"I used SMR Solicitors for both a sale and purchase. The whole process from beginning to end was handled professionally. Jannette Luker took care of the conveyancing for both. Moving home is stressful however with SMR I never felt there would be a problem that Jannette could not solve. I would thoroughly recommend this company."

"We dealt with Emma Kelly in the Chichester office and are so pleased with how professional, hard working and quick she was throughout the whole process of our move. We would never use any other solicitors. Thank you so much for making this daunting and stressful process so easy!"

"I mostly worked with Caroline Barnes. She is compassionate, professional, approachable and fills one with confidence. She takes her time to explain procedures, so that the person fully understands what it being said. I cannot praise her highly enough. I unreservedly recommend the SMR Solicitors branch in Selsey."
