Residential Conveyancing, the buying or selling of property, can be one of the biggest steps you take in your life, and we believe it is your right to know exactly what is happening at every stage of the process.
From experience we find that clients want a solicitor who can explain and take care of everything from start to finish, who they can telephone and speak to. Most of all, they want a solicitor they can trust to get the job done with minimum hassle.
It is said that moving house ranks up there alongside Death and Divorce as the three most stressful experiences in modern life. They say that it is worse than losing your job, your hair or anything else you can think of. The biggest source of that stress is the dreaded “chain” – a whole line of people itching to move at different times in different directions.
When moving house you need to be able to contact your solicitor: you need to know what is happening and why it is happening . You need to know what to do and when to do it. As a law Firm we recognise just how important this is to you.

Sophie has been excellent throughout, keeping us informed and our best interests at heart. Thank you for a quick, reliable and efficient service.
We have used Simon as our solicitor on numerous occasions over the years. We trust him 100%, we really do not have any negatives! Very thorough, responsive and really does get the job done.

You have all been brilliant in getting it all through and i really appreciate all your help and support throughout the process. I am so happy everything went through so smooth and quickly and I am really excited to have the keys to my new home. Thanks again.

May we take this opportunity to thank sincerely Juliet and your good self for all your hard work and help throughout the sale. Mason, Baggot and Garton came to us through a recommendation and we must say you have lived up to our expectations and made the experience as painless as possible!
I'm always impressed with Simon's professionalism and his speed in getting the job done. Thanks
Our sale and purchase came at a time of challenge with ill health. We were supported, encouraged and "befriended" throughout a stressful process. Can not thank you enough.
Everything went very smoothly so much so that there was little contact needed.
Extremely satisfied with the level of service we received. I would highly recommend yourself to others. The level of communication was clear and excellent.
Amazing communication from start to finish. Simon and Travis have both been brilliant, nothing was too much trouble for them and I was kept up to date at all times.
In the past few months, a lot of my friends and family have moved house and it has been very stressful for them due to the service that their solicitor provided. However in our case the whole process was quick, easy and flawless. Well done to you all for a fantastic service.
Excellent service, speedy, great communication. I would defiantly recommend this solicitors.
The service was faultless from first contact to the completion.
Ms Sophie Croft is very professional and works at a very high standard, She supported me a lot when Halifax declined my mortgage application only one day before the proposed completion date. She works in a very calm way. I found her very polite, nice ,a lovely human being and a very competent solicitor.
Very good service from Melissa Moran. Our house sale/purchase was progressed quickly and easily. She was also able to prevent the sellers estate agents from causing trouble along the way. I would just like to say a thank you to Melissa Moran for all her help throughout the process. It took all the stress out of buying and selling the house.
Outstanding professional help from start to finish couldn't have asked for anymore help being a first time buyer. All advice and help given straight away . Absolutely recommended 10/10 stars! Thank you for helping me and my family buy our first home we will always be grateful.
Prompt and professional Service.
My personal thanks to Simon and Travis who were both excellent. Very pleased with the service.
Melissa Moran was very professional when taking over my house move when another colleague left. Communications were great. Thankyou
Thoroughly delighted with the service I received and the personal phone call to confirm completion on my house purchase had taken place was much appreciated.
We sold a house in West Yorkshire and bought a house in Somerset. Despite the distance between areas and our solicitors the process was very efficient and predominantly electronically apart from the essential paperwork that had to be witnessed. The link up with our bank was seamless and updates on the case were immediately available on the conveyancing/tracking system.
Sophie was amazing. I couldn’t ask for more from her. Our process was long and stressful due to 3rd parties however my only confidence throughout both our sale and purchase was in Sophie the whole time. Thank you very much.
Brilliant service through out. I had a delayed sale and they was excellent from the beginning to the end. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thanks
A thoroughly first class professional and friendly service in every way. Would thoroughly recommend.
The service provided by Becci Heseltine and Juliet Taylor was exceptional. We were kept up to date throughout the process both through the portal and via email. We would highly recommend Mason Baggott and Garton to anyone purchasing a house. Many thanks.
Sophie was always on the ball and worked ahead of plan to ensure a speedy service. She explained complex issues in a way we could understand and gave very good advice. We have never used a solicitors who were not local to us however Sophie made sure that this was not an issue and made sure that timings for post etc were never an issue - a real expert in all interactions.
Ryan Smith was the person we dealt with the most throughout this process. Despite some delays (on the sellers side) he was amazing throughout. I cannot thank Ryan enough for keeping us in the loop at all times and reassuring us when we were worried. Thank you!
Melissa and Ellie ensured the process was as smooth as possible. Efficient service, lovely people.
Melissa was very lovely and was always helpful with my million and one questions, and was very good at guiding us through the process. especially with all the extra bit we need and counselling with pushy sellers.
Would highly recommend, Ryan and Sophie were excellent.
Very satisfied with the progress and how well you kept us informed, would recommend. Thank you for all your help.
Travis was exceptional at returning calls and emails, very helpful!! Excellent service!! Thank you.
Fantastic service, recommend 100% Simon was brilliant!
I have been very happy with the service you given me. Having dealt with many local solicitors I was skeptical about using a firm not local to my area. The reason for using your company was to speed up the sale of my property because my buyer was using one of your other outlets. I can honestly say the service I have received from your selves has far exceed all of my other experience with other soliciting firms. I will with out question certainly be using your services for future matters.
Very happy with the service from start to finish. Any queries dealt with quickly and efficiently. Definitely be using your services in the future.
Great service with information passed on very well.
Both Simon and Travis were superb, they kept us up to date throughout the process with information and progress. Would highly recommend.
I just wanted to thank you for your highly professional and efficient work regarding my recent house purchase. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who requires conveyancing services.
Sophie Croft is exceptionally gifted and professional in her capacity as a solicitor. Even when I pushed her to the limit, she remained composed and professional. You’re awesome, Sophie.
Perfect, made the process really simple and easy to complete. Thank you all and special thanks to Sophie and Ryan doing an excellent job.
Excellent service, impressed with the speed of responses and excellent value for money.
Sophie kept us informed and looked after our interests throughout the process. She was always polite and kept cheerful even when we were forcing her hand. A pleasure to work with.
Thank you - I wouldn't hesitate to use your services again.
Ann Hinds was excellent. She was extremely patient with us as first time buyers. She always had time to explain things to us, so we always understand what was happening. Nothing was too much trouble. Should I need a solicitor in the future, I wouldn’t hesitate to approach Ann again.
This solicitor is absolutely brilliant they do their job perfectly.
Very Pleasing service throughout the sale of my late mums house. Everything progressed smoothly and communication was always swift and excellent. A huge thank you to Simon, Lauren & Sarah.
First rate service! I cannot fault the customer service and the timely manner that my questions were answered. I was worried that not using a local firm would be a problem, but absolutely no problem. I would recommend to anyone.
Always there to give help and advice. Always quick to reply to letters emails and phone calls. Always patient and courteous.
Excellent service from Becci we were kept up to date and informed regularly on progress, she responded to questions quickly and professionally.

Cheryl Watkins was also very helpful and supportive.
Many thanks for handling the sale and ensuring everything went through smoothly.
Superb prompt service. Helpful all through the process.
I found the service to be of a high quality and felt able to email or telephone for assistance when completing forms etc. should I require. Responses were helpful and timely. All staff were professional and friendly, making the legal process a comfortable experience.
I would like to say a huge and sincere thank you to you all for your kind and super professional support on my purchase. I feel deeply grateful for your prompt responses during this stressful process and particularly for the very last moments on the exchange & completion day. Had it not been for your kindness and professionalism, this process could not have been completed nicely on a late Friday afternoon.
I would surely recommend your service to all of my friends and family members who want to purchase/sell their properties.
Your service was excellent.
Excellent service from start to finish.
Amazing service from Sophie, from start to finish she was amazing talking me through the next steps and processes. Being a first time buyer and frankly not really doing much research I didn't really know what to expect in regards to next steps, timelines etc.
She kept me in the loop every step of the way and every time I had questions she gave me a call and talked me through them. Prior to even completing I recommended your services to a friend and no doubt on my next purchase will be reaching out.
I have been dealing with your firm for a number of years now and the care and attention by all the staff has been first class. It can not be improved. Through happy times and sad times it has always been the same. Thank you very much for all your help.
Sophie kept us informed and looked after our interests throughout the process. When we tried to take risks she rightly expressed caution, but at the end of the day she pulled out all the stops to complete our purchase against all the odds. Thank you Sophie.
Kept me very well informed on progress of my remorgage, If I had a query it was answered quickly. It was a stress free experience.
Thank you for your efficient service. I'm a first time buyer and you made it as painless as possible!
I just want to thank Becci and Juliet on the completion of our house, there service was excellent, keeping us up-to-date at every stage and answering any queries we had in a timely manner. I would highly recommend.
Overall the transition took some time, but it's worth waiting because the solicitor had made sure that they are legit and satisfied with documents. Which will make my life easier in future. Thanks for all your help.
Excellent service and I will continue to use you and recommend you to anyone with conveyancing matters.
Friendly professional service. My first time dealing with a solicitor as a first time buyer and they kept me informed all the way along, and made me aware when I needed to do anything. Happy with the service.
We have used your conveyancing services on numerous occasions over the last 20 years and would never use anyone else. You communicate extremely well and all staff members are always professional and approachable.
Both Simon and Megan are professional, sensitive, make time to respond to any query in a timely manner and make the stressful process of buying and selling; much easier. Simon and Megan's communication is excellent even if it it a note to say nothing has progressed.
I had a great experience with Mason Baggott and Garton Solicitors. Sophie, my solicitor was excellent and quickly earned my trust. She is an informative, calm professional and we cannot thank her enough for her support.
We had issues further down the chain which highlighted how fortunate we was to have Sophie Croft as our solicitor/conveyancer she kept us informed at all times, we would definitely recommend her services.
Sophie and Ryan did an amazing job completing my purchase of my property. Kept me up to date every step of the way, definitely recommend, 5 stars from me. Thanks again for all your work.
Both Heather and Mary were brilliant in the face of what you could call an eventful purchase journey. I would recommend their services very highly.
Melissa was very helpful and although she was very busy we felt like she took great care and time in dealing with our house purchase. We were first time buyers and she explained the process to us clearly.

From Our Help Centre
Buying or selling your house remains one of the most uncertain times in many of our lives. We have developed our processes to try to minimise that uncertainty as far as possible. This guide sets out not only the fees we will charge on a sale or purchase but also the other costs that may be payable.
There is no standard sale or purchase of a house. The system has become more digitalised but all of the traditional complications still exist; structural defects, mortgage difficulties, personal preferences on timing and relationship issues can slowly change a “straightforward deal” to a long drawn-out and frustrating affair. We reflect this in the price we charge to offer you the certainty of a fixed fee whilst affording our team the time to deal with each and every client on an individual basis.
As no two transactions are ever the same, it is difficult to predict how long a sale or purchase may take. It can commonly take eight to twelve weeks but we will aim, if possible, to complete far quicker than that but unfortunately it may sometimes take longer.
The price information that follows is given for guidance and should not be taken as a binding quote. When we work for clients, we always ensure that we give a personalised costs estimate at the outset, based on the actualities of each transaction.
Disbursements
“Disbursements” are payable during the conveyancing process. Disbursements are costs that are payable to third parties (whether or not we handle the processes). Disbursements are not set by us and what is payable will depend upon whether it is a sale or purchase, freehold or leasehold. We have set out below the most common disbursements which are likely to be found in different transactions.
As disbursements are payable to third parties we request money from you before we incur those costs and this is usually at the start of the transaction. Typically, we ask you to pay £25.00 on a sale and £250.00 on a purchase.
Our Costs
Our costs have been carefully calculated to ensure that we can provide the certainty of fixed prices for individual transactions whilst giving our team the time to deal with each client and matter on an individual basis rather than as part of an industrial-style process.
Our costs reflect the level of work we anticipate is likely to be involved based upon our many decades of conveyancing experience. As you will see, we consider there is likely to be slightly less time involved in acting on a sale rather than a purchase.
Our costs also reflect the value of the property. Each sale or purchase, no matter the value of the property, will be dealt with in the same way with the same level of dedication and attention to detail. However, we are mindful that our costs must remain proportionate but also reflect the element of risk we take in dealing with higher value transactions.
