House conveyancing

The nature of the conveyancing we set Will at Shacklock's turned out to be not quite as straight forward as we thought but he guided us through the various challenges and with his expertise and advice it was all finalised and success was achieved. Thanks again Will for your help and we will, obviously, recommend anyone we know to use Shacklock's and yourself.

Probate and Conveyancing

Very Professional and extremely friendly in both my dealings with Tom during probate after the passing of both my mother and father. The same applies with Will in conveyancing, dealing with the sale of my late fathers property. Was always contactable when I was chasing progress with the purchasers legal team. I found that Shacklocks are not just professional in how they operate, but they come across as very friendly and make it feel like a family affair when carrying out our meetings. Well done done to all.

Reconstitution of house deeds and sale of same property

We were recommended to Shackocks by another solicitor in Mansfield who could not, due to workload, take the case on. At our first meeting in August 2024 we were told "dont be surprised if we are still in contact at the end of the year" Between August and November very little, if anything happened. Communication was virtually nil, we felt our case was just being left to oneside.Then in November 2024, the application to Land Registry for new deeds went through remarkably quickly for a Government dept, around 10 working days. What happened between August and November we will never know for sure! Then more delays, even though we had a buyer keen to complete, the case dragged on until final completion at the end of February 2025. The delays cost the Executors nearly £4000. And finally Shacklocks held on the the money from the property sale for a month, even though they had been told that an Executor account was not legally required but the account set up could be accessed by all executors. As a final insult, their accounts department said no interest would be paid on the money held as the interest due was only £1.11 and anything below £60 would not be paid. It was pointed out that anyone could find an account that would have paid over £200 in interest but in the end Shacklocks paid out interest of around £135 using 1.7% as an interest rate. So would I recommend Shacklocks, NO. Its got one star because of a helpful receptionist.

Sale of previously rented terraced house in Ilkeston Derbyshire

Selling an ex-tenanted terraced house can be tricky, particularly if it's one that is pretty old and quirky! This one had a collection of 'out houses' that presented a few issues. William gave us sound advice and responded professionally to the purchaser's questions. The issue didn't prevent a sale because we feel it was dealt with professionally, swiftly and competently by our knowledgeable solicitor William. We'd always be happy to recommend him.
