Legal Services

At Jeff Horsey Solicitors we are large enough to deliver knowledge and experience and small enough to care. We believe that offering a personal service makes your legal experience more comfortable and productive.

While many other firms are becoming specialised and limited, we remain committed to offering advice across a broad spectrum of areas, whilst providing you with a high level of personal attention. The convenience of being able to deal with the same firm with all the legal issues that concern you ensures your problems are handled with efficiency and sensitivity.

Our services include:

• Buying and selling property
• We can take care of all your conveyancing needs - whether buying, selling, first home, investment or commercial property we can take care of it all. While most conveyances are straight forward transactions strict timeframes do apply particularly in relation to cooling off periods, payments, deposits, building and pest inspections. This means it is vital to get it done right the first time and avoid problems.
  The bulk of your paperwork and legalities fall at the start of property purchase which means it is important to gain representation as soon as you sign the contract. Remember to tell your agent that you want representation from Jeff Horsey Solicitor and they will forward the contract directly to us. This not only speeds up the process but it means we can ensure and protect your interests every step of the way.
