Appalling!

Terrible solicitors. I wish I could give Brockbanks 0 out of 5 but there isn't a zero rating. Unresponsive, inexperienced and highly unprofessional and massively overcharged. Avoid!

Got the job done.

This review is for a different branch.

Two experiences:
1. Will. Required a home visit because of my wife's health. Sound advice patiently delivered. Will completed and minds at rest.
2. Registration of home ownership. Completed successfully despite an expected long delay from the central registry.

It took almost 6 months to get the simple document I wanted made and every one of the three drafts they gave me (including the final one) had multiple spelling and or content mistakes.

Almost two months ago I asked this company to perform a very simple task for me. They hold the deeds for some land which I own and I needed them to check a detail. It seems that this simple task was far too difficult for this company to perform as despite numerous one-sided conversations with the company's answering machine and very rare conversations with staff (including management) no-one has thus far checked the deeds. I'm wondering if they are lost or have been handed to someone to whom they should not have been given.
I have now resorted to telephoning the company every day, requesting an answer or update to my initial query but no-one able to give me answers is ever available to speak to me and the promised return calls never materialise.
I would advise anyone to think very carefully before using this company. Perhaps I am being very daring at saying such things about a firm of solicitors due to thoughts of charges against me, but I have only stated the truth.
