Not great at first but they made amends
We originally didn't feel we got a great experience, which had surprised us given the stellar reviews. However, after seeing this, they conducted a thorough review of what happened, apologised and made a goodwill gesture which we very much appreciated. I were impressed by their willingness to go the extra mile to make things right and we'll definitely consider instructing them for our next purchase.
We had instructed them for a leasehold purchase conveyancing.
Pros:
- Thorough on the legal side: they raised and chased detailed enquiries.
- They challenged the other party effectively and defended our position well.
- Two conveyancers are assigned to the case, and they have a generous refund policy in case the purchase doesn't go through.
Cons we experienced:
- Slow responses by email — sometimes up to two weeks with no update, and some of our questions went unanswered. They acknowledged this and said that wasn't up to their standards, and I'm now confident that if I had reached out to the customer care team, this would have been addressed.
- Hard to get through by phone to our conveyancers. Once the secretary promised a callback, but it never came (even after a week). Similarly, they acknowledged this and may have been able to address this, although I would have liked this to be smooth from the outset.
Something else to note, they don't have an online platform to track documents or case status; everything came as email attachments. This is a bit of a matter of taste, and they do justify it saying it's important for the documents to be connected with direct explanations by conveyancers. So that can be seen as a positive.
