Relationships that last

Ben Graham acted for me recently selling and buying properties. The service he provided was outstanding and I felt I was in a safe pair of hands throughout. He dealt with some small hiccups efficiently and his communication skills are second to none. He is professional, thorough and has a pleasant reassuring manner. This is someone who takes his job seriously. Such a refreshing change from previous solicitors that I have used.

Great job, thanks Shannon. I just wish we had gone ahead with consulting you and dealing with this years ago.

Exceptional services from Cullen Kilshaw Galashiels. From the planning stage we were guided by Brenda along with her years of experience. Katz and Laura were always on hand to answer any questions and advising on viewings which was very much appreciated.
Dan Rowe our solicitor was professional throughout, kept us updated on a regular basis which was very reassuring. Excellent conveyancing by him and his team. We would highly recommend Cullen Kilshaw.

Without doubt the best solicitors I have used. Both Sheila and Yasmine made the whole process smooth and were very efficient in producing the required documents, even in challenging circumstances. Their communication and quality in the details was also second to none. I would definitely use Cullen Kilshaw again and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a solicitors. First class!

Cullen Kilshaw’s team, in particular Elliot and Shannon, provided the most excellent service, from start to finish, explaining the process carefully, keeping us informed, managing the added complexity of us dealing with our sale in England at the same time. Always courteous, concise, and contactable, we appreciated their attention to detail and help when things became a little tricky. The process was speedy, and our purchase complete in only a few weeks, but it was carefully managed and we would not hesitate to recommend this company, in future. Thank you Cullen Kilshaw!

The legal team at Cullen Kilshaw have been fantastic from start to finish helping us purchase a property in Kelso. The process was seamless from the first conversation I had up until we completed. Having had very different experiences in the past with other legal firms this was very refreshing. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you.

I’ve recently used Cullen Kilshaw for the sale/purchase of property. I dealt with Kathy in the Tranent office and I can not speak highly enough of this lady.

Nothing was too much bother, she kept in regular contact and dealt with everything so professionally even when we hit a few bumps in the road!

Very knowledgeable in what she does and absolute credit to your business.

Thank you Kathy!
