Service paid for but not provided and zero communication

In August 2020, I was asked to pay for the legal services in the simple matter of extending a head lease and registration of the extended head lease with the Land Registry so that my extended sub-lease could itself be registered with the Land Registry. I paid the fees immediately in August 2020 for the work to be carried out - I believe that the trading name of the firm then was Campions. Some 6 years on and the work hasn't been completed - certainly not registered at the Land Registry. This has caused huge financial problems and immense stress. Despite attempts to contact Betteridge and Sills in Nottingham repeatedly over the last two to three weeks - phone, emails etc, my solicitor and I have been totally ignored. Not even a single acknowledgement. Not sure that there can be extenuating circumstances given 6 years of inactivity - my solicitor evidently should have chased the matter but hasn't either but zero communication is inexcusable.

Voluntary First Registration

We entrusted Silks & Betteridge with the voluntary first registration of the property we had owned since 1972. This was carried out without the utmost professionalism. We were informed about the process, how long it would probably take and, kept fully informed during the process. Jo Smithson was excellent and responded to our queries in a very timely manner, for which we thank her.

Land Registration

We appointed S&B LLP to apply for First Voluntary Land Registration. We were provided with an upfront quote for the cost which was extremely competitive. The whole process was very straightforward and dealt with in an efficient and friendly manner. Would not hesitate to use S&B again.

Mathew Daurge was recommended to me and my wife by our Mortgage Advisor. Myself and my wife were purchasing our first home in Swindon, Mathew was incredibly professional and communicated us through every step, we even passed his details onto friends and family who have had equally amazing service. Will always recommend him to everyone.

Thank you to Stephen and all of the Orange team at Campions for completing the conveyancing and ILA for our recent property purchase. Despite the whole conveyancing process taking a lot longer than we hoped due to searches taking extremely long time to be returned by the search provider, the quality of work delivered by the team at Campions was excellent. The team were very friendly and all of our questions were dealt with promptly. I would be happy to use Campions again.

A representative from Sills & Betteridge LLP responded to this review

Thank you very much for this Benjamin. Orange team are very pleased with these comments.

Part way through a slightly more complicated remortgage on land to build a house, Luke has been extremely responsive and helpful. Had a response this morning in about 10 minutes on a query that made me remember past experiences with other solicitors, typically waiting days and having to chase consistently for an answer.

Needed independent legal advice forms to be filled out to secure a mortgage through a limited company. Fast, efficient service and at a sensible price and significantly less than my solicitors doing the the mortgage transaction. Second time of using and will use again.

Best Conveyancing I've Experienced

S&B came recommended based on the fact that they keep the client informed regarding progress, which was important for me. My purchase should have been straightforward but a few complications extended the timeline, S&B were clearly more proactive that my seller's solicitor which was frustrating especially as my seller was as keen as I to complete. I thing S&B performed far better than others I have used and I'm sure had I used a competitor the process would have taken even longer. Very friendly and professional throughout.

Good Service

We have recently used Sills & Betteridge as our conveyancing solicitors. We found them professional and courteous at all times. We had Team Chloe and they were great (especially Karen), they answered all my queries promptly and never failed to get back to me. I would definitely recommend them.

Thank you for your professionalism and exceptional service

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the professionalism, expertise and support provided by Aleks throughout my settlement agreement process. From the outset, Aleks took the time to understand both the legal and personal context surrounding my circumstances. She carefully reviewed the agreement, explained each clause in clear and accessible language and ensured that I fully understood the implications of the terms being offered. Her advice was balanced, pragmatic, and tailored to my objectives. Aleks approached the negotiations in a constructive and professional manner, identifying key areas where improvements could be sought while maintaining a collaborative tone with the employer. I particularly valued her attention to detail, thorough preparation and ability to translate complex legal concepts into practical guidance. Communication throughout the process was excellent. Aleks was responsive, approachable and patient in addressing my questions and concerns. She took the time to review additional information as it emerged and incorporated relevant points into the negotiation strategy, ensuring that my interests were properly represented. What stood out most was Aleks's combination of legal expertise and genuine empathy. At what was a particularly stressful and uncertain time, she provided reassurance, clear direction and measured advice that helped me navigate the process with confidence. I would not hesitate to recommend Aleksandra Flack to anyone seeking employment law advice, particularly in relation to settlement agreements, redundancy matters and workplace negotiations.

Outstanding service

S&B have been absolutely wonderful - helping me recently to both buy and sell properties .. Wendy and Sally, in particular, were so kind, patient, discreet and understanding .. and, of course, knowledgeable .. they kept me well informed throughout and replied to queries and emails very quickly .. I really cannot recommend Dawn and her team too highly!
