Unprofessional, Avoid

Like the other reviewers state, similar experience with their unprofessionalism. Impossible to reach, no response, no updates. Just frustration and headaches. You have to phone them multiple times to find your solicitor, then badger the solicitor to respond to an email that was sent weeks ago. Every single time.

Highly unprofessional

If I could give zero star, I would. Avoid this legal firm like a plaque. So much disregard for customer feedback and complaint management. I was allocated a solicitor, Ashkan, by my lender and then this was passed down to Eaman and I must confess this is the worst legal experience ever. He replies sometimes two weeks after and almost impossible to reach him. The firm must really look into their supervision of staff and create stricter systems. They have an app which is almost redundant as it was never updated with the status like other firms i've used. Till date Eaman has not resolved my queries and when I escalated to his boss, Ashkan who seems to be getting paid for doing absolutely nothing has never reached out or bothered to respond to me. What a shame as I do not know how they can even call themselves professionals. Highly disappointed and I'll be reporting back to the lender.

2nd time using Ackroyd legal services

This was my second time using Ackroyd Legal for conveyancing, with Nicholas Martinez once again providing excellent, efficient service. He even offered a discount for being a returning client. Highly recommend him!

Property Transaction

Matthew Elash and Phurichaya managed my challenging case, which included probate, remortgage, and the sale of my grandmother’s London flat. Even with the added complexity of power of attorney, their expertise and excellent communication stood out. I highly recommend them for any property matters.

Purchased our first property

We recently purchased our first property and initially faced delays and confusion with our previous solicitors, especially around the annual estate charge. After switching to Stephen Mulonso, he connected us with Nicholas Martinez, who quickly resolved the issue. Nicholas's prompt actions and clear communication got everything sorted within days, and we soon had a confirmed move-in date. We're truly thankful for their service and would highly recommend them.

Professional and trusted

I’d like to express my gratitude to Alpana Shaikh for managing our remortgage with such efficiency and care. She kept me well-informed throughout the process and showcased outstanding legal expertise. The service was excellent—friendly, prompt, and thorough. I highly recommend her.

First Property

After a rocky first property purchase, I was hesitant to go through it again, but Majharul Miah’s professionalism, speed, and transparency made the experience seamless, wrapping up the process in just 10 weeks at a great rate
