How LPL Compares

Value for money

This firm - 98%
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.

As part of our review questionnaire we ask reviewer questions about the value for money they felt they received by using LPL. These questions include:

  • Value for money (a rating of 1-5)
  • 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 23%
About Right 76%

Phone call?

Currently using LPL and I have more faith in the estate agents managing the process to communicate in a timely fashion. Over 3 months into the process from first instructing LPL and I still haven't ever had a phone call with our solicitor despite multiple requests. House selling and purchasing is a complex process (especially for folk that do it infrequently) and therefore only corresponding through email is not an effective approach in my opinion.

Outstanding experience with Clare Miller

I had the pleasure of working with Clare Miller and I am truly impressed. Clare's expertise, professionalism, and genuine care for her clients set her apart. She made complex legal matters easy to understand and guided me with patience every step of the way. If you're seeking exceptional legal assistance, look no further than Clare Miller. Highly recommended.

AMAZING EFFICIENT SOLICITORS WHO CAN GET THE JOB DONE

5 star service!

Wow, amazing solicitors.
VERONICA MISKELL we want to thank you for saving our mortgage offer.

We had been in the process of remortgaging for 5 MONTHS with BENNET AND OAKLEY solicitors and they delayed matter significantly! They tried charging us thousands of pounds for things we didn't need, and threatened additional fees when I spoke to my own lender! Due to their total disregard and lack of care our mortgage offer was due to expire soon after. Holding on to the only hope we had (as mortgage rates had increased so much, so we needed to secure the rate we received months earlier!)
we decided to try our luck with LPL and IT PAID OFF!

LPL / Veronica Miskell totally saved us! Kept us informed the whole way, was so quick and efficient in dealing with the situation. They were instructed on 24th July and completed just 4 weeks later! Well in time to avoid us stressing about our mortgage offer ending the following month! I can't praise them enough, and particularly Veronica!

We look forward to using you in the future, you have gained a loyal customer!

Outstanding Service from Laila at LPL!

I would highly recommend LPL both of value for money and exceptional customer service. The portal was great as it let you see progress in real time which was helpful. Laila, my conveyancer, was very professional, friendly and efficient. She handled the sale of my mother's property in record time! Thank you for everything Laila!

She was very detailed and ensured i knew what i was getting into.
Always ready to explain either via email or phone call.

The service was half decent at best

The service was half decent at best. We were constantly having to chase our solicitor for information. Had no opening welcome call until I had emailed. Our solicitor gave us no notice that they would be on leave and that we would be dealing with a cover, this happened multiple times. Didn't communicate with cover to release our contracts to sign as they were received a few weeks before completion and after having to prompt LPL to check.

One particular cover supervisor, Sophie Darlington, was rude on the day of exchange and whilst dealing with us. Was told to not phone and leave an email, after I had already emailed 4 hours before. The chain almost collapsed due to the non-urgency on exchange.

I guess the only positive was that our original solicitor would be thorough once I could get a hold of them, and that the portal was okay to keep track of matters.

Would not recommend as a first-time buyer as things can be very confusing and no clarity was given unless pushed.

honestly one of they best law firms I have used to buy a property, the convenience team “Sneha” who was very helpful throughout the process and didn’t take long to complete. Would definitely recommend their services if you need a quick and stress free buying process. Thx Muntazer

Used LPL for a property purchase. They always got back to me straight away and were very efficient in answering my queries, chasing the other side, and explaining the process to me. I would highly recommend and I will use them again in the future. Their prices are reasonable compared to others too. I dealt with Luke Warrior who was great. Thank you
