We have no hesitation in recommending Ian Peach and Samantha Kidd of Knights Solicitors, Portsmouth. They were diligent, professional, and always available whenever we had queries or complex paperwork to sort out. Their attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile made the entire process much smoother.

Great service, my solicitor was so helpful, understanding and kind. Very personal in his approach to my circumstances relating to my home sale
Would certainly use their services again.

Read the small print very carefully. Just had a very bad experience with their fee structure. They charge in 0.06 minute increments, as an example I sent a text to a solicitor and got charged £39:00 + VAT for the privilidge. Several emails back and forth you will be charged for every single one of them. Complaints procedure a waste of time as it's all in the terms you send them. Ruthless company.

From our initial conversation with Louise Jones we knew we were going to be in safe-hands with an experienced team well versed in complex transactions involving listed properties. It must be said that our lead Conveyancer, Jordan Oakes, was superb throughout. A very effective communicator keeping us fully up-dated at all times. Thank you!

Having used Knights both for selling our old property and buying our new one this year, we have nothing but the highest regard for Rachel and Dagmara, who were always calm, friendly and responsive to every situation that arose. Would recommend them to anyone who wants the best advice and most professional of services.

Well, I have just completed the purchase of my property with Knights Professional services acting on my behalf. What could have been an incredibly stressful time, I could not praise them highly enough and I am still surprised at how smoothly the process went. Everything was explained carefully and all my questions were answered. I will have no hesitation recommending their services to family and friends. I would like to mention Fiona Tapp AND Gethin Lloyd in particular. The phone call I received at 14.07pm on the 29th September to say the deal was done & I owned my property could not have been sweeter. So thanks to you both for your professional service.

I would like to say a big thank you in particular to Manny and Heather. Selling a property is very stressful, I had no idea. But both Manny and Heather helped me every step of the way. When I couldn't understand what was needed, literally talking me through various questions to updating me each step of the way. I know there are firms that may charge less, but I will never regret choosing to use Knights. I felt like my case mattered, and I always had an email or telephone reply the same day if not in a mater of an hour or two. And I would like to add extra big thank you when toward the end of the process the other side was being difficult and unreasonable. Manny and Heather allowed me to express my anxiety and were very reassuring. And the icing on the cake was that they somehow managed to complete on the day that I needed them to! I would recommend Knights to anyone, in particular Manny and Heather. They will look after you, as they did me. Kindest regards, Sandra Bonasso

It's so rare to discover a professional service that gets it right in all aspects.
My sister and I engaged Emma Walker-D'Cruze to help us with a challenging house sale while she was working for Rix & Kay, which was acquired shortly afterwards by Knights.
She is not only a thorough and efficient professional, but also exceedingly personable and courteous.
Emma helped us through a challenging period in a calm, professional - yet human and sensitive - way.
We were especially grateful to her for invariably reacting promptly to developments and keeping us informed - something notably absent in the experience of friends and family.
Total fees came in only slightly over the estimate (as she had warned us they might), but it was worth it for the piece of mind her assured - and reassuring - manner gave us.
I will not hesitate to engage Emma - and Knights - in the future.

We have recently completed a new build purchase and we were advised by Kirsten Wickham at Knights, on recommendation from the developer Wyatt Homes. We have been entirely satisfied with Kirsten's support and advice, which included navigating one or two challenges in our buying chain. Communication was excellent throughout.

The service provided by Jodie and her team (at the Portsmouth branch) was outstanding. They could not have been more helpful in making our house purchase as easy as possible. They get top marks - 10/10!

My wife’s stepmother was Knights’ client. She had a will drawn up in 2020 and stored it at the solicitor’s “strong room”. She died but Knights have lost the will. For probate we need a letter from Knights acknowledging they lost the will but they just ignore our requests. They won’t answer this because I’m not a paying customer, sadly their customer is dead but they’ve left a big mess for us! Just common decency should apply, they have created the problem, help us fix it.

A huge thank you to Charlotte Goodson and Lucy McKenna from Knights for their amazing support throughout the whole process! 🤍
They made everything smooth and stress-free, guiding us with professionalism and care from start to finish. Communication with them was excellent, always clear, friendly, and prompt.
We’re so grateful for all their help and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and efficient solicitors!

We are really grateful to have Julia Suarez of its Exeter office as our solicitor helping us through to complete our first time property purchase in the UK. Her professional knowledge in the real estate industry combining with Knights’ supporting team are making the whole transaction moving forward very smoothly, and meeting our target completion date in a timely manner. We would not hesitate to recommend both Julia and Knights to anyone who is looking for legal services in buying or selling property in the UK.

We recently sold a flat and were guided by Joanne Robinson. She made the whole process easy, was very friendly, professionally and diligent. The communication with her was very good, she kept us constantly informed and was extremely quick to respond to any queries. I can highly recommend her.

When we sold a property several years ago, our buyer used Angela Arnold at Rix & Kay in Brighton. We were very impressed with her professional can-do approach and when we had another property in the same building to sell, we appointed Angela and her team to act for us. It proved to be a wise decision as there have been a number of hurdles along the way. That included Rix & Kay being merged into Knights. Angela brought Charles Hincks in to her team to manage the process and liaise with the buyer’s legal team. Charles has been diligent and responsive and capably brought the sale to a successful conclusion today. We have no hesitation in recommending Angela’s team, and in particular Charles. We will certainly engage her team again.

I have used Thursfield and latterly Knights to sell 2 properties and purchase 2 properties over the last 5 years. I would use them every time, as they are approachable, friendly and professional in all their contacts. Helen Martin-Bell has guided me through the last purchase and sale of a property and has provided an exceptional service. She has been so patient when I did not understand and kind in her approach. I could not have asked for a more empathetic solicitor. Thanks to all the staff. I will definitely be in touch when I next need conveyancing services.

Brilliant service from start to finish. House sale and purchase can be immensely stressful - for a host of reasons. To have a calm, diligent, responsible legal team “batting for you”, as we had with Sharon Jordan and Philippa Jacks as our lead contacts, ably supported by Georgia Driver was hugely beneficial.
We felt at all times that they really cared as demonstrated by their regular contact, both by telephone and email. We were never left in any doubt that their finger was firmly on the pulse.
We use Knights plc Nottingham for other legal aspects and can absolutely confirm that as a company their professionalism is without peer, and attention to detail exemplary. A really great legal firm to deal with. Well done, all!
