Right Legal Group Limited

This review is for a different branch.

Came over from Australia to assist my mother when her partner passed. Simpson Solicitors held all the documentation and required us to complete a form to get certified copies and said they would 'get back to us' in 14 days. Despite several emails (I got two bouncebacks to the emails send to the original advisor who had sent me my supposed Power of Attorney), I got no response from the last person in the chain. Phone calls proved fruitless (except for one assistant, Anna who was actually helpful and understand our urgency needing documentation to care for my mother) and I just got the same email from the same department saying '14 days'. Have had to request a solicitors meeting and contact the Law Society to get any information or traction. I do not recommend this company at all and suggest you only get assistance from a small law firm or be bogged down in more paperwork when timing is critical. The assistant that originally visited my mother at the time of probate also, did not follow through with changing the property title deeds and just said 'we'll do that later' meaning, we will do that for another fee.

This firm do not even deserve one star. The service has been absolutely appalling and prospective clients should go elsewhere. Right Legal were instructed in June 2022 to process my mother's straightforward probate application. We have speedily provided all information requested to keep things moving. For no good reason, the development of the probate application has proceeded at slower than snail's pace. We have politely waited weeks sometimes months for updates and these have only been provided after several emails from us. The firm has upheld two formal complaints from me about slow service and poor communication. Finally the papers came through to sign in November 2023 and the firm verified that they had been received back by them and would be sent on. Unbelievably my sister found out yesterday (April 2024) that the application has still not been submitted!!!

If I could give Rights zero stars it would be too many. This company took over 2.5 years to do a straight forward probate. We had three different legal advisors. Documents were lost, they were incorrect and try getting them to answer or return your telephone calls - impossible!
Simpsons solicitors added themselves as an executor when updating my dads Will - he had onset dementia and they told him it would be for the best and then told us we needed to use Rights for the Probate. What this resulted in was a costly and extremely drawn out Probate that was handled poorly by Rights. This firm has put our family in great financial and emotional stress. We even reported them to the Legal Ombudsman and won but it still didnt make anything happen any quicker.
Now we are battling with their Document Management Team to get the return of our property docs - its been 4 months so far and they cant even do a simple thing like that correctly.

People giving 5* reviews for the Will service - check it and make sure they havent added themselves in as an executor and if so get it changed immediately and save the sanity of your family.

I had the pleasure of a visit from the lovely Jessica this morning from the Derby office. She was very friendly and chatty and completely put me at ease. She answered my questions and explained everything to me clearly so I could understand.
This young lady is going to be a huge asset to your company and if I need legal advice in the future I shall be employing Jessica and recommending her to family and friends.
