Solicitor review

5

4 WEEKS from acceptance of offer to exchange of contracts on a house purchase…UNBELIEVABLE. We complete on our new home on 16/12/24 and will be in for Christmas. We were told to expect 10-12 weeks at the outset. Milners Solicitors were great throughout the process. My family has worked with them and Mr John Robson a few times now and I would recommend them to anyone buying or selling a home in North Yorkshire.

Another perfect job!

We don’t move home very often, but when we do, John Robson and his team have always been there for us all the way through the transaction. Nothing is too much trouble, and John’s client care is second to none.
I cannot recommend his service highly enough. Thank you John and Rachel.

Excellent service !

A BIG shout out to the Milnes' firm and in particular John Robson, for their efficient service.
Our purchase was fraught with complications, delays and much back and forth but John and his team stuck by us, all the way and delivered in every aspect.
We thank them for their patience, persistence and legal advice thought out the process. We had full trust in them in their ability to deliver and the way the professional unwavering manner they handled our 'case'.
I fully recommend John Robson and his team at Milner's.

Professional & Friendly Service

As a family, we have used John Robson to handle various property transactions for us and I must say, there is a reason we would never use anyone else. Throughout the years we have worked with John he has always been professional, friendly and extremely knowledgeable when overcoming any issues due to his invaluable experience. Thank you John - it is always a pleasure to deal with you.

I was extremely pleased with the level of service and attention received from Milners Solicitors. I am 91 and the prospect of going through the conveyancing was daunting but Milners kept me informed of every step throughout the process

Poor client-relationship management, off-loads bureaucracy to client

3

Repeated instructions to this company led to repeated paperwork by juniors as though I was a new client with each instruction. Inefficient and bureaucratic with poor continuity in their client-relationship management, likely because it reduces the bureaucratic burden on them at the cost of increasing effort by the client. A simple reorganisation of their instruction-procedures in favour of clients’ interests would make a difference. This is a common failing in lawyers who don’t understand the importance of client-relationships, as I experienced in over a decade's work in forensic medicine. The lawyer himself is pleasant and effective.

Thank you for your feedback. In order to meet our SRA requirements, each and every new transaction requires us to send you a Client Care Letter which clients need to sign and return, and we have to send our terms and conditions for each new matter. Where we can, for example with ID checks, we will avoid unnecessary duplication and be able to use such on any new files. Thank you for your positive comments regarding the effectiveness of our lawyer, it is much appreciated.

John and his team provided excellent help and support during a difficult and stressful time in which we twice lost buyers at the bottom of our property chain and, as a consequence, we lost our first choice purchase.

A big thankyou to John and Rachel at Milners Solicitors in Harrogate. They provided the conveyancing for us recently, and were absolutely fantastic. Extremely professional, but at the same time warm people to deal with. Sensible pricing and obviously hugely experienced in all things involved in a house sale. Would not hesitate to recommend them, and hopefully use their services again in the future. Thankyou! J & K.
