He wasn’t my solicitor and was charged double what I was quoted If you ask someone to review it would help if you put the correct solicitor

A representative from Paris Smith LLP responded to this review

Thank you for leaving a review. I have spoken to the lawyer who dealt with your matter. As you know, there were significant issues with your pension company, the title to your property and the occupational lease. There was a significant amount of lawyer time and effort taken up to resolve these difficulties, and that work was outside the scope of our original fee estimate.

Can’t fault anything

We instructed Ed Watson to do our conveyancing as the solicitor we originally instructed was taking far too long 3-4 months so far Unbelievably Ed got the whole matter completed in 3-4 weeks. He was very diligent, friendly informative at every level We would have no problems in recommending Ed Watson and Paris Smith in the future

Because of the employees of this company my family will become homeless for a month or more. After I was deceived by another company, I started looking for a new one, and found this one, with a more or less high rating, but the rating is not an indicator of the quality of the work. My wife and I reached an agreement with the lawyers of this company about a deal to buy an apartment. We were told that we needed everything to be done as quickly as possible, since the lease agreement for the apartment was coming to an end. We were assured that everything would be in the best possible way. After 1.5 months, the simple deal to buy an apartment was still not completed. When I tried to call this company, I only heard phone beeps. After 2.5 weeks they deigned to answer me and were very surprised by my indignation, but they gave me a specific time frame when we could move into our new apartment. I barely managed to persuade my landlord to extend the lease for another month. After 3 weeks I couldn't get through to them again. They picked up the phone only 2 days ago and said with disdain that the deal would be delayed for at least a month. As a result, my family will become homeless for a month or more, and all because of the unprofessionalism of the lawyers of this company. If you want to buy an apartment, I categorically do not recommend this company. Disgusting communication with clients, deception in terms of transaction execution. They just want to squeeze as much money out of you as possible, and do nothing about it. Absolutely deserved one point. If it were possible to give less, I would.

I recently used Paris Smith Solicitors for a new build, and I was very disappointed. They didn't inform me about the full costs upfront, and I ended up with unexpected charges. The lack of transparency was really frustrating, and I felt misled throughout the process. I would recommend being cautious and considering other options, as my experience was not positive.

A representative from Paris Smith LLP responded to this review

Dear Dr Negahdar We are sorry to hear you felt disappointed with the process. A fee quote was given at the outset of the transaction based on the information given to us. Your requirements then changed, which meant additional work needed to be carried out. Before carrying out that work we let you know that we charge additional fees for dealing with mortgages and you chose not to proceed. No charges were ultimately levied and we closed our file in accordance with your instructions. Kind regards. Paris Smith LLP

Delicia worked on the conveyancing of two properties. Throughout the process she was contactable and gave clear communication and guidance. The only negative was that the initial onboarding took time and perseverance to complete.
