Great Service

I recently had the pleasure of working with Pictons for the preparation of my will, and I cannot recommend their services highly enough. From our first meeting, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism and a deep understanding of estate planning. They took the time to listen to my concerns and preferences, providing personalized guidance throughout the entire process.

They explained all the legal jargon in a way that was easy to understand, ensuring that I felt confident and well-informed in my decisions. Attention to detail was remarkable, and I felt reassured that my wishes would be accurately reflected in the final document.

The entire process was smooth and efficient, and my solicitor was always available to answer any questions I had, no matter how small. I truly appreciated her empathy and understanding, making a potentially daunting task feel manageable and straightforward.

Thanks to Pictons Solicitors, I now have peace of mind knowing that my will is in order. I would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a compassionate and skilled solicitor.
Thank you for your outstanding support!

I had my mortgaged dealt with by a solicitor of the firm and for me it was and quick. Didn't wait for them too much in fact everything went smoothly. I will use them again for this or any other legal problem it might arise in the future.

I could not speak highly enough of Pictons

This review is for a different branch.

Siobahn has been my rock through a very long and contested divorce. Her commitment to ensuring that justice prevails, is evident. Siobahn makes herself available to me at the drop of a hat and goes above and beyond to support me legally and emotionally. I can’t thank her enough and could not imagine going through this awful process with any other firm representing me.

Steer clear.

Steer clear. We hired Pictons for conveyancing. Very slow to draft the contract, only gave us updates when we pushed them, the documents had mistakes and they became evasive when questioned. We were eager to complete the sale just to get rid of them.

Obtuse, Slow, Entirely Unsatisfactory

This review is for a different branch.

We hired Pictons to process the sale of my late grandmother's house to a cash buyer. The experience was nothing short of painful. Although the legal procedure was a relatively simple one, they had to be constantly prodded to get on with the paperwork, and we were forever having to chase them for updates. More often than not, the employee assigned to our case was simply unavailable. It's a wonder the conveyancing was ever completed. For the rate we were paying, one would at least expect a decent service, if not an excellent one. To add insult to injury, once the sale finally went through, Pictons charged us an additional fee to transmit the funds to our nominated account immediately, despite being told explicitly that we did not want this option. When we complained and tried to get the money charged on this additional fee back, they simply ignored us. Outrageously poor service, and very little value for our money.

Appalling experience with this firm

This review is for a different branch.

Appalling experience with this firm. They said they would charge a certain amount as a pre-payment at first meeting then charged double with no explanation. When contemplating suicide they said "we can do a will for you".

Made a complaint to the Legal Ombudsman and instead of awaiting outcome, decided to go ahead with a claim for fees allegedly owed (three figures).
