Thanks to Sam, Elisha, Nicola and Georgia-Ray for all your help.
I would use this company again and recommend them without hesitation.

As a Executor of a Will that's never done anything like this before, all paper work for the sale of the property was all done and dusted in 4 months and the property finalised. As the seller of the property you have to show the buyer exactly what they are getting as in furnishings and white goods if any, it can look daunting but Goddard Dunbar walked us all through it. So I've decided to use them again in the purchase of my own property.

Excellent professional service.

I have recently experienced the loss of my beloved father. Goddard and Dunbar assigned me with a lovely probate practitioner who helped and supported me from the start of the process until the very last moment. They offer such a excellent professional service and I honestly couldn't have got through one of the hardest life events without them, specifically Olivia.
I would recommend them to anyone!!

Superb service by Jess

My dad recently passed away and we instructed Goddard Dunbar to do the probate for us.
We dealt with Jessica from the Stoke branch. Jess was so helpful from locating mums death certificate and doing a will search. She was a true star in difficult times so a big thank you from all the family.
Cost wise we thought it was good value for money and stopped any stress.
Thanks Jess Neil and Ian

Goddard Dunbar took up the reins for us…

Goddard Dunbar took up the reins for us when we had to dispense with the services of a solicitor who was out of her depth.
Selling a property that is in trust is not straightforward but young Elliot simplified the whole process for us. His work ethic was professional for all of his work and communications with us. I cannot find fault with anything. He was polite and courteous and a pleasure to work with. Thank you.
I would like to thank Goddard and Dunbar as a company for acting on our behalf.
Our estate agents were very impressed and have said they will happy to recommend Goddard Dunbar should any of their future sales are in Trust.

★★★★★ Outstanding Professional Support During a Difficult Time

I cannot thank Abbi enough for the support and professionalism she showed while helping me deal with matters relating to my late father’s estate. This has been an incredibly emotional and difficult time for me, but Abbi handled everything with great care, patience, and understanding.

Her guidance throughout the process was clear, reassuring, and highly professional. She took the time to explain things properly and was always responsive whenever I had questions or needed reassurance. Her compassion and respectful approach made a situation that felt overwhelming much easier to manage.

I am truly grateful for the help and support she provided and would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone needing a knowledgeable, reliable, and empathetic legal professional.

Despite Stephen's comments, Goddard Dunbar are still instructed to act on his behalf in this matter. Whilst dealing with this matter Stephen raised a complaint which was thoroughly investigated and as a result his complaint was not upheld. Stephen was not satisfied with this outcome and he has therefore been directed by Goddard Dunbar to the Legal Ombudsman. Stephen has escalated his complaint to the Legal Ombudsman which will be investigated by them. Goddard Dunbar will report the Legal Ombudsman’s findings when they become available and comment accordingly.

Conveyancing made easy by Emily

My mum recently sold a property via Emily at Goddard Dunbar. The service was super smooth and she was kept informed every step along the way. Emily even checked in when they were awaiting reports etc so stop her from worrying. Second time using the conveyancing services and would definitely recommend.

I had occasion recently to use Goddard Dunbar to help in the execution of a relative's estate.
The service provided was first rate, very professional. All of the staff I had contact with were warm, friendly and a credit to their profession.
Would certainly recommend.

We were recommended Goddard & Dunbar by…

We were recommended Goddard & Dunbar by our mortgage broker when starting the process of buying our first house, and everything from start to finish was wonderful. Danielle Rushton and team dealt with our conveyancing, and I cannot recommend enough. As first time buyers and never using solicitors before, we were unsure of what to expect, however we were updated daily via email and sent everything we needed and more. Everything was made very simple and we were reassured throughout the whole process, and Danielle was always happy to help and simplify everything for me when needed. We understand things can differ for everyone, however we put our original offer in on our home on the 7th July and instructed Goddard & Dunbar to proceed on the 16th July and we have now completed, and agreed on exchanging on the 19th September.

All in all I would highly recommend to anyone looking to buy their first home or moving house in general as the service provided by Goddard & Dunbar, particularly Danielle Rushton herself was perfect.

Moving to our dream home

We recently used Goddard Dunbar to act on our behalf in our house move and they were fantastic.
Carole, Danielle, Lilly, Jennifer and the rest of the team really looked after us and put our minds at rest during what would otherwise have been a much more stressful time. Despite another area of the chain being much less responsive our team always responded to us really quickly and I trust that they acted on our behalf with integrity, professionalism and grace.
Thank you to them all and we will definitely use the firm again for any needs which we have in the future. We have already recommended them to friends and family.
