Client

“My experience with Blandy & Blandy's conveyancing department was second to none. Manisha Bhula was just amazing. She has a wonderful calm telephone manner which kept me grounded throughout. I really am so pleased that Manisha was recommended to me she reassured me every stressful step of the way.”

Client

“Excellent service in residential conveyancing. Manisha explained the process and the costs upfront and pointed out to me the things I would need to deal with. Manisha responded immediately to my email questions and when an unusual question arose, spoke with another expert within the firm and resolved it straightaway.”

Client

“I purchased my house and engaged Blandy & Blandy. They were outstanding, so I went back to them when I sold my property and again, they did not disappoint. I dealt with Manisha Bhula, she is so easy to deal with and very thorough. A pleasure to do business with and worth every penny! Thank you Blandy & Blandy.”

Client

“Having found Blandy and Blandy at a very time critical stage in the sale and purchase of residential property, including selling to a developer, we can only confirm how lucky we were to come across them and how happy we now are to recommend them to anyone. The service, from the first introductory phone call with Manisha to successful completion across both properties, was exemplary. Manisha worked tirelessly throughout the process from start to finish on managing both transactions for us.”

Client

“If you want a high quality experience with any property transactions then you need to start by contacting Blandy & Blandy first and then ask for Manisha Bhula next. Thank you greatly for the brilliant service you provided Manisha and Blandy and Blandy from another very satisfied customer!”

Client

“Absolutely fantastic in every way possible. Manisha was on hand every step of the way through our process and got the job done. Very professional and you could tell they wanted to help - it wasn’t just part of their job. Highly recommended and I wish the firm and Manisha all the best for the future. I will always use Blandy & Blandy if and when I need them.”

Client

“The advice, responsiveness and total professionalism throughout was fantastic. The sale was a complex process with multiple parties involved and yet one thing was clear in that Manisha and Blandy & Blandy led all the parties through the desired process and stood head and shoulders above the other legal firm's involved.”

Client

“Manisha worked well above my high expected levels. This team solved problems, like a hot-knife running through butter. I highly recommend them and indeed already have done so to friends and colleagues. ”

Client

“Thank you very much indeed for all your expertise and help in steering this house sale through to a successful conclusion, and for keeping us abreast of each stage in the process. It has been reassuring to feel that we were in safe hands and I am extremely grateful to you.”

Client

“We had real issues with the seller's solicitor and Blandy & Blandy had to single hand-idly spearhead the sale, chasing up the other solicitor and correcting their mistakes. They were relentless in the way they 'battled on' on our behalf and after witnessing this, I don't think I'd ever trust any another solicitor to act on my behalf again - Blandy & Blandy will always be my first port of call.”

Client

“A massive heartfelt thank you to Karen and Manisha, because without them I am confident this sale would have fallen through and we would never have moved into the house of our dreams.”

Client

She's an absolute star, I'll be recommending her without reservation.”

Client

Client

Client

“Manisha delivered an excellent service. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone I know that needs a conveyancing service.”

Client

“I used Blandy & Blandy as the conveyancer for my first house purchase and was very pleased with their service. Manisha and her team were responsive and professional and always took the time to clarify any queries we had. I was particularly impressed with the quality of service given how busy the sector is at the moment due to the SDLT holiday and the fact that our purchase ended up being much more complicated than first anticipated. Great value - I would definitely use the firm again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.”

Client
