My partner and I recently purchased our very first home with the help of Dunn and Bakers Solicitors. We were both, self admittedly, completely naïve to the entire process of purchasing a home and slightly in over our heads. Fortunately, our solicitor Harry helped us every step of the way and I cannot recommend him enough. His approachable demeanour meant we felt comfortable asking him any (and several) questions and Harry was happy to help, which he did so in a timely and efficient way. Harry’s clear expertise meant he was able to explain everything to us in a way we understood and we felt greatly supported throughout the entire process. We both feel very appreciative of Harry and would not hesitate to recommend his services to anybody, thank you again!

Throughout you have been personable, efficient and supportive – your attentive responses and support have been greatly appreciated at an otherwise difficult time. We would not hesitate to recommend your services in the future to others requiring conveyancing assistance.

“Thanks again for all of your help over the last 17 months. It’s been a sorry episode, a real emotional roller coaster and one that I’m relieved to have finally behind me. Your assistance, guidance, tolerance and humour has been greatly appreciated.”

“The whole procedure was quick and easy and conducted in a professional but friendly manner… in my opinion, no improvement is necessary.”

” In difficult circumstances (i.e. Covid lockdown), the property was taken off then [put] back on the market etc. but [they] stayed very professional.”

Quick to respond to queries

I would like to share my recent experience of making the best choice possible in appointing Darren Cleverdon of Dunn and Baker to deal with my divorce.

For anyone yet to undergo this fraught and stressful experience I would say look no further than D & B; from the first consultation to the ultimate successful conclusion over a period of 18 difficult months Dunn and Baker “ cared”, the advice, procedure and actions were consistently proved correct. I was really in safe hands from day one without appreciating it at the time.

I would offer the highest recommendation possible without hesitation, and my thanks to Darren and his team for his strength, moral support and wisdom throughout.

Professional, committed
