Excellent service from Robin. I feel he has gone above and beyond, and I have appreciated his patience with all my various queries and some challenging circumstances. I have felt confident in his knowledge and wouldn't hesitate in recommending him for conveyancing.

From start to finish, this firm was brilliant. Gemma was kind, considerate and overall wonderfully supportive during a very challenging time. My experiences were given time and patience whilst coming up with a plan. While it was still very stressful, with Gemma’s help, I found the process very healing. Every step of the way, the information is laid out clearly and concisely, if there is something that needed further explanation, Gemma was there to guide me through it. I couldn’t recommend this firm enough, they’re professional yet supportive and warm. Thank you so much, Gemma, your help and kindness has meant so much to me!

My purchase was private amd Carolyn kept me informed of how things were progressing. She was thorough in her dealings with my sellers solicitor and ensured that all matters were taken care of. I would have liked a bit more communication as to timescale at various points, especially at the beginning of the process. However, in the end, things were quick.
A representative from Ward Gethin Archer Limited responded to this review on 28 April, 2025:
Thank you for sharing your feedback, Alison. We are pleased to hear that Carolyn kept you informed throughout the process and handled your transaction thoroughly with your seller’s solicitor.

Antiquated, outdated and unorganized.. a simple house conveyancing matter feels like its happening despite of them not because of them.
Very little advice or work being done, they essentially just seem to pass documents back and forth. Its also extremely frustrating they they prefer to avoid modern systems everyone else is using, my last two house purchases over the last 14 years have been completed using electronic document handling,
WGA send mixed signals in one email after being pushed they say they use virtual Signature, in another they outright refused to do anything electronically. outside factors apart a process that should have taken 2-3 weeks maximum is delayed with hard copies taking weeks to pass between all parties..
I'd say its time they embraced the future but its not even that, they seem stuck in 1993 whilst everyone else has been using electronic documents for 20 years...!!!
No real level of attention and when you raise an issue there is no apology or acknowledgement, its simply ignored and they carry on regardless.
