My elderly father became gravely ill part way through the sale of his property. The team at Vincent Sykes understood the urgency to complete the sale quickly and did everything they could to get us there. They are professional and from the advice they gave I have every confidence in their legal experience. This has taken so much pressure off us as a family allowing us to focus on him in his last weeks and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them in the future.
