“Karen Middleton acted for the purchase of our G2 listed property. Throughout the process she was extremely professional, diligent and effective. She was careful to protect us with indemnity cover to negate possible future claims for long standing works to the house. She gave us valuable and excellent advice that helped avoid penalties for late completion. A force for good, she was consistent and easy to understand. Our purchase was fraught with difficulty, complicated and at times frustrating. She remained calm, supportive and focused. You should use SE and Karen if you want a first class service.”

“Karen and Helen were outstanding, they came highly recommended and didn’t disappoint. They say that when you’ve used one solicitors you likely will not switch. This is very much true in this case!”

“I have ridden the rocky conveyancing road around twenty times in the last decade and can confidently say that your responsiveness is unmatched, a sentiment echoed by Giles the estate agent. It’s not all about speed. There were some tricky issues relating to the property which you explained well.”
Charles, Lashlake Property Ltd, 2024
“I would like to thank you and your team for firstly your patience and secondly your support in purchasing the land at Holt Farm. We would not have got this over the line without your involvement. I will from time to time let you know how we are proceeding with the planning and the build, and I would be glad to work with you on the future requirements.”
Fraser Reid, Cyber-Weld

House buying can be fraught with challenges and you have made the purchase so easy and stress free. Your communication skills are excellent – always keeping me updated with very clear directions. I will and have been recommending you to anyone buying or selling a house.”

“Karen Middleton was exceptionally efficient from start to finish. I purchased a new build and we exchanged contracts easily within the builder’s deadline. The whole process was stress free and on completion day I picked up the keys before 11am. Good job!”

“A big thanks and appreciation for all the hard work and expertise from Karen Middleton in handling our conveyancing. The task was complex, involving overage deeds (no, me neither) and difficulties with family members’ demands. Karen sailed through it all efficiently and kept us informed along the way, leaving us confident that we were glad to have her acting for us over a long drawn out period resulting in a satisfactory outcome.”

Google Review 2023
“I purchased a plot of land for a self-build property in the North-East. Finding a firm for conveyancing was tricky. Many firms said they could, but I soon learned they didn’t have the competency. SE-Solicitors came to the rescue, and were knowledgeable about such transactions. At every step of the way, Karen provided precise instructions and communication was open. She followed up in a timely manner to keep things moving. SE-Solicitors were patient as the transaction took longer than expected due to the purchase being tied to approved planning permission. Despite the complexity, I couldn’t have asked for a more painless process. For me, SE-Solicitors was a safe pair of hands.”
