| Gillian's clients' testimonials speak for themselves
"Gillian Sandford is simply the best Conveyancing Solicitor. We have bought and sold 5 houses with Gillian representing us and the most recent (this week completion) was far from simple. Gillian's communication with us as her client, solicitors representing who we're buying from us and we were buying from and both sets of estate agents kept our complex sale alive when our first sale fell through. Gillian's attention to detail, 'nothing is too much trouble' attitude and handover with her colleagues when on annual leave makes people want to work with her time and time again. There's a reason Gillian is so busy and has a great Team of colleagues who work with her and that's because she treats you like you are the only case she's working on and to be honest like you're a friend. She works with your best interests at heart. Always honest, even if you may not like the answer to make sure you go in to transactions with your eyes wide open. We can not recommend Gillian and her Team of colleague's highly enough. Superb company."
Miss H, Leeds
"Great service from Levi Solicitors. We used Gillian Sandford in 2013 when we bought a building plot. Then used Google to find her again. We have just completed today on the sale of our cottage on North Norfolk. It all went very smoothly and the money was in our bank within 40 minutes of them phoning us to say we had completed. We were kept up to date with each stage of the sale as it happened. Thanks to Gillian and team at Levi. We will recommend you to friends."

"Levi Solicitors carried out the conveyancing on my first house purchase... Although it became complicated and lengthy when my lender required works to be carried out before releasing the funds, they took all the potential [aggravation] out of the process and managed it brilliantly, even when the solicitor originally in charge of my case left the company; another team took care of it straight away and the transition was seamless. They did a fantastic job all round, and better still, they charged the exact price quoted at the start of the process with no hidden surcharges."

"I used Levi's for 2 property sales and a purchase. Although the situation with Covid slowed things down I found the whole process to be pretty smooth. I received good communication throughout and they were always available on the phone or via email to answer any queries. Towards the end of the process we were moved to a new solicitor, Gillian Sandford due to case load challenges. This is where the service we received stepped up to another level. Gillian took complete ownership of the process, moved things along at a pace, handled a challenging situation with the buyers solicitors admirably and managed us through what could have been a bit of a nightmare day on completion. All very impressive!"
