Rachael Hughes

I instructed Rachael at Leathes Prior with no previous notice after having to change solicitors with my first home purchase straight after the Christmas break last minute. She took it all on and made it possible with politeness, incredible speed, communication and reliability. I can honestly say she and her team made everything happen in the smoothest way possible with the situation I was in. I am truly thankful for all the efforts and will be my go to solicitor for any future requirements. Highly recommend to anyone. Thank you.

We used Leathes Prior for the sale and purchase of house. We were so extremely lucky to use Rachael Hughes. Rachael is beyond spectacular along with her assistant Angela. Rachael excels in her communication which is so important during such a stressful and lengthy process. Whenever we had a question Rachael would reply before the end of her working day whether she could answer the question or not. We had some ongoing issues after completion which Rachael guided us through when she really didn't have to. If all conveyancers were like Rachael with her impeccable attention to detail and working way, the process would be a lot smoother. It's true what they say you get what you pay for. We would use Rachael Hughes and Leathes Prior again in a heartbeat. Thank you again Rachael for all you have done.

Leathes Prior came to my rescue after extremely disappointing service from another legal company. Rachael Hughes, and her team, provided outstanding service from start to completion. Her communication, organisation and consideration were consistently excellent though-out the process. I recommend this company without hesitation.

Client feedback - James Hawkins

Rachael from Leathes Prior and the whole team (shout out to Angela) have been excellent in both the sale of my late mother's property and the purchase of ours. I personally found them to be caring, empathetic about the circumstances. Everything was reasonably straightforward and if not, they were quick to action and put it back on track and to keep me up to date, plus answer any questions I had. The communication was excellent, and I always got a quick reply.

Rachael Hughes has truly gone above and beyond for us in our purchase. She has kept us up to date at all times and sought comprehensive information regarding the process of our transaction. Documentation has been sent and dealt with promptly, and she has remained supportive, compassionate and professional at all times. Rachael has been instrumental in securing our exchange and completion dates and working towards a date that has suited all parties involved in our chain, and she has been highly efficient in doing so in a short space of time. I am truly thankful that Rachael has been handling our conveyancing and would recommend her services in a heartbeat to anyone in need of conveyancing services. Edmund Ramsdale also assisted with our case while Rachael was on annual leave, and was extremely prompt in his communications and informative in his responses - we truly appreciate him taking the time to do this. Rachael and Edmund are both an absolute credit to Leathes Prior.

Exceptional level of customer service from Rachael Hughes and her colleagues in the Leathes Prior conveyancing team. Communication was second to none and I had complete confidence in her. She is extremely knowledgeable and was able to explain things to me in a professional manner, whilst answering any questions I had; normally within the same working day, if not within the hour. Rachael was proactive in progressing the sale when it seemed the other solicitors in the chain were happy to drag out the process. Thank you to Rachael and team, it was a pleasure to deal with you

I recently completed a purchase and a sale of a property with Leathes Prior, with Rachael as my conveyancer. I wanted to pass on my thanks and feedback for Rachael. I moved to using Leathes Prior for conveyancing after seriously struggling with another solicitor for 3 months. Rachael managed to achieve what the other solicitor had in less than a week. She was very easy to contact, always picking up calls and responding to emails promptly. She was very diligent with the work and generally provided excellent service. I would like to thank Rachael for all her hard work and saving our move from failure!

Once again thank you very much LEATHES PRIOR Solicitors for the prompt and professional work.
