We have previously used Kings for buying/selling property and Will making. On all occasions they have been helpful, knowledgeable, professional, efficient and friendly. Fees have been quoted up front and timescales given. We would use them again and always recommend them.

Satisfied with outcome after a considerable time

A representative from Kings - Solicitors Ltd responded to this review on 11 May, 2023:

All client feedback is important to us, so thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are very sorry that your experience did not match your expectations and we have listened to your concerns and comments. We agree that the matter became protracted due to various third-party delays which caused both you and us some frustration. We kept you fully informed and fortunately were able to move other aspects of your matter forward while these were rectified. Despite the delays, we are pleased to say that we were able to conclude your matter within our estimated timescale, with the final costs being slightly lower than our original estimate. We would very much like the opportunity to assist you again in the future, so please do get in touch if the situation arises. Similarly, if you would like to discuss this particular matter further, please do not hesitate to call and ask to speak to our Director, Richard King, who is also our Complaints Officer.
