Thackray Williams Omdömen 

We had a very positive experience with Thackray Williams when purchasing our new-build property from Redrow. Although the firm was recommended by Redrow, Zoe and Abbie were professional, thorough and clearly acted in our best interests throughout. They handled the conveyancing with great attention to detail and were always prompt and clear in their communication. We felt well supported during the whole process and would happily recommend them.

I cannot recommend Zoe & Thackray Williams highly enough. From the moment I instructed them to handle the sale of my flat, she was professional, efficient, and proactive throughout the entire process.

When average timeframes of being moved are well into the 6 month mark, Zoe was proactive and with her experience made it possible to be done well within 3 months.

Her communication was excellent and Zoe & the team kept me updated at every stage, responded to queries promptly, and explained everything clearly, making a big move and potentially stressful experience feel straightforward and well managed!

Thank you so much for such a quick, positive experience. An exceptional service from start to finish! X

A huge thank you to Georgia and the entire team at Thackray Williams for ensuring our part-exchange transaction progressed as smoothly as possible.
While the process initially appeared straightforward, it became significantly more complex when our new-build developer requested the removal of certain clauses relating to our existing property. This required considerable effort, expertise, and persistence from Georgia and her colleagues, who handled the matter professionally and efficiently throughout.
One aspect that particularly stood out was the team's exceptional continuity of service. Whenever a member of the team was on annual leave, there was always a colleague available to provide support and updates. As a result, we never experienced any delays or felt that progress had stalled, which gave us great confidence during what can often be a stressful process.
From the sale of our previous home to the acquisition of our beautiful new property, the entire journey was managed with professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail. In all honesty, I rarely leave reviews for solicitors, and my previous experiences have often fallen short of expectations, with communication and progress sometimes lagging behind. However, Thackray Williams completely changed that perception.
Georgia and her team were proactive, approachable, and highly knowledgeable, consistently keeping us informed and ensuring that matters moved forward smoothly.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Thackray Williams to anyone looking for a reliable and professional solicitor to assist with the purchase, sale, or part-exchange of a property. Their service was truly first-class, and we are extremely grateful for their support throughout our home-moving journey.

Efficient prompt reliable service. Good communication at all stages of purchase from Zoe and her team, reasonable conveyancing fees. Would highly recommend

We had an excellent experience with Thackray Williams throughout our remortgage and Help to Buy equity loan redemption.

Our case involved several moving parts and tight deadlines, but from start to finish the team remained professional, responsive and reassuring. A special thank you to Liz, whose knowledge and calm approach gave us confidence throughout the process. She kept us updated, worked closely with all parties involved and made sure everything stayed on track.

We would also like to thank Robyn for his excellent support. He was always polite, efficient and quick to respond, keeping us informed and ensuring that every stage of the transaction progressed smoothly. His communication and attention to detail were greatly appreciated.

Thanks to the hard work of the team, our remortgage and Help to Buy redemption were completed successfully within the required timeframe. Even after completion, they continued to keep us informed and handled all post-completion matters professionally.

We are truly grateful for all the support we received and would not hesitate to recommend Thackray Williams to anyone looking for knowledgeable, reliable and professional conveyancing solicitors.

The entire Thackray Williams team has been wonderfully efficient throughout the entire purchasing process. Marcus, in particular, offered stellar support -- always willing to go to extra mile to help clarify things and outline next steps. Thank you!

Marcus has been fantastic throughout my house buying process! He kept me updated throughout and ensured the whole process ran smoothly and quickly for me. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the future!

We were very happy with the service received from Thackray Williams. During the long process of buying a Redrow apartment which took over a year from start to finish, the team have been extremely helpful, understanding & kept us up-to-date & in the loop with the process. Big thank you to Marcus, Emily & Lucy for assisting us in this matter.
Many thanks Mr & Mrs Nicholls

I cannot recommend Marcus at Thackray Williams highly enough. Throughout the sale of my house, he was incredibly helpful, professional, and supportive every step of the way.

The advice given was always clear and reassuring, and he took the time to explain everything thoroughly, making what can often be a stressful process feel as straightforward as possible. Communication was excellent throughout, and I always felt confident that my sale was in safe hands.

What really stood out was his willingness to go above and beyond to ensure everything progressed as smoothly as possible. Their dedication, attention to detail, and commitment to providing outstanding service made all the difference.

Thank you for making the sale of my home such a positive experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to use your services again or recommend you to others!

Struggle to believe some of these reviews?
I had an incredible experience with the sell of my property, extremely efficient, same day response to emails - if I ever requested a call, I was given a time.

Marcus and his team were very efficient and got the job done.

I agree with some of the comments that the money laundering checks were extremely intrusive and exhausting, but I do believe that's on the Government rather than TW themselves - so I believe would be the same with any good solicitor.

However bottom line - strongly recommend and will continue to use for incoming purchase.

The conveyancing itself was efficient, and we received a very comprehensive information pack.

However, there was often a reluctance to return calls. Also, the proof of funds was unnecessarily intrusive and extremely time consuming. I understand the legal requirements but it was very stressful to go through.

overcharged and solicitor never had my back

DO NOT USE! Charge you borderline all your money without completion

Used them for 4+ years (2020 - 2025) and it has been a very good experience overall for Divorce and Family matters especially with the onboarding of GG who was a very sharp young man armed with arsenal of Barristers that ingeniously destroy opponents in a very classy way - no arrogancy! His presentations of court documents are clean, logically arranged, write-ups, counsel and advocacies in the fields of Divorce and Child matters were second to none in my case. Very pleasant mannerism, professional, down-to-earth, great listening techniques, and will set expectations realistically. GG for me just really gets it! Customers' needs and outcomes are priority to him! While this firm is not cheap (rates like City firms) but their family service is the best that I have used. The management team are very approachable and they will assist you if there are any type of issues arranging calls with you etc. I highly recommend Thackray William Solicitors!

In a world of slow and inattentive people and companies, Thackray Williams stands out. Whilst pricer than other greater London firms, they are the only firm I have ever used who pick up the phone, call you because its more efficient, and respond to emails (on the same day!) in conveyancing transactions.

They are generally pragmatic, methodical and organised which is a breath of fresh air in an industry (property) which is yet to catch up to the 21st century.

Special thanks to Manaal R and Louise B who have exceeded many expectations of how solicitors should operate on several occasions over the years I have used this firm though I have had a pleasant experience with many more in the firm.

Lee-Ann Diaz was very helpful today certifying documents and answering questions on probate matters. Highly recommended! Thank you.

Whilst staff is friendly when speaking to them initially, we were very disappointed by their lack of communication around fees. The firm did not follow the procedure that they laid out in their Terms of Business, but came up with an additional invoice of almost £1,500 out of the blue for work done months earlier that wasn't communicated at the time. The issue was then handled rudely by simply ignoring our concerns and threatening us.

Please read all the one star reviews .From my own personal experience and you couldn't possiibly make it up as this company are an utter shambles and a disgrace.I used them to sell a property and to try and buy a property and to draw up a will and they were hopeless in all these departments. I should have learnt from the first instance.They have lost my original Marriage certificate.They have cost me purchasing a property due to a very slow and unresponsive attitude to which I received an email from the estate agent highlighting this fact.Then to compound everything we had a will drawn up by Thackray Williams to which we thought we had fully paid for but later found out this was only a down payment which was over a £1000.With very little time to sort through all this as along the way we had proved that Thackray Williams had missed a payment we had made for £200 and there was no forthcoming apology.We then we received a threatening letter saying that they put a ccj against us and would come after the money owed which was most upsetting to my wife espescially as at that time we were working out what other payments may have been missed by them as we couldn't understand why they were demanding another payment similar to what we had already paid as in our mind we had already fully paid. What I then requested was a break down of what was charged and I got a
one sentence answer with no break down and no payments showing.I then requested again and finally got what I wanted which was the break down with the payments that were made.We then understood that they had charged us far more than we were originally led to believe as it was a variable charge and they charged us the absolute maximum.I then paid them the full amount plus the ccj cost (an extra £160 odd ) and twice I had to chase for a receipt.Thackray Williams should be accountable for their actions and the time my wife and I spent sorting out this mess. As going through statements to prove we had paid the £200 and the letters and emails were all to consuming and stressful not to mention the threatening letters they had sent.

Great service from Claudia and Mel in a recent house sale. Everything was explained clearly and responded to swiftly so I had total confidence in their work. We were supported at every stage and they helped us move from initial offer to completion in 11 weeks. Highly recommend them.

We used Thackray Williams to represent us when purchasing our first home.
Our vendor needed to complete within 6 weeks - Stephanie at Thackray Williams made this possible.
We also used their services for a Declaration of Trust - Caroline helped us complete this document. She was really brilliant.
The prices were very good and reasonable - I would highly recommend.
