I am a Solicitor specialising in Residential Property.

I joined the firm in September 2015 as a Trainee Solicitor and successfully qualified in 2017. Since qualifying, I have built up a good client base and connections in Bramhall where I am now permanently based.

During my time in practice with the firm, I have developed a client-friendly approach to my work and I relish in building up a relationship with my Client’s from the outset. It is always a pleasure to see the matter resolved successfully in the hope that one day that client will return for another legal issue.

I deal with all aspects of Residential Conveyancing including;

  • Sales and purchases of both freehold and leasehold properties;
  • Acting for Companies on residential matters
  • Re-mortgages;
  • Transfers of equity;
  • Unregistered land;
  • Plot / New build purchases;
  • Shared ownerships;
  • Freehold reversions;
  • Adverse Possession

Prior to becoming a qualified Solicitor, I studied Law at Lancaster University, before then going on to complete my Legal Practice Course at the University of Law in Chester.

Outside of work I am kept busy by running a Beaver Scout section and other charity work. I especially enjoy attending live gigs of one of my favourite bands with my friends.

    What our clients say about Matthew

    Would recommend! A friend recommended Butcher and Barlow when I needed to sell my house. They have been fantastic throughout the process - friendly, helpful, and kept in touch.

    Rachel

    Great service from Matthew who completed this work much quicker than I expected. He kept me informed at every stage of the process and answered any questions that I had.

    Liam

    Matt and Steph were very helpful and professional when expediting my recent sale. It was particularly difficult for me because I had already moved away and so could have felt out of the loop. However, Matt was very diligent in chasing up parties and keeping me advised until he was able to give me the news, "We've completed". Thank you.

    Lesley

    Excellent from start to finish. Matt was professional & proactive throughout what was a challenging purchase (due to other solicitor primarily!). Matt was a calming influence throughout and was extremely diligent in every aspect. Thanks again Matt.

    Ray

    Matt and the team were absolutely brilliant throughout the process - keeping me updated at all times and ensuring there were no delays at our end and chasing the purchaser's solicitor to ensure timely completion. Expertise and guidance ensured a great outcome and very reasonably priced.
