The best!

We can’t recommend Claire highly enough. As first-time house buyers, the whole process felt quite daunting at first, but Claire was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. She explained everything clearly and in a way that was easy to understand, was always quick to respond, and consistently had our best interests at heart throughout the transaction.

Her professionalism, support, and attention to detail gave us so much confidence during the purchase, and we always felt reassured knowing she was handling everything so thoroughly.

Thanks to Claire’s hard work and due diligence, the entire process felt far less stressful than we expected, because of you.

We’re incredibly grateful for all of her help and support, and we’ll certainly be recommending Claire to all of our friends and family. Thank you again, Claire!

Highly Recommended

Claire has seen me though a house sale & onward purchase. Claire came recommended by word of mouth and the positive recommendation did not disappoint, having been though previous sales and purchases over the years with other solicitors.

Claire is straight forward and understandable in her communication, together with fighting your corner during the ups & downs of the conveyancing process.

I would not hesitate to use her services in future or recommend her to my nearest and dearest.

speaking as a sales progressor

speaking as a sales progressor, I have to say Claire was excellent to work with. She was responsive and always helpful knowing that I also had her clients best interest at heart. We could do with more solicitors like her.

Claire was an absolute pleasure to work…

Claire was an absolute pleasure to work with and I cannot recommend her highly enough. We were first time buyers and she made a complicated and frustrating process as easy as possible. It made such a difference feeling confident the whole way through that we had someone in our corner moving the transaction forward and patiently explaining what needed to be done. Her diligence and attention to detail never failed to impress, and her lightning-fast response times meant that any queries or issues were typically resolved on the day they were raised. When the process was dragging on the seller's end, she was also fantastic in doing her best to push things along day after day to get us to completion.

Claire's polite professionalism and work ethic really stood out in a world where we had heard so many horror stories from others of negative experiences with different conveyancers. We feel so lucky to have found Claire, and will hope to use her services again in the future beyond any doubt.

Claire is an excellent solicitor

Without any hesitation I recommend Claire and am truly grateful to have had her represent me as a buyer. She was thorough, detailed and punctual and kept the whole process moving: I did not have to chase or follow up anything. As a first-time buyer and unfamiliar with the buying process I appreciated her answering my sometimes silly questions and explaining everything thoroughly. If you are looking for a meticulous and driven solicitor, Claire is for you!

Claire was a fantastic solicitor

Claire was a fantastic solicitor for selling and buying our properties. She took us through each step with clear instructions and made the whole process very easy. Claire was amazing at dealing with other parties involved in the sale of the flat, they occasionally needed a little direction in what was required of them. We cannot recommend her enough for making what can be an incredibly stressful time much easier - thank you !

Super fast experience for first time buyer

As a first-time buyer, I was nervous about the whole process, but Claire made everything smooth and stress-free.
What impressed me most was the speed - we went from offer accepted to completion in just 8 weeks, really unheard of in London. They kept me informed at every step, explained everything clearly, and responded promptly to all my questions.

They handled all the legal complexities seamlessly while making sure I understood what was happening throughout.

Would absolutely recommend Claire to anyone buying property, especially first-time buyers who need that extra guidance and reassurance.

Claire has been truly amazing…

Claire has been truly amazing throughout the recent sale of my flat. She was incredibly reassuring, knowledgeable and responsive - which is most appreciated. Her attention to details, such as the automated email responses to acknowledge receipt of emails and the very thoughtful organisation of emails’ headings made it incredibly easy to focus on issues at hand and allow for easy reference later on too. Fully recommend Claire and would happily work with her on future conveyancing matters too.

Best Solicitor Ever

Claire was an amazing solicitor. I was a first time buyer with an unfortunately complicated leasehold arrangement. Claire was diligent, patient, and made me feel confident about each step of the way. I couldn't have asked for a better solicitor for this purchase. I would give a 10/5 if possible.

Always on the ball

Claire is a fantastic solicitor. She will hold your hand all the way through.

Claire is incredibly quick on communication, both with you and other parties involved in a transaction. If things need chasing, Claire will get it done.

After first working with Claire I've asked her to work with us on two more transactions. And if I ever need a solicitor again, I know who I'll be reaching out to first. Thank you Claire!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Claire

I recently had the pleasure of working with Claire Russel -Lartaud on my property purchase, and I highly recommend their services.

From the very start, Claire was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and approachable. She guided me through the entire process with clarity and patience, making what can often be a stressful experience feel manageable and straightforward.

Claire kept me updated at every stage, promptly responded to my queries, and explained all the legal jargon in terms I could easily understand. Claire also demonstrated excellent attention to detail, ensuring that every aspect of the purchase was thoroughly reviewed and any potential issues were addressed well before they could become problems.

Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with the service provided by Claire. If you're looking for a solicitor who is not only highly competent but also genuinely cares about their clients, I would highly recommend Claire for your property transaction.

Thank you, Claire, for making my home-buying experience a positive one!

Recommendation

I would certainly recommend Claire as a solicitor and would also choose to complete a sale or purchase with her again. Claire was responsive and dealt particularly well when it came to a last-minute negotiation close to the completion date. She also has shown professional experience dealing with purchasers who are based abroad which can add a layer of administrative steps to a purchase. She acted kindly and professionally throughout.

Fantastic conveyancing work

Claire was highly efficient at managing the conveyancing work for our property purchase. She is a proactive communicator, giving us guidance throughout and clearly explaining options and choices at crucial times.

Claire was prompt in dealing with queries and we both felt she also took time to understand what was important to us in the buying process.

Great coveyancer!

I work as an estate agent and worked with Claire on one of my transactions. Claire acted on behalf of the buyers and the level of professionalism was impeccable. The way in which she handled the transaction was great and the communication with myself was also there. It is very common for a solicitor to not communicate with the selling agent and this becomes an issue as you are expected to keep both the sellers and buyers updated however Claire was always thorough with what remains outstanding making my job ten folds easier! On top of this, Claire's knowledge and professionalism made this transaction go smoothly and swiftly - will definitely be recommending Claire and her team!
