We have dealt with Becci and Lorna for both our sale and purchase of our houses. They have both been highly professional, and responsive to any questions we had. It’s all been completed without any issues. We recommend these solicitors.

At a very low point of my life after having false allegations made against me and having my children’s lives absolutely disrupted. I instructed them to gain me access to see my children on what I thought was a pay as you I had to pay £1000 up front after seeing the incompetence I said I no longer want your services to then be told I owe them £500 now they’ve sold the debt to bailiffs

Denise Owen guided us through the sale of a letting property that we owned just outside of Salisbury.The process took longer than we might have wished for but the delays were down to other parties and whilst we were somewhat exasperated by the delays Denise has a calm and professional approach that helped us through to completion.

I put in to buy a flat a year ago this month
October there was no chain involved and i had a large deposit to put down there were a few issues that had to be resolved, which took for ever to sort out my main grevience is that i was not allowed into there office to speak to a person everthing had to be done by email which i did not find satisfactory, there was a lot of bickering going on between both of the solicetors involved and in the end i had to get the estate agent to help out on my behalf. which i should not have had to do.
We completed on the 9th of october which was a whole year after i put my offer in. i found the experience quite stressfull. i have dealt with Trethowans a few times over the years and i can honestley say that i wont be using them in the future and i certainly wont be recomending them to anyone else

A big thank you to Britney and Kira at Trethowans. She recently provided invaluable assistance with a complex agreement from my employer. The entire process was handled exceptionally well and smoothly, resulting in a successful outcome. I highly recommend her services and sincerely appreciate her expertise!

Highly recommend Lorna from Trethowans. She is efficient, professional and reliable with great communication. She has helped us with the sale and purchase of a few properties in the last couple of years and we can't recommend her and the team at Trethowans enough!

Clare and Sam at Trethowans were excellent. At very short notice they set up a new Will for me. Clare’s advice and help was very thorough. Thank you so much for such great service.

Trethowans looked after the conveyancing of our flat. This had the usual ups and downs and our Solicitor navigated through these leading to a successful sale.

Reply from Trethowans
Wonderful service . All my questions answered clearly and in language I understood. Time was taken to explain to my satisfaction. Im left feeling relief :)

We were well informed and the process was as speedy as possible for the flat sale. All of the staff at this branch were polite and friendly.

Jon Laidler was fantastic. Super supportive and communicative throughout the whole process. Highly recommend Jon and his team.

I was recommended to use Trethowans as trusted solicitors and Jon Laidlow dealt with my property conveyancing efficiently professionally and without any stress on my side. Will definitely use them again.

We’ve had an absolutely top notch experience with Trethowans.
2 different projects with Halina Mitchell and her team leading one and Mihiri Gagraj & her team leading the other. Both concluded successfully.
Thank you both!

Denise and Hannah helped us through a process that was made more complicated than necessary by our vendors. They explained everything clearly and were always happy to answer questions. They ensured that issues were resolved correctly rather than left as our vendor's solicitor seemed ready to do.

Quote: What I really liked about the Trethowans’ quote was, unlike other competitors, they gave me a full breakdown of all the cost involved. So, when it came to pay the final bill there were no surprises. As a first time buyer this was really great.
Onboarding: onboarding experience was good. I had a few issues with eCOS system trying to verify my ID. Other than that portal was really useful.
Conveyancing: Jon Laidler helped me to secure my first home. As a first time buyer, there are so many things you are not aware of and Jon was there every step of the way. My purchase was slightly tricky as I was buying from a company rather than an individual, and Jon did a great job. Communication was great, clear and prompt.
Overall: Really great experience. Would recommend both Trethowans and Jon Laidler to anyone looking for a firm to represent them when buying a house.
