Mike was fantastic at extremely challenging time for me. I was apprehensive at first as I had never sought legal advice previously, however Mike put me at ease and clearly explained my options, providing excellent advice and guidance initially and gave me confidence as I went through a disciplinary process with my employer. It really is down to his support, expert advice and his guidance that I have an outcome that is better than I could have hoped for when I made that initial contact. Thanks again Mike, you have been brilliant throughout.

I am very pleased with everything we had done.

Mr & Mrs S

24 June 2019

I contacted Askews earlier this year upon buying a house as I had used the firm twice before when buying/selling properties. As with previous experiences, I was not disappointed. The costs were explained and broken down from the off, coming in more cost effective than other firms I had contacted for a quote. My contacts, Muriel and Steph, kept me up-to-date as we moved through the process, were always on hand to answer any questions I had and kept everything moving along at a good pace. Everything was explained at each step and what I needed to do by way of signing documentation and returning forms was made easy by the team’s descriptions and help. Unsurprisingly, the completion date came within the time estimate I was given at the start of the process and costs were not a penny more than I had been promised. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them if you are buying or selling a property in the Teesside area.

Mr S

11 June 2019

A really efficient and friendly service.

Mrs B

11 June 2019

Muriel Gibson dealt with the conveyancing for all 3 property's; she is the consummate professional, had the patience of a saint (dealing with other solicitors), kept us updated with all developments and was highly dedicated above and beyond what we would have expected. I would highly recommend Askews for any conveyancing that you may have; you really do get a 5 Star service.

Askews, and Muriel in particular, were amazing with our recent property sale. I have used them for four property purchases and every time have been incredibly impressed with their dedication, professionalism and knowledge. Muriel is fantastic and was helpful and supportive all the way through, keeping us up-to-date on progress and ensuring that we stayed on track for exchange and completion. I would recommend both Muriel and Askews to anyone who asked, they are great value for money, communicative and generally a lovely company to deal with. Thank you!

Ms C

4 April 2018

We used Askews back in 2009 to deal with the sale and purchase of properties, we dealt with a lady called Harriet Campbell. The service that was provided was excellent and the professionalism given was second to none. There was always friendly experienced staff at hand to deal with all our queries and progressed things along quickly up to completion. Based on our previous experience we decided to use your Company once again when we decided to move last year and deal with the sale and purchase of properties. This time we are dealing with Muriel Gibson, who with the help of her team Kirstie and Steph have offered the same level of service once again. Muriel has been on hand to offer advice and assist all the way throughout the process, it's been a long process due to the fact that the first property we were due to purchase fell through. However throughout all this Muriel and her team have offered a first class service, with a total level of professionalism, but with a hint of friendliness always available to help out via phone or e mail when needed. As tomorrow is moving day I would just like to say a real big thank you to Muriel and her team for all your help and can assure that I would I would definitely return if need to use your services again in the future, also would not hesitate to recommend your Company to any Family or Friends who would requires any of the services you could provide. All in all first class excellent service.
