Worst solicitors I have ever dealt with - avoid at all costs!
Without any shadow of a doubt, Neves are worst solicitors that I have ever had the misfortune to deal with.
Neves dealt with my late grandfather's Will Trust since he used the firm to set it up in the 1970s, and as such when my late mother passed away in December 2015 I was forced to start interacting with the firm in order to settle the estate and terminate his Trust. The Trust should have in fact been terminated some three and a half years previously when my grandmother passed away, but Neves did not act.
What was to follow when my mother died was four years of pain and agony, trying to get some sense out of the many solicitors I had to liaise with. Incorrect advice, seizing rent payments (that should have been due to myself and my uncle) in order to pay their own bills, ludicrous ideas for how to move forward and general inconsistency and ineptitude that makes me shudder to this day.
There should be a special place in reserved for Carole Hewett in particular, a woman of such legal incompetence that I cannot even begin to describe in a short review. She ultimate took on responsibility for the file and caused numerous issues that could have easily been avoided.
I would highly recommend that you avoid this firm for ANY of your legal requirements - you deserve better.
