Excellent service

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.

Terrible company, shocking communication

Our experience with Conveyancing Direct was a total letdown. It felt like we were completely in the dark, especially as first-time buyers, thanks to their lousy communication. Going through the complaints process, we were constantly brushed off, pretty much putting all of the blame on us for not magically understanding a process we hired them to guide us through. One of the most frustrating things was receving all of the crucial documents we needed, including the fixture and fittings form, DAYS before exchanging. Most of these documents were dated four months prior to this but apparently that's completely normal to be unaware of the details of the house you are buying until it's too late? I know solicitors are typically slow and require you to chase a lot, but when the company are failing to reply to complaints within their own 'prescribed time frame', you know something is wrong. And when they eventually did, they managed to send it to the wrong email addresses entirely - superb attention to detail. If you are purchasing through Connells and have been connected to this company, don't do it. Just Google a well-reviewed local solicitors and use them. Our sellers were also using Conveyancing Direct and we thought it would make the whole process smoother, but I don't think they were handled by the same office, let alone the same team/person. And if they were, I have absolutely no idea how they can manage it so poorly as the reason we were forced to exchange so quickly at the end of the process was due to how frustrated the seller was with them too. There's plenty more we could mention, but in short: avoid them at all costs. The endless bad reviews speak for themselves.

I have nothing but praise for Harry McNeill. He was professional, courteous and personable and a credit to this Company. He always answered any queries promptly and efficiently , especially during this difficult pandemic. I would have no hesitation in recommending him for conveyancing work.

I couldn’t fault Harry McNeill this efforts!!!

I couldn’t fault Harry McNeill with what he has done on working through the sale and purchase of my file at the beginning of November. I didn’t appreciate how difficult a sale and purchase would be and the amount of hoops that had to be jumped, let alone with it being in the middle of a pandemic. Harry constantly kept me up to date by email or dropping me a quick call with both the sale and purchase and went above and beyond to get this across the line which you can imagine is quite emotional rollercoaster from start to finish. Harry was professional through and through. Many thanks for use of your services through which we all know is not an easy time for anyone let alone trying to move in the middle of national lockdown!!!

Nothing but praise for this form of conveyancing. Yes it took several days to be assigned a lawyer after signing up but that is down to a national surge in house buyers hoping to complete before the stamp duty holiday ending. Everything is very clear and no phoning secretaries who only see a solicitor once a week and take days replying to emails. Instead, you can read documents and letters online and upload your own. This group have been very quick and efficient and completion looks well on course to beat our wildest expectations.

Overall a positive experience with a very difficult and complicated transaction. Stean was amazing, committed and approachable throughout, I felt as though we developed a very good client / customer relationship! I think the service depends on the solicitor you get but I would recommend them knowing Stean is head of conveyancing and delivered a very positive service under very trying circumstances, with assistance from Samina who also played a positive role in my sale! Thank you
