Google5 months agoI have used Mel at Sharmans for a couple of commercial property transactions and her client service has been outstanding.
I just wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you both for your dedication in getting this sale over the line. I truly appreciate the consistent effort and persistence you showed throughout, especially with the ongoing follow-ups with the buyer’s solicitor. It’s certainly been a challenging process, given the delays and the complexities on both the buyer’s side and with my trustees, but your focus never wavered. Elaine, a special thank you for your perseverance while Mel was on leave, and for keeping everything moving forward. I’m also very grateful for the clear and regular communication throughout—it made a real difference. Thanks again to you both.

Google10 months agoI’ve worked with Mel Lawrence at Sharman Law on several commercial property sales, and I honestly couldn’t ask for a better solicitor.
Mel is exceptional — she consistently goes above and beyond, and her commitment to outstanding client service is second to none. Commercial property transactions can be complicated and stressful, but Mel has a remarkable ability to make even the most difficult process feel straightforward and manageable. She explains everything clearly, keeps you informed at every stage, and handles challenges with absolute professionalism and calm. Nothing ever feels too much trouble for her — she’s proactive, thorough, and always one step ahead, ensuring that potential issues are resolved before they even become problems. Her attention to detail is exceptional, and her dedication to securing the best possible outcome truly sets her apart. Mel genuinely goes the extra mile, time and time again, and it’s clear that she takes real pride in her work. The wider team at Sharman Law also deserves credit; they’re efficient, responsive, and consistently supportive, making the whole experience seamless from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to recommend Mel. If you want someone who is reliable, highly skilled, and truly invested in your success, she is the solicitor you want on your side. An outstanding professional through and through.

Googlea year agoA really poor performance from Mel Lawrence.
She failed to respond promptly or accurately throughout. Requiring multiple reminders to elicit any response. This resulted in a simple, non-contentious matter taking 12 months to complete, even though the terms were agreed by both parties at the outset.
