Professional and efficient service

This review is for a different branch.

I used Atkins Dellow to assist me with a very prolonged and complicated matter. Tim Colbran and Megan Boucher worked hard to resolve all aspects of the process and their invaluable advice and support was extremely helpful and appreciated. I would definitely recommend their service to anyone with similar relationship/matrimonial/property dilemmas. Atkins Dellow as a whole have exceeded themselves in resolving my matter and I am extremely appreciative of their services. Thank you.

Expected better

This review is for a different branch.

Positives
1. Once everything was in place, moved to completion quickly and efficiently.
2. The sale and purchase of the houses happened

Negatives:
1. When we first asked them to deal with the sale and purchase of the properties, we heard nothing about the purchase for 2 months. We knew searches could take a while to come back & it was over Christmas, so we accepted a bit of a delay. When we spoke to them, it turned out that searches had never been started because the selling estate agent had never submitted a memorandum of sale. We therefore had to pull out of that purchase due a deadline & move for another house. I would have expected the solicitor to proactively tell us that much earlier, as we could have moved for another house sooner & saved money on the stamp duty tax rise.
2. Generally felt that we were often chasing them & they weren't keeping us informed
3. The solicitor misread part of the covenant of the house that we were purchasing & we had to go back to them and clarify this with them
4. Frustrated that they wouldn't accept eSignatures on documents and we had to post everything back to them

A representative from Atkins Dellow Llp responded to this review on 02 June, 2025:

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that on this occasion our service did not meet your expectations. We note you were aware that the chain for your first purchase was incomplete and that this was unable to progress, and are pleased to note that once you had found a suitable property to purchase with a complete chain everything moved to completion quickly and efficiently. The query regarding the covenant you mention was actually interpretation of an entry on the Local Search which we clarified for you. At the present time we do not use electronic signatures for various reasons, but we have taken your comments on board and will look into this for the future.”

In 12 months I have instructed three different firms for conveyancing, and also observed the performance of the firms instructed by the other parties to each transaction. Unfortunately I only discovered Cross Ram for my final transaction. Daniel Hewitt picks up the phone, which was a unique experience and meant that we were able to have fruitful conversations in real time rather than batting lengthy emails to and fro. He is prompt, to the point and gives advice. In addition his secretary, Jan Wright, always knew what was going on with the file and so was able to progress the matter in his absence. By contrast, all of the other firms worked at the pace that suited them rather than their clients, and spent more time trying to protect their professional indemnity insurance than giving advice to their clients. I would thoroughly recommend Cross Ram.
