Lack of communication
I had a solicitor I had to chase a number of times with no response to emails, I eventually called to find out what was happening at which point a lovely solicitor called Lauren picked up my case, she was fantastic and corrected and updated lots of information that wasn’t captured initially. Unfortunately I can only score this review on the solicitor that’s pre populated in this for and was the initial solicitor. Lauren redeemed my faith in this firm as months of waiting with also no response or update left me feeling frustrated. Lauren Pearson isn’t in the list for me to recognise as a fantastic solicitor with great communication skills and human, well done Lauren.
Unfortunately as this is based on the solicitor I was initially given I’ve scored 1

Shannon Skilling - Top conveyance lawyer
Shannon was the ultimate professional , keeping us informed about all the important stuff we needed to make decisions about, and being very clear about the less important stuff. Her ability to work to tight timescales was excellent and her ability to push back with our sellers solicitor when necessary was impressive. Couldn’t fault her from start to finish , highly recommended.

Remortgage Case
EMG Solicitors was recommended to me by my broker and honestly speaking I have received an excellent service.
My case Handler, Shannon Skilling is amazing and excellent professional Solicitor. She worked within very strict time lines navigating through a complex remortgage offer.
I will recommended EMG Solicitors to anyone that needs them. If you have Shannon as you case Handler, you relax and know it will be well.

Excellent service
I was really grateful to EMG for their recent efforts on my part. They helped me navigate a difficult and stressful time successfully and several departments worked together to help me resolve several issues at the same time.
