What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

House purchases, wills and court representation bring a varied clientele to this Peterborough firm, and the personal attention of individual fee earners emerges as the strand running through the feedback. Customers writing about their orders describe conveyancing handled by Jo Wood, praising her professional yet genuinely friendly manner, the proactive updates that kept them informed at each stage and the calm she brought to a stressful move.

Court work is another recurring theme: reviewers mention Andy Cave, noting his willingness to rearrange his day at short notice, his preparation and the favourable outcomes obtained, and Karen Shirley's persistence in securing representation. Will enquiries and cost questions also appear, with Kelly Buxton singled out for swift, concise replies and clear explanations of potential charges. A point made in several accounts is the absence of hidden costs, clients saying they were kept fully aware of what they were being charged as matters progressed.

Kashif Khan is likewise named for his conduct of proceedings and the positive results achieved. Beyond individual matters, the wider team is described as knowledgeable, approachable and quick to answer emails, with work progressed efficiently from instruction through to conclusion. Instructions taken on at short notice for a partner, and cases involving family members, are remembered as handled with diligence and care.

This involved email conversation which was carried out with prompt reply. It was to arrange a face to face appointment. Various dates were offered for our choice. This was helpful for us and all went smoothly. A satisfactory encounter

Made contact with H&C regarding enquiring about a Will and the response from them, particularly Kelly Buxton was swift and concise explaining the potential costs involved. As much as we have decided that we are now looking at exploring other options regarding a Will, (we didn't realise just how expensive making a Will was), Kelly responded in a timely fashion. We have no complaints about the service we have received from Kelly nor Hunt & Coombs.

If you’re looking for an excellent reliable lawyer you can’t do any better than Jenny Newell and the team at Hunt and Coombs , who dealt with my case diligently and compassionately throughout. There were no hidden costs and I was always kept fully informed of how much I was being charged.

Extremely disappointed with the service we received from Hunt & Coombs during our house purchase. We had previously used the firm on two occasions, so trusted them to act for us again. Unfortunately, during the purchase of our new home, there appears to have been a major misunderstanding regarding our source of funds. Rather than contacting us or the family member providing the gift to clarify the position, the firm decided they could no longer act for us and also declined the lender’s instructions. This caused huge stress, delay and disruption at a critical point in the transaction, especially as the seller was pushing for completion. In our view, a simple phone call could have resolved the issue, as the funds were gifted and supporting evidence was available. We fully understand that solicitors have strict anti-money laundering and lender obligations, but we felt the matter was handled in a very premature and heavy-handed way, without giving us a fair opportunity to clarify the facts. The situation caused us significant distress and inconvenience, and we are now having to instruct a new solicitor urgently to try and keep the purchase alive. Based on our experience, we would not recommend Hunt & Coombs for conveyancing.

I had a very good experience with Hunt & Coombs Solicitors, Peterborough. They are extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Mr Kashif Khan handled my court proceedings and he was able to get me a very favourable, positive outcome. I would definitely recommend them.

Jo is hands down the best solicitor we’ve ever worked with. She is brilliant, no-nonsense, and actually makes the whole process fun, which is a rare thing to say about moving house! She is head and shoulders above anyone else we have used in the past. If you want someone who gets the job done efficiently while being incredibly friendly and approachable, Jo is the one. We would 100% recommend her to anyone. Thanks again, Jo!

I have no words to describe how professional Andy Cave was. I couldn't imagine better solicitor than Andy Cave he was way beyond any of my expectations. Thank you Andy
