Shocking service - constant delays and no accountability
I wish I could give zero stars. My experience with this solicitor firm was incredibly stressful, unprofessional, and in many ways negligent.
From the outset, communication was poor and delays were constant. Despite accepting my offer in November 2024 and there being no onward chain, my purchase dragged on well beyond the expected timeframe due to repeated failures on their part. Emails went unanswered, phone calls were not returned, and basic queries were asked multiple times as if the file hadn’t been read.
After formally complaining, my case was reassigned but shockingly, the solicitor it was passed to went on immediate annual leave with no one properly covering in her absence. My mortgage offer was due to expire in just three weeks, and during that crucial period I received no meaningful updates, no clarity, and was left calling the office daily in desperation.
Worse still, I was frequently met with conflicting information and dismissive attitudes. It was impossible to speak with anyone actually working on my case, and it often felt like I was chasing shadows. The stress and financial strain were enormous, and at no point did I feel that anyone, except one person, truly took responsibility.
The only reason this ordeal didn’t completely fall apart was thanks to Joanne, who temporarily covered the case. She was the only member of staff who treated me like a human being, took the time to listen, chased answers proactively, and showed genuine empathy and professionalism. Frankly, she deserves to work somewhere that values her, because she stood in stark contrast to everyone else I dealt with.
Despite the firm’s small goodwill gesture, the disruption to my life was huge, storage fees piling up, strain on my job, and an expired mortgage offer looming over me unnecessarily (which had already received an extension). This wasn’t just about legal paperwork; it was about buying my home, and they treated it with a level of carelessness that was both disheartening and inexcusable.
I strongly urge others to avoid this firm. A conveyancing process is stressful enough, what you need is clarity, communication, and competence. Sadly, I received very little of any of those things here.
