He covered all the technicalities well but was also great in dealing with the negotiations and people involved which really helped to move things along. Also, great communication and easy to pick up the phone and have a quick conversation which we really appreciated. Thank you also to Helen, who was most helpful along the way."

"Jo is hands down the best solicitor we’ve ever worked with. She is brilliant, no-nonsense, and actually makes the whole process fun, which is a rare thing to say about moving house! She is head and shoulders above anyone else we have used in the past. If you want someone who gets the job done efficiently while being incredibly friendly and approachable, Jo is the one.

"I am currently being represented by James Steward in the conveyancing department at Hunt & Coombs, and I have been consistently impressed with the exceptional level of expertise, care and attention he has provided throughout the handling of the two property sales. The speed and efficiency with which these transactions have been completed, and how seamlessly everything has gone, has truly exceeded my expectations. I've been a client of the firm for years, utilising two locations and working with various staff members on both personal and business matters. Time and again, they go above and beyond to deliver outstanding service with minimal fuss. One thing I particularly appreciate is their consistent and transparent approach to billing, which is a rare quality in today's market. It's a testament to their professionalism and integrity. My first experience with the firm was in 2013 when I worked with Henry Anstey. Henry was the first solicitor I instructed, and he truly set the bar high. He helped me navigate a complex estate, probate, Will and Testament setup, and the creation and ongoing management of my trust. Henry's knowledge, dedication, and passion for solving problems made the impossible possible. I am forever grateful to him for his unwavering support over the years. I cannot recommend Hunt & Coombs highly enough. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to client care make them stand out, and I look forward to continuing to work with them for many years to come."

"I had the pleasure of working with Jo Wood during the sale of my mother-in-law's property. I feel we established a great professional/client relationship. Jo was always quick to respond to my queries and buyer's solicitor. Nothing was too much trouble. Jo was patient and reassuring. We will be looking to move in the near future. I have already asked Jo to deal with our sale and purchase of our new property when the time comes. I can't thank Jo enough."

"I worked with Jo on the sale and purchase of our homes and am beyond words for how incredible she was throughout our journey, she was always incredibly responsive and helpful throughout, I could trust her to handle anything that was thrown at her, she provided incredible advice and guidance throughout and was incredibly supportive of any decisions we made along the way. Thank you ever so much Jo for being so incredible and I'd love to say we will work with you again but hopefully we are in our forever home thanks to your assistance. Would 100% recommend you to anyone we know!"

"We were fortunate to have Claire Hogben handle our case, and she was absolutely brilliant throughout. Claire was efficent, clear, concise and highly professional, and she gave us complete confidence even when there were many obstacles along the way. She always seemed genuinely dedicated to us as her clients and made the whole process far less stressful than it might otherwise have been. Based on our experience, there is little we could suggest to improve the service - it was excellent from start to finish."

"Pippa has been amazing through our sale and purchase.
