The service from Carey Hughes was excellent from start to finish.
Shauni and Lauren were brilliant every step of the way - especially with keeping me up-to-date on the progression of selling my property.
What could have been a stressful experience was very straightforward.
I would highly recommend.

We used Carey Hughes for both the sake of our flat and the purchase of our new house. Paula Davies was great - so knowledgable and professional but also it really felt like she cared (which means a lot when you’re going through such an important life event). Would absolutely recommend.

It seems that no matter who I email, my issues have been passed on to someone else. I expect better from a company such as Carey Hughes. Please be more direct with your customers and make it a priority to get things sorted quickly. It shouldn't take days or even weeks of emails and calls back and forth to sort something which could have taken 5 minutes to resolve.

Avoid this firm if you value your time, sanity, and money.
This wasn’t my first experience with solicitors, but easily the worst. My offer was accepted on April 11, with an entry date set for May 28 — more than enough time, or so I thought.
From day one, I was passed between six different people at Carey Hughes. I completed ID and AML checks within the first week, my mortgage was approved, and I submitted all required documents without delay.
Then, just a few days before completion, they started questioning the origin of my income beyond the 6 months they initially requested. I gave them all statements, full documentation, and complete transparency, including income from Bitcoin gains, all sold within regulated UK accounts with clear audit trails.
On the day of entry, they hit me with a single sentence over email:
“As a firm we generally don’t accept cryptocurrency being used towards your deposit.”
That was it.
Despite providing GBP in UK-regulated accounts, not crypto. Despite showing proof of income, tax declarations, and all investment records. Despite the fact that everything was clear, clean, and declared. Despite having an appointment confirmed with Ceitidh, who simply didn’t show up — I was met by a secretary telling me she was in another meeting.
Even after a month and a half of delays and email exchanges, they dismissed my case again with another one-liner:
“We are unable to proceed with your transaction.”
No explanation. No accountability. No mention of policy up front. Just careless rejection and silence. Completely unprofessional and unprepared to deal with modern financial reality.
If you want a smooth, transparent, and respectful legal service, go anywhere else.
