AVOID!

1

AVOID! Awful experience from start to finish. Rude staff who ignored me throughout the process and nearly lost me my home. They’re impossible to get hold of and vanish on important deadline days and fail to relay important updates. I honestly can not stress enough how poor the service was and urge you to look elsewhere for competent solicitors. They cost me thousands of pounds and caused incomparable stress and for their wrongdoings compensated me just £100. Once again… AVOID for your own sake.

In the process of a purchase, Riccardo Magnante - little to no communication after numerous calls, emails and messages left. Later assured me everything well ("reports produced next few days")and now is working part time.

And then past the case to an less experienced staff member with a heavy workload, who has made multiple commitments and not met any of them.

Assured me at a face to face meeting (at office) I would receive documents the same day.
It is now the next week and cannot be contacted.

I was recommended NBB by two family members, who cannot believe the lack of service.

Please find someone else, for your own mental health, just find someone else.

Excellent Conveyance Service

We recently instructed Riccardo to purchase our first home.

Ric, Anita and his team were amazing throughout.

His knowledge and expertise helped to keep us relaxed through the process and kept our house buying experience very enjoyable and stress free.

Thank you Riccardo and team.

Incredible Service

5

Riccardo has been absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. He helped us to purchase our first home, and was clear and communicative throughout, providing valuable advice and guidance and explaining all parts of the process thoroughly. We always felt assured that everything was under control! We cannot thank Riccardo and his team enough.

House Purchase

Riccardo took on our case from another solicitor part way through the process of purchasing a first time property and was always professional and friendly throughout. He has a great deal of knowledge and helped us navigate to the end result of purchase.

Steady pair of hands

5

We chose Riccardo Magnante to act for us to deal with the conveyance of our property, we experienced a few hiccups from our buyers solicitor and surveyor, which in turn lost the property we were going to buy.
Riccardo and his team were very supportive and accommodating,when we found another property, and pulled out all the stops to get a completion date by the end of March,this he achieved, sadly though the vendors were not very helpful and we moved on April 19th.
As we were in temporary accommodation we were constantly on the phone to Riccardo,at all times he was very calm and supportive,keeping us updated with the progress via early morning email or phone.
At all times we found Riccardo and Anita very professional.
We would not hesitate to use Riccardo and team again.
Highly recommend.

Professional, dedicated solicitor

5

I found Riccardo and his team to be professional and dedicated throughout the conveyancing process.
He was always easy to get hold of and patiently provided me with answers to all my questions.
Riccardo was also very supportive and offered calm, practical advice when our completion was delayed at the very last moment, going out of his way to try to help.
I would definitely use Riccardo and this firm again and highly recommend their services.

After reading the fantastic reviews about Riccardo Magnante at NBB solicitors, we chose Riccardo as our solicitor to work on our house purchase. We would not use anyone else as Riccardo truly cares about his clients and provides excellent client care from start to finish. Riccardo was highly professional, knowledgeable, proactive and decisive. As we dealt with a very tense sale which included a contract race, Riccardo went above and beyond and guided us with confidence and calmness. With 43 years of experience, Riccardo has never lost a contract race and did indeed win our contract race for us! We are incredibly fortunate that our dream home purchase was possible because of Riccardo and his amazing team, as they provided a professional and friendly service. We also worked with Anita Cockerill, Legal Secretary at NBB. Anita was extremely professional, helpful, courteous and always updated us with every step of the process on time.

I would highly recommend Riccardo and his conveyancing team at NBB as they have been outstanding to work with!
