Conveyancing with a personal touch

Conveyancing Lawyers Cambridge

Buying, selling or re-mortgaging a property is one of life’s biggest milestones – and it’s not something you should have to navigate on your own. Our conveyancing lawyers are based right here in Cambridge, and from day one you’ll have direct phone access to the person actually handling your case. No call centres, no being passed between departments, no chasing a stranger for updates.

We know property transactions can feel stressful, especially with so much riding on getting it right. That’s why we aim to give you clear, straightforward advice at every step – no confusing jargon, no vague timelines, just honest answers to your questions when you need them.

Every property is different, and so is every transaction. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, moving up the ladder, selling on, or re-mortgaging, the details of your case will shape how we work and what it costs. That’s why we can’t give you a one-size-fits-all price upfront – conveyancing fees vary depending on the specifics of your situation.

To get things moving, just fill in the form with as much detail as you can. One of our lawyers will personally get back to you with a clear estimate of costs, tailored to your transaction.

Tell us a bit about your move and we’ll get back to you with a clear, fixed-fee quote — no hidden extras, no guesswork. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we do a thing.

Terms of business and ID checks

Once you’re happy to go ahead, we’ll send over our terms and run the ID checks we’re legally required to do. It’s quick, it’s routine, and it means we can crack on with your case straight away.

Enquiries and Searches

We dig into the details — local authority checks, drainage, environmental searches, and raise questions to the seller’s lawyer. This is where we catch anything that could cause problems down the line, before it becomes your problem. If we are acting for the seller then during this period we will be replying to enquiries raised by the buyer’s lawyer.

Exchange

This is the moment it becomes official. Contracts are signed and swapped, a completion date is locked in, and there’s no backing out from here — so we make sure everything’s watertight before we get to this point.

Completion

Moving day. The money moves, the keys are released, and the property is officially yours. We’ll handle the final legal steps so all you need to think about is unpacking the boxes.
