Lightfoots acted for our lender in a bridging finance arrangement. At every stage they acted with the utmost professionalism , communicated clearly and accurately, and ensured that our transaction went through very quickly and efficiently. Everything promised was delivered. A pleasure dealing with them.

What a great company to work with!

What a great company to work with! We moved home during a particularly stressful time for our family. The Lightfoots team drove the process through very efficiently with minimal stress. They were always available to answer questions and were a pleasure to work with.
Lightfoots were recommended to us and I have already recommended them to others.

Sale and purchase

We recently completed a very difficult sale and purchase with Elise, who was fantastic throughout the entire process. Her excellent communication, constant support, and upbeat attitude made an extremely stressful time feel manageable.

I highly recommend Elise and wouldn’t hesitate to use lightfoots again.

Sophie Wilde did an excellent job in selling my house in Chinnor for me. She dealt with other solicitors and my estate agent competently and kept me informed as to progress without my having to chase her. I would recommend her to anybody involved in a housing transaction in the Chinnor or Princes Risborough area.

Efficient and knowledgeable with super fast communication

This is the second time we used Lightfoots for conveyancing and I can only repeat what I said previously. From the moment our matter was taken on, we were in good hands with excellent guidance through the whole process. Short emails straight to the point, quick and concise replies, and yet warm and supportive. Deserving special mention to Melissa Tallon and her team.

I have just completed on a re-mortgage and was assigned Melanie Oxley (Thame Office) to deal with the legal matters on my behalf. I found Melanie to be very professional. She kept me updated throughout the whole process, was prompt in replying to emails and quick to resolve any issues. Working alongside my local solicitor resulted in a smooth completion of the new property I have purchased.

To Litigate or not to Litigate?

This was the second time I found myself needing the services of Lightfoots, as I had a personal litigation matter that needed some delicate handling. Claire Hardy responded to my email right away, requesting more information and a video call meeting followed soon after. Claire was very responsive and understood the delicate situation I was in and advised me how best to proceed and was very professional and patient with me because there was no easy resolution to the matter at hand. In the end I had to put the case on hold and Claire was very supportive and understanding.

Made the process as stress-free as possible

I have and am still using Lightfoots for conveyancing and other matters. With conveyancing currently completed, this review is regarding this. I used Lightfoots for both the sale of a property at one time and buying a property at another. Elise has been amazing. So patient, supportive of my particular situation and speedy when needed! I real pleasure to have someone both so efficient and friendly on your team! Thank you

Just happily completed on my second conveyancing matter with Lightfoots and received another professional, friendly, and efficient service from Lyndsay Netherwood. A stressful time made easy, and I couldn't be more grateful.

Excellent 10/10

The experience from start to finish was made so much easier and less stressful by our solicitor Elise Staples.
We are both grateful for the excellent service, support and calm way in which our sale/purchase was handled. I would recommend Lightfoots 100%.

I would highly recommend Petrova Caldecourt and the team at Lightfoots. Throughout the process I received excellent guidance, clear communication, and a high level of professionalism from start to finish.

Petrova made what could have been a stressful process much easier to navigate, always keeping me informed and explaining matters clearly along the way. I felt supported throughout and very much appreciated the care and attention given to my case.

Thank you again for all your assistance — a genuine five-star service.

They deliver when it matters

I’d rate my experience a 7 out of 10. They completed all the necessary work for my mortgage and property requirements. While it took a little bit of chasing to get things finished, they were reliable and professional throughout the actual legal process. They do good work when it's time to close the deal.
