From day one Boys & Maughan took the stress of buying my property away. Great commutation, friendly, helpful, informative and supportive. I was dreading the whole process but it was actually a great experience.

Overall good service and support in what was a short, 3 parties, property chain, that through no fault of my solicitor became bogged down by the buyers solicitor at the bottom of the chain agreeing Exchange and Completion dates then 2 days before Exchange raising many queries which they had not bothered to raise in the previous 14 weeks.
My solicitors, the practice I am doing this review of, dealt with this sequence of events very well and kept me informed of progress.

The reason for the 2/5 rating was due to:
- errors made by my solicitor (incorrect information given and not rectified in a timely matter)
- long periods of no contact between myself and my solicitor and my solicitor responding to the buyers solicitor
- never updated unless I reached out
- the branch advising I’d be called back the same day or following by my solicitor and this rarely happened. I had to chase
- escalation to the branch manager and then only work moved quickly
- I progressed my file by chasing third parties and waiting in hold such requesting specific documents to progress my file.
The overall impression I got was my solicitor had a dedicated 1 hour slot per week to progress my file and then it was left until the following weeks slot.
For the fee they charge, I was not satisfied with this service

I would choose Boys and Maughan again when i buy or sell a property. I did find the elos online system a bit troublesome to use, but no doubt it is an essential part of smoothing the process. A shame that my buyer didn't use a solicitor who was equally efficient.

I particularly like the contact from Conveyancing. My only criticism was that all correspondence was not addressed to me, my name was admitted. I realised that the correspondence is the same/ish for all clients however to not be addressed by name is in my view impolite.

Leah (Chambers) was extremely helpful and efficient during our house sale which we had to accelerate in advance of the normal timeframe for personal reasons. She pushed it through as requested - clearly brining the purchasers' solicitor on board, and throughout the process she was friendly and communicated clearly.

Although I didn't meet the solicitor for the sale of my late aunt's bungalow, the service I received from both solicitor and estate agent was efficient and professional. The sale went through speedily and I was kept informed throughout.

Overall the experience was good but I did have to chase a couple of times to get a response. I appreciate that with stamp duty increases etc and everyone trying to move at once put a lot of pressure on conveyancing firms but when I had to chase several times for someone to acknowledge me on more than one occasion, or when my estate agent seemed to know more than my solicitor, it did become a little frustrating. However, overall the experience was good and I am still using them for my purchase. They are thorough which is a very good thing and can argue on your behalf to get what you need to get. So yes I would recommend them as a conveyancing solicitor firm.
