Convey Law Ltd.

I first have to give Convey Law kudos for a brilliant conveyancing experience last autumn and that was the reason we chose them again. And things looked really positive, at first, last December. Our conveyancer was prompt and communicative... we were really happy with her ... but then our case was handed over to another conveyancer and there were repeated delays and errors that led us to contacting the MD and Head of Legal 3 days before our completion was due to go through.

We did complete on 13th March but are now waiting for Client Services to resolve a dispute about inappropriate charges on our final statement.

Two weeks post completion we are still experiencing problems with the same conveyancer who has failed to answer our emails for two whole business weeks and we've asked for the MD to intervene again. Convey Law are holding onto £5000 of our completion monies on the promise of pursuing a Land Registry application but we have been unable to get an acknowledgement or update. The standard of service is a mockery and astonishingly disrespectful.

There are lots of glowing reviews on Trust Pilot - mine, from last year, is one of them - but it does seem that getting a good conveyancer is a bit of a lottery. And our experience this time has really clouded our opinion of Convey Law which is a shame. I hope the new MD is able to turn things around. Surely they'd rather have solid 4 star reviews on Trust Pilot than swing between 5s and 1s!

The service provided by my Conveyancer Haroon Ahmed was mediocre. He did not seem to know the answers to questions raised, he tried to sell us products that were not relevant to the issues that were raised, and there were issues that were missed that were only dealt with as a result of us (the client) raising them. He did seem to be trying his best, but I am not sure that this was any comfort. The only thing we were sure of, was that Convey Law's only interest is trying to make as much money as possible through additional fees. There were errors in the original welcome pack which has resulted in incorrect charges, we signed up through Optimus based on the promise of a "Fixed Fee service" which Convey Law challenged at every turn. We raised a formal complaint which finally resulted in Convey Law confirming that they would not charge over and above the original "fixed" quotation - and we have still been charged an extortionate amount of incorrect charges on our final statements, which were not provided to us until the DAY of completion, which left us with no choice but to pay the requested amount otherwise the whole chain would have been severely impacted and unable to move. Convey Law are now in receipt of ~£1300 of my funds for invalid charges, and of course have no urgency in resolving the matter and refunding my money. The exchange process was an incredibly painful experience and took nearly 2 weeks of trying to exchange (on a daily basis) to successfully exchange. We received a number of complaints from otherside solicitors and estate agent about lack of communication or ability to get hold of Convey Law at critical times, which nearly resulted in the chain falling through due to the resulting stress and anxiety to all parties in the chain. Convey Law would do well to remember that moving house is one of the most stressful things a person will do in their lifetime, but they have absolutely no regard for the human beings that they are working for or being paid by, but instead only have one interest, which is maximising profit. I would not recommend Convey Law to my worst enemy, and I will endeavour to make sure my voice is heard in relation to my extremely harrowing experience with Convey Law. This has been an extremely stressful all-consuming experience which has dragged out for 5 months. The only acceptable reply from Convey Law to my review, will be to tell me the date I can expect my refund.

Nightmare, no response to emails or phone calls. After 3 months we fired them andBromets Jackson Heath LLP exchanged in 2 days. The same update every week:

Used Convey Law for an extension to mortgage and change of borrowers. The first solicitor appointed didn't respond and was replaced. The second did not seem knowledgeable in terms of the process, lacked attention to detail in letters, and didn't send accurate information to the lender. It is still ongoing and I'm not confident this will be finalised soon.
Stay clear of this firm, may more and go with a trusted organisation.

I have recently sold and bought a property and Convey Law handled these transactions for us. They were so professional at every level. The communication from our Conveyancers Jordan and Jodie was second to none,at every stage of the process they either emailed or called us. The portal they supply is very user friendly. The costs charged were broken down clearly and were very reasonable. I would highly recommend using their services as they are superb.

I can't begin to explain the level of incompetence from 2 case handlers, especially Samera Saddiq3. An extra 6 months of time wasting and then I was over charged by £1000
Terrible at responding at to emails and phone calls, no customer service skills, in particular Jack Grout
Awful service and now I have to complain to the legal ombudsman
