      Highly efficient and communicative

      I received an excellent service from Hewitts Solicitors in Bishop Auckland. The reception team were consistently professional, polite and efficient in passing on information. Both the admin staff and the solicitor kept in touch throughout the entire process providing updates and ensuring everything stayed on track within deadlines. Their communication, organisation and overall professionalism made the experience smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend.

      A very long process for conveyancing with no chain either side when purchasing my property. I had to chase everything. Communication was very poor and only spoke to Emma twice during the whole process. Every time I rang to speak with Emma I was told she was on another call and spoke with Emma’s colleague who advised would pass on my enquiries. Emma never rang me back after any of the calls I’d made. Poor customer service really. I got sent my searches a month after solicitor had received them.
