Claire supported by Rachael at Maxwell Hodge proved to be a good choice of solicitor to see us through the complicated house sale process. The conveyancing, although somewhat delayed by the purchaser, was managed very efficiently and communication was excellent. Thanks to them for their good advice and support throughout.
A representative from Maxwell Hodge Limited responded to this review on 26 February, 2025:
Many thanks for your positive feedback for both Claire and Rachael. We are pleased that you felt well supported and were happy with our service during your recent house sale. We strive for excellent client care at all times and appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. Please don't hesitate to contact us in the future with any other legal needs.

On behalf of our whole family, we cannot thank Kristina enough for her professionalism and the handling of our case. She was so kind and patient and showed sensitivity and empathy at a very difficult time for all of us. Her communication throughout was always supportive and well explained but also reassuring. She was most approachable and always there for us all. Thank you for everything.
A representative from Maxwell Hodge Limited responded to this review on 18 February, 2025:
Thank you for your kind words, Kate. Kindness and empathy are two of the main qualities we pride ourselves on and it is pleasing to read the level of support and guidance provided by Kristina throughout the process. Please do not hesitate to contact us in the future for any further assistance.

Property sale.
This review is for a different branch.
Maxwell Hodge have been our solicitors for many years, most recently acting in the sale of our property, which was dealt with by Claire and Rachael, who was our main point of contact throughout the process. She was pleasant and helpful and arranged for us to meet at the Formby office, which was most convenient.
Thank you both.
A representative from Maxwell Hodge Limited responded to this review on 12 February, 2025:
Thank you for your loyalty over the years, Barbara. We're glad Claire and Rachael could assist you and make the property sale process convenient.

Andrea prepared our 2 Wills. She listened carefully to what we required, made some suggestions and was very responsive to any queries we had. We felt that she was experienced and professional, gave excellent advice, and she went the extra mile to prepare the Wills to a very tight timescale.
A representative from Maxwell Hodge Limited responded to this review on 14 January, 2025:

I recently had to renew my Will due to a family bereavement.
The staff were very kind and caring, and very knowledgable.
Kirsty, who drew up my new Will was very pleasant, and I was really pleased with the new Will. It was exactly how I wanted it.
Kirsty Cartwright from Maxwell Hodge Limited responded to this review on 16 December, 2024:
Hi Anne, thank you for taking the time to leave me a lovely review. I was sorry to meet you under such difficult circumstances, but I am glad I was able to take one worry off your mind. I hope you and your family have a lovely Christmas. Kirsty

Slow to respond and does not appear to be very well organised . The staff are polite when available. It just does not give you any confidence that anything will get completed.

Another uncomplicated transaction taking over 5 months and finally, delayed transfer of money followed by subsequent mistake in the accounts..

Maxwell Hodge took over five months to complete a very straightforward house purchase and after the first month or so it became very difficult to get updates from them. It was only after telling them that the purchase was going to fall through within the next couple of weeks that suddenly things started to happen.

This is the third time I have used Maxwell Hodge . Although I was very sorry to see Pamela go, the conveyancing assistant I had had the most contact with before, her replacement Demi had been wonderful. Thank you
