I will avoid for conveyancing. Stockton-on-Tees branch

I will certainly avoid. Poor communication, really slow in working and responding. Poor management of documents I sent. Do not respond to inquiries. Sent inquiry on Jan 4 and got response on Jan12 from TBI " I will come back to you shortly." Then no response again until Jan 25 when I sent a reminder again. They have not made it clear what is left in conveyancing process. This week when we called, we were told the relevant staff is on leave and will look into it on return. I feel it is unfair if a staff is away and our work is left pending. The carelessness I received from them is delaying the work. Their negligence is costing me. I wish i had never chosen them

Personally, my experience with these solicitors was good. Most of the time I got swift responses but every now and again it took a while.
The downfall is the online portal used to track the progress if the conveyancing process. I'm sure this would have been a great tool had it been used which for ne it was not unless I explicitly requested it be updated. In the end I did ask for the portal fee to be removed from my bill however this was denied which I found to be unfair as I had to pay for something which was never used.
Occasionally I received files through email which were corrupted which was a slight annoyance to but I respect that these things can happen and I did eventually receive non-corrupted versions of these documents.

Overall, I was happy with the service I was provided but I would not recommend the portal service I'd possible.
