What Clients say about Deborah Taite

    “I am very pleased with the service provided by Deborah Taite at Grant & Saw . I have had work done by other solicitors at Grant & Saw they always provide an excellent service. Deborah Taite provided a stress free service efficiently and quickly. The estate agent also told me they found Deborah to be very efficient.” CS

    “Excellent service getting us to our dream home.”KD

    “We have been buying and selling properties in the UK for almost two decades, and using Grant Saw was the only constant throughout. The last sale was the most challenging ever, both for us and for poor Ms Taite, whose outstanding professionalism, support, patience, dedication and perseverance really helped us to keep focussed, sane, calm and reassured during these past 9 months. This will be remembered as ‘The Pregnancy sale’! Thank you Ms Taite for all your work, particularly that done behind the scenes, for always being on top of things, for keeping us in the loop at every single step and, mostly, for being our brightest star in the darkest nights – and this transaction had plenty of those! With sincere thanks for your work!” Simona & Paolo

    “Excellent service. Deborah in particular was helpful, attentive, detail-oriented and very efficient” Bryn W

    “My house purchase needed to be completed in a very short period of time – 7 weeks ! My conveyancer was great at dealing with my seller’s solicitors and keeping my purchase timeline on track despite my seller’s solicitor going AWOL for 2 weeks.” SE

    “We sincerely thank you for your outstanding professionalism, support, patience, dedication, perseverance and, mostly, for ALWAYS being our bright star in the darkest nights – and this transaction had plenty of those nights! With deepest thanks ” Simona and Paolo

    “We used grant saw as they dealt with my mother previously with a sale and felt the service they provided was very professional. So when my mum passed away there was no doubt we would use them again to deal with the sale of my late mother’s property. Although we where let down with the first buyer and then it been a difficult time for everyone through dealing with COVID grant saw was always there to provide help and advice for us. Once we had another buyer although it took longer than expected because of the buyers legal team grant saw was also responsive to emails and chasing up things. Would highly recommend and would definitely use them again.” Matthew B

    “Very efficient and always responded to any queries quickly and sorted any problems. Would thoroughly recommend this firm.” EW

    “Despite some difficulties, always professional” Julie M

    “Dear Deborah, Many thanks for all your help, support and advice whilst carrying out our conveyancing for us. It is much appreciated.” Gail & Duncan R

    “Excellent service with human attention to specific problems of clients” Bertrand M

    “We had a long drawn out sale of a flat that required great perseverance and tenacity on our side. We were finally able to resolve all issues in large part due to the skills and efficiency of the solicitor acting on our behalves. Deborah Taite was an extremely effective communicator throughout the process and provided various options and a very pragmatic approach when there was the possibility of the sale not progressing.” RS

    “Really nice, friendly, helpful, professional and would use again. I don’t give reviews for many things but you have been really helpful.”Harvi S

    “Many thanks Deborah and Daniel for the help. It was very efficient from our perspective and we’ll happily recommend you to others.” Andy

    “Deborah was extremely helpful, from the first call to the completion of the sale. I made the switch from another law firm who wasn’t explaining the process to me properly, nor listening to the background and context around my transfer of equity. Deborah did a brilliant job of talking us through the steps and closing out the sale despite the peak period the market was in. Much appreciated” RT

    “Very thorough, very professional, we felt that the risks were very well managed and our transaction would be handled comprehensively. Deborah Taite was excellent in her care and attention to detail” PJ

    “Thank you so much for all your good work on our sale and purchase. We’ve been here for over two weeks now, still surrounded by boxes but delighted by the house and our surroundings here. We went into lockdown during the conveyancing and working from home can’t have been easy for you but you did a great job which I very much appreciate. Martin”

    “An excellent conveyancing agency, definitely convinces me it’s worth paying the extra for a great one.Deborah was excellent.” CL

    “Outstanding professional support. Very efficient.Highly recommended.”ES

    “Besides being thoroughly professional and efficient in her approach, the thing that makes Deborah stand out from the crowd is the way she repeatedly goes the extra mile for the client. She has unknotted several tricky legal problems for me in conveyancing, and brought a calming influence with her customary diplomacy to a sometimes fraught and nerve-racking business. It has been a pleasure to deal with her and I aim to use her services for future conveyances. Thoroughly recommended with a pleasant, engaging personality.”  GP

    “Deborah, Hope you are well I just wanted to say a personal thank you for the successful conveyancing and completion regarding the sale of my property. You kept me informed every step of the way and I am particularly grateful as midway through the sale process I was diagnosed with a major illness culminating in major surgery, however, I never once doubted that you were on top of things and always had my best interest in hand.  I can’t thank you enough for this as truly was a very difficult time for me, however the knowledge that my house sale was being taken care of was a great weight off my mind.  I would have no hesitation in referring you to my friends and colleagues.” Janice Watson

    “Deborah, your expertise, friendliness and diligence really helped the always stressful process go so much smoother. Your calmness was very reassuring especially when the top end of the chain began messing us about. I was very happy that my parents had recommended using your firm and we were so lucky that we had you acting for us. Many thanks again and we would not think twice in asking for you should we need your services in the future”  Robin & Meera

    “Deborah, Big thanks for the work on our purchase. All very professional and super swift. Nice.” Mr PL

    “Dear Deborah, Many thanks indeed for all your help in the sale of the property and I confirm receipt of the funds.  It has not been easy managing this from Australia (along with the lease extension) and I appreciate your professionalism, promptness in responding to queries and the advice you have provided throughout the process.”  Kind regards Mr C

    “Deborah, I will also take the opportunity to thank you for your help with this transaction.  I know that I can try the patience of job, and was impressed by you and your colleague’s professionalism throughout the process” G

    “What a fantastic result! Thank you so so much. I so much appreciate all your input and hard work.  Thanks again” Ade

    “Many thanks for your letter of 8th October. I am very grateful for the way you handled Homewise, I thought it was excellent.” John Lewis

    “We would like to thank you and your team for handling our sale for us.  You were so impeccably professional throughout and we are very appreciative. I trained initially as a solicitor and am always so pleased when I see women like you representing the profession with such a high standard. Please do share this feedback with your Partners as it will undoubtedly lead us to refer others to you in the future. ” Warm regards Barbara-Ann

    “We just wanted to say thank you for all your effort and hard work over the last few months which has led to our recent completion.  You are a gem and we wish you continued success in your field.” Beverley & Ben Uduje

    “Thank you for acting so well for me with the sale” CA

    ”I want to thank you. You have handled everything in an incredibly personable way, and very professionally and incredibly quickly. You managed to get us from receipt of the sellers details to exchange of contracts in 3 weeks, or actually 2.9 weeks as we exchanged on a Friday afternoon! You passed things through to us in a timely way and very efficient way. I know these things have an inherent stress factor, and your outward calmness all the time was greatly valued…. It is a great pleasure working with you Deborah, thank you. Kind regards,” Bill

    “I wanted to express more personal thanks to you. I was not unaware that it must have been difficult to deal with a situation where the seller knew very little of the practical and historical details about the house, and had succeeded in finding little information. You also had to deal with a last-minute failure to sell (which may of course be more common than I realise, but led to much later work). Throughout the whole process I felt secure in your calm and positive handling of the situation and your sage advice. My grateful thanks”. CMB

    “Having been round the mill a few times with different solicitors, I can say you’re in a class of your own in terms of empathy and communication skills. Keep doing what you’re doing, you’re amazing”. Ms K

    “During a very long, drawn out, complicated and stressful process involved in selling our jointly owned flat after a divorce, Deborah never failed to be helpful and efficient. She was always available to talk things through on the telephone. She showed remarkable patience and kindness”. Anonymous

    “We were incredibly pleased with the service received by Deborah and her team in the purchase of our new home. We were grateful of her patience and skill in what was a complicated purchase and would certainly recommend her service to others looking for a calm, measured and professional solicitor to assist them in the future”. Louby

    “Deborah was fantastic to deal with! Made the sale of the property while being overseas very easy, fast and efficient. I highly recommend Deborah”. Ashleigh

    “Deborah was great to deal with – good value for money, practical, proactive and personable. What more could you ask for”?! Eleanor

    “I have just completed a tricky flat sale. Deborah was very helpful throughout and kept everything on track. I’d strongly recommend her”! Ian

    “Very professional, approachable and made everything as smooth as possible”. Delia

    “Deborah was entirely reliable and thorough, very pleasant and straightforward. My lack of detailed knowledge about my relative’s house must have created problems, but she gave no indication of being ruffled, and was most reassuring”. CB

    “In June 2023 we contacted a local Estate Agent to arrange advertisement of our flat in Ashburnham Triangle. We were very quickly informed of someone who was considered a very interested buyer. We contacted Grant Saw Solicitors requesting legal representation for the sale. Deborah Taite took on responsibility and it appeared to the Estate Agent that it would be likely to be a fairly straightforward sale. Unfortunately, the solicitor for the buyer appeared to be very slow in handling the buyer’s enquiries and many other issues. Fortunately, Deborah Taite proved very competent, patient and calm in handling these difficult problems, resulting in a successful, albeit protracted, completion of sale”. Dr Jeremy David Perry

    “Deborah managed both transactions calmly and exceptionally quickly, keeping things moving and finding answers to our questions about easements and unregistered land. Although almost all contact was carried out very efficiently by email, Deborah was also available when needed on the phone and we also had one face to face meeting just before exchange”. Clare

    “A Fantastic Service !!! As with many property sales there can be complications ? But not at our end with Deborah at Grant Saw an absolutely fantastic service from start to finish Thank You Very Much Deborah”. Martin O’Hehir
