From the moment I stepped into the office I was made to feel welcome and at ease. Gemma and Alex were amazing, they talked things through with me in lots of detail for the way forward and kept me informed all of the way through. Fantastic service

I have used EMG solicitors 4 times in 5 years. Each occasion, they make excellent use of support staff who are always up to the job. I have always been given a day when I can expect a response. Once or twice the report back was to explain a delay. But solicitors and staff make sure I know what's happening and why. An expanding business who deserve their success. They have also been proactive in suggesting things I didn't know about or didn't realise were beneficial. Well worth the money.

Thanks for the great review!
Gillian and her team were “hands on” and kept us informed about each step in the negotiations. Any questions we had were dealt with quickly and efficiently. These things gave us confidence in all the steps throughout the negotiations. Thank you so much, would always recommend your services.

Thanks for the 5 stars Pamela!
I rarely feel motivated to write a negative review of a business, as running one myself, I understand the frustration that this can cause. We instructed EMG to produce a simple employment contract for a self employed member of staff in our clinic. We were quoted £900 for this. They were initially helpful. However, it quickly became clear that our emails were not being read and, despite us repeatedly chasing, the process became more and more drawn out. We responded promptly and thoroughly to their questions. They then began to repeatedly asked us questions we had already provided answers to, and then became condescening and rude in their replies. 5 months later, and we have been charged 2 additional fees totalling over £800 due to the 'complexity' of the work. The basis of this was due to information we had provided months before which required them to make more 'ammendements'. What then totally dumbfounded me is that, depsite the fact that the contract is near completion, we were informed that the department has now closed, and have been advised to instruct a new solicitor, which will naturally incur more fees. I have never encountered such a bizarre way of working. I highly suggest anyone who is in need of legal help to look elsewhere.
Hi Edward, we're sorry to read you were unhappy with our service. Our Employment team recently closed, which unfortunately affected a small number of cases. We’re aware that your colleague has already reached out to raise these concerns, and we are currently reviewing the matter. We always take our client feedback seriously at EMG so please feel free to get in touch with Beth on 0191 594 0240 or at beth.telfer@emgsolicitors.com if you would like to discuss your comments. Thank you.
I used EMG solicitors recently and cannot recommend them enough. Their advice was second to none clear advice from the initial telephone call. They are very professional if you want legal advice do not hesitate to get in touch
Thanks for the lovely review Leanne!
We have now used EMG Solicitors twice for house purchases, and they have been fantastic on both occasions. Callum, Paige, Laura and Vicky are 10/10 during our most recent move they were excellent throughout. The buyers of our home unfortunately had solicitors who were not very efficient, but tgey were brilliant at chasing things up, keeping us informed, and responding quickly whenever we had questions. They made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and well managed. We will definitely be using EMG Solicitors again in the future and would highly recommend them.
Thanks for the lovely review Ellys.
My experience of EMG Solicitors has been very positive. Everyone I've spoken to has been very helpful and I have not been kept waiting for answers to my queries. My house sale was dealt with very efficiently and kindly, much appreciated at such a stressful time. I can highly recommend this excellent team.
Thanks for the lovely review Liz, we look forward to working with you in the future.

After being let down by another solicitor firm i instructed Helen at EMG solicitors for a buy to let purchase. Due to many factors we had to complete this transaction in a short time frame so as soon as the instruction was given, Helen and her team got to work straightaway. They updated me regularly throughout the stages and kept me in the loop with any issues they felt may arise or be of concern. Everything was explained in great detail. Very knowledgeable team and would highly recommend. They managed to turn this one around quickly for me. Hopefully will be using again for future purchases.

This was a straightforward transaction that was completed in a good timeframe. The onboarding process was quick and communication was generally prompt. However, as first-time buyers, we felt unsupported throughout. We were expected to review complex documents and form our own views, with little guidance provided even when we specifically asked for advice. Communication often lacked clarity, some questions were only partially answered, and several emails went unanswered. On more than one occasion, we also had to remind the team of matters already agreed with the other side. Throughout the process, the estate agent working for the seller had more up to date and accurate information about how the matter was progressing. Overall, the transaction was completed efficiently, but we would not recommend the firm if you are looking for advice, guidance or proactive communication.

Andrew was absolutely outstanding throughout our sale. Despite several complex issues arising further down the chain, he was proactive, persistent, and always went above and beyond to keep everything moving forward. His communication was excellent, and he kept us informed and supported at every stage of the process. Andrew’s professionalism, dedication, and commitment to achieving the best outcome for us were truly exceptional. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and his expertise gave us complete confidence from start to finish. We cannot thank him enough for all of his hard work and would wholeheartedly recommend Andrew and EMG Solicitors to anyone looking for a first-class service. The level of care, responsiveness, and professionalism they provide is second to none.

I couldn't be happier with the service I received from Ashley and her team. The communication throughout was outstanding, with emails and calls answered incredibly quickly. The whole process was handled efficiently and hassle free. I would highly recommend EMG Solicitors to anyone looking for reliable and professional service.

Thanks for the great review Maurice!
We recently sold our flat and purchased our new home through EMG Solicitors, and I honestly couldn't recommend them highly enough. They made what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward from start to finish. Communication was always quick, efficient, and professional. Whenever we had pressure from our buyers or needed advice, the team was there to help and keep everything moving forward. A special mention has to go to Joanne, who was absolutely incredible throughout the entire process. She always made us feel like we were her top priority and genuinely went above and beyond to support us every step of the way. Chloe was also amazing. She was so friendly, approachable, and efficient in her communication, making it easy to stay informed and reassured throughout the transaction. Overall, the service was 10 out of 10. Not only were Joanne and Chloe exceptionally professional, but they were also genuinely lovely people to deal with, which made the whole experience so much better. Thank you both for all your hard work!
Thanks for the great review Iona!
