Really poor, kept missing important details and tried to incorrectly charge me 3 times. I kept having to pick up their errors.

This review is for a different branch.

Had a great experience with these guys about 10years ago so used them again recently, but really regret it.

A huge amount of errors that I had to pick up on and point out to them. Incorrectly charged me on more than one occasion.

Poor response and very blunt emails, obviously have taken on too much and can't deal with it.

Too many errors to risk using them again.

Great Service & Well-Looked After. 100% Would use again

This review is for a different branch.

Fantastic service from GA. Easily the smoothest home sale experience I've ever been through. I'll be using them for my Will next and they'll definitely be my go-to solicitors for any future needs

Outstanding service

This review is for a different branch.

It is with great pleasure that I am able to state without fear of contradiction that Gill Akaster has proved to be an outstanding source of legal assistance. Over many years, when legal services have been required we have had no reason to complain about any law firm, but what makes GA outstanding is their going that extra mile in providing a very prompt, personal touch.
I can recommend their professionalism to any who ask.

Disappointing

This review is for a different branch.

Expensive and ineffective service. Frequently having to remind them about details of my case although very efficient when sending out bills! Definitely one to avoid.
