Flat 4, 3 Aberdour Place

Sold my flat through your move and Gilson Gray solicitor. Gilson Gray we’re professional and diligent and made sure no future problems would arise. Any questions I had were answered fully and within a reasonable time frame At no point was I made to feel a burden for asking questions that were probably fairly elementary as far as a solicitor was concerned At all times I felt that things were under control Many thanks for your help

Great Team!

Excellent service from the team at Gilson Grey. They worked quickly, kept us informed throughout, and Douglas even worked over the weekend to ensure our mortgage and home purchase progressed without delay. Professional, responsive, and incredibly dedicated. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient solicitor.

Disappointing Service

Disappointing service. With the exception of the last case handler, there was no sense of urgency, too many mistakes and information not being forwarded or lost. There were too many different case handlers, two of which left the firm whilst handling my case! A lot of time has had to be spent by me and the Estate Agents chasing. The inordinate length of time to undertake this simple case has left me with unnecessary additional costs.

Despite very awkward solicitors on the buyer's side, who regularly claimed the had not received information etc when it was proved to wrong, Joanne kept doing her job and stayed in touch with updates. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your generous review. We're delighted we could guide you through a difficult transaction, especially given the challenges with the buyer’s solicitors. If you have questions in the future, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Hugely underwhelming service from Gilson-Grey. 8½ months to complete a private, chain-free sale. The same question kept being asked of the seller's solicitor without any explanation of why their response was unsatisfactory. Never reachable by phone. Had to chase through every step of the process, and if I hadn't, I don't believe we would have completed by now. Complaints not listened to. Cashback from the mortgage company not forwarded on to us (still chasing). I felt "stuck" with Gilson-Grey. Had it been any other service, I would have cancelled long before the job was complete.

I had a poor experience with Gilson Gray Solicitors (Lincoln) during my property purchase. Communication was consistently unreliable, with unanswered emails and calls, and my case was passed between staff without clear explanation. At the final stage, I was unexpectedly asked to make an additional payment without justification and felt pressured to do so to avoid delaying completion. Instructions around payments and authorisation were inconsistent and confusing, causing unnecessary stress. Overall, the service was disorganised and fell well below expected professional standards.

Thank you Ikra, for taking the time to provide feedback on your recent experience. I am sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with the level of service you were provided with. Unfortunately I have been unable to locate your transaction using the details provided. Please do reach out to your point of contact at Gilson Gray should you wish to discuss your concerns further. Best wishes, Team Gilson Gray.

Gilson Gray are the agent for our rental property (Specifically: Pauline Traill) and I can honestly say they are terrible to deal with as a tenant. I sold my own property and moved into a rental for the first time and they have been extremely poor to deal with even the most basic of issues. Minor issues which should be an easy fix are still outstanding, most of which were highlighted before moving into the property. The property was meant to be inspected before moving in, it must have been done with their eyes closed. I found multiple issues before moving in, most of which were easy to spot for anyone. Just do your job! It’s also no use complaining to the Head of Department Marcus Di Rollo as he’s just as poor at dealing with things.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you feel your experience has not met expectations. Prior to your tenancy commencing, the property underwent extensive preparation, including a full repaint, professional cleaning, carpet shampooing, new blinds throughout, and garden maintenance. An independent inventory clerk also carried out a check-in report. We understand that you raised a number of points at the start of your tenancy which were acknowledged and addressed where appropriate, and we have continued to respond to reported issues in line with our usual processes. We take all feedback seriously and aim to provide a fair and responsive service to both landlords and tenants.

Started the process of buying our house in January, came highly recommended by our estate agent as they said there in house solicitors would be quicker as we have no chain. First solicitor we had kept asking for numerous paperwork we had already sent and signed, this happened quite a few times which kept delaying the process. Second solicitor doesn’t seem to be doing much neither because nearly 6months down the line we’re still awaiting a completion and moving date, the property we’re buying is empty there is no chain. The whole process should be simple, quote from the estate agent you should be in by 12weeks from accepting offer. Absolutely ball ache and inches from plugging the plug on the house.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such wonderful feedback. I believe I have located your case on our system and understand that it was our case handler Heather Telfer that looked after you through the process. I will ensure your feedback is passed on to Heather and her Team and that she received the recognition she deserves. Best wishes, Team Gilson Gray.

I had an outstanding experience working with Jehnnaie Johnson from Gilson Gray (England) Ltd during my recent house purchase. Jehnnaie was incredibly professional, efficient, and provided excellent communication throughout the entire process. She made what can often be a stressful time feel smooth and manageable, always keeping me informed and addressing any questions promptly. I am thoroughly impressed with her attention to detail and dedication. I highly recommend Jehnnaie and Gilson Gray (England) Ltd for anyone seeking top-tier legal support for their property transactions.
