Smooth and helpful sales process

I've worked with Lucy Hunting a few times now and have always found her to be super responsive, helpful and clear in her approach. I really appreciate the way she works; the process was really smooth and made as painless as possible. Thank you

Mark Robertson and Robert Small are an excellent team. They helped me through a litigation case explaining every step in an plain easily understandable way. Both Mark and Rob are extremely easy to talk to and both have an extensive knowledge of the law. Thanks to Mark and Rob we ultimately won our litigation case with a cost order placed on the defendant. I would highly recommend Downie & Gadban to anybody considering litigation.

Good communication from everyone at the company and always there to answer questions. Our sale became more complicated than we had hoped but both Tracey & Rebecca dealt with the issues that arose quickly and efficiently.

Refused to help with a small legal matter regarding the purchase of a property

A representative from Downie & Gadban Limited responded to this review

We are disappointed to have received your review but would like to take the opportunity to respond. We received your enquiry via our website and we responded to it quickly, within half an hour, explaining that unfortunately, due to existing client commitments, we were unable to help on this occasion and pointing you in the direction of the Law Society’s Find a Solicitor website to try and assist you in finding an alternative firm. We pride ourselves on the level of service that we offer our clients and we try to avoid taking on more work than we can comfortably deal with (taking into account the availability and workloads of individual members of our team) to avoid affecting the service that we provide to our existing clients. We are sorry that we were not able to assist on this occasion.

Tracey went out of her way to ensure that our sale went through smoothly. We had quite a complicated sale that took quite some time to complete, but in the end we got there! Thank you again Tracey, we'd highly recommend.

As a family business we have been using Downie Gadban for a number of years and appreciate their expertise and acumen. No matter what our need they never let us down. Recently Robert negotiated on a case for us and we were delighted by his ability to empathise and understand what we were trying to say and transform that into legalese. It was also a weight off our shoulders knowing that we were in the hands of highly capable professionals. We would not hesitate to recommend both Julian and Robert in their respected fields.

Thank you so much for your review. It is a pleasure acting for you and your family and we look forward to continuing working with you.

I was very impressed with the professionalism and customer service I received from Tracey Longdon. Everything went smoothly thanks to Tracey and not forgetting the very helpful Janice Payne. I would therefore absolutely recommend Downie & Gadban Limited.

Brilliant service: clear, cost-effective and highly efficient

My wife and I needed to make new wills. Simon Acworth responded swiftly to our initial approach. We met, discussed, took his advice and the wills were quickly completed ready for our signatures. A very, very effective service.

After a positive experience using Downie & Gadban to write my will, I chose them to do the conveyancing on my house sale and purchase. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Lucy Hunting was so efficient, lovely to deal with and very quick to respond if I needed anything, and Helen was very helpful when I went in to sign documents. Lucy took the trouble to explain everything clearly, and was very proactive in chasing things up for me. I knew I could have total confidence in Lucy's advice.

Tracey provides excellent 5 star service, if there were more stars available I would give more. Her turn around for enquiries, responding to emails/calls and attention to detail is far beyond exceptional. Without Tracey’s dedication during our recent sale we would not have exchanged in a last minute scenario as we did. I can thoroughly recommend Tracey with any house sale, I’m convinced she could manage the sale of a complex listed castle .

I engaged D&G to do the conveyancing for the purchase of my home. They were excellent with communications, prompt responses to questions and made the experience as easy and smooth as it can be. Would highly recommend the team, particularly Tracey and Janice who handled everything for me.

I would highly recommend Downie and Gadban. We recently hired them to manage the purchase of our first property. They were extremely responsive, helpful, and on the ball. We were between two solicitors in the and let's just say I'm very glad we went with D&G.
