Residential property law

Moving home can be one of the most stressful experiences in our lives. Whether you are a first time buyer or have done this many times before, the excitement we all experience is coupled with anxiety and worry.

Our experienced Residential Property Law Team will provide you with clear, helpful advice to guide you through this process and make matters as clear and straightforward as possible, whilst doing all we can to meet your anticipated timescale.

Our property lawyers can provide comprehensive advice and assist you throughout your sale and/or purchase of a property or land. We can also deal with the requirements of any remortgage, equity release or auction. We are experienced in liaising with your mortgage lender, estate agents and other third parties to ensure your transaction is brought to a smooth and efficient conclusion.

We have produced our own booklet explaining the process of buying and selling a house from both sides of the transaction (with typical timescales), which we send to all new clients before starting work. You can also find out more on the Legal Choices website.

We needed our conveyancing to be done in a bit of a hurry and Reena and Amy at Porter Dodson's Bridport office did everything in their power to make it happen. The most refreshing thing was the excellent communication. When they said that they would take a particular action and phone us back that day that was exactly what happened. We have no hesitation in recommending their services.

Selling a leasehold flat covered by the Building Securities Act was never going to be an easy task! Caron Abbott and her team in Sherborne managed the whole long and drawn out process with great skill and calm tenacity, overcoming all manner of difficulties and unhelpful third parties. This sale was testing for everyone and I am very grateful to Caron for seeing it through to conclusion. Porter Dodson are to be congratulated and I shall certainly be using them for all future legal requirements.

Reena, Amy and the Team were fantastic, keeping us updated at every step and we completed in the time scale advised. Not a easy case as it was a listed property but we felt confident and assured with the advice and support from the team. Thank you to the Bridport office.

Both Michelle Wilson and her paralegal Sonya Bailey conducted the sale of my property in a very professional, polite and friendly manner. I would highly recommend this firm.
