Shocking

Was given a list of solicitors who specialise in shared ownership properties and these were on them. I instructed them to act on my behalf on 22nd August and sent them £400 as requested so they could start the local authority searches etc. The did not reply to my emails nor the sellers solicitors emails, I phoned them on 14th October and asked where they were upto and was told searches still not done so at this point I emailed them on 16th and 17th and instructed them so stop acting on my behalf immediately and as per usual no reply. I called them on Monday 21st and told them to stop as the new solicitors could not deal with the mortgage company as Talbots were still sending documents out. I phoned on 24th to clarify they had in fact stopped only to be told they had finally done the searches and that I would receive a partial refund and had the phone put down on me. I have since going Yell reviews about them and their lack of communication

Family law

My experience from start to finish with Matt Roberts at talbots law Dudley has been outstanding, every time I needed to speak to him he was available unless he was at court, but he always got back to me. I felt that Matt went above and beyond on my case, to get my child’s wishes and feelings heard. We had a great outcome. The advice was given to me.

Absolutely amazing firm to work with, helped me massively, very prompt in relaying information between myself, the respondent solicitor and the court.

I could not have asked for better treatment and care than what I recieved from talbots and should I need them I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

Thankyou Samantha and team!

Excellent service

I cannot put this experience into enough words to describe how amazing it was. My Solicitor and legal team assigned to me were incredible. Arti was phenomenal in every area involved with my case. She was informative, proactive and very much on the ball. Communication was excellent and prompt and she made me feel at ease with every aspect. I am so thankful for this firm and Arti for their care, professionalism and support. I would highly recommend this Solicitors to anyone looking for first class service with cases that need tenacious dealings.
Thank you once again for everything you did for me and my family.

My husband and I have just taken advantage of free wills month, and had our wills drawn up by Jesse Layton.
Jesse was clear, helpful, polite and thoroughly professional - he made the whole process easy.
I would definitely recommend the experience we both had, and efficient and effective service provided.
If I required any other legal advice Talbots Dudley would be my first port of call, simply based on our interactions with Jesse.
Thank you again.

Where do I start

I spoke with Jo if that’s here real name as she was reluctant to give it me.

I asked her about details for writing a will and she gave me the prices and vague details on what would be comprised in the Will writing service.

Upon asking her how long it takes to complete the process, she didn’t have a timeframe and said it’s something that has to be asked, To which I said surely there is an average timeframe for a basic will being written, and she said she doesn’t know.

I said as our first point of call it’s important you have all the information so we can make a calculated decision on whether to go with your company or another company to which she got defensive as she didn’t know and put the phone down.

In my honest opinion I’d refrain from using this company if their staff are anything like Jo and use waldrons up the street who are friendly and have all information at hand
