Thank you Zenub and Mohammed
My partner and I bought our first house and had Zenub as our solicitor. She was always super helpful and professional throughout the process, always explained the steps to us and gave the best advices. We had a few problems close to completion and, if wasn’t for her, the sale would have fallen through. We were super happy and forever thankful!!

Stay away from these guys
I recently reached out to Napthens solicitors to assist with the purchase of a property. From the conveyance quotes I was provided, the only job they had carried out was my ID checks. Then, I asked the conveyor not to carry out any further works because of a problem with the valuation of the property. After I changed my mind about purchasing the property I was sent a bill of £204 for searches (with water, drainage, flood risk and local authority listed on the bill) which I had clearly asked the conveyor not to carry out. When I queried it, she changed her mind and told me the bill was not for the searches but for the time spent corresponding with me and the estate agents. I called several times for clarifications but my calls was directed to the answering machine.
No one told me I will be charged on an hourly basis especially when I had not yet signed a contract.
I appreciate we have had 3 calls but paying almost 20 % of my quote when only ID checks have been carried out is an absolute rip off.
The most annoying part is how fast they switched from being nice to ignoring my calls.
An important lesson I have learnt from this experience is to be wary of solicitors recommended by estates agents. This is a story for another day

Our solicitors of choice.
Napthens have been our solicitors of choice for 20 years. Our one stop shop for all things legal. We have repeatedly received excellent advice and service, including today when we completed on a property sale. Dawn Culshaw and Alice Cowell were excellent, communication and efficiency at its best making the whole process stress free with a remarkably fast exchange and completion. We strongly recommend them.

Excellent property lawyers
Tracey Rostern was excellent when I moved home recently. I would use Napthens again and will recommend them to friends and family.

Outstanding service
My partner and I used Napthens as our conveyancing solicitors, our assigned conveyancing executive Ellie Green has been nothing but amazing from start to finish. As first time buyers we heard so much about people having hard times chasing solicitors and we were dreading it however Ellie was on the ball and always kept us up to date with where the purchase process was up to. I couldn't recommend Ellie highly enough.

Highly recommend Zainab Patel
Zainab managed the purchase of my first property and was nothing short of amazing. I was pressured to move out of my rental property by 14 December and she did everything in her power for completion on this date. I could always get through to Zainab when needed and she always set my expectations and kept me updated throughout. After a previous property falling through this year and another I had to pull out of due to family health issues, I was overdue in putting roots down in my first home and Zainab helped me achieve this, thank you!

Divorce to Litigation.
I must start by saying how professional Napthens Solicitors are.
My case was long and challenging.
I first met Helen Lucking (Head of Family Law) in January 2020. A very knowledgeable and experienced solicitor, most understanding of my situation. She gave me the confidence boost I needed, as we embarked on Divorce proceedings. However, Covid’19 played a huge part in delaying the process. And in mid 2021, unfortunately my husband passed away before the divorce was completed.
I then found myself in semi limbo, until Helen suggested I seek advice from Nicola Turner, Senior Associate in Napthens Litigation team. Also Emma Andersen her colleague, who I first met during my divorce.
I can’t speak highly enough of their tact and skill in handling my Litigation case. Nicola is decisive yet encouraging and we moved forward to successfully secure and achieve a positive outcome.
After almost 3 years I feel I have closure.
So a huge thank-you to Helen, Nicola and Emma for all their help, support and reassurance throughout.
Both departments work was faultless.
It’s important to have confidence in the people who represent you. With prompt reply’s to emails and phone calls, giving informed updates from start to finish.
Without hesitation I would recommend Napthens Solicitors.

Superb conveyancing customer service…
Superb conveyancing customer service from Sally and Greg: always answered our questions clearly and concisely; always returned our calls / emails; always moved the process along at a brisk pace, including robust progress chasing of other parties. The app was informative, always up to date reflecting the latest state of play. All in all we had the best conveyancing experience, so we have nothing but praise to give and would recommend, great job, thank you - Doug & Tracy

Excellent Service and Communication
During a recent sale and purchase of property, Amy Leslie, Lauren Barnes and team from the Kendal office were incredibly helpful. They answered our calls, replied to our emails in a timely manner, and chased the relevant parties when required. We would definitely use Napthens again and cannot recommend them enough. The app is also very useful during the process. Thanks, Chris

Outstanding service from Andy Vincent and Charlotte Shanks
Outstanding service from Andy Vincent and Charlotte Shanks at the Southport office. Following multiple property sales for us over 7 months, they never put a foot wrong. It was far from plain sailing - yet they refused to be flustered or rushed. It's exactly what you need during the conveyancing process.
We've dealt with numerous conveyancing lawyers over the years. We've always been disappointed and thought all the industry was like that.
The communication and updating systems they have in place were outstanding. It's rare to get the chance to connect with a legal team in this manner. In fact, every Napthen's member of staff we came in contact with was great.
Highly recommended.

Exceptional customer service
Blackburn Office
Rachael and Jessica helped me navigate a challenging sale of a leasehold property. I could always telephone for an update on progress or advice and I was kept in the loop at all stages. Thank you!

Great Service.
Napthens were amazing with our tricky conveyancing case, there was a tight deadline to achieve and I am quite the worrier, asking a million questions. Gareth Jones deal with my cases and I cannot recommend his services highly enough, he was calm, collected, direct and informative. Just what I needed during a stressful time like moving house. Thank you.

Another great experience using Natasha…
Another great experience using Natasha and Charlotte at the Napthens Southport branch. Natasha dealt with the sale of my house around two years ago, and when it was time to purchase my new house this year, I didn’t hesitate in requesting Natasha as my lawyer again. Both Natasha and Charlotte were very efficient and kept me informed at all times. Can’t recommend enough!

I wish to thank and recommend Michelle and Rob from the Southport office who looked after the conveyancing of my old and new houses (the new house is a new build so more complicated). They have kept me informed throughout the process even with many building delays. Sorting out unexpected problems as they arose on top of the regular conveyancing.

Excellent service for house purchase
Excellent service from Wendy (Kendal branch) for a recent house purchase. Handled in an expeditious manner - completed within 10 weeks. Would have been even quicker but for a vendor solicitor change.
