I would absolutely not recommend using YVA solicitors. I worked with a solicitor, Doloros, on the sale of my flat and found he "dropped the ball" on several occasions. The major and "final blow" be... See more

Highly recommend

My family and I have used YVA solicitors several times now and had a good experience each time. I would like to thank Paul in particular as he dealt with my flat sale and house purchase. It took two and a half years to finally sell my property and complete on a new one after things fell through twice. Paul dealt with all enquiries promptly and efficiently. He was easy to talk to, very understanding, helpful and patient, responded to my questions and concerns, kept me informed throughout and couldn’t have done more to get things done. I can’t recommend him highly enough and wouldn’t hesitate to use him again. I would also like to thank Chris for his help in getting wills updated at very short notice when my husband was dying and in dealing with probate.
They made a very difficult situation that bit easier to get bear. Thank you both very much.

Paul Y was brilliant for our house…

Paul Y was brilliant for our house move. He answered every query promptly and thoroughly. On one occasion, he even took the time to reassure me on the phone when a last minute mishap happened. I had heard quite a few horror stories from friends about conveyancers being slow but did not need to worry about that with Paul and the YVA team. Thanks again to Paul and the team for all the hard work.

Reliable, quick, personable and good value for money

YVA review

We were put in touch with YVA, and specifically Nick Kephalas, via a third party recommendation. We were getting bogged down with inconclusive, and as we later found out, incorrect advice from a firm of Licensed Conveyancers we had engaged for a complex property transaction. Time was running out for us to Complete to avoid financial penalties.

What a recommendation it proved to be!

Nick very quickly determined what was needed for us to complete the transaction, giving super clear and concise advice and guidance. He responded to our numerous questions extremely quickly - often literally within minutes and certainly the same day, and often outside of normal hours. We even met with him at 07.00hr in the morning - tell me of another Solicitor prepared to meet clients at that time of the day! He demonstrates a total command of his subject.

Nick solves problems. He is also very personable, approachable and has a laser like focus on delivering a successful outcome. He expertly educated the Conveyancers, offering them professional, unambiguous instructions on our behalf that they were able to comply with. The complexities melted away, as did the stress we were feeling.

Nick makes you feel like you are his only client. You get the attention you need and want, and when you want it.

We had never heard of YVA before now. We are so glad we were recommended to the firm, and even more glad we had Nick on our side. He saved us a considerable amount of money. He resolved a problem that other so called professionals had told us wasn’t possible. He is the hardest working, most responsive solicitor I have ever come across. The added bonus is that Nick’s service was tremendous value for money. You can’t often say that about most of the professionals you have to deal with in such transactions.

I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending YVA and Nick. It’s a very easy decision!

Excellent service - quick response

We found Jonathan Bishop at YVA solicitor very effective in conveyancing matter with our last property purchase. He is proactive, detailed-oriented and always available to answer our query in reasonable time frame. These quality is rare to find in conveyancing industry. We will surely use his service again and highly recommend him.

Impressive work

We used the services of Paul Yiannakas at YVA for our recent move, having had a recommendation from our estate agent. His service was outstanding in every way. He guided us through every step of the transaction and always responded by return to every query. I would thoroughly recommend Paul for any conveyance work.

Andreas Liassides has been a pleasure…

Andreas Liassides has been a pleasure to work with. He intelligently navigated personal and emotional issues which had arisen around a thorny and convoluted legal issue. He was able to skilfully acknowledge their relevance while consistently maintaining focus on the kernel legal issue. This meant we believed we were represented in the best possible way. Andreas explored every possible legal and ‘common sense’ argument and in doing so proved to be a strong and formidable ally.

The best in town

Having used a firm of solicitors to sell a property in Finchley and found them totally useless I was put in touch with Paul Yiannakas at YVA solicitors in North Finchley to handle another sale. This man was fantastic. He kept us totally up to date with developments at all times and was fully knowledgeable on all matters to do with property sales/purchases.Whenever I contacted him regarding my sale he replied within the hour, every time. From my point of view that was priceless. I really don't know if he was the cheapest around or the most expensive. It doesn't matter. He was the best.

Many thanks for the great work
