The Solicitor and colleagues assisted with the sale of my father's home. I have lasting power of attorney hence dealing with this on his behalf. The team who worked on my father's enquiry were very helpful, ready to explain any queries I had. They were clear about time scales, acting promptly to ensure the process was completed as quickly as possible.

Having not gone through anything like this it's hard to compare, the conversations I've had with Jordan Higgs have always been informative and have been dealt in a very professional way, so thank you very much for achieving a good conclusion for me.

i am very dissatisfied with the service i have received
not only were costs greatly inflated with no valid reason i felt intimidated by the solicitor who did not really help me feel at ease
in fact she made things much worse and made me feel worse
i have also learned she is also not an expert in contract dispute i learned at a later date

i originally signed up to a basic fee of £1500 which over night escalated to £5000+
apparently due to my claim being urgent - it was not urgent in fact to date i have still not heard from court
there was nothing pressingly urgent about it in my opinion

the solicitor repeatedly seemed to be on the side of the other party and dd not make me feel supported at all im afraid

i feel i was given inaccurate advise and have since instructed another legal person who has advised to keep the original defendent on the court order and let the judge decide
i did not feel listened to merely judged as at the time it naturally made me ill
she wrote x 2 letter to the defendents of which to date i have not received the final copy only the draft version with amendments to be done ?

Very pleased with the service we got from Hannah and her team, dealing with 2 house sales and a lease extension, we were kept informed every step of the way. The costs were layed out to us from the beginning and adhered to, I can't fault the service of the Wolverhampton office and have to say we also dealt with Sara from the Redditch office on two probates again complex but dealt with a timely manner and followed up relentlesly on a few outstanding monies owed.
