Do not use- Unprofessional Old School

Must be post covid thing, as previously used this firm for a number of years and were great. It is difficult to see how this conveyance could have been dealt with in a more unprofessional manner. Phones unanswered, then calls not returned. Enquiries sent to the wrong firm of solicitors who all seemed to be over worked on part-time working. In the end a partner had to get involved to expedite a very straightforward sale of an empty leasehold property to a FTB! Very unfortunate as I have bought/sold three other properties using an online agent where none of these errors occurred and for slightly less cost. Use this company for conveyance at your peril, you have been warned!

A representative from Green Wright Chalton Annis responded to this review on 23 June, 2025:

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your recent experience with us fell short of the standard you’ve come to expect, especially after having previously entrusted us with your conveyancing needs over the years. We acknowledge the frustrations you've mentioned, and we apologise for any inconvenience and stress this caused. These issues do not reflect the level of service we aim to provide, and we regret that they impacted what should have been a straightforward transaction. We do appreciate your loyalty in the past and would welcome the opportunity to restore your confidence in our firm.

House sale

Totally disappointed with the way in which our house sale was handled. The time that was taken to respond to us and our buyers solicitors letter’s was unacceptable. Certainly would not recommend. Very disappointed their service

First-class legal advice

Elise provided excellent legal and procedural advice and made the probate process understandable at a very difficult time. Elise and GWCA Solicitors obtained the grant of probate in record time because the documents were immaculately prepared. I recommend Elise Mason to advise on all aspects of probate and law generally - 5 stars!

Last year I commissioned GWCA Solicitors to coordinate the sale of my house in Brighton and purchase of my new house in Steyning.
The GWCA team were brilliant and outstanding in their professionalism and in the processing of my sale & purchase.
I have no hesitation in recommending GWCA for all aspects of house conveyancing.
I also recently used GWCA for arranging my 'Lasting Power of Attorney' - again this was carried out in an exemplary and professional manner.
GWCA - thoroughly recommended!

sorry but i would not recommend these solicitors through lack of information and the time things took. I know that the solicitors had Probate but when my late mothers house sale completed we still had to wait for "10" weeks before receiving the inheritance

A representative from Green Wright Chalton Annis responded to this review on 08 January, 2025:

June, we have discussed the above claims with the Partner and Solicitor who dealt with this case. Although you were not executors in this case, we kept you and other parties, updated as far as possible, evident from the record of all correspondences regarding this case, showing regular communication with the family. It seems that on this occasion there was an issue with a utility company which was the main source of the delay after the sale which you were informed of. Initial feedback to the solicitor was positive, it is disappointing that you do not feel satisfied with the service you have received. If you would like to discuss the above further please email [email protected].
