Excellent service

"Responsive to emails and phone calls, kept up to date throughout the process and they dealt with obstacles that could have proven detrimental to the purchase. From my conversations over the phone with Georgia and Caroline, they were professional, helpful and most of all genuine good people."

Excellent Service and Support I have used this solicitor twice, and both experiences were excellent. From start to finish, I received clear information, helpful feedback, and strong support throughout the process. • Kept me informed at each stage. • Followed up on updates on my behalf. • Made the completion process straightforward and stress-free. Samantha Marandi was a pleasure to work with.

Great service

My solicitor went above and beyond on completion day to get everything completed despite some issues, this was really appreciated . I found the app and all online communication a little impersonal and found I was needing to send lots of e mails to clarify things . Sometimes a face to face appointment is needed .However I would recommend and use again if I needed a solicitor .

We recently used Dawn and Abigail as our solicitors during our house purchase, and we couldn’t be happier with the service we received. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout what can be a stressful process. Both Dawn and Abigail kept us informed every step of the way, responded promptly to any questions, and made everything as smooth and straightforward as possible. Their communication was excellent, and we always felt reassured that our purchase was in safe hands. We are so grateful for all of their hard work and dedication in helping us complete our move. We would highly recommend Dawn and Abigail to anyone looking for reliable, friendly, and knowledgeable solicitors. Thank you both for making our dream of owning our new home a reality!

Professional and easy to understand

I needed a Consent Order done for my divorce and I was fully explained what the process involved. It was easy to understand, and if any further work was required it was a straightforward process and there was no hidden/unexpected costs at the end. I would use again for any other legal matters in the future.

I used MBH for both the sale of my property and my onward purchase, and unfortunately the experience was extremely disappointing. My purchase should have been relatively straightforward. The property was unoccupied, the sellers were using a fast-track service, and my buyer was a cash buyer who did not require a survey. Despite this, after three months the transaction had still not progressed properly. During that time, searches and enquiries had apparently not even been sent. Communication throughout was appalling. We were repeatedly given mixed and contradictory information. At one point, the fast-track service was informed everything had been completed, yet when I personally asked for an update, I was told enquiries would be sent “next week.” It became completely unclear what the team had actually been doing for months. As a result of the delays and lack of progress, I lost my buyer and my purchase at contract stage. What made matters worse was the way this was communicated. I received an email at the end of the day simply stating that they understood the buyer was no longer interested and asking whether I wished to settle the bill or remarket the property. There was no phone call, no explanation, and no attempt to discuss what had happened. The following day I attempted to call twice without success, only to then receive another email from Heather, my solicitor, requesting documents for enquiries despite the sale apparently already having fallen through. I had to email directly whether my sale had actually collapsed or not. After chasing for a response, Heather eventually called me back and admitted she did not know the email had been sent or that the sale had fallen through or the reason. This was particularly concerning given that both myself and my buyer were using the same firm. In the end, it was only after my estate agent contacted them that we discovered the buyer was now relocating. Overall, the lack of communication, organisation, and awareness is unacceptable. I would not recommend this firm based on my experience.

Thank you for your feedback. However, we do not offer a fast track service so are unable to comment on this. With regards to delays, this is not accepted. As you are aware the buyer pulled out as he was no longer willing to purchase in the Wigan area. We understood that the estate agent had contacted you to discuss this directly, hence us just confirming in writing. With regards to e-mails from Heather, your file had been dictated on by the fee earner with conduct, Caroline prior to the e-mail advising your buyer had pulled out. We apologise for this oversight. If we can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us directly.
