Equity Release

Ashfords is one of the few Solicitor Firms in the country to offer a specialist Equity Release Solicitors Team and, is acknowledged by financial advisers and solicitors throughout the country for our experience and quality service in this specialist area.

We provide independent expert legal advice to those who wish to release equity from their home. Our Solicitors advise clients of the risks and benefits of the Equity Release product that has been recommended by a Financial Adviser and will explain to the clients the product in detail, and the legal obligations involved in the Equity Release Scheme. Our paramount aim is to ensure that our clients fully understand the legal obligations of what they are signing.

Our dedicated team endeavours to ensure that clients are regularly updated on the progress of their case and offers Financial Advisers a bespoke 'case tracker' service, from instructions through to completion, accessible via a log-in page on our website.
