About Neilsons Solicitors and Estate Agents, Edinburgh

162 St. Johns Road Edinburgh EH12 8AZ

Neilsons Solicitors - At Your Service.

Neilsons Solicitors and Estate Agents are a highly innovative and pro-active multi-award-winning client service focused firm that specialise in residential sale and purchase.

No other local firm has won as many major industry awards and accolades as Neilsons in recent years. We are The Scottish Legal Awards' Residential Property Team of the Year 2020, 2021, 2022 & 2023, The Law Awards of Scotland's High Street Firm of the Year 2021 and The Negotiator Awards' Scottish Agency of the Year 2019, 2022 & 2024.

We have over 1250 genuine five-star reviews from happy clients on both Facebook and Google across all our branches which indicate our high levels and dedication to client care and service.

Founded in 1977, Neilsons were one of the first firms in Scotland to open Edinburgh property shops on a friendly shop front basis, rather than an imposing Georgian building.

From the outset, Neilsons sought to redefine property and legal services locally so that we were friendly, accessible, and plain talking. We speak to clients on a friendly, first name basis and we consider our firm to be highly pioneering in terms of innovation in the local property market.

Neilsons are one of Scotland's few 'One-Stop Property Shops'. Not all firms offer the same breadth of expertise in-house as Neilsons do: estate agency, sale and purchase conveyancing, wills, power of attorney, executries and other legal advice is all managed in-house by experts in the relevant field across our numerous property shops throughout Edinburgh and Midlothian.

Our basic philosophy, which regards client service to be of paramount importance, has led to the growth of the firm to the point where we are now one of the biggest Solicitor Estate Agents advertising in East Central Scotland while still retaining the friendly and informal relationship with our clients that has been the trademark of the firm since its inception.

We offer FREE pre-sale appraisals, FREE house doctoring advice and FREE initial sale and purchase legal consultations. We do not charge for Noting Interest or any unsuccessful Offers.

As part of our property sale promotion, you do not have anything to pay anything upfront.
