Highly recommend Sharon...warm and practical in approach. Extremely accessible and responded even out of hours. I appreciated the fact that we kept things to the point, which helped manage costs when outside influences could have caused further confusion and delay

Excellent service, would definitely recommend. We used Cocks Lloyds for 3 recent house transfers, and although stressful at times, Julie Masters, Sarah Collins with Preeti in support, were fantastic. Julie is very experienced and very streetwise, always ahead of the curve. We would definitely use them again, thanks to Julie and the team for getting us over the line!

I recently used Cocks Lloyd Solicitors for the sale of my property and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Julie Masters and her team were incredibly professional, responsive, and supportive throughout the entire process. Their expertise and attention to detail gave me real peace of mind, and they made sure everything progressed smoothly and on time.

A special thank you to Sarah Collins, who was outstanding in her role. Her efficiency, clear communication, and regular updates made a big difference. She was always quick to respond to any questions I had and explained each step in a way that was easy to understand.

I highly recommend Cocks Lloyd for anyone looking to sell their property. The level of service I received was exceptional. Thank you again to Julie, Sarah, and the whole team.

Great service. Efficient. quick, and Matt explained very well what he needed to do to check everything was correct. Would highly recommend for the service we used. Wills and estates.
We visited here as part of Guide Dog fundraising. The solicitors have opted to support Guide Dogs for the year. We took a 16 week old Guide Dog puppy in training and a 9 year GD Buddy Dog.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming and loved meeting the Guide Dogs

I baught a residential property using cocks llyods as my conveyancer, the person looking after me was Sarah Payne, she was so amazing to work with, responded to my e-mails promptly and informed me of everything required before I had to do it, she also did some perfect work with the duedilligance making sure I got everything I wanted and more.
I could not recommend her more she helped ture a stressful process into something that was quit agreeable, and I also had some help form the receptionists who helped make sure payments went through well and that I was doing things right.
The price was also very competitive being well over £100 below a quote from one of there competitors.
