Dreadful. Accepted my conveyancing case (a straightforward purchase) and also willingly accepted a £300 (!) fee for initial searches, then decided that they could not proceed with my case as I was selling another property. Baffling as it is common practice to sell a property and purchase another! They then charged me £60 for the privilege for works carried out. Disgraceful customer service. Avoid at all costs.

Used meikles when purchasing a house. From start to finish everyone we spoke to and met was professional, helpful and quick to respond to any queries we had. Would highly recommend. Claire, Nicola and Gemma were exceptional. Could not have asked for a higher standard of service.

I was initally a little dissappointed as could not use my local branch for conveyancing as they were representing the seller so I used the Ferryhill. Branch instead. Wow am I pleased I did.... I can honestly say I'm impressed with the service I have received from Claire Coates as my solicitor and her assistant Nicola. As someone who has lived in the same property for 30yrs to say I was nervous about the thought of moving is an understatement However I can honestly say Nicola was so so supportive and also very prompt at answering any queries I had guiding and reassuring me constantly. Claire on our face to face today was amazing she was so so friendly and informal and very very professional and personal in her manner. I would definitely recommend Meikle at Ferryhill to family and friends in the future given my experience on this occasion

Exceptional hardship case

I had Georgia advance an exceptional hardship argument for me. From meeting Georgia to having her representation in court I couldn't be any happier. The way she asked the questions and how well she dealt with my witness who suffers so bad with anxiety couldn't of been any better. I wouldn't hesitate to use Georgia again.

My brother was in Bishop Auckland Hospital and being sent to Sunderland for life saving surgery. He needed to make a will urgently and didn't know if a solicitor would go to the hospital. After ringing Meikles Bishop Auckland and speaking to a very nice lady it was organised for Amy Dodds from the Sedgefield branch to visit. Amy was brilliant and had his will made and signed with a follow up visit all in less than a week. The service could not have been better. It was a difficult time but my brother, thankfully, came through the operation and is recovering. This was at the end of February beginning of March. Thank you Amy and Meikles for a brilliant service very reasonably priced.
