I needed to get a ID1 verification for a Land Registry transaction. Finding somewhere in York was a nightmare as not many solicitors do them. Luckily I found Will at Lockings. The process was quick and efficient, taking less than 30 minutes. The experience was professional and friendly and I would not hesitate to use Will/Lockings again.
A representative from Lockings Solicitors responded to this review on 27 August, 2024:
Thank you for your review! We're glad Will was able to assist with your land registry matter quickly and efficiently. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to helping you again in the future. Best regards, Lockings Solicitors

House sale was transacted with frequent updates and clear communication throughout. Thank you.

Mike
Collected on:
It is a long time since I bought and sold a house and so I was surprised that it has become a process that requires the seller/buyer to do so much leg work.
Lockings on-boarding process is slick and at the out set it is clear what documentation is required from the seller. As the process develops and specific questions are asked by the buyer's solicitor these are passed straight through to the seller - even if the answers/documentation were provided at the outset.
When issues / questions / requests arose there was always a significant delay in returning phone calls (if was never possible to be put straight through to someone to talk to). The completion process was fast and efficient with good clear communication taking pace.

Lockings were excellent with this transaction. From contact to completion, timescales were just under 8 weeks. This was a limited company property purchase and all went without a hitch.
Big thanks to Craig and his team.

I used Lockings for selling my house and buying a new house, I could not recommend them enough. Every time I emailed or rang up someone always got back to me. Adele was my solicitor and she was really nice and thorough. Thank you for making it a pleasurable experience.

I mainly dealt with Adel when selling my house in Beverley, Sam was also quick to answer any questions when Adel was not available.
I found both to be extremely professional and helpful. They responded almost immediately to any queries, making what was a stressful time a lot easier

Craig from the Beverley branch has now been the conveyancer for two of our house purchases and he is fantastic. I have never waited more than 30 mins for an email back even when I email and more than likely ask the same thing numerous times he always has the patience to get back to me. He is quick in his work and an all round generally great solicitor - thank you Craig.
We are also grateful to Eddy at the Beverley branch who will always give us great advice and help push through our previous transactions. Really do recommend this firm.
Thanks again guys for all your hard work 😊
