Just completed a property purchase with LPL that has gone absolutely fantastically. Our solicitor, Charleigh, was with us throughout the entire process and was brilliant. We were promptly kept up to date and any queries we had were handled both professionally and quickly.

AWFUL EXPERIENCE

I don’t have anything good to say about them unfortunately. They are slow to respond, they drag your case for weeks till you’re frustrated. They can make you lose the house you planned to buy. I wish we didn’t have to use them. They change your case handler every other month till you exhaust your energy. Please, please, get a Solicitor that truly cares about you and their business not them.

Incompetency at its peak

My time has never been wasted like LPL has in my entire life. We’ve spent 4months and 3weeks on the purchase of a house and it doesn’t seem like we’re close to completion. I’ve been chasing them like they are offering me a free service. Sadly, I didn’t read their reviews before choosing them. My purchase was given to a newbie unsupervised to handle and she has messed up everything. The seller has threatened to pull out twice, twice we’ve extended the mortgage offer from the lender and thrice has she promised we were close to completion and funnily, the dates are a month apart(4th of June, July and August). We’ve even ordered loads of household items based on the promises we got from LPL. Myself and my spouse have now lost the excitement that comes with purchasing a new home and at this point we are waiting for the last mortgage offer we got to expire and probably arrange for our deposit to be refunded. Nobody needs to go through what I’m currently going through.

A representative from Leading Property Lawyers Limited responded to this review

Thank you for providing further information in order that we can address your concerns. As you know, the matter is not straightforward and we are currently awaiting a response from your lender. We understand that it could have been frustrating whilst there was some back and forth with your lender however, you are aware that these delays are not attributable to any action or inaction from LPL.

Inconsistent and inaccurate

I was disappointed with my experience using LPL for my property purchase. The main issues were communication and accuracy. Throughout the transaction, I found communication to be poor. I made several calls requesting a callback, but these were often not returned. This was particularly difficult as I was working overseas in a significantly different time zone and relied heavily on prompt responses. The regular excuse was they could not phone an international phone number, despite me only providing a UK number. More concerning was an error in the purchase price recorded on my file. I had provided the correct purchase price from the outset in the initial paperwork and also discussed the figures by phone before instruction because the purchase included a discount. Despite this, the incorrect price remained on their system and was only identified at completion, which meant I had to arrange additional funds at very short notice. During the complaints process, the firm maintained that I had originally provided the wrong figure, but they were unable to provide evidence to support that assertion when asked. I found this disappointing given that I held documentation showing the correct price had been supplied from the beginning. They acknowledged some shortcomings and offered a goodwill payment. However, I did not feel this fully reflected the stress and inconvenience caused. My experience was that the transaction was completed, but the service fell short in terms of communication, attention to detail, and accountability when errors were raised. LPL's latest tactic has been to come up with new reasons for their errors, or revert to old excuses which they can't provide evidence to support.

Avoid at all costs

Utterly unsatisfactory experience with this company. They made buying and selling a nightmare. Avoid at all costs. From repeated administrative errors, rude and dismissive solicitors, poor communication and glacially slow service, this made our moving process incredibly stressful, frustrating, difficult and upsetting. I do not usually leave negative reviews but I wouldn’t want anyone to go through the same ordeal as us. The company have also failed to respond to my complaint.

I was initially warned by my the sellers estate agent not to use them but I had already started the process with LPL so decided to continue. Overall, I don't have anything positive to say in the experience. I never once actually got to speak to a solicitor. I called well in excess of 10 times and no once did I get to speak to a solicitor. Nor did I ever receive a call back from the multiple times I had called so eventually gave up. Queried multiple times if there was any missing documentation/anything had fell through the net from my side, only to be told when I was asking around a completion date that there actually was outstanding paperwork from sometime ago. Happy to hold my hands up and say I missed on my end, but to have been told multiple times by the professional that nothing was missing at the final hurdle was frustrating to say the least. When talking over email the responses were slow and miserable. It was very weird to feel like such a burden when asking relatively simple questions. Considering they weren't the cheapest option presented to me, I really can't see where that extra money has gone. Process was slow. Service was terrible. The app that they use for managing their process even has a buggy UI

We are sorry to read your poor review and will consider your feedback in the context of the transaction, in order that we can improve our service to others.

I would like to give my sincere thanks and appreciation to Zaina Hasan for her outstanding support throughout my property purchase. Zaina was extremely professional, helpful and approachable from start to finish. She kept me updated throughout the process, responded to my questions promptly, and always took the time to explain things clearly whenever I needed clarification. Her communication was excellent, and she made what could have been a stressful process feel much easier and more manageable. Zaina is a credit to the team, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional and supportive conveyancing executive. Thank you, Zaina, for all your hard work and support in helping me complete my property purchase successfully.( LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT)

Very disappointing service

Very disappointing service. In my experience, the firm was quick to request payment upfront, but after three weeks, no meaningful work had been carried out on my matter. Communication was extremely slow, and I received no clear guidance about the next steps. I repeatedly asked for information and legal advice, but my questions were not properly answered. The customer service team were also unhelpful. Each time I contacted them, I was told that my concerns had been raised and that someone would contact me. Unfortunately, nobody did. I do not feel that my case was handled professionally or efficiently. Based on my experience, I would advise others to instruct a firm that is able to communicate clearly, provide proper advice and actually progress the work.

A representative from Leading Property Lawyers Limited responded to this review

We are sorry that you have been unhappy at this very early stage of the transaction. Money on account was received for searches from you, just 3 working days ago and we are in the process of mapping the plan with the search provider to ensure that the correct area is searched. We cannot agree that there has been any delay attributable to LPL.

We started our house buying process in April and after the initial introduction process with LPL, we were assigned with Beatrice, one of the conveyancing executives. She has been amazing throughout. Excellent communication with no need to chase for anything - unlike our buyers solicitor. We had a detailed introductory phone call with most communication after being done over email, which we preferred. We always received a response the same day and mostly within a few hours. Even better, Beatrice’s team would actively work on our file if she was away and maintain good comms (thanks Ethan). The conveyancing went smoothly, with the team applying for searches without delay once instructed and uploading results to our online portal once they were returned. Genuinely impressed by LPL and grateful to Beatrice in particular. Would definitely recommend.
