Purchase of flat

Bradley was an engaged, pragmatic, and highly experienced lead throughout the flat purchase process, and his professionalism was greatly appreciated. He provided clear direction and instilled confidence at key stages of the transaction. However, there were gaps in the support provided by the wider team. At times, communication lacked sufficient clarity or was wrong, and more proactive guidance and sharing of critical information would have been beneficial. Greater attention to detail and coordination across the team would help avoid some of the issues encountered. In particular, the final completion stage presented unforeseen challenges, resulting in an unexpected delay of 4–5 hours. This had a knock-on impact, resulting in the cancellation of the snagging survey and furniture delivery, causing understandable frustration (and unnecessary costs) for all parties involved. Overall, while the leadership and expertise at the senior level were strong, there is an opportunity for the supporting team to provide more consistent, detail-oriented, and proactive support to enhance the overall client experience.

Thank you for your constructive feedback. We are pleased that Bradley’s leadership and expertise provided you with confidence during your purchase. However, we appreciate your feedback on the communication gaps and the significant delay on completion day. Your comments regarding team coordination and attention to detail have been noted and will be used to improve our service consistency.

I would highly recommend Bradley, Elif and the team. Having used them previously I used them again on my recent sale and purchase and they did a great job, particularly given the challenges presented by the lawyers on the other side. Bradley was helpful in answering my questions and helped ensure the transactions were completed on time.

This message comes so very late from us the very opposite of how Curwens were with us, seamless and extremely professional. Really wanted to praise how great Curwens really are! Big massive thanks to Christina, Bradley and Elif for their tireless efforts to ensure we completed by close of play 31/03/2025, not incurring further stamp duty expense. We did not think would happen purely due to holdups and some issues on our side, but it happened and we cannot thank them enough. It was no doubt an exceptionally busy time for them and they worked hard to get all completed. Any questions they had for us they would let us know, and advise accordingly on what we needed to do. They were always contactable, prompt with coming back to us with callbacks/paperwork required. In the past, we have always had some issues with Solicitors and long delays. Curwens really were fantastic. Looking forward to working with you again.

Resolution

I found myself dealing with a completely unfounded claim for wrongful dismissal and other fabricated allegations from an employee who had resigned and openly acknowledged doing so, yet still pursued a case with the help of his lawyers. A trusted friend recommended I speak to Omar Qassim, and I’m very glad I did. Omar and the team at Curwen’s helped me navigate an extremely stressful and challenging situation with clarity, reassurance, and professionalism.

Patient, Professional and Supportive Throughout

A huge thank you to Suzan and Bradley at Curwens for guiding us through the sale of our property. While we were fortunate to secure an offer we were happy with, the journey from accepted offer to completion became much longer and more complex than anyone anticipated. Along the way there were countless enquiries, requests, requirements and unexpected hurdles to navigate. Throughout it all, Suzan and Bradley were professional, responsive and incredibly patient. Their communication was clear and timely, and they always took the time to explain what was needed, answer questions and keep matters moving wherever possible. Property transactions can be stressful at the best of times, but having experienced professionals in your corner makes all the difference. We always felt supported and reassured, even during the more challenging periods of the process. Thank you both for helping us get over the line. After a long and sometimes testing journey, we were delighted to complete and greatly appreciated your hard work, persistence and support throughout. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Curwens to anyone looking for trusted conveyancing solicitors.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and for your kind words. While securing a great offer is always an exciting start, property sales can often throw unexpected hurdles and complex enquiries your way. We are so pleased to hear that Suzan and Bradley were able to provide the steady guidance, expertise, and support needed to successfully navigate those challenges and get you across the finish line to completion. We will be sure to pass your huge thank you along to both of them. Thank you for choosing Curwens to handle your property sale, and we wish you all the very best in your next chapter.

I have been to Curwens for both my will and a Declaration of Trust document. On both occasions, I found the solicitors to be extremely knowledgeable and helpful. No question was too 'daft' and responses to phone calls and to emails, were prompt and always answered my queries. Not only was everything completed to a high standard; I was also able to work on a fixed fee basis which meant that, despite my asking thousands of questions and fretting over things, the costs didn't spiral and remained affordable. Everything sorted now and I am 100% delighted with the services from Curwens. Alexandra is a particular superstar!
