I recently engaged Nova to manage my property purchase, and I am delighted to share my positive experience.
From the outset, Zaid provided exceptional support and demonstrated a genuine commitment to ensuring a smooth transaction. The team, led by solicitor Adele, consistently delivered professional advice tailored to my specific needs and circumstances.
What impressed me most was their responsiveness. Every query was addressed promptly, and I never experienced unnecessary delays. Adele's expertise was evident throughout the process, and she took the time to explain complex legal matters in a clear and accessible manner.
Beyond their technical proficiency, the entire team demonstrated a caring approach that made what could have been a stressful process feel manageable and well-supported. Zaid's attentiveness to detail and willingness to go the extra mile truly set them apart.
I would unreservedly recommend Nova to anyone requiring property purchase services. Their combination of professional excellence, prompt communication, and genuine care for their clients' wellbeing makes them an outstanding choice.

I had a smooth property transaction with Sumaiya
I had a smooth property transaction with Nova while buying my new home, mainly dealing with Sumaiya Shabdeen and Kavindya Ratnadasa. Both Sumaiya and Kavindya were very professional and responsive. Sumaiya who I mainly dealt with was excellent at answering my queries promptly and kept me up to date with weekly updates. We managed to exchange contracts in nearly half the usual time.
Highly recommend both. Thank you!

Awful customer service
Awful customer service and lack of communication. Impossible to speak to the 2 conveyancers as always in meetings. Emails received that did not make sense and with simple spelling mistakes. Please be aware and use your local conveyancer

Outstanding service from start to finish
Buying a property is naturally a stressful process, especially as a first-time buyer, but the service I received from Damian and Shaahid was impeccable from start to finish. They really went above and beyond throughout the whole conveyancing process. They worked quickly and efficiently, kept me regularly updated, and explained everything clearly at every stage. The whole process was well laid out from the outset, and their communication was always professional. Any questions I had were answered promptly and thoroughly, both over the phone and by email.
Having such responsive and supportive conveyancers made a huge difference and really helped ease the stress and anxiety that comes with buying a home. I always felt reassured that everything was being handled properly and professionally.
I would highly recommend NOVA LEGAL to anyone, especially first-time buyers looking for reliable, proactive, and supportive conveyancing services.

Absolutely fantastic service
Absolutely fantastic service, regular updates, all laid out very clearly, as FTB we were very worried about what people say about solicitors taking their time with things but Sumaiya Shabdeen and Zahra Mamon where very proactive and easily reachable! We exchanged just over 8 weeks which is just incredible! Both pleasant to speak to as well, which made us much more at ease. We would 100% recommend and will be sure to use Nova again when we move again in the future! Thank you both for everything!
