Over 10k sale land sale bill

I wrote a review on here early September around this company over charging me for a simple land transaction. Ian responded swiftly to the review public stating they will look into it. I have heard nothing since. I am extremely disappointed that they wont even look into a bill which raised from an estimated 3k to 10k. I have no option now but to go to legal ombudsman.

Average experience

It was very long and complicated case. Our first solicitor Geena Parsons has left the firm without warning , with very poor communication and just forwarded our case to another solicitor without consulting with us. We didn't have any choice as to accept this change, but it involved more time, more stress and much more money. We had to agree to consult a barrister as our solicitor was unable to deal with the case on his own and this was a very expensive process. But this consultation has resolved our issue almost immediately and we just regret that it was not done sooner. Nobody informed us that it can be done rather that costly exchange of letters with solicitors. A very stressful experience overall. But the matter was resolved positively in the end. Thank you, Richard.

Thank you for your comments. We are pleased that Richard provided a good service and that you are satisfied with the outcome. We are, however, sorry to hear that you found the earlier support less helpful. While we take pride in the many positive reviews we receive, we also recognise that not every matter progresses as smoothly as we would wish. Your comments are appreciated and will help us to reflect and improve.

I was very happy with the help from George. Although ultimately we didn't win our dispute, George helped us get a considerable reduction in their inflated charges.

I have been using Boys & Maughan for Private Client matters for around 20 years, but this was my first Litigation. George Orton's advice was superb from the outset. He clearly laid out all the pros and cons for me to be able to make a balanced judgement as to my best course of action, both in time and financially.

We used Laura Foster and her secretary Gemma when we moved house in December. They were on top of everything and managed to push completion through quickly enabling us to move before Christmas. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Fast and helpful customer service

From past experience with conveyancing dealings, it was not favourable. However, our dealings with Boys and Maughan solicitors have been excellent. Completely satisfied with all dealings and all staff.

Property Sale/Purchase

From the sale of my house and the purchase of new property (including the failed previous attempt to purchase), my solicitor, Graham Tong, and his team have provided professional guidance, answered any queries that I may have had and steered me throughout what has been an interesting journey. I felt confident of the service that I was given by all concerned.

We cannot thank our Boys and Maughan Canterbury office enough for the outstanding service we received, and in particular, Gemma has been absolutely amazing. Our house sale was completed in just 9 weeks — or effectively 7 working weeks due to Christmas, which is truly incredible and far beyond what we expected. Although Graham was our named solicitor, Gemma handled almost everything from start to finish, and she did so with incredible efficiency, professionalism, and care. Her communication was excellent, always prompt, clear, fast and reassuring and she made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. Gemma went above and beyond at every stage, chasing progress, keeping us informed, and ensuring nothing was delayed. Her dedication and attention to detail made all the difference, and we genuinely believe the speed and success of our sale are largely thanks to her hard work. We are so grateful for everything Gemma (and Graham) did for us and would highly recommend this firm to anyone looking for a reliable, efficient, and outstanding conveyancing service. Thank you so much!
