Talbots made our first time buying journey a breeze! Their communication, support and expertise were 10/10.
We were kept informed every step of the way and given prompt responses to all our questions and queries. A huge thanks to Callum Simpson for his support throughout the process.
Would definitely recommend!

They say purchasing a house is one the most of stressful things you can do and using Talbots did nothing but add to the stress.
My Conveyancer (note you won't get a solicitor) lost my queries for three weeks, and then tried blaming the trainee, despite the emails being addressed to the conveyancer.
I had to repeatedly chase for updates, with some 'updates' being one sentence with absolutely no substance.
I received numerous out of office messages with no return date but with an alternative contact, who would also be out of the office.
I tried to escalate to the director of the Edgbaston branch and he was equally as unhelpful, if he actually bothered to reply.
They requested draw down of funds with the mortgage provider to then find a fault with a Fire Risk Assessment that they'd had in their possession for three months, so the purchase nearly fell through and it was only rescued by myself putting in the work and making phone calls to get the Fire Risk Assessment updated.
At one point they asked how i would like to proceed on a legal matter with zero advice or background!! I'm not a solicitor so why was I expected to answer a legal query?
They constantly provided the wrong fees and at one point disregarded the fact that I had already transferred my deposit to them and so tried charging me for that amount as well on the completion statement.
They are completely disorganised, unhelpful, are not proactive, frustrating and ultimately made the purchase an absolute nightmare from start to finish.

I am incredibly grateful for Kayleigh’s support in a PLO I was involved in regarding my son. Her expertise and dedication were instrumental in helping me with support on this PLO. Kayleigh went beyond the ordinary, providing not only legal advice but also emotional support throughout the process. Her thorough understanding of family law and her proactive approach made a significant difference. I highly recommend Kayleigh for anyone in need of a solicitor who truly cares and goes the extra mile.

As a public service announcement I would not recommend Talbots. I was referred to Talbots by my mortgage broker and trusted his advice that Talbots had got the job done for his clients in the past. Unfortunately something has clearly changed at Talbots since then. I was a first-time buyer with little experience of solicitors and almost became a no time buyer thanks to this firm. Unfortunately, communication after initial payment was very limited and I had to chase them via email and phone for responses. I was not kept updated about progress and as a result had to make a complaint 2 months into what should have been a straightforward process (no chain, unoccupied property). Once I made the complaint I received a phone call from the conveyancer (the only time I ever spoke to her) about whether I wanted to proceed with the purchase (2 months after instructing them) due to the Building Safety Act which they had never mentioned before even though it was created in 2022 (long before I started this process). Anyway, after approximately 10 weeks of getting nowhere I had to disinstruct Talbots and find a new conveyancer. I have spent time, energy, months of rent and stress on what should have been a straightforward process. The only positive I can say is that the complaints man (Pete O’Dowd) at Talbots is probably the only person who answers emails in a timely manner and offered me £125 in compensation at the end after his internal investigation. Given my experience with Talbots he is likely quite busy and used to dealing with clients who are deeply frustrated and emotionally distressed after what should be a a normal straightforward legal process. Reading other reviews it appears that my experience is not unusual so I would recommend choosing a different firm so that your conveyancing journey does not end up as mine did.

Heartfelt Gratitude for Outstanding Service
I hope this message finds you well. I would like to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for Philip and his team's remarkable efficiency in presenting an offer with such no-nonsense service.
Their straightforward approach and dedication have truly made a significant difference for me.
I am genuinely grateful for their assistance, especially considering the impressive savings of £1,000. It is rare to encounter such a proactive and effective team.
Please extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone involved. I wholeheartedly give them a five-star rating!

I can’t thank Amelia enough for the help she gave me in the sale of my property. It was not as easy a process as it should have been due to the buyers solicitors but she was always there chasing things along and keeping me totally in the picture at all times. This is the fourth time I have used Talbots over a number of years and would recommend them to anyone.

I recently used Talbots Law for my house purchase, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with their service. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and highly responsive.
The process of buying a house can be stressful, but Nancy and Isabella made it smooth and straightforward. They clearly explained each step, handled all the legal paperwork promptly, and kept me updated throughout. Whenever I had questions, they were quick to respond and provided clear, practical advice.
Their attention to detail ensured that all necessary checks were completed, and they flagged potential issues early, saving me time and money in the long run. The entire transaction was completed on schedule, with minimal hassle on my end.

My son and I recently instructed Philip Luke to act on our behalf to purchase a 4 bed HMO. Phil, ably assisted by his team (in particular his trainee, Amelia Smith) worked incredibly hard to work towards completion last week. At the start, they explained how it would work and what fees would apply. Their fees were very reasonable and there were no surprises or unexpected costs. I had many questions and Phil or Amelia would respond within a few hours at most and their advice was clear and precise. They reassured us when we worried about something and were always at the end of the phone. They are extraordinarily efficient, professional and made a very complicated purchase stress-free for us. We would highly recommend Talbots Law to anyone looking to buy or sell a property and have already instructed Phil to act for us in another matter this month.

I was recommended this solicitor by the estate agent as they deal with high-rise flats and I can say they are by far the best solicitor I've ever used.and they have been fantastic (And I've used a few). Philip and Amelia were extremely helpful throughout the whole process and always got back to me within a few hour be email or at least by the end of the day if I had any question or needed advice. I've always felt they had my best intrest at heart and if I was to buy another property i would definitely use them again. I would like to thank them for all their help and sorting everything out and getting everything in order. Kind regards Dave
