Happy adviser

I'm a broker in the London and Southwest area and I've just started submitting cases to Equilaw and I have to say they were first class from beginning to end and we will be using them going forward.

From the outset, communication was excellent, with constant updates and as a middle man, there were no unnecessary prompts from myself to the client needed.

A super happy client who received funds in great time and a happy broker here.

Many thanks Equilaw.

The best conveyancer!

I have worked with Equilaw for many, many years. Throughout the toughest of times! They have always remained professional, efficent and a joy to work with. I have great relationships with a few of the case managers and the team managers when some things don't go to plan. I always rave about Equilaw to my colleagues and as a result they have great relationships with Equilaw too. Keep up the good work team 7!

Excellent solicitor firm

I have been working within the lifetime mortgage and residential mortgage industry for over 20 years. I decided to refer a client of mine to equilaw rather than my usual local firm. They were brilliant! The Business Development team helped me with a quote, and explained that my clients case was complex. The manager assigned to my client was very professional, friendly and kept in regular contact. I will certainly recommend Equilaw again and look forward to working with them again soon.

Outstanding service

Equilaw were appointed as the solicitor for my parents releasing equity. It was a breath of fresh air to work with a firm that fully understood the pressures behind my parents situation. They remained professional and sympathetic throughout, ensuring my parents fully understood their mortgage. I would highly recommend Equilaw.

Equilaw

Equilaw are very accessible, they will respond to emails promptly, they will answer calls, you can book call-backs and they also have a portal where you can see the progress of the case. I find Equilaw very easy to deal with, they have a big team with a lot of experience. I would definitely recommend them as my number one choice equity release solicitor. Some of the above you may take for granted but you will be surprised how many firms don't even do the above. For that I would say Equilaw are a cut above the rest.

Bad beyond belief

My 80 years old Mother wanted to release equity through the "help" of Equilaw it took over a year before she decided not to go ahead, they have made her ill through stress and worry, they lose documents and ask for them again, then they find them, then they want documentation because they had forgotten to ask the first time, then they ask for more documentation and lose more documents that are sent to them.
They do not like negative feedback, although truthful.
And refuse to answer if you question their ability.

Total lack of communication. £900 wasted!

We were supposed to be contacted by phone to confirm their input, did not happen. Could not get in touch by phone - had to make an appointment for 5-7 days ahead. Had to phone to ask for pack Which arrived by post 11 days later!! My contact Robert Davies-Bolton seemed totally out of his depth on the phone. Did not have a grasp of what he was supposed to be doing or what I was supposed to be doing. I spoke to his Team Manager Danielle after various emails and phone calls from me which seemed to have no effect whatsoever. She took over the case as I was so desperate for the case to proceed. She was a great deal better and we got through it. We had a phone call to confirm completion and the money would be with us either that same day or the next. Two days later still no money. I telephoned and insisted on speaking to Damielle. She had no explanation but apologised again and the money was with us within an hour. I would not recommend this company under any circumstances despite the fact that they refunded a derisory £90 for the weeks of hassle and anxiety we had endured.
