What our clients say

Eleanor Chapman kindly took me on as a client at very short notice with a tight deadline looming for both a sale of a property and a remortgage. Eleanor was extremely competent, kind and professional dealing with my emails and queries. I can highly recommend her and will definitely be returning as a client.

Client feedback

From the very first property purchase, Eleanor has been absolutely excellent. After the first experience, we requested her by name and asked whether she could be the main solicitor dealing with it. Every interaction with Eleanor, for every situation, has been warm and professional. She is quick to respond, and we've never had any doubt that something she was in charge of would have any issues.

Client feedback

Eleanor has been absolutely excellent throughout the process from start to finish. She has been approachable, knowledgeable, and friendly at all times. She is a credit to Leathes Prior, and I highly recommend her to anyone who needs the support we've needed.

Client feedback

I would definitely recommend you guys, I feel you have gone above and beyond to keep me updated at every stage of my purchase.

Client feedback

Eleanor and Steve deserve full credit for completing a complex remortgage contract in time for Christmas. Where most Solicitors' practices would have knocked off and sorted in the New Year, they battled on to the bitter end. They are outstanding examples of true professionalism, offering a one to one service where you feel they really care to get the job done. I would highly recommend them.
