How LPL Compares

Value for money

This firm - 97%
National Average
Poor Competitive Excellent

Excellent does not necessarily mean ‘cheap’. It means that clients thought that the level of service received was Excellent for what they paid.

This score has been calculated using up to the last 300 reviews left by clients of LPL on ReviewSolicitors.

  • How much were you initially quoted or how much did you expect to pay?
  • Approximately how much did you end up spending for the legal services provided (ignoring disbursements and court fees)
  • Did you think this was underpriced, overpriced or about right?
  • Overall experience

We use data science to amalgamate the answers to these questions and create a ‘ReviewSolicitors score’ out of 100. The above chart representation score is a simple percentage representation of the averaged score across those who have reviewed this law firm.

Underpriced 0%
Overpriced 36%

LPL helped me buy my forever home and could not have been more helpful. It was not a normal situation but they got it completed for me. Would recommend.

Excellent Service When Selling My Mother's Flat

Really helpful, it was a difficult time moving my mother into a home but LPL were great and did the conveyancing really quickly and professionally. The portal page was helpful to get quick updates.

Exceptional Service

Keanan Harrison provided exceptional service throughout the entire process. He was professional, kind, and incredibly helpful. Despite the challenges posed by the seller’s side, Keanan kept me well-informed and handled everything with great expertise. His support made a significant difference, and I would highly recommend him as a conveyancing solicitor

No communication

I regret to say that my experience with this company was extremely unsatisfactory. I worked with Morgan Dalton as our Conveyancing Executive, and found the service to be subpar. The company appeared careless and unresponsive to requests, including my appeal for a different representative to handle our documentation and correspondence.

Morgan Dalton consistently failed to provide timely updates, often leaving us without information for weeks at a time. There was a lack of confirmation regarding receipt of documents or notification of any additional support required from external parties. Despite repeated requests in our emails for delivery confirmations, we received no responses.

Overall, the level of communication and service fell well below acceptable standards, leading to a frustrating and disappointing experience. I cannot recommend this company based on my interactions.

Terrible communication

Case Number 772000

The purchase was never completed, but I endured three months of a interesting unprofessiaonal experience. The caseworker consistently failed to respond to my requests. For instance, it took three weeks to get an answer on how much it would cost to leave the dishwasher in the house—three weeks after the estate agent confirmed that the response had been sent. I was unable to reach the caseworker for three weeks, and no, she was not on vacation (at least, that's what I was told). Escalating the issue to the caseworker's team leader only helped on the third attempt.

The caseworker NEVER informed me that the mortgage offer from the bank had not been received, despite my sending a copy of the mortgage offer to her. You will never receive any confirmation letters, such as "requested documents have been received," nor will you get any notifications about to-do items, like paying to start the search process. In the end, I was somewhat relieved that the purchase was canceled because it allowed me to move on to other solicitors!

Abysmal customer service

Our conveyancing case handler mixed up the prices of the properties we were selling and buying because she kept mixing up the pages in our forms (and refused to be guided to the correct pages until after many attempts), she misread a title register, she added unauthorised fees to our account (despite notes on our account) and so it went.

We tried getting a change of conveyancing case handler but were blocked from speaking to her manager by various staff when phoning in. The manager didn't bother even speaking to us after we emailed clientservices, instead our conveyancing case handler got in touch and instructed us that the issue was resolved. Then she went on to not pay attention again some more.

We got so fed up with her after she did work on buying a property ONE MONTH after we told her not to (the chain collapsed) that we felt there was no salvaging the situation and that we'd rather start again with a completely different firm. At that point someone FINALLY decided to provide the contact details for the manager.

Very unreliable. I'd steer clear

All was nice and quick until I was assigned a case handler. After this everything ground down to a halt. Their manager was absolutely no help either.
Can never get a hold of anyone on the phone, and they did not keep me updated in regards to my purchase. I've no clue how they managed to get the reviews they have, but I can only assume it's not from property conveyancing.
I would strongly advise against using them. My mortgage advisor who pointed me towards them also added them to their black list to never recommend a customer to again.

Great experience with Soh Sohail

I am writing to extend my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional service and support Soh Sohail provided during my recent property purchase. His expertise, dedication, and professionalism were evident throughout the entire process, and I genuinely appreciate his effort to ensure a smooth and successful transaction.

From the initial consultation to finalizing the purchase, Sohail's attention to detail gave me great confidence and peace of mind. His timely communication and willingness to address all my queries promptly made a significant difference, and I truly valued his guidance and advice at each step. Thank you once again!

Excellent Service from LPL Solicitors Mr Muhammad Anas

I recently used LPL Solicitors for my first-time home buyer, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. The team was professional, efficient, and communicative throughout the process, ensuring everything went smoothly. for their patience and expertise. They kept me well-informed at every stage and made what could have been a stressful process very straightforward

I highly recommend LPL Solicitors to anyone looking for reliable and knowledgeable legal support. Thank you for your outstanding service!

Could not recommend the team at LPL highly enough. The team were always at the end of the phone or email (always with an informative and prompt response).
We were not once left waiting for anything from our side of the purchase, and as soon as the next step or stage was ready to be started, LPL were ready to progress for us.
A special mention and thanks for Emily. We could not have asked for someone better to be acting on our behalf. Emily made everything seem easy and straight forward for us, and as we all know that is not always the case. Friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, approachable, and a great ambassador for the firm.
We will definitely use LPL again when our next purchase or sale arrives.
