Any recommendations for solicitors in Warrington

Hiya,

I don't know if it's the weather or what but in the last few days I emailed 2 different solicitors asking for a quote for a house buy and a re-mortgage and no-one has got back to me!! As far as I am concerned, if they aren't efficient / bothered enough to send me a quote then they are crossed off my list? Bit harsh maybe...

Anyway can anyone recommend any solicitors in Warrington Cheshire. I understand that you can use any solicitors anywhere in the country but I prefer a company that is local so if we need to go over to sign anything then it's straightforward and quick.

Thanks!

    Does it have to be Warrington?
    Im based in Altrincham and use a company called Paul Crowley and co in liverpool for about 90% of my clients.

    Theyre not on panel for nationwide or accord but everyone else they are.

    FWIW I emailed three firms around Birmingham yesterday, asking them to quote for a client. Two were quoted within an hour and the other first thing this morning.

    I guess they would like to get business from us on a regular basis, so a quick response is likely to make us more likely to ask them again.

    Forshaws Davies Ridgeway are very good and I would recommend them.

    I'm currently using Forshaws Davies Ridgeway ( FDR Law). I was recommended and have been using Tim Jordan as my solicitor and so far I have no complaints. I've also been using him to extend the lease on my property while I sell it.

    Thanks,

    Thanks for all of your replies.

    I have contacted Paul Crowley and Dootsons by email so hopefully they will get back to me on Monday. The vendor is using FDR so I believe that we can't (conflict of interest?). Thanks everyone!
