Property purchase Marylebone

Right from my very first phone conversation with Maneli, I was very impressed with her expertise and professionalism. She handled my property purchase with upmost diligence, always planning one step ahead to ensure a smooth process. Additionally, Maneli was very patient and supportive; she provided regular updates and resolved queries promptly. I doubt that I would have completed the purchase to such tight timescales without her. I highly recommend PCB Lawyers and Maneli in particular for any property related matters.

Very professional and service minded. Thanks very much to Maneli

As overseas buyers of a property in the UK, we initially encountered problems with another firm who were clearly less knowledgeable on how to advance a purchase with foreign buyers, especially since there was a very short time constraint to finish the whole process in two months. A lawyer friend in our country suggested to transfer the file to PCB and we were assigned to Maneli. We were very satisfied both with her professional knowledge, her availability, her kindness and the fact that, happily, we managed to complete the acquisition in two months. Thanks very much Maneli and the PCB team.

The solicitor who I always recommend to clients

As intermediaries between the developer and client, recommending a responsible solicitor is the key. Henry's professionalism and attention to detail make a significant difference for our clients. He always answers the client patiently to ensure that every aspect is handled meticulously. It’s evident that his expertise truly sets him apart in the field.

Terrible Experience

From the start, the attitude was lackadaisical. Had provided the bank’s contacts to liaise on the transaction but despite many attempts over several WEEKS from the bank to contact him, they were unsuccessful until the bank had to revert back to me to get in touch the lawyer directly to ask him to respond to the bank’s lawyers, this was the pattern throughout. We even had to request help from the agent who sold us the property and she had an adverse reaction from the lawyer after she approached his supervisors. Prickly and unhelpful. In the end, it was touch and go if all the documentation and payment details could be finalised by the deal completion date. Even until the day before the completion date, the amount to be paid had to be adjusted. Never before in my many property deals around the world, that such matters had been taken so close to the line. Usually documentation and payment details are settled weeks before and it is a leisurely cruise to complete the deal. Instead, we end up having to work for the law firm, jumping every time to respond instantly so that the deal could be kept on track. Was an extremely stressful time for us.

I have worked with Shaun for a number of years and have assisted us through several off plan sites from exchange to completion. Shaun and his team Teona & Georgia have provided exceptional services to our clients. They are professional and trustworthy and guide our clients through the conveyancing process and ensure a smooth process. They are very responsive, transparent and keep us updated on progress to ensure a smooth transaction. We couldnt recommended PCB enough.

Horrible services. Managed by not so experienced lawyers that don’t know how to negotiate and mediate for their clients. Never do verification checks that make clients lose their deposit.

We've just completed our property purchase with PCB and they were fantastic - all communication were clear and concise, and they were there to offer guidance every step of the way. I'd 100% recommend their services. A big thank you to Winston, Yanice and Henry for all your help!

DO NOT WORK at all COSTS

Review of Service – Natasha Chow (Senior Paralegal) My experience with this matter was disappointing and unnecessarily prolonged. Despite providing the requested documentation and explanations on multiple occasions, I repeatedly received requests for the same information. This created the impression that previous correspondence and attachments had not been properly reviewed before further emails were sent. The process became frustrating due to the apparent lack of continuity and attention to the materials already supplied. From a client’s perspective, this results in avoidable delays and additional administrative burden. While I appreciate that solicitors must comply with strict regulatory and anti–money laundering obligations, these requirements should ideally be managed alongside a careful review of the documentation that clients have already provided. Repeatedly requesting information that has already been shared falls short of the professional and efficient service one would expect. I hope that future clients will benefit from a more streamlined approach to document review and communication to avoid similar frustrations.

Unhelpful and not so useful lawyers

Horrible services. Managed by not so experienced lawyers that don’t know how to negotiate and mediate for their clients. Never do verification checks that lead to clients making big financial losses. Avoid and boycott.

Review for PCB Law Firm

My experience with PCB Law Firm was one of the most painful and damaging ordeals I’ve ever been through. I approached the firm for help after a bailiff secretly delivered a CRAR Act letter to my closed premises during the COVID-19 lockdown — a letter with no sender address or visible date. This letter was based on one vague email from a third party falsely claiming I hadn’t paid rent for 360 days. The bailiff took no steps to verify that person's legal status or whether CRAR was even legally applicable. Instead of representing my side, PCB Law simply adopted the bailiff’s narrative. They ignored all the evidence and information I gave them, refused to take my timeline or side of the story, and treated me as if I had no voice in my own case. They accepted the bailiff’s claim that the letter had been lawfully delivered, even though it was secretly placed inside a locked property during lockdown — a fact I only discovered via CCTV. When I tried to explain the legal mistakes and that I never owed the money claimed, I was dismissed. I trusted my lawyer, only to later realize that he had simply copied and accepted the bailiff’s false witness statement. When I pointed this out, PCB Law dropped my case — and brought in someone they claimed was an “independent reviewer,” who then upheld their version of events without properly considering my evidence. That "independent" reviewer also ignored the fact that my lawyer had blamed me, misrepresented my words, and even implied that I didn’t understand English, which was deeply humiliating. This has now become a five-year nightmare. My business, my mental health, and my financial stability have been devastated. The UK legal system — including courts, ombudsmen, and judicial review — has treated me like I don’t exist. All of this began with a baseless email and a bailiff's illegal action, and was then supported by a law firm that chose to silence and blame the client rather than investigate the truth. PCB Law’s treatment of me was negligent, damaging, and professionally irresponsible. I am taking my case to the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, because in the UK I was silenced and abandoned. To anyone considering PCB Law Firm: Please understand how unprofessional and dangerous it is to be represented by people who take thousands of pounds and then treat you like you're the problem, just to protect themselves. I was swallowed, digested, and spit out — all because I trusted the wrong firm.

Provided constant updates and made the collecting of information from me relatively easy. I would have no hesitation recommending PCB Lawyers or employing their services again. Both Teona Ritchie and Georgia Hanna were great to work with - both in constant communication with updates and both accessible when I needed to contact them.
