STAY AWAY !

i unfortunately got pushed into using these solictors for buying a new buy to let property. From start to finish the service was so poor. I rung 10 days in a row to speak to Gayle who was dealing with me and was never able to speak to her as i was always palmed off. The worst part was that i was completley lied to about cost, i was told verbally on the phone it would be no more then £600 as a previous solictor had done most of the work, then on completion i get a bill for over £1600 which was crazy. I then told them i would not be paying as i was never quoted this which they fully admitted they fogot to send to me which i think is embarrasing on there part as they are meant to be the professionals. They made no effort to try and talk about this and basically told me to like it or lump it. They also took far to long to get this project over the line. I would not ever recommend this firm to any one just stay well clear of them.

Above and beyond helpful

My house sale required a stat declaration witnessed with zero time before the chain collapsed. Gemma Wright and her team were a 3rd party solicitors and helped me out so much. Without their kindness to help us our chain would be lost. They had no slots that day but were able to squeeze us in just to genuinely help.
After this we chose to make wills with Gemma Wright and had such a positive experience throughout. Highly recommended.

Moving Home (Wellfield)

I have found dealing with Pauline and her team at FJG Solicitors a rewarding and efficient service. I was informed every step of the way of what was happening and when there were some unforeseen issues to deal with quickly, Pauline advised me immediately,and when required, advised me what action too take based on her experience of these issues. The value (cost) was excellent.

Overall, what can be a stressful situation, was made much easier by Pauline and her team, and because of this, at no stage was I in panic mode. Thank you..

Happy ending

Well both Pauline and Coral were excellent from the start.

They were constantly updating me with what was happening as there was a few complications along the way.

On the day of exchange Coral worked late to see it over the line as it had been a stressful period then personally called to give me the. Good news that I was ecstatic about.

Then on day of completion had regular contact throughout the day and even after care has been great.

Really treated well so friendly and helpful would 100 % recommend to family and friends

Thank you ladies

First Class Service and will highly recommend

Excellent service and great communication throughout the process. It was easier to speak directly with Pauline and Team (Coral), when needed for updates, and transparency. Will certainly recommend as it was also good value for money and the team was amazing.

Efficiency at its best

Pauline and Coral were absolutely amazing on both our sale and purchase.

Things were dealt with at a really fast pace and they chased up all parties when necessary.

They spotted things on our purchase that lesser solicitors may have not and responded to them with aplomb.

I would not hesitate in recommending Pauline and her team in Frinton and don't think we could have found a better solicitor if we had tried. We have sold and purchased three times before and the service from FJG Frinton was second to none.

Thank you all so much - you have made our dream home a reality.

Top notch service

We met today with Pauline Hodgson of Fisher Jones Greenwood, 20 Connaught Avenue, Frinton on Sea, Essex. She went out of her way to help us with a tricky legal situation and she demonstrated a strong grasp of the commercial property legal matters. I thought she was excellent.

Had amazing service from Liza Jary, she went above and beyond to get sale completed in record time. She is very responsive, always promptly respond to both telephone call and email and come backs quickly for any query. She is very meticulous and has thorough understanding of all the legal aspect of house sale. I will highly recommend her for any conveyancing.
