| Gillian's clients' testimonials speak for themselves

"Can't think of a single time when [Gillian] failed to get on with the job. Very good at handling our issues despite the CV 19 restrictions. Responded to all emails within 24 hours. At key times she could be contacted by phone."

Ms H, Leeds

"Thank you so much for your vigilance and support in this process - much appreciated. I know it’s not over yet but I would have no hesitation in recommending your company to others."

Ms H, Leeds

"Myself and partner have just bought our first house and were apprehensive of the whole process. Levi's appointed Gillian and her team as our solicitor and from the word go we knew we were in good hands. Gillian was extremely thorough with her work, she explained what each thing was that she sent us and most importantly she was very responsive to emails. Despite me sometimes emailing a lot with some questions Gillian never made me feel like I was bugging her. I couldn't recommend Gillian and her team enough 10/10 service."

Miss H, Leeds

"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."

Mrs S, Norwich

"Of all the parties I have dealt with during my flat purchase, Gillian always kept me informed and drove things forward. Excellent service, highly recommended."

Mrs W, Huddersfield

"We were incredibly impressed with the service offered by Gill and her team. They went above and beyond to help us on a fairly difficult and complicated case. We couldn't thank them enough for their efforts."

Mr and Mrs W, Oldham

"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."

Mr W, Barnsley

"Everyone were so friendly and professional. Thank you."

Mr O, Halifax

"I was extremely pleased with the way your team [Gillian Sandford] handled my conveyancing recently. The availability of people on the phone... was excellent. Updates were very good and there seemed to be a great ‘pace’ behind what they were doing... The best service I have ever received from a firm of Solicitors so thank you. Sarah [Kellett] was absolutely first class... Really helpful, professional and friendly. She did everything she said she would to quality, cost and deadline. She was a class act. Thanks again. You took the stress out of my purchase."

Mr E, Bury

"Gillian and the team were great."

Mr S, Scarborough

"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!"

Mrs K, Leeds

"Just finished our house sale and purchase. Gillian and Sue were very professional and great at staying in contact and giving regular updates. Overall a very good experience."

Mr J, Leeds

"Gillian Sandford was fantastic from start to finish! Although the house sale was very troublesome on a number of different levels, Gillian's calm approach to the issue we had were overcome with ease. She had a professional, responsive approach to dealing with our house sale, I would not hesitate to recommend Gillian and Levi Solicitors for conveyancing."

Mr S, Huddersfield

"I was assigned to Levi Solicitors not having had any dealings with them. I found them to be excellent. Gillian Sandford who was dealing with my conveyance was friendly and professional. She responded to queries almost immediately and completed the sale in approx 5 weeks. Should I have occasion to use solicitors again I will definitely contact them."

Mrs T, Preston

'We'd just like to say that we have been impressed by how fast this is all progressing and quite impressed with the service, we haven't identified any issues or concerns with the results of the searches thus far so fingers crossed all continues well.'

Mr S, Leeds

'Have always been able to get through or in contact with the appropriate person. Very helpful with lots of experience and guidance. Always felt they understood my concerns and did their best in solving and constantly keeping me up to date whether it be good or bad information. A special thank you to Gillian S. & Sue P. who went above and beyond in making our sale as smooth as possible. Very professional and would definitely recommend and use again."

Mrs T, Leeds

"Gillian was allocated my conveyancer case and she was superb. It was a relatively small purchase, which then became more complex, but she kept me fully informed at every stage. My agreed fee remained the same despite the process becoming more lengthy and involved and Gillian was absolutely terrific throughout."

Mr K, Leeds
