John was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish. He was always on hand to help with queries, responsive and personable. He had a calmness that put me at ease during the stressful moments of the purchase. I couldn't have been happier with the service I received and nothing ever seemed too much trouble. Thanks John and your team for being so fantastic!

I could not recommend Spencer Skuse & Potter more. Many conveyancing firms in my experience are slow to progress your transaction and difficult to get hold of once instructed. This was the complete opposite with Spencer Skuse & Potter, with Alex Oakley (along with his brother Andrew) providing me with a top class service throughout. They never needed to be chased and dealt with everything very proactively.

I was also impressed how they dealt with various hiccups pragmatically, keeping me informed at every juncture. 10/10 and will now always use this firm for any conveyancing/property related legal work, along with recommending them to anyone I know who needs such services.

Poor communication. I would not pay unless all work completed. Commercial lease still not registered with land registry 4 years on!

Would highly recommend. Super responsive, fast-moving, and reliable solicitors. We used Spencer Skuse & Potter for our latest house sale and they were magnificent. I have used a few solicitors over the years, but John Potter and his team have truly been the best.
