I just wanted to quickly convey our satisfaction with David Clarke and his team following our recent purchase of a property in Birchfield Road, Stockport. As expats and nowhere Norwich, confidence was key and David came highly recommended and didn't let us down. We were kept well informed throughout and any queries were answered quickly and satisfactorily. A thoroughly professional job and we would have no hesitation in recommending Leathes Prior to others in the future.
As always excellent, courteous, prompt and professional service from David.
I just want to say " thank you" from the bottom of my heart. You are a great solicitor to rely on, and I am really grateful for all your help and advice.
David Clarke as sharp and efficient as ever.
David Clarke provided an outstanding service.
Once again David Clarke was on the ball ahead of the competition. Easily the best Solicitor for conveyancing I have ever used...
Just superb – great service, great communication, no gobbledegook.
Partner David Clarke is recommended for all aspects of commercial property and residential development work.
