Do not use if you want a quick sale!!
The 3 houses involved in our chain all sold within 4 days of each other (with our house and our buyers house going under offer within days of being listed), so we were all ready to proceed at basically the same time. Naively, I thought this would mean completion well within the average time frame of 12 weeks. That may have been the case if we hadn't agreed to go with these recommended solicitors from our estate agents William H Brown. I have had to chase Mereville Abroquah every step of the way. Slow at her job is an understatement, and she shows no emotion with anything, never goes the extra mile, blames everyone but herself and never apologises. We are now in week 17 and still haven't completed. A date was set for last Friday, but we were informed the afternoon before that more documentation was needed (something that should have been noticed weeks ago) , so everything had to be cancelled. A house move we were so looking forward to has been turned into a very stressful nightmare, which it wouldn't have been if people had done their jobs competently. We put our house up for sale at the end of June specifically because we didn't want to move in the winter, but that is exactly what is going to happen. After reading these reviews, it would seem like quite a few of their staff need a rocket up their backsides!! These are people's lives they are ruining. Next time I will go with a local solicitor, who would be much cheaper and probably more reliable!
