Leading Property Lawyers

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.

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.

We tried these guys as they were cheaper than our usual people. Wish we hadn't, they were slow, the paperwork was often sent incorrectly and even their review link didn't work!

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.

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.

We had a fantastic experience with LPL, we were first time buyers and worked with Ethan Warner as our case handler throughout the process & I cannot fault him. He always updated me on what was going on in the process and was happy to have a call if I had any queries. We picked up our keys last week & are over the moon. I would recommend LPL & thank you Ethan for your help.

We went through auction to buy our home and my partner was dealing with all of the emails and forms that were needed. The solicitors were absolutely brilliant and managed to get to completion within 2-3 months! They had really good communication with us and the sellers solicitors and steered us in the right direction as it was our first time buying a house. Me and my girlfriend are very happy :)

The service was completed on the requested time and the response for our every query was quickly actioned.I would recommend LPL.

Fantastic work by Charleigh Mollins dealing with a complex buy/sale house chain. Always responsive, accurate, honest, timely, informative and helpful. Having interacted with various conveyors over the years, I can attest she's the best.

Excellent speedy service. Communication with conveyancer was easy, quick and always pleasant. Online portal makes engagement super easy to track developments. Will absolutely use again, my conveyancer was Sima Ludi who was professional, kind, approachable and turned things around super quickly. Thank you Sima!
