Fantastic conveyance service

Absolutely brilliant service from this wonderful conveyancing team, who dealt with our sale & our purchase.
Superb communication and excellent explanations throughout a journey we knew nothing about. We will have no hesitation in recommending Switalskis, who we actually used because of the caring, compassionate and professional service they gave when we lost our Mum.
No regrets & no downside to using them. Sarah Kent & Laura were instrumental in making a stressful journey better than anticipated.
We can’t thank them enough.

Highly Recommend Briony Ely and the Switalskis Team

We had a positive experience with Briony Ely when we sold our previous house and decided to use Switalskis again for the purchase of our new home. Briony has been fantastic throughout, keeping us informed at every stage and always responding promptly to any queries we had. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and approachable manner made what can often be a stressful process feel much more manageable. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Briony and the team at Switalskis to anyone looking for reliable and supportive conveyancing services.

I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough

I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough. From start to finish, she was completely on top of everything and consistently ahead of the game at every stage of the process. Communication was excellent! She was always contactable, quick to respond, and incredibly clear in explaining things.

Her knowledge and professionalism really stood out, giving me confidence throughout what can often be a stressful experience. What impressed me most was her dedication, I even saw emails from her at 6am on Christmas Eve, which just shows her exceptional work ethic and commitment to getting the job done.

If you’re looking for a solicitor who is proactive, reliable, and genuinely cares about delivering a great service, Sarah is exactly who you want.

Switalskis where fantastic

Switalskis where fantastic! -they had taken over from PM property lawyers after they had gone AWOl and left us in an awful situation days before completing and switalskis came to our rescue after several attempts to reach out to other solicitors who where not will to take over our case Alistar McKinlay and he team where more than happy to take it on - they have been very professional and compassionate with our situation and have brought our nightmare situation to an end and believe that if it was not for them we would not have completed to move on our house and saved me and my wife from a mental breakdown 🤣 would very much recommend them to anyone

Sarah from Switalskis was brilliant

We used Switalskis for both our sale and purchase and Sarah was fantastic. This was a difficult protracted chain and Sarah always kept us informed, provided very speedy responses on every enquiry or issue we had and the work was done very diligently. We are pleased we had such a good service on our side at a very stressful time.

Anyone going through family court would be incredibly fortunate to have a solicitor like her by their side.


After six long years in the family court system, my case finally came to an end at my final hearing. Those six years were some of the most emotionally draining and challenging years of my life. Anyone who has been through family court will understand how overwhelming, stressful, and isolating that journey can feel.

For my final hearing, I was represented by Sumaiyah Mohammad, and I truly cannot put into words how grateful I am that she was the person standing beside me on that day.

Even though she only represented me for that final hearing, the difference she made was enormous. From the moment she stepped into my case, she treated it with care, understanding, and genuine compassion. She listened, she understood the weight of the six-year journey behind me, and she made me feel like my voice and my experience truly mattered.

Walking into that courtroom after everything I had been through was incredibly emotional, but having her beside me gave me a sense of calm and reassurance I hadn’t felt in a long time. She was prepared, confident, and completely dedicated to doing the very best for me. In that moment, after so many years of fighting to be heard, I finally felt like I had someone truly advocating for me.

She helped bring closure to a chapter of my life that had taken so much from me, and I will always be grateful for the role she played in helping me finally move forward.

I only wish I had found her sooner in my journey. Anyone going through family court would be incredibly fortunate to have a solicitor like her by their side.
