Great service, highly recommended

I’d highly recommend Longmores Solicitors & in particular, Kirsty Adamson. They provided ongoing support and advise in helping the recovery of an outstanding loan, and explained things in clear concise manner. Again, I would thoroughly recommend them to others and be sure to use them again in the future.

A simple deal as we were not buying, simply selling. Uzma was very thorough and approachable Only slight reservation is that because there was little outside pressure (no chain etc) we had to nudge things on a bit

Sale and purchase of property.

We found Uzma and her team friendly and efficient in all aspects of the sale and purchase of our properties. Numerous problems occured with our vendor's solicitor and were dealt with efficiently & calmly by Uzma. If unavailable at anytime, calls were always returned promptly - a pleasure to deal with.

No stars - terribly slow and uncommunicative. A simple lease extension took nearly 11 months to finalise! The agent was difficult to get hold of, sent the wrong documents and even failed to send me a copy of the final lease. In order to finalise the sale of my house I had to involve my solicitor. I don't like giving negative feedback but it I think it is important as the whole process was expensive and frustrating. Avoid!

A representative from Longmores Solicitors LLP responded to this review

We are sorry to hear you are frustrated by the time it took for you to obtain a lease extension. Our client is the freehold company who granted your lease and we can only comment on how we handled our part within the matter from their perspective. All of our communication was within the necessary timescales and through the correct channels from when the original documents were sent to us when you were overseas. This was not a straightforward lease extension as a Deed of Substituted Security was also required from your lender. At present, registration of new leases with the Land Registry takes more than 12 months. Your lease was registered in less than three months.

Longmores Service was very thorough and professional. Communications were frequent and we did not have any trouble making contact at any time during the process. As first time buyers it would have been useful to have received some sort of welcome pack explaining the whole process including what was required at each stage. At times it felt like we were asked to provide documentation etc. with no prior warning which caused stress as we were eager not to hold the process up. We also felt that our views weren't always asked for and instead assumptions were made as to what we may or may not want in relation to the conveyancing process. It would also have been useful to have regular updates during the process, without having to call and chase ourselves. Even if this was weekly it would have been very much appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and sharing some useful feedback. We understand that buying a house can be stressful, particularly for first time buyers, so we like your idea of a welcome pack which would hopefully help other buyers to know which documents and decisions will be addressed throughout the transaction. If there is anything else you want to discuss with us about your experience at Longmores please feel free to get back in touch. We wish you happy times in your new home.

House Purchase

I used Longmores when purchasing my home. It went smoothly and within my timeline, meaning I was able to complete on the day that I wanted to. Using their app was convenient too, as I could easily see a log of what had been done and on what dates, which was very reassuring. Being able to pop into the office to look through documentation was great, as I was able to ask questions then and there, rather than doing everything remotely.

Making a difficult situation far easier to deal with.

I engaged the services of Longmores Solicitors and immediately felt at ease thanks to Lauren. She took the time to listen carefully to both myself and my brother, who required legal assistance with a family matter.

Exceptional Service.

I found myself having to agree a settlement agreement with my employer after being made redundant. I looked around for a solicitor who could support us and Miranda was empathetic, supportive and tenacious.. It’s rare to find a solicitor who actually cares about you and your situation, whilst retaining expert knowledge to help me come to mutually acceptable agreement. MIranda is a credit to Longmores and her professionalism was refreshing. This was at a time of extraordinary stress we had our very own Florence Nightingale. If you need and support from a legal professional then I can throughly recommend Longmores & Miranda. I hope this post and 5 star rating allows you to pick up the phone & you will be assured of the same exemplary customer service afforded to myself & my family. Thanks a million for going above & beyond.

House sale & purchase

My wife and I used Uzma Saleem at Longmores solicitors for our conveyancing when moving house. Uzma was professional and very thorough in her dealings throughout the process. She looked after our interests and ensured we obtained all the necessary documentation for the transaction to proceed on time.
