  • Victoria was highly recommended to me. I can honestly say Victoria is the best solicitor I have ever used. Professional but very approachable and kind. The sale was a difficult one to say the least, and extremely stressful, but Victoria managed to overcome all the obstacles with ease.

Her friendly attitude and readiness to take calls and reply to emails was very reassuring as well.

Victoria has been excellent at keeping us up to date and moving the process along at a good pace; her calm, friendly and professional manner was exactly what we needed. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone selling or buying a property.

  • I recently purchased a house with my daughter, it was complicated and we were nervous. Someone recommended Victoria Cranwell and she was so helpful. Right from the start, she made me feel we were in safe hands. She was always responsive to us and made the whole process far more simple than it first appeared. Victoria combines professionalism with a real human touch. I can not recommend Victoria more highly; she was supportive, thorough, professional, kind and completely on top of the situation the whole way through.
    D.N. | July 2021
  • It has honestly been a delight to work with you on the property purchase logistics. Without question, this purchase has been the least stressful and the most efficient process we have ever undertaken. You have been proactive and positive, your efficient communication with all parties was excellent, and you carefully watched over the entire process to successful completion. Would not hesitate to recommend you to friends who require a solicitor to manage a house purchase.
    N.S. & D.S. | July 2021
  • As a first time home buyer and as an American resident of the UK, I found the unique legal procedure of purchasing a house here quite daunting...until Victoria Cranwell became my solicitor. Victoria was always available during lockdown by phone and email whenever I needed help and I felt particularly protected by her. She advised me clearly and carefully every step of the way and worked late so that my family and I completed by the deadline we set out. I couldn’t be happier with her exemplary representation and counsel. Victoria will be my first call solicitor ongoing.

  • Conveyancing can be like going to the dentist - some pain and discomfort with the promise of calm and better times once the process is over - but not with Victoria Cranwell. The whole process of tying up a recent sale and purchase was made smooth and predictable by her professionalism, her rapid communications, her attention to detail, her reassuring advice and, most of all, by her charm. Thank you, Victoria.
    I.D. | April 2021
  • As a first time property purchaser in the UK, Victoria was able to handle our legal needs with promptness, clarity, and sound advice. Always available for a phone call or Zoom meeting, Victoria was able to steer us in the right direction at every turn throughout the transaction and ensured that we were well informed and protected. It was a pleasure to deal with Victoria and others at BLB, I would not hesitate to recommend her and their services to anyone, and we are likely to use them again in the future.
    O.B. | April 2021
  • We’ve been very impressed by Caroline and Victoria's diligence, pro-activity and service. We will certainly be recommending them - best conveyancers we’ve seen in a long time.
    R.K. | March 2021
  • We both would like to thank you for your endless work, guidance and help throughout the entire process, and for always making yourself available for an email, zoom call or telephone call.

  • Such a special moment for our family - huge leap forward for us! We are beside ourselves with joy and a little feeling of disbelief too if I am honest. How do we thank you - we are so grateful for the hard work you put in and appreciate every effort. All of us thank you massively, Victoria, and you too Olivia. Should we ever come across anyone seeking the services of a 'top' conveyancing solicitor - we will definitely point them in your direction.

  • We were very lucky to have Victoria Cranwell as our solicitor. She always answered my questions (and I had a lot!) as soon as possible and worked very hard to ensure a smooth exchange and completion. She was warm and courteous and extremely professional. In what is often a fraught process, she made everything a lot easier and we’d both like to thank her for always going that extra mile.
    A.W | October 2020
  • Thank you, Caroline and everyone who has worked so hard on my behalf. You don’t even know me – really that is big. I do hope we get to meet in Bath someday. Everyone has done a great job on my behalf and really come together – the brokers, the Building Society and both of you. Victoria – you have been lovely to work with on this and efficient.
