Slow

2

I was generally happy with the solicitor but they were hard to reach and they took too long to respond to emails. I wish they wouldn’t take on more clients than they can manage because it’s stressful having to wait for answers like that

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate that buying a property can be a stressful time, and we're sorry to hear that you felt we could have responded more quickly to emails. We achieved legal completion just 9 weeks after receiving your signed instructions. This is significantly faster than the UK average for conveyancing timescales, particularly during a period of extremely high demand as many clients, including yourselves, were keen to complete before the end of the SDLT holiday. Team Spells worked diligently to meet that deadline, and we are proud of the efficiency with which this transaction was handled. Describing the service as “slow” is, in our view, an unfair reflection of the hard work and commitment shown by the team throughout the process. We are pleased to have helped you achieve a successful completion in such a competitive timeframe and wish you all the best in your new home.

Good service in what was a really busy time. Would recommend

It was busy time but I always felt that Donna had time to speak to me and returned my calls when I asked for a call back.
The advice I received was straight forward and easy to understand and any queries I raised were dealt with efficiently.
Thank you

Overall very good. I would give 4.5 stars but no option to do that. I did feel I had to chase but this was also down to waiting for others to get back to you which you can’t control.

Hard to communicate via phone.
Email was always the best way
Slow to update me
Didn't push the convacancy through quick enough , I thought , seemed to drag the process out .

We are sorry to hear that you feel the process took longer than expected. While we always strive to progress transactions as efficiently as possible, some delays are unfortunately beyond our control. In this case, much of the delay was due to the buyers’ solicitors taking longer than usual to raise their initial enquiries. We are always looking at ways to improve our service, and take all feedback regarding communication on board.

Great experience top to bottom. I was a first time buyer with little knowledge of anything surrounding a purchase of a property. Levi Solicitors (and in particular Team Spells which is the team I was assigned) were very helpful throughout the 8ish week process. Would highly recommend.
