What clients say about Dutton Gregory LLP
Clients repeatedly praise the firm’s expertise across conveyancing, wills & probate, family and property litigation, landlord/tenant work and probate; many note successful, smooth completions even for complex matters. Reviewers value clear, prompt communication, responsiveness, proactivity, empathy and patience; solicitors are described as calm, professional, efficient and detail‑oriented. Clients highlight helpfulness, trustworthiness and user‑friendly processes (including a useful app), and commend staff for keeping them well informed and reducing stress throughout transactions.
As a Chartered Engineer (Civils), I require detail and professionalism in all of my dealings with third parties. Nicky Marsh and her team have excelled throughout, giving support and confidence throughout our dealings. Management should recognise their dedication and commitment; pay them some more money and keep a superb team together.

Both Katie and Amy were responsive with my questions however Amy exceeded expectations with response time, very clear instructions and detailed correspondence. She listened to my request to expedite the paperwork where possible to avoid additional costs and finalised the work in very short order. Greatly appreciated!

I instructed Dutton Gregory on my first commercial property purchase. Whilst the transaction itself completed successfully, I was disappointed with the level of service and advice I received. During my own review of the completion statement, I identified several significant errors, including the omission of rent deposits for two commercial units, rent paid in advance not being accounted for, and an incorrect Stamp Duty Land Tax calculation. Had I not queried these figures myself, I would have overpaid by over £13,000. Whilst mistakes can happen, I would not have expected errors of this nature or magnitude on a completion statement prepared by a solicitor. I was also concerned that a charge document submitted to Companies House contained my signature and my witness's residential address, which became publicly available. I later discovered that this information could have been redacted before submission. My previous experience with a similar Companies House filing was that such information had been redacted as a matter of course, so I had no reason to believe this document would be treated differently. My concern is not that they failed to follow an instruction—I wasn't aware there was a decision to make. Rather, I would have expected a solicitor, particularly knowing this was my first commercial property transaction, to advise me that the document would be published in full and that redaction was an available option. Following a complaint, the firm maintained that advising on redaction was not part of its standard process unless specifically requested. Whilst I respect that this is their position, I remain disappointed by the outcome and feel that a little more proactive guidance, together with greater attention to detail throughout the transaction, would have avoided these issues entirely. For those reasons, I would be hesitant to use the firm again.

Good afternoon Chris. Thank you for providing this feedback. We understand that you have been speaking with the team regarding this, and they have looked into this and provided a response. Mark - Dutton Gregory
Where to begin? I think disastrous and expensive would be a good start, quickly followed by one of the worst legal experiences to date. Got "allocated" this outfit some time ago as the litigator for a lease extension. Began reasonably well in the hands of a Dispute Resolution Executive who subsequently disappeared into the vapour on maternity leave but without the courtesy of telling me. Impending absence only discovered from tiny type in the email signature strip. How very professional. To be replaced by a full-blown Senior Associate Solicitor at a much, much higher hourly rate. Her profile described her as a "Property Specialist" but clearly not specialist enough to be able to explain anything coherently, not to change her mind at the 11th hour and not to have any idea of where things were at any given time. From my particular experience I'd say her "specialities" were more an inability to communicate clearly and concisely - including that old chestnut answering a direct question - long, rambling contradictory emails with just a dash of inaccurate cut and paste thrown in to spice things up, racking up her very substantial fees with her indecision and stretching the matter out interminably due to an overarching terror of "the litigation risk". Discussion at later date with a different legal firm told me that whereas a litigation risk does exist in every case, all the adjournments were unnecessary in such a simple matter and, very unsurprisingly, even the Courts got sick of it all and threatened to dismiss. A request to speak to someone who could explain better was met with a wall of silence and repeated requests to keep costs down by handing the matter to another Legal Executive or junior got the same shocking inaction. The little in her favour was that - after a number of challenges - she made a few meagre attempts to reduce costs and shaved a bit off her bills. Her final shining triumph was, however, to tell me I must pay the other side's costs when she had negotiated to the contrary. So, definitely no recommendation for this lot, and especially not her. Just another long, rotten and ridiculously expensive drag. And before this firm rushes to tell me that it was all the fault of the non-cooperative Freeholder, it's true that he dragged his heels but that does not in anyway impact my view of the poor service dispensed by the so-called "specialist".
Good afternoon Me Ri.

We would like to sincerely thank Lily Benson at Dutton Gregory for her excellent support throughout our home buying process. She was highly professional, efficient, and always took the time to explain everything clearly, making sure we felt confident at every stage. Her attention to detail and responsiveness made a big difference, and she helped ensure the whole process went as smoothly as possible. We truly appreciate her hard work and would highly recommend Lily Benson and Dutton Gregory to anyone in need of legal services.

Absolutely fantastic conveyancing solicitors - couldn't have asked for a better service from Naomi Williams. Needed completion within 3 months and Naomi was excellent throughout and pushed to secure the property in the required time frame. Will only be going with Dutton Gregory moving forward, thanks!

Helen Cort is very efficient and does a great job in keeping me informed. She was willing to phone me to explain the details and time frame required. Helen worked from Monday to Thursdays but she did some correspondence over the weekends when needed that I really appreciated.I also had someone else for making my Will.

We had a really positive experience with Dutton Gregory during the sale of our flat and purchase of our new home. A special thank you to Kirsty Peto, who worked so hard throughout and always kept us updated. She was a real breath of fresh air and such a pleasure to deal with. We’re so grateful for everything she did to help get us over the finish line. Thank you Kirsty!
