Sharing is caring!

This is a question that we have asked ourselves many times since launching our residential property department in April 2020. 

Clients tell us that it is our excellent service standards, competitively priced fees, in-depth market knowledge, and ability to get deals done no matter what is thrown at us. 

However, we were interested to hear the thoughts of the latest recruit to our rapidly expanding team, Olivia Hargreaves, and to find out what it was about us, as a firm, which made her want to join.

By way of background, Olivia is an experienced solicitor who has spent the best part of the last decade working in residential conveyancing and who deals with both freehold and leasehold transactions, together with remortgages, equity release schemes, property disposals and transfers arising from separation, divorce and death, and the acquisition of buy-to-lets, holiday homes and investment property at auction. 

Here is what Olivia had to say:

“The thing that attracted me to Step Legal was the impressive reputation that the firm has managed to build up for itself since it was first established in 2019; and not just among clients who consistently rate them as excellent and 5 star on review sites like Trust Pilot and Google Reviews, but also among local estate agents, financial advisors and other conveyancers who all praise the firm for their expertise and for their willingness to work collaboratively and proactively to get their sales and purchases over the line.”

And she adds:

“I was also hugely impressed by the wide range of conveyancing matters that the firm deals with, from the straightforward purchase of new build properties to the disposal of complex leasehold estates and investment portfolios; and also by the fact that they are now attracting clients not just from Cheshire and Staffordshire, but from the Midlands, the North and South of England and even UK residents who are based overseas.” 

Thank you Olivia, what a great endorsement!

So what are our plans for the future? 

Given that demand for our conveyancing services continues to grow at an exceptional rate, our plan for the next 12 to 18 months is to keep on working hard to meet and exceed our clients expectations, and to recruit further team members to cope with the increasing number of instructions we are receiving. 

So if you have a background in residential conveyancing, or are looking to move into this area of work – either as a lawyer or in an administrative role – then why not send a copy of your CV to the head of our conveyancing team, Olivia Hargreaves, at oliviahargreaves@steplegal.co.uk, and we can keep you posted on available vacancies.
