Jacobsen & Co Solicitors The aim of Jacobsen & Co is to provide a personal service to clients who value the individual and personal attention which we give to each file.

Helle Jacobsen has clients dating from her earliest years in the City: many are friends who became clients, and many are clients who became friends over the years.

Jacobsen & Co handles the sale and purchase of residential properties of all descriptions from £10 million houses in Central London to £10,000 fileds in deepest Wales.

Buying a new home or selling your existing property can be a stressful experience. We understand this and try to minimise your stress by effectively communicating with everyone involved in the process, keeping you informed of progress at all times and acting quickly so that there are no delays.

“...Our move was remarkably smooth - and we owe most of the efficiency to you. A “big” thank you Helle for all you have done over the past few months.” “...I just wanted to say a huge thanks once again for your work on our behalf. The pub looks great and the first week trade was fantastic ... Again, thanks ever so much. Simply couldn’t do it without you.”

“A big thank you to you and your team for turning around XXX Road so smoothly.

This is only my second solo property purchase but by far the easiest, despite being the most complicated.”

“Many thanks again for your great advice and insight in setting up the new tenancy agreement for me. The tenants seem to be a success and I have had no complaints from the residents or porters yet!”

“...It was great to have you acting for us – we always felt you were putting our interests first, in a way which was as human and unfussy and reassuring as it was professional and painstaking.”

“Thank you again for all your excellent help with all our property matters over the past few months.

You have been invaluable in your professional and strategic advice.”
