Conveyancing solicitors for Chichester
Whether the property in your sights is to be your first-time home or you’re up-sizing for a growing family, our experts can help. If you are relocating to town, countryside or coast, our local knowledge is at your fingertips.

How can a residential property solicitor help?
We offer a full range of residential conveyancing services and maintain excellent links with other South Coast property professionals including estate agents, builders, and developers.
So if you are buying or selling any type of residential property, we can help. If your purchase of a new property depends on the sale of a current property, we can help.
When you are buying property directly from a developer, thanks to our specific expertise in new-build developments, we can help. And if you are buying or selling the property at auction, we can also help.
Our experienced team can help current leaseholders negotiate and complete the purchase of their property’s freehold, either individually or as a group. Alternatively, we can help you extend the length of your leasehold term, adding value to your home or future-proofing your investment.
We can help if you are interested in joint-ownership of a property – our experts are well-versed in specialist co-ownership conveyancing and liaising with multiple lenders, and experienced in drawing up deeds that will protect your interests, a declaration of trust, for example, to establish and clarify each co-owner’s legal and financial responsibilities.

Client Testimonials
“Dear Nicholas,
It is so nice to have dealings with a straightforward and honest firm, it is so refreshing. You have shown consideration and care in my affairs.”

Nicholas Smith
Just a note to thank you both very much for your help during the sale of Betty’s apartment. I was pretty stressed about it all, especially after the first sale fell through. But your kindness and efficient follow-up on everything really helped me. I have total confidence in your services and would not hesitate to work with you again. Very best wishes.
Sandy
Nicholas Smith
Nick, Maddie and Sally were absolutely brilliant. Very approachable, efficient and worked very hard to get our matter completed very quickly. Will definitely recommend to friends/family. Thank you to all so much again.
Jonathan Kerr Crow

We just wanted to take the time as well to say a personal thanks to the pair of you for your excellent service and support during our move. We had used you before but, like many people, we were tempted to go this time with one of the low cost on line conveyancing quotes we received. Had we done so we are now sure we would have regretted it as we feel that the exemplary service we got from yourselves was true value for money. In particular, towards the end of the process when we had to deal with a very demanding buyer for our house we felt very well supported by you not just in the technical elements of your service but also in the responsiveness and personal support we received. We have heard numerous stories from friends and colleagues of how they have struggled with conveyancing services during property transactions and have enjoyed telling people what a positive experience we had with George Ide.
Jeremy & Nicky Mills

It is hard to improve on an existing, excellent service and I have no suggestions to make. I will definitely recommend you and would use your services again.
Mr. Philip Oliver

Nick was at the very top of his game (again). If there is a better lawyer out there, I’ve yet to meet him. A giant amongst men. Respect.
Pete Cunningham
Nicholas Smith
Nick was always very quick to respond to any queries and made the whole process a lot less stressful, especially as it was my first property purchase. Guidance documentation was very helpful too. I can’t fault the service.
Teresa Durrant
Nicholas Smith
The speed from offer to completion surprised everyone we spoke to and more than met our deadline to beat the June Stamp Duty deadline. Well done, absolutely delighted.
John Middleditch
Nicholas Smith
An outstanding week – thanks for the speed and efficiency on the two deals you’ve acted on. I just wish all solicitors were as proactive as you.
It doesn’t get much better than this.
Mr C
Nicholas Smith
Thank you for informing C that she has successfully exchanged on Bell Cottage.
Can I personally thank you for your prompt and excellent service. Your turn-around has been exemplary.
As a result we will be arranging power of attorney, and any other legal work in the future, through George Ide’s offices.

Nicholas Smith
I would like to take the opportunity to thank you and your team for your friendly and efficient manner when carrying out the conveyancing of my late Grandmothers property. Other than the delays caused by our buyers it went very smoothly and I am grateful to you for pushing it through so quickly once their issues had been resolved and have pleasure to attach our client satisfaction questionnaire. Kind regards
Jon Sargent
Nicholas Smith
A friendly, helpful and competent service close to home and we felt welcome, relaxed and confident in their hands. Thank you all.
