Molly Barrett was amazing to have as my solicitor. I was a first time buyer and she was unbelievably efficient and helpful with everything she did. She kept me updated she rang me and any questions answers so quickly. I had an awful experience before i changed and used NFL and i can’t not emphasise how amazing she was. She is a massive asset to your company and i would highly highly recommend to anyone. I will definitely be sending all my friends or family your way. Thankyou so much !!
Molly and her team were great, communication was fantastic, I always had a response to my emails within the day and if I called the team were engaged and client focussed.
Felt valued as a client and the quote was reasonable and no hidden extras!
We sold and bought with NFL recently and must say the service that Jamie provided went above and beyond. She was always available to talk to on the phone and incredibly prompt in dealing with any curve ball that arose and always offered solutions. I would recommend NFL and Jamie to anyone who is looking to move without a seconds hesitation.

Awful. No words. We had very little communication with them.
In fact I heard from the builder that they were not satisfied with information sent. It would have helped had they told me this.
Despite numerous requests it was clear to me they did not want to act for us and have done this.
That's fine. That is your choice. But you left it a bit late to tell us.
I have now instructed someone else.
Please be advised for anyone else they let an 85 year old down who has heart problems and is quite distraught by it and thanks to their actions we could lose our sale and our related purchase.
If you use them be warned they are not SRA regulated so if they go bust your money I do not think is covered in my honest opinion. Something I was not aware of.
I am actually fine you did not want to act but you should have communicated this far earlier than you have.
Zoe and Aimee have been absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Keeping me engaged, informed on everything. I haven’t had the pleasure previously working with solicitors like them two, I have already recommended them both to my relative for when they purchase. Outstanding service, I will always use NFL going forward and particularly Zoe & Aimee. Thank you so much your services have been incredible. You are a credit to NFL. All the best, Liz

We are extremely happy with the service we received. Communication was great, everyone was very helpful and moved things along as quickly as possible.
I would use Nairsey Fisher & Lewis again in the future if needed and I would recommend them.
Great service and quick responses. Very impressed with service - thank you to Molly and the team
Please do not waste your time with these solicitors. Overly priced!
Their communication was poor throughout.
They charged us for information they did not use.
Their charges at the end were over double the initial estimation.
Once we complained about how dissatisfied we were with their service there response was very patronising, saying that we did not understand how the legal process works. Evidently this was their job to know and they should have explained in detail the process. Lack of communication - again!
They requested information one week before moving, and blamed us for not giving the information over. They had not requested it so how were we to know they needed it.
Worst service, I have experienced and truly regret choosing them. Please choose alternative solicitors.

NFL Legal were brilliant, used them for 2 moves and had some different case handlers for sales and purchase but Jamie in particular was great and they were always responsive, you couldn't ask for more from a solicitor.
Thank you
Rob and Millie
We've had excellent support and guidance throughout the purchase and completion of our new property from the Nairnsey Fisher & Lewis team.
The process which can be complicated was explained to us throughout, with a high pace that enabled us to meet our ambitions timelines for selling, moving and completion on our new property.
The team were all friendly, helpful and knowledgeable with the process being very transparent and the online portal easy to use to find and review the relevant documents.
Thank you once again, I would highly recommend.

A very smooth journey from start to finish.
Julie Smith is a credit to her company.
Very quick in responding to any queries, what else would you ask for.

Working with nfl was an incredibly frustrating experience. Everything that could go wrong did—from the Quotation and Contract to Names, Financial Statements, and the Final Invoice.
My assigned lawyer was frequently unavailable and failed to inform us in advance of their absence on critical contractual dates.
Check EVERY DOCUMENT they show you, or better yet, appoint another firm if you have the option.
I had a fantastic experience with James Praties and Tracey Randall who conducted the sale of my property, which was a leasehold flat with various complexities such as Help to Buy redemption. The transaction was dealt with diligently with good, meaningful communication that inspired calmness and confidence. I would not hesitate to recommend NFL, especially based on the service provided by James et al.
The responsiveness and professionalism of all the conveyancing team were exemplary i couldn't recommend them more

The team at NFL were incredibly quick getting my file through to completion on a tight deadline with the developer. Everything was easy, digitally managed except a few key documents, so the process was very smooth for me. They were very responsive via email to questions and I am very grateful to now be a proud homeowner with the help of Charlotte and the team at NFL. Thank you!

Outstanding conveyancing service from Charlotte and her team. I was kept informed throughout the process and both exchange of contracts and completion took place seamlessly. Woud highly recommend.

I cannot thank the team at Nairnsey Fisher & Lewis enough for their tenacity and professionalism. They handled an incredibly complex linked transaction, involving both a frustrating leasehold Help to Buy sale and a new build purchase.
Selling the flat was a nightmare due to an absent freeholder and an apathetic estate agent, but Julie and Lyall steered the ship through incredibly choppy waters. They managed the process brilliantly while dealing with an extremely conservative and annoying counterpart lawyer who seemed determined to stall. They, alongside Cheryl, managed the new build relationship perfectly, ensuring that side of the deal stayed on track despite the complications.
Communication was top-tier—the whole team responded very quickly to every email and call. Despite the extra hurdles and the sheer amount of work required, the final price was more than fair for the level of service provided. If you want a firm that actually fights your corner and handles complex situations with ease, look no further.

I am very impressed with NFL. I am a first time buyer and they were really helpful, patient and always willing to answer all my questions. I would especially like to say ‘thank you’ to Cheryl Martin
Very professional and contactable for a house sale - didn’t skimp on ID checks and thorough - would use again and highly recommend

Molly Barrett at NF&L was fantastic to work with. She dealt with my matters promptly, professionally, and went out of her way to accommodate my specific requirements. I would absolutely recommend her and this firm for property related matters.
