Residential Property

Truly world-class service from Rachael Hughes' team in conveyancing from start to finish. I was recommended the firm for an auction sale. I said proceed, and within minutes they sent me an app. I filled out the questionnaires and uploaded the proof of ID and other documents that night. Within 2-3 working days, they produced a legal pack (in brief, that is 60% of an entire conveyance that normally takes weeks). Rachael responds to queries by email rapidly, and it is a breath of fresh air having a solicitor who is so responsive. If you are looking to instruct Leathes Prior, they are a great firm. Do ask for Rachael Hughes; if you do, you will not want to use another conveyancing solicitor ever again.

We recently sold two properties and bought a third all with the assistance and expertise of Madison King, who went above and beyond what we expected to bring all three to a successful conclusion. We have happily recommended Leathes Prior to family and friends, who have been equally impressed by the standard of service offered. We have no hesitation in recommending Ms King.

This is the second time being a client of Leathes Prior and have had two incredible experiences. Leathes Prior were my solicitors in the purchase of our new home. Madison King is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain legal terms to me. I was able to speak to my solicitor whenever I needed to. Emails were replied to quickly and I was kept up to date with the progress. Thank you so much for everything. You really did make this process easier and smoother for us. Have recommended you to multiple people and will definitely use you again.

Having bought my first house some 23 years ago in Norwich I felt it appropriate to support local! Given our circumstances & a big shift in the market decades later Rachael & Angela didn't let us down. They were concise & reliable given our family circumstance at the time. The house I was looking to buy was also through the same agent which made all the communication & paperwork easier for Leathes Prior. All be it a difficult time with bereavement in the family the team here were great. Thank you to all the team there!

Jake was brilliant from start to finish when selling my property. The whole process was handled professionally, communication was excellent, and everything was explained clearly whenever I had a question. Selling a property can be stressful, but Jake made it feel far more straightforward than I expected.

Thank you so much for your hard work. Your efficiency never ceases to amaze. Looking forward to the next one already!

Emily Whelband at Leathes Prior has been outstanding in supporting the sale of my property. There were a few unexpected issues along the way which were dealt with in a timely and professional manner. Communication has been perfect and I have been updated effectively along the way. All my queries were dealt with appropriately. I would have no hesitation to recommend Emily's services to others.

From the bottom of my heart I can’t thank you enough! The house is just perfect and I had my heart set on this place and it is worth the wait and more! You made what was a horrible experience that more bearable and without you I’d have been lost! Thank you so much for fighting my corner and being so professional but also personal! You are amazing and will always hold a place in my heart for getting me this home!

We couldn’t be happier with the service we received from Anna and Izabela. From start to finish, they were absolutely exceptional. Their communication was outstanding. Every query we had was answered incredibly quickly, and we felt fully supported throughout the entire process. They were proactive in keeping us updated and in letting us know in advance whenever Anna would be out of the office or unavailable, so we were never left wondering what was happening. We felt they were really thorough, identifying discrepancies and highlighting anything the developer had overlooked or omitted. It gave us confidence that our interests were being protected. When I had concerns about an issue that arose, Anna quickly made time to meet with me and talk everything through. Her professionalism, reassurance, and willingness to go the extra mile made a huge difference and really put my mind at ease. Anna and Izabela were consistently approachable, knowledgeable, and we felt they were genuinely invested in helping us. Their attention to detail and responsiveness made a stressful process feel much more manageable.

My house purchase experience with Leathes Prior has been excellent. Emily Whelband in particular was a wonderful guiding hand throughout the process. She was always available on the end of the phone to offer advice and support. I couldn't be happier with the service provided.

I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to you both for everything you've done in dealing with the conveyancing for the sale of our property. I'm incredibly grateful for all the hard work, persistence and patience you both showed throughout. Your professionalism, perseverance and support throughout the process really did make a difference, and it certainly didn't go unnoticed. Thank you for sticking with it and helping us reach the finish line. We really appreciate everything you've done.

I really recommend using these. Rachael's knowledge, expertise, speed and professionalism was second to none. Angela Chalmers was also a delight, amazing communication, nothing was too much trouble. We look forward to using these amazing people to act for us again in the not too distant future.

Very pleased with the service in selling our property. Managing the sale from overseas could have been really stressful, but it was handled smoothly and professionally. Special thanks to Madison King, who made the transaction seamless. She gave clear advice and steady support, always acting with integrity and honesty and keeping our best interests at heart.

We were so pleased that we chose Leathes Prior when we moved house. Rachael was very thorough and kept us up to date with every step of the move, replying swiftly to our emails. If Rachael wasn’t able to respond, Angela, Rachael’s assistant would keep us up to date. When things got frustrating towards the end of the process, Rachael’s persistence got things moving. Thank you Rachael and Angela for your support through the whole process.

I honestly cannot recommend Anna highly enough. Throughout our house sale, Anna was worth her weight in gold. She was proactive, responsive and always one step ahead, making sure things kept moving when the process could easily have stalled. She chased when needed, kept pressure on all parties involved and, most importantly, kept us informed every step of the way. We always knew where things stood and what was happening next, which made a stressful process far easier to manage. It genuinely felt like Anna cared about getting the sale completed and was fully invested in achieving the best outcome for us. Her professionalism, communication and determination were instrumental in getting the transaction across the line. Thank you, Anna. We are incredibly grateful for all your hard work and support.

We recently completed the purchase of a property through Leathes Prior and were extremely impressed with the service we received from Leanne Riches. This was not a straightforward transaction, involving a repossession sale and several unexpected delays outside of her control. Throughout the process, Leanne was professional, proactive, responsive and always willing to explain matters clearly. She kept us updated at every stage and worked hard to move the transaction forward despite numerous challenges. Her advice gave us confidence throughout the purchase, and we always felt that our interests were being looked after. Thanks to her persistence and dedication, the transaction completed successfully and we are very grateful for all her hard work. We would not hesitate to recommend Leanne and Leathes Prior to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable solicitor. We look forward to working with them again on future property purchases.

Very professional and honest communications throughout. Quality at a reasonable price. Leanne was my acting solicitor and did a very professional and thorough job!

Helen at Leathes Prior provided excellent service from start to finish on the purchase of my new property. She was always responsive whenever I had any issues or questions, and explained each step of the process in a way that was easy to understand. Would definitely recommend, particularly to any first-time buyers.

Over the past six months, Lily has managed the conveyancing process for us across three properties. Throughout, she kept us fully informed at every stage and ensured that both our sales and purchase progressed smoothly and in line with the required timescales. Her professionalism, efficiency, and personal approach made what can often be a stressful process feel seamless. We would highly recommend Leathes Prior to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and personable service.

Just wanted to take a moment to praise this law firm following the recent purchase of our house. They provided exceptional guidance and advice and ensured we remained calm throughout the process. Buying a house isn’t for the faint hearted. A special mention has to go Jake Mowatt and his team. Service was excellent and he is a credit to this establishment. His knowledge of the industry he works in was a blessing for us and he made the process effortless! If we need a solicitor for any other reason in the future we will be sure to select Leathes Prior again without hesitation.

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.

I have used both Lilly and Jakes teams at Leathes Prior and both have been very efficient and most importantly very timely and quick at responding to my emails and getting the mortgages completed - I've had other solicitors not reply for days or just go awol - these guys its never a worry.

We have used Leathes Prior for a number of years for conveyancing and have always received excellent service. Everything is dealt with promptly. Communication is excellent. The team are both professional and knowledgeable. Madison King and Kate Newsom did an excellent job for us and we are very grateful to them.

Excellent service, kept up to date on a very regular basis on the purchase of my home. I would highly recommend Leathes Prior. Best Solicitor firm I have ever dealt with.

I needed a conveyancer for a house sale following my Mum’s death and was recommended Leathes Prior, based in Norwich. After an initial enquiry I was informed that Anna Jordan and her team would be dealing with the matter. From the very start and right the way through the process they have been excellent. Communications have been clear and prompt and they have answered any queries I have had. There is even an app which can be used for updates and communications if needed. The conveyancing has proceeded smoothly. I have been very pleased with the service and would recommend Leathes Prior to anyone needing a similar service. Thank you very much indeed.
