Brilliant service.

Buying a home can be very stressful but my property purchase using Newtons was so straightforward. I was kept informed at each stage of the process. All questions were answered diligently and in a timely manner. Nothing was too much trouble. My main contact Abbi was a delight t on work with. She was extremely knowledgeable and professional. This made the transaction stress free. Well done to Abbi and Harry. All your hard work was much appreciated. Same surname but no relation to the company

Morning Mr Newton(!)
With such a fine surname I wouldn't expect you to go anywhere else.

Can’t fault the conveyancing department

We recently used newtons for a sale and purchase. The conveyancing team is superior to any we have used previously. The process was smooth and progressed quickly from start to finish.

On behalf of myself and my husband, we would like to specifically thank Emma and Olivia for their professional service. Hopefully we won’t be moving anytime soon, but when the times comes we wouldn’t hesitate to use Newtons again.

Carolyn Greenwood conveyancing

Instructed solicitor Carolyn Greenwood and her team Sophie Ward and Kelly Teal on a property sale conveyancing. Clear and fair costs with excellent service. Easy contact and communication with good legal expertise. Would use again and recommended.

Fantastic Service

We’ve been working with Emma and Olivia from Newton’s Darlington branch for several months now during our recent property purchase. Throughout the process, they have consistently been helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable—even during some challenging times. We couldn’t have asked for better service and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

Superb Service

I contacted a few conveyancers following the sale, at auction, of my property. It's now apparent that a 28-day completion on a leasehold property is undesirable to say the least - those who I reached out to either refused from the outset or quoted a vastly inflated fee. That all changed when I contacted Kelly at Newtons. She didn't bat an eyelid at the required timeframe and the proposed conveyancing fee was very reasonable.
I was nervous about the 28-day deadline ticking away, but I needn't have worried - Kelly (as well as Carolyn and Sophie) had everything covered. When it came to completion day, the purchaser attempted to delay - Kelly handled the situation with the utmost professionalism and by the end of business the buyer decided to play ball and complete as per the contract.
I am a very happy customer and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kelly and her team to anyone.

Thorough and attentive

Newtons provided a thorough and attentive conveyancing service for a leasehold sale that had some measure of complexity. Their charges seemed very reasonable for the security of knowing the transfer was in good hands.

Thoroughly professional in all aspects…

Thoroughly professional in all aspects of the conveyancing process: this is why all my family return to Mr Howard Meynell and his team at Newtons when purchasing property. Communication was fast and accurate, queries answered without delay and the whole process supported with patience and the attitude of being on the customer's side.
Buying a new home is a lot less stressful when you know you're in safe hands! Thank you, Howard and your team.

First Time Buyer

I was a first time buyer and had no idea what I was doing or how the process worked. I went with Newton's after looking at several solicitors and I'm soo glad I did. I worked with Sarah Bell (with support from Jessica), who was excellent! She kept me continuously informed throughout the entire process and answered any questions I had.
Thank you so much Sarah! 😊

Gold standard - excellent

Newtons Solicitors are an excellent conveyancing Solicitors firm offering efficient and professional lines of communication from start to finish. I had the delight of Emma W (Director Solicitor) and Olivia E (Paralegal) who worked on my case - both absolutely superb. Both made themselves available to me if i needed to speak with either of them and carried out what they said they were going to do when they said they were going to do it.. Will be using again and would highly recommend both the firm and the individuals. 10/10 experience

Excvellent attention from Emma and Olivia

Emma and Olivia between them provided us with frequent updates, along with prompt responses to any queries arising during our house sale and purchase. Emma also gave valuable advice regarding some issues which arose, and acted in our best interests at all times. We would not hesitate to recommend Newtons for conveyancing.
