Anglo French Law - Newcastle upon Tyne

Karen Croft

Marcel and his team guided us competently and professionally through our French property purchase, which also involved establishing and registering a French company.
Nothing was too much trouble for them. As we knew very little about the process, Marcel explained everything with care and patience based on his considerable experience and knowledge, also providing English translations of all documents.
We were delighted with the service we received and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Anglo French Law.

We instructed Anglo French Law when we bought our french property several years ago and they saved us a load in transfer tax and stamp duty, as well as making it possible for us to do the purchase in sterling with our British seller, which again saved a lot in foreign exchange rate cost.

Sadly recently we had a family bereavement and had a French probate issue to deal with. Anglo French Law were both considerate and compassionate, and dealt with the matter for us from beginning to end very quickly, taking the stress out of the whole bureaucratic process. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them for your french property purchase.

Anglo French Law acted for us in the purchase of an apartment in France. Throughout the transaction, Marcel, Scott and Anne were thoroughly professional and helpful, guiding us straightforwardly through the buying process from start to successful completion. The reports Anglo French Law produced were invaluable, summarising a huge amount of information within short timescales and making it clear and comprehensible. We would definitely recommend Anglo French Law's personal and proactive service to anyone buying a property in France.

I was so pleased to have involved Anglo French Law from the outset.My house sale should have been simple-cash buyer, no agent and no mortgages involved but we had major problems with the local notaire not responding to emails and telephone calls and months into the sale still no contract. Marcel's expertise, knowledge and skill in dealing with both sides took all the pressure off me and after bringing in a new notaire that they had used before, the sale went through as easily as it should have initially. Marcel and his colleague Scott were thoughtful, thorough and a pleasure to work with. I would certainly use them again and have absolutely no hesitation in fully recommending Anglo French Law.

I used this fine company in 2007 to assist with my property purchase , and advice on French inheritance law, potentially a minefield, they were so professional in all respects and "walked" us through each step of the process. If you are thinking of buying in France you will need this expertise!
I recently required advice on an unrelated matter to my house purchase, seven years on! and they gave excellent advice. I would not hesitate to recommend them or indeed use their services again, many thanks to all your staff.

Anglo French Law are a truly excellent firm with a wealth of expertise and superb customer service.

In my opinion, Anglo French Law are the best choice if you are looking for real expertise in French property law. They are skilled professionals who take pride in assisting their clients every step of the way.

A friend of mine who was selling his family home in France introduced me to Anglo French Law and I am very glad that he did. From the very first conversation that I had with Marcel, I knew that I had found someone who could clearly explain the process of French Succession and the transfer of the family property to me and more importantly, he was also someone in whom I could put my trust.

Marcel and Scott had the difficult task of dealing with all the parties of my family who weren't communicating with each other and dealt with all my concerns and the various issues that arose throughout the process with great diplomacy, skill and professionalism.

Give Anglo French Law a call and I am sure that you will discover the best French legal advice and professional legal service available. I highly recommend Marcel and his team.

Anglo French law assisted us in every element of our recent property purchase. We found them to be very responsive and answered all our questions; even the one’s I did not know I needed to ask, so they were proactive and expeditious which made the experience very reassuring provided security and peace of mind.
There was distinct added value in their service saving cost for us in excess of their fees and in our case since both we and the vendors are British we conducted the transaction thought their office in sterling at no additional cost which further reinforced aspects of cost control and transparency. All this resulted in a service that was cost neutral in delivering protection of our interest with professional indemnity insurance to specifically cover their service. We would recommend them very highly .

I have used Anglo French Law since 2009 to help with purchase and rental of a French property. I also used them for the recent sale of the same house. Eventhough I am a strong French speaker, the law in France is very different to UK, I wanted to ensure everything was done correctly and I didn’t hit any hidden pitfalls (my family has had houses in France since 50s and there have been incidences / misunderstandings).

Anglo French Law have been professional throughout and always responsive and polite. I am glad to say I have had no problems with any conveyancing, and they were able to translate and advise me on contract meanings (the law being different to the UK). Peace of mind springs to mind.
