Leasehold flat purchase with Salima Manji at Notary Express
I used Notary Express for a flat purchase. I was a little apprehensive due to the quote being significantly lower than the high street solicitors in my area but went ahead based on other's reviews. The whole experience was efficient, professional and communication was excellent.
I was dealing with Salima Manji who was absolutely fantastic. Responses to my queries were quick and she was thorough and diligent in all aspects of the process.
I would recommend this firm and more specifically Salima for a great value conveyancing service.
Brilliant Five Star Service!
Just completed a purchase of a commercial property this week and Notary Express were my conveyancing solicitors. From the start to finish it was an absolute pleasure to work with them. Sumera, who was dealing with our case was absolute star, very professional and dedicated! Very fast responses, nothing like previous experiences which I had with other so-called conveyancing firms and their highly unprofessional staff. I will definitely use Notary Express again in the future and can highly recommend their service to anyone who is looking for conveyancing.
Best decision I ever made
I had doubts after a previous poor experience with an online conveyancer, but decided to try out Notary Express after seeing reviews online. Salima Manji was assigned to my case and helped restore the faith I had previously lost. Salimas proactiveness, knowledge, experience and professionalism are exceptional and she is a credit to the conveyancing community. I will definitely be referring anyone possible and would 100% then again should I need to, I just hope its Salima assigned to me again!
Did a fine job thanks 😀
Notary Express did the conveyancing for the sale of a property for me.
A straightforward sale was made awkward by the other party involved but we got there in the end and I couldn’t expect much more from Charlie Bowden in particular.
Always approachable, contactable and offered insights and knowledge to possibilities and scenarios. I was never rushed or palmed-off and Email communication was always forthcoming.
The fee that I paid was very reasonable and as the paperwork stated there maybe disbursements added, but these were minimal and understandable.
So in summary thank you for your service and I have no complaints or reason to not recommend this solicitors.
Excellent service from Charlie Bowden at Notary Express
I don't often write reviews but felt compelled to do so after receiving such outstanding service from Charlie Bowden and Notary Express. The fees were very competitive with no hidden costs.
I am amazed at how quick, problem-free and efficiently the conveyance was completed; all communications were responded to quickly in a helpful and friendly manner by the solicitor Charlie Bowden.
I would strongly recommend Notary Express, especially Charlie Bowden if you are looking to instruct a solicitor to sell/buy your property. Thank you.
Great value, personal service
I was a little worried at first as I have heard many stories about bad solicitors, but I would definitely recommend this service if you are looking for good value. My house purchase took longer than expected and notary Express where there all along. Special mention to Salima, who was an absolute star in picking up my case and helping me to close the purchase just before Christmas. You'd be lucky to have her on your side *****
Excellent service
I have received an excellent service by Notary Express. Their price was very competitive. The communication was great. They always answered all my calls and questions. I was appointed by Laura Gilliam. She was great. I would definitely recommend her and Notary Express.
Ms Salima Manji and the House Sale.
I was selling my house here in East Lancashire to a friend, both without a chain. The conveyancing quotes I received locally were between £850 - £1100!! After a google search I received a number of quotes with Notary Express being the cheapest at an original quote from £500, now myself having suffered for 20 years in various Sales based roles should know better as cheaper is not always better, adding to the fact my assigned Solicitor, Ms Salima Manji was based in Norwich, a mere 195 miles away, I had my doubts, though as I was selling to 'off load' the property it didn't really matter to me.
The sale took longer than expected due to the buyers Conveyancing team dragging their feet, until Salima got stuck into them and got everything sorted out at the 11th Hour! During the sale period (which included the Christmas and New Year no mans land) a quick email over to Salima for an update was always replied to, even if there was no news to give, a reply would be sent to give me piece of mind.
In the end the overall cost of Conveyancing with all fees and a couple of First Class stamps was still cheaper than the other quotes received locally and online, yet I received a top quality service that was simple and straight forward.
I would definitely use Salima and Notary Express again if need be despite the distance between us both.
Notary Express / Razwana Hussain - excellence all round....
I instructed Notary Express to deal with my house purchase as I found their fees to be competetive, sensibly structured and transparent. Upon instruction, I was allocated Razwana Hussain as the solicitor dealing with the purchase. Given that I was a first time buyer, I had an abundance of questions re what to expect and the process that the transaction would follow. Thankfully, Razwana was always available (from early morning to late evenings / weekends) and was always willing to answer any questions that I had. In addition, I found Razwana to be incredibly pro-active to the point where she would often be chasing me for documents or a response to queries raised. Having never heard of Notary Express before instructing them, I was worried about the level of service that I would receive. However, having now completed, I can honestly say that the service provided was one of the best I have ever experienced. Notary Express and Razwana Hussain in particular were fantastic to deal with, always available and helped to make a very stressful time a little less stressful. For that I will always be grateful. So.... if you're ever looking for a solicitor specialising in Conveyancing, look no further than Notary Express... and if you are allocated Razwana as your solicitor, that's an added bonus! Gavin
What can I say other than Fantastic…
What can I say other than Fantastic from start to finish. I can't rate Charlie and Notary Express highly enough.
They take a modern approach to conveyancing and are very pro-active.
By far the best conveynacers I have ever worked with.

I used this company to change the name on my house deeds. I was appointed Laura Gilliam as my solicitor, and she was very efficient and contactable, even though the transfer was not as easy as it could have been due to a third parties involvement. The price I was quoted was the price I paid. I couldn’t be more happier with my experience and highly recommended.

Just completed our transaction with Louise and found the whole process very easy and surprisingly quick. I would not hesitate in recommending her to other Clients.
completed in 20 days
we had to find a solicitor at short notice and to get all the legal work done quickly over the christmas period , very few could accomadate our requirements.
We are very pleased with Notary Express and the appointed solicitor to us ( Laura ). She was very good at explaining what we needed to do and was always quick at responding to emails or phone calls. Everything was completed on time and we would certainly recommend Notory Express
I used Notary Express for the purchase of my flat
I used Notary Express for the purchase of my flat and Zoe was very professional, competent and efficient. She calmed me down when I got stressed and I always felt that I was in very safe, secure hands. She worked hard and updated me throughout the process. She made the whole process much less stressful! I will definitely use Notary Express again in the future!

I have used Notary Express for a transfer of equity. I found all the staff especially Louise very helpful and always willing to answer any questions. It was a longer process than I expected however, this did not affect the level of service I received throughout. I was so impressed that I had no hesitation instructing to act on my behalf for a new house purchase. I would thoroughly recommend Louise and her team.
I felt I needed to write a review
I felt I needed to write a review, something that I very rarely do. Charlie Bowden has been excellent, not only did she deal with everything quickly but she was always available to take my call or come back to me quickly. I can’t fault the service or value for money. Thank you Charlie!

Charlie Bowden was a great partner to help selling my home. Empathic and understanding, communicative and through. Thank you.
Thank you, Louise
I want to express my heartfelt thanks to Louise Pugh in the Norwich office. Louise acted as our Independent Legal Advisor when we were arranging a Lifetime Mortgage. The lender's solicitors were very taxing to deal with but Louise did not waver in her determination to see matters through. Thank you, Louise.
All mortgages are equal, but some mortgages are more equal than others.
All mortgages are equal, but some mortgages are more equal than others. The HSBC Indirect Legal Mortgage is unique in that no other Mortgage Provide offers this type of mortgage (sole borrower, joint owner) and you might only realise this when it’s first set up or if you later wish to make a transfer of equity or minor alterations to the Title Deeds.
In either case time is always a valuable commodity so it’s worthwhile checking your solicitor is familiar with the rather long winded HSBC process before you appoint them.
Fortunately, this is one of the many feathers in Louise Pugh’s cap and she’ll guide and update you expertly through every step of the process.
Including the fee and all the final disbursements NOTARY EXPRESS services were very competitively priced and for me I believe the best value for money. All in all, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend NOTARY EXPRESS or Louise in the future.
Louise is fantastic.
Louise provided a fantastic service every step of the way. Her communication was excellent, assisted with any query I had and made a painstakingly difficult process much easier. I thank her for her patience and positivity! I would definitely recommend her and Notary Express to anyone requiring their services.
