John Copland & Son

This firm should be investigated for the mismanagement, abuse and failure to provide accounts to the beneficiaries of a Trust Fund in twenty years that they have had the Trust. They placed the Trust house in the name Timothy and James Bancroft instead of annotating it was held in trust on behalf of the beneficiaries. They play favourites and appear to have either embezzled funds or not taken care with issuing of disbursement’s to beneficiaries who have claimed to have never received their money. They have engaged in discrimination and created havoc with the family, as they appear to have worked one beneficiary off against the other and we each didn’t realise. Everything has been a battle with John Copland & Sons, they are thoroughly unprofessional and quite possibly acting outside their remit and the law. How they have not been closed down and struck off is one of life’s mysteries.

This is the most dishonest and untrustworthy solicitor that I have had the pleasure to come across. There incompetence is unmeasurable, the invoice is off the scale in cost. Do not use them!

Used this company twice,once when selling my shop, Which took 2 years to complete due to their incompetence, constantly telephoned them and the Secretary Famous for her catchphrase (hello John Copland And Sonnnnnns) No one is available at the moment I’ll get someone to phone you back. (No one ever did phone back )On the second occasion. they was dealing with my dads will, he passed away in March 2018 one year later they were still not capable of achieving probate.Telephoned on a number of occasions to the famous saying of (hello John Copland And sonnnnnnns)Again no ones available at the moment will get someone to phone you back. Again (no one never did)I then decided to ask for my paperwork back and go to another solicitor,I went there to collect my paperwork. Once there the secretary refused to give me the paperwork until she realised she was being recorded on video,on my I phone, she then gave me my paperwork straightaway.They charged me £900 for nothing (or should I say they stole £900 off me)I genuinely believe that the secretary should be sweeping up in McDonald’s and Tim and his wife should be flipping the burgers absolute thieves should not Be allowed to solicitor on peoples behalf,I then went to Tassells Solicitors In Faversham. It was a different grade,1st class everything was done and finished within 12 weeks, polite, Updated you constantly, when you Telephoned them You was able to speak to them straight away completely different experience absolutely brilliant serviceI (don’t use John copland &sons) if they’re local to you it is not worth it use a different solicitor do not use them they are terrible beyond belief,Tassells solicitors Was happy to pursue the case against John Copeland And Sons for the return of my money I did not pursue it any further As I was so stressed out with the whole experience

Sam worked hard to support me with a difficult personal injury claim. Very satisfied with service and outcome. Thankyou
