A very satisfied Customer

Andrew Isaac while acting on behalf of Kiteleys solicitors, was kind and efficient dealing with my husbands estate following his death.
It was very reassuring at this difficult time and much appreciated.
I have recommended Kiteleys to others.

Poor conveyance experience

Unfortunately, I had a poor experience of at Kiteleys. The solicitor needed to be more proactive with my conveyance and needed prompting re key stages of my purchase. Also , they needed to offer advice to me rather than just forwarding correspondence from buyers legal team for my comment.

Exceptional Firm

We were introduced to Kiteleys 6 months ago.
Initially for Will work, all completed fast and efficiently. Then Probate work, it's not a nice time to deal with death of a loved one but everything was so smooth and swiftly dealt with.
Now to Conveyancing experience. WOW these people are brilliant and professional beyond belief.
Well done Kiteleys.

Slow to respond, if at all

Handling my Father in Law’s Probate was an uphill struggle. They never managed to respond in full to all the questions raised in emails and it was almost impossible to speak to anyone apart from reception on the phone. They would say they’d call back but never did.
They haven’t yet returned all of the paperwork and have left two policies for me to process myself.

Disappointed with this company.

In 2021 I used Kiteleys for the purchase of a property. At first I was delighted with the service and things progressed well. Then we found the solicitor handling this purchase was continually on leave or not available....thankfully there was another person helping, but things were slow. With various problems this purchase dragged out month after month (we were actually ill with the worry). Then we got to a stage where they said exchange was iminent, so our deposit was paid. Kiteleys held this for 5 months before we completed (we lost interest on this amount). Then cert went missing. (maybe in post)
Now we are selling this property and we find Kiteleys missed a minor problem and we have to pay an indemnity to protect our buyers. Would not use again.

Sophie Wheeler did an excellent job

So very pleased with Sophie Wheeler. She did an excellent job sorting out a flood claim compensation for me. She kept me fully updated throughout the matter and the outcome was very favourable. I would certainly recommend Sophie.

A few months ago I used Kiteleys for the second time for some changes to a Life Policy. Ashleigh Bryant Fower was super helpful and easy to deal with. The first time I encountered Kiteleys was when I walked in late one Friday afternoon hoping (against hope as I wasn’t a client) for some advice on a conveyancing matter I was struggling with. Sarah Townsend was in the office and answered my question there and then. Her advice saved me a lot of time and money with the inept conveyancing firm my mother was using. It was without hesitation that I used Kiteleys again when the family needed help on a Life Policy. I heartily recommend this firm.

Really good experience with very pleasant people in drawing up my will in relation to free wills month. Not 5 stars as the draft missed an important part though that was then corrected

If you need to sign a declaration of solvency in the presence of a solicitor, apparently, this firm can't do it - well that was what I was told when I phoned. They also couldn't point me in the right direction.
