Sale and purchase of property.

We found Uzma and her team friendly and efficient in all aspects of the sale and purchase
of our properties. Numerous problems occured with our vendor's solicitor and were dealt
with efficiently & calmly by Uzma. If unavailable at anytime, calls were always returned
promptly - a pleasure to deal with.

Richard Howard's team were highly responsive and helpful dealing with some deficiencies in my late father's will. They provided clear advice and were able to draft deeds to tidy up the will and allow us to move forward with dealing with his estate.

Professional, but no respect for our budget.

Lauren, Kirsty, and the rest of the team worked my case to find out if there were any wrongdoings regarding my grandma's will and her executor, which we were (are) very suspicious of. I stated that our budget wasn't very high and to let us know if we had accrued any extra fees outside of the instructions I gave them, but they recently told me "If you would like Lauren to review and advise you accordingly, her fee estimate would be £800 to £1,100 plus VAT to review and provide an email of advice", which seemed very tactical considering what they knew about our budget.

To conclude, our case wasn't resolved as I cannot justify paying £1100 to someone to send me an email, just because they spent five years studying in a classroom and have their name on a certificate.

As much as they were professional and worked our case, we wouldn't recommend this firm purely because we were likely to spend more on legal costs than what we would have achieved financially if we were successful.

Declaration of Trust - NXY.HUR00032.1

I was incredibly impressed by the work of Longmores and in particular Nat Young over the course of our case. Nat was always on hand to give his expert opinion and counsel through some difficult and sensitive moments and handled himself with the highest levels of professionalism and courtesy. His opinion was the clearest and most rationale in a case that included many outlandish claims from others and was integral to bringing it to an (eventual) conclusion.

The case did not pan out as planned, that we can't deny, and as a result the initial estimate of costs was way off. But it was difficult to predict what was to occur and when the facts changed, Nat was nimble and agile enough to change his views too. I'd definitely recommend to others.

The endless saga of a balcony repair ended with Longmores' help

After 4 frustrating months of "backwards and forwards" over a balcony that needed urgent repairs to make it safe, I approached Longmores who contacted the Management Company and the Maintenance Company - responsible for the needed repairs - on my behalf, which led to almost immediate results. Very accurate advice and decisive action; excellent!

Rapid turnaround - great value - super advice

This was in relation to a potential commercial contract dispute, and the estimation of our potential liability or potential to be sued for breach.
Concise advice within 24 hours including relevant legal precedents was first class
As a rule - Im not a fan of lawyers
This firm will make you change - like I have - your mind
Highly highly recommended

Professional, persistent and patient

Uzma helped me with the sale of my property and our next purchase. It was a difficult chain with many hurdles along the way and Uzma supported me through it. Keeping my requirements in mind, Uzma was proactive at ensuring everything in our control was completely quickly or ahead of time, and even offered 'Plan B' suggestions when things got tricky. She was able to effectively coordinate multiple parties to get this completed and her communication with me throughout the process was exceptional.

I have just completed the sale of my property assisted by Longmores who handled the conveyancing process on my behalf. From start to finish communication and correspondence was efficient and well managed. Any discussions I needed to have were straight forward and with best advice given. Their fees were fair and reasonable for the conveyance, the process was speedy and as a result I am very happy to recommend their business very favourably. Nick

We instructed Longmores following referral from our industry governing body to assist with a Director's shareholder dispute. Longmores, John Wiblin in particular was informative, robust and aggressive in asserting our position resulting in a better result than anticipated. There is no doubt without their support our position and indeed settlement will have been much more onerous. Whilst expensive, the old adage 'you get what you pay for' is appropriate. My business partner and I are very satisfied to have the matter fairly settled and behind us.

Hope we don't need to face similar in future, but will be back if we do! Thanks

Longmores were excellent. Nat Young was very good at quickly understanding a very complex situation and acting while being mindful of costs. As things progressed as I was pleased to be supported by John Wiblin who supported me through a very challenging resolution.
