quick and relatively painless process and she was happy to answer any questions we had along the way.
