The 1st Property Lawyers approach is dedicated to making the home moving process as stress-free and transparent as possible by offering home movers complete access, visibility and control. They combine a traditional personal service with a 21st century approach and unlike other online services which simply allow clients to track the status of their transaction, 1st Property Lawyers clients can view and upload documents and make secure payments online, ensuring they are as informed as possible.

By using the latest in cutting-edge technology coupled with our highly skilled, experienced staff we can ensure that we offer a fast, personal service.

“Our enhanced conveyancing service means movers can actually complete stages of the conveyancing process onscreen, without having to print anything off and post it back; they can scan and upload key forms and documents straight into their online case file; and they can keep all the information on their home move in one handy, easily accessible online file.
