This review is for a different branch.

I dealt with EMG Solicitors in the recent sale of my property. Shannon was a breath of fresh air compared to some of the solicitors I have dealt with in the past. She was very quick to respond to emails, very friendly and dealt with the conveyancing very efficiently. I would not hesitate to recommend and I am already considering using her again for the purchase of my next property.

My wife & I needed to have new wills drawn up. The company was very professional in all respects & Nathan was excellent. He was very knowledgeable, most helpful & gave us very good advice. No matter how trivial or significant the question he always gave us good guidance.

Divorce Pension Split

This review is for a different branch.

I found Sue and her PA Helen to be incredibly efficient and supportive during a pension split process. They provided an equal balance of professionalism and empathy during what has been an incredibly drawn out process across the UK and Australia. It’s a 10/10 from me to Sue and her team.

Review for Eleanor Lucas

This review is for a different branch.

A divorce settlement is a difficult thing to be positive about for a man and i have no previous experience for comparison, however Eleanor was very pleasant and i do believe she always had my best interests at heart, i sometimes felt a lack of direction or advice but i am guessing this is largely down to the process and the many outcomes it can deliver.

I have used Callum at EMG for several property transactions over the last 5 years and have always found the service to be incredibly efficient and professional. Brilliantly assisted by Vicki and Janet, I would not hesitate in recommending their service.

Bavneet, Ashley and Lauren were fantastic on our sale/purchase. Showed great patience with us through what turned out to be a difficult process! Hugely appreciative of them for getting us there in the end. Can’t recommend EMG enough.

Honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better to handle my case. It wasn’t the quickest of divorces but by no means the fault of Gemma, she was on the ball completely throughout and offered support and advice promptly.

Very very upset with emg solicitors. Used them to help with a problem. Bleed my son dry with bills that were unexpected overpriced and never explained.Hidden minimum phone call times 6 min increments charging him for calls from the person we were in dispute with and seemly chatting to them for longer than any of his calls to them .Charging for e mails and separate charge for attachments to said e mail. BEWARE of the hidden costs and poor advice
