Firm offered £30 for me to take down my review!

I'm adding to a review, because after the last one, the practice manager at Daniel Woodman and Co called me and offered to reimburse me my £30 onboarding fee if I removed my review! I was staggered. I told him the review was an honest overview of events, and he agreed that I did not have a great experience. I asked him to put his offer of money to remove my review in writing. The phone when dead... Obviously I did not accept the offer.

Shockingly unprofessional!

This is long, but in short I strongly advise against this unprofessional firm. The service was extremely poor, at best. I instructed this firm and did all the onboarding with them and had money on acount. Then their conveyancer didn't respond to the anything from the estate agent for my purchase. No acknowdglement of receipt of Memorandom of Sale two weeks on. I emailed, called and nothing. I then found out that the conveyancer was away. I called on the day she was due back and was told she was now on sick leave and that someone would definitely get back to me the next day. No-one did. The following day, I emailed as no-one picked up the phone (something that's been a pattern throughout this ordeal). I was informed the conveyancer was back, but that she was leaving the firm that day. I asked to be forwarded to the solictor, who I'd also spoken to a few weeks ago. I was told he just left too. I asked if I had been assigned someone to progress my purchase given that two weeks had already been lost, and no-one responded to my emails. I called and left messages 7 times in the last 2 days to get an answer. No-one from conveyancing called me back. The poor family law team had to keep running upstairs to ask them to call back. Finally got hold of the practice manager Ben Few, and now it's so clear why all of their conveyancers left en masse! Awful guy. Rude, no apologies for holding my sale up, and just kept repeating my email about asking for a refund if I don't get a solictor and ignored all the others I told him about that were just requesting a solictor or even a response. He said bluntly, you'll get your money back, go elsewhere as you wish. In conclusion, if you don't want to be ignored, or your sale to be delayed, avoid at all costs. I wish I knew sooner.

This was the first time I have used Daniel Woodman. In dealing in with Charles Dibley and his team my husband and I were very pleased with the professional advice and excellent service provided. Information provided was made very clear and easy to understand throughout through a difficult time. Very courteous and friendly solicitors to deal with overall.

We would not hesitate to recommend Daniel Woodmans to friends and family. Mr and Mrs Box

Excellent service!!

I instructed Charlie to process a financial order against my divorce, and I can’t recommend him more highly. He was helpful at all stages of the process and made sure I understood everything. Thank you Charlie for making it a simple and easy process, I really appreciate it!!

Good Conveyancers

I had a good experience with Daniel Woodman & Co solicitors from start to finish. They were generally very responsive and on the ball with chasing up enquiries. All of the staff were very friendly. There were no hidden costs and I think my final bill was actually a little less than what they initially quoted. I would recommend them as a conveyancer.

Toby has been an incredible help during what was a troublesome house sale as part of a deceased estate. He was always prompt in replying and explaining things fully, and kept battling for us with a problem involving the land registry and a spurious entry on the title deed. I found him efficient, friendly, and approachable and very tenacious!
We are also using Charlie for my decease brother’s estate, whom I also have nothing but praise for. I have found Charlie an immense help and comfort during a very difficult year. It was not an easy estate to handle as there was no Will, and many strands to be resolved. Charlie is also handling my son’s divorce.

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to you all for all the care and concern you have shown us and for working tirelessly to ensure that our special guardianship went through. You gave us the confidence and strength to endure the complex case we were facing. I no If it weren’t for your analytical skills and knowledge, the matter wouldn’t have been settled by now. Thanks once again for your legal advice, time, and effort. Your courtesy and professionalism was outstanding and we would highly recommend Rachael Heale and the rest of the law firm.

You let us down. We instructed you to sell our house and purchase another in early September. NOTHING was done on our case for many weeks and then you email us to say your closing your conveyancing dept. and you can no longer continue with our case. We are 2 weeks away from an exchange date and starting again from scratch. Why take on work if you can't fulfill. Cannot recommend.
