Matthew Watson

From start to finish, Matthew and Ella were incredible. They kept us fully updated throughout every step, guiding us patiently through the whole process and taking the time to answer all our questions, no matter how small. Incredibly, we completed within 10 weeks of putting in our offer—something I never thought would happen so smoothly. It’s clear that Matthew and Ella work tirelessly for their clients, and despite their busy schedules, we always felt we had their full attention. I honestly cannot thank them both enough for their hard work, efficiency, and kindness. I’ll absolutely be using them for any future needs and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a solicitor. Thank you both for making our first home purchase such a positive experience!

Excellent service for house sale. We have just experienced the fastest and smoothest house sale imaginable! The service from Butcher & Barlow has been first rate, as has the communication. Everything has been dealt with promptly by Ella and Matthew. We would highly recommend!

Matt Watson was appointed as my Solicitor and I have been blown away by his dedication, support and timeliness throughout the whole process. Matt completely went above and beyond throughout. He was always available for me to ask questions and nothing was ever too much trouble. Matt has exceeded my expectations at every stage and I can't thank him enough for his time, patience and support throughout what was quite a stressful event! I would come back and use this company, and specifically Matt, every single time it was required and would have no hesitation in recommending him to family and friends.

I have recently had the pleasure of working with Matthew Watson and Ella Woodier at Butcher & Barlow in Bramhall for the purchase of my first home. The service provided was absolutely exceptional. If you’re looking for a Solicitor who goes above and beyond, look no further! From day one, the communication was amazing. Always available to answer any questions and addressed any concerns I had with a calming manner, making the process totally stress free. I would thoroughly recommend Butcher & Barlow if you’re wanting a Solicitor who actually cares and gets the job done. Matthew Watson is an incredible asset and would definitely use him again in the future.

I instructed Butcher & Barlow to sell my property and have to say, the service they gave me was outstanding. What should have been a simple transaction, proved to be really difficult due to the buyer's solicitor. This was no reflection on Butcher & Barlow at all. They kept me informed on progress and responded to all of my questions when I asked them. Ella Woodier was my main contact. I found her to be polite, helpful and understanding of my frustrations. I will certainly use Butcher & Barlow again for my future purchases and sales.

Many thanks to Matthew Watson who dealt with the purchase of our house in Cornwall and various complications involved. Friendly, cheerful and professional. He also knew well the area we were moving to which was an added bonus! Thanks Matthew.

Hassle Free Conveyancing. Butcher & Barlow dealt with the legalities regarding the sale of my old house and purchase of my new home. It was quite a convoluted affair involving banks and receivers. We got there in the end. Butcher & Barlow and Mathew, in particular, from the Bramhall office, deserve much praise. The service I received was reasonably priced and thoroughly professional, a straight 10/10 from me.

Matthew was amazing! We found Matthew at Butcher & Barlow to be professional and a clear communicator. I had very little knowledge of what we needed to sort out and Matthew made sure I understood everything. Emails were responded to promptly and Matthew went above and beyond to sort out our move. Should we be moving in the future, we will be seeking him out again!

You helped to make what is always a stressful process, easier to manage. Thanks for your expertise, the detailed report and your advice to get us to completion.

I strongly recommend Butcher & Barlow as expert Conveyancers. They were prompt, proactive and professional at all times. In particular I was impressed at how efficient they were in securing the searches from the Local Authority at a time when Local Authorities are under severe pressure. I wouldn't hesitate to make use of their services in future.
