We used Watson Woodhouse for the sale of our home and purchase of our new bungalow. We would like to thank Katie Gibson, Jackie Howard and Livvie-Mae Pruden for all their help and support during this long process which was delayed by an issue with our vendor’s solicitors. The ladies acted with patience and kindness and were totally professional at all times. Thank you all so much.

My experience with Watson Woodhouse, Sarah Smith especially was outstanding. Sarah listened to me and give nothing but reassurance throughout my case. Visiting the Middlesbrough office for meetings at times, I was welcomed with a lovely reception. Having not being involved with a solicitor before I was scared but I will forever be grateful for this period of having the help and guidance of Sarah and the firm. She made it clear not only of the positives throughout the case but also what negative results that could occur so I wasn’t given false hope.
Thank you!

Jade and her team were very efficient and always happy to answer any of my questions. The sellers solicitors were taking their time with responding to enquiries and Jade would always chase them and keep me in the loop

I have used this company twice in the past 5 years due to their excellent service. My solicitor was Jade Allen and I would highly recommend her. She communicated with me, ensuring I was given regular updates. Any queries I had were answered quickly and efficiently. Progress was made because she was very proactive. Thank you Jade and the team at Watson Woodhouse.

Katie Gibson was my point of contact and consistently patient, kind and helpful. Communication was good and her steady and clear support eased the process a great deal. On the occasions I dealt with other members of the team, they were all warm, charming and similarly helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Richard and the conveyancy team were all fantastic when selling and purchasing a subsequent property. They made the process stressful. I would highly recommend Watson Woodhouse.

Paul Henderson was so helpful and he explained the process thoroughly. He kept me up to date at every step and no question was too small for him. He would answer everything I asked and replied to my emails promptly. Very nice man and genuine.

Richard was very attentive and provided quick replies to my emails regarding conveyance services towards buying my first home.
He has made the whole process of being a first time buyer as pleasant as it can be considering how stressful it can get!
Provided me realistic expectations and sorted issues out promptly

Paul has been extremely thorough and supportive throughout a traumatic experience. He kept me informed at every stage, offering clear and reassuring advice that helped me navigate the process with confidence.
I truly felt I could trust him with every aspect of my case, and I couldn’t have asked for a better solicitor. His professionalism, empathy, and dedication made a difficult time much more manageable.
Thank you very much for all your assistance, Paul — it has meant more than words can express.

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish! If you have a landlord that is hell bent on making things difficult for you, and or have been victim of a retaliatory eviction these are the guys to go through for legal support.
We were very nervous given the situation we were in through no fault of our own and required legal aid also. Lizzie was brilliant and explained everything to our understanding and throughout, given we had no notice of the first court hearing but managed to pull together to for me to be present. Submitting our response to witness statment exactly as we wished and also providing not only advice but at time emotional support. Right through to the end. Given we didn't have a second hearing due to LL pulling out all together. Thankyou!

Very professional, friendly and knowledgeable!
