Regular, informed and timely updates on progress of both our sale and purchase. Excellent support and accessibility provided by our conveyancing solicitor Tom Mclaren-Roberts.

Buying a home can be a stressful experience. Buying a UK home outside of the UK can be fraught with difficulty. Kim and her team made the whole process logical and easy to manage with attention to detail at every point in the process. I wholeheartedly recommend their service. 5 star conveyancing.
Tom Mclaren-Roberts brilliant in contact daily. Completed in ten weeks and before the dead line, absolutely brilliant. Top company.
Please do not use this company! Poor communication and not doing what they said they would. Phone conversations were as if I had just woken him up! Told blatant lies to get out of awkward situations.
Excellent! Excellent Excellent! Tom Mclaren-Roberts: Very efficient, swift responses and gets things done. Supported us through a house sale and would highly recommend his services. Thank you Tom. Take a bow!
The company kept me updated regularly and were very efficient.I found them to be very engaging and helped when I did not understand anything. The completion of the property was around 13 weeks.The company is very security aware being internet based.The staff were very polite and explained everything I needed to know.
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Tom McLaren Roberts from Conveyancing Direct Limited for my property transaction, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of professionalism and care he provided. From the very start, Tom was approachable, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive, ensuring that all my questions and concerns were addressed promptly and thoroughly. He guided me through every step of the process, making what could have been a stressful experience seamless and straightforward. His attention to detail and dedication to securing the best outcomes for his clients truly set him apart. I always felt confident that my case was in the best hands. I highly recommend Tom McLaren Roberts to anyone looking for a trustworthy and efficient property solicitor. His expertise and commitment to excellence make him an invaluable asset to Conveyancing Direct Limited."
An outstanding experience from start to finish. The level of effort, knowledge, tenacity and communication shown by Tom Mclaren-Roberts was not only better than we could have ever imagined but he went above and beyond in every aspect of our move. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. 100% recommend. Conveyancing Direct are lucky to have you doing such a great job, Thankyou Tom.
If I could give a 10* rating I would. I was in a predicament at the start of the year. I had instructed another solicitors in November 2024. However, by the start of January 2025, nothing had been done with my file, despite chasing via email and calls. I needed to change and thank god I changed over to Conveyancing Direct. Now I don’t know whether this was fate because of my experience up until this point, but I was allocated Tom McLaren-Roberts. Wow! What an experience and journey this has been since January. I can’t speak highly enough of this man and how professional he has been. He has redeemed my faith in the process. Attention to detail, advice, guidance, support, Tom has been truly been there for me every step of the way. But the thing that I liked most about Tom was his responsiveness. Regular calls and emails updates - really showing you that things were moving in the right direction. If you are looking to buy or sell a property. Then ask for Tom to be allocated to you.
I can’t recommend Tom Mclaren-Roberts enough. We had constant communication, lots of feedback and amazing guidance. After accepting our offer in Jan we are already completed mid March. I am so happy with his work and will be recommending him highly. Thank you Tom!
Horrendous Service Stacey was working on behalf of my property buyer and had no desire to complete the transactions in the 13 months she had the case. Ignored most communication from the buyer, estate agent and my solicitor, gave false updates and demonstrated a clear lack of knowledge, ability and professionalism throughout. If you DON'T want your property transaction to go through then that is the only time I would suggest considering this company
Would not recommend this firm. They were really difficult to get in contact with throughout, I was transferred between 3 different lawyers, and the sale took over 7 months. The sale was nearly lost due to delays and lack of communication from the lawyers.
Would highly recommend, very good communication and excellent service.
If no stars was an option then I would give it. I struggle to understand why William H Brown via Sequencing Direct recommend using this firm, which they did to both us as sellers and the buyers. To be fair our solicitor (Magda) was not bad in the end and became more proactive and communicative/ helpful but this took frequent communication from me. The buyer’s conveyancer/ solicitor working for the same firm (Paul Baldwin-Jones) was terrible and almost lost us our house sale. He seemed to specialise in being uncontactable, patchy and inaccurate communication and incompetence in managing the process . We were lied to, mislead and kept uninformed. Both parties had to resubmit documentation that was mislaid and despite us constantly checking that everything was in place, requests for further information kept coming and the process was delayed creating stress and extra costs. Gross incompetence/ negligence and unprofessionalism making a straightforward process complex and painful, would be my summary. The website claim “Conveyancing Direct seek to facilitate property sales and purchases with the provision of a professional service which recognises that moving home can be a confusing and stressful event that should be as transparent and brief as possible.” is quite frankly laughable. This company made the process feel like wading through treacle: it was made more complex; there was a complete lack of clarity and the process was drawn out significantly due to lack of communication and unresponsiveness. Lack of professionalism at best, gross incompetence at worst. I have already submitted a Feefo review for Sequence but am reposting here as I notice the number of reviews on here echoing very similar experiences. I would not usually mention names but it appears that peoples' experiences seem to differ greatly dependant on who was handling their case from the other reviews.
I received excellent service from Tom McLaren-Roberts. Great at communicating and made the process feel easy.
We were very lucky to get Emily working on Our case, we've been ensured by people working with Her before, that She's the best solicitor that We could get, and She certainly meet and exceeded our expectations. Conveyancing direct and Emily make our house buying experience extremely easy, from very beginning to contract exchange. Highly recommended
My wife and I recently moved house and we used Conveyancing Direct for our sale and purchase. The service we received was outstanding. Clare was our main point of contact throughout and was a pleasure to deal with. She was brilliant at keeping us up to date regularly, chasing the other parties involved and answering anything that I was unsure of. Along with Mel, Alison and everyone one else who was involved in the process, they are an amazing team combining professionalism, efficiency and friendliness. With that combination, it kept what could have been a stressful process pretty much stress free. After my experience with them, I would highly recommend Conveyancing Direct :)
I was alomost loosing my first home was very disappointing from my case worker Hannah Dowry she was very unprofessional not answer the calls no reply the emails but then my new Case worker Nadia Khalifa took over and no doubt she is very professional very polite helpful and she did secure my deal. If any one using Conveyancing direct then Nadia Khalifa is the best.Many Thanks A Subhani
Buying our first home using conveyancing was not a bad idea. My case manager Stephanie has been great, providing information, updates and guide. The entire process was slower than we anticipated but In all we are satisfied with services.
Worst service by Leanne guy, donot use this company
