Lily Benson was fantastic to work with as she acted as my conveyancer in the purchase of my property. She was always very quick at replying to emails, and her replies always clearly answered any queries. She was very efficient and professional with the whole purchase, and I would definitely recommend her to any one who is looking to buy or sell property.

I was supported by Ella and her team for a personal matter Everything went smoothly, they were very supportive and the matter was closed quickly and efficiently. However some 5 months later they have contacted me with a very curt and presumptuous email asking for more money because they forgot to add it to the original invoice. I paid it, but have informed them that I'd update my review for the company. Another instance of a company/customer experience being let down by some actions/individuals🤷‍♂️

Good afternoon Mike. Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback; we always aim to deliver the very best experience across all stages and interactions of a matter so we're saddened to read that we weren't able to match your expectations on this occasion. We can see that you have been speaking with a member of the team about this, so will discuss and look into this with them. Mark - Dutton Gregory

Commercial Property

I instructed Dutton Gregory on my first commercial property purchase. Whilst the transaction itself completed successfully, I was disappointed with the level of service and advice I received. During my own review of the completion statement, I identified several significant errors, including the omission of rent deposits for two commercial units, rent paid in advance not being accounted for, and an incorrect Stamp Duty Land Tax calculation. Had I not queried these figures myself, I would have overpaid by over £13,000. Whilst mistakes can happen, I would not have expected errors of this nature or magnitude on a completion statement prepared by a solicitor. I was also concerned that a charge document submitted to Companies House contained my signature and my witness's residential address, which became publicly available. I later discovered that this information could have been redacted before submission. My previous experience with a similar Companies House filing was that such information had been redacted as a matter of course, so I had no reason to believe this document would be treated differently. My concern is not that they failed to follow an instruction—I wasn't aware there was a decision to make. Rather, I would have expected a solicitor, particularly knowing this was my first commercial property transaction, to advise me that the document would be published in full and that redaction was an available option. Following a complaint, the firm maintained that advising on redaction was not part of its standard process unless specifically requested. Whilst I respect that this is their position, I remain disappointed by the outcome and feel that a little more proactive guidance, together with greater attention to detail throughout the transaction, would have avoided these issues entirely. For those reasons, I would be hesitant to use the firm again.
