Plot sale/Shucksmith

Both Michaela and I have previous experience of marketing a plot , but this sale proved to be one of the most challenging experiences either of us have ever endured and will no doubt be top story in Michaela’s memoirs ! It tested our patience to the limit but Michaela remained steadfastly professional.

Excellent Advice and Service.

I contacted BG solicitors in regards a tenancy eviction. My enquiry was directed to Denise Bell who I found to be very knowledgeable, professional and proactive in communicating necessary details. Denise guided me through the eviction process, making it easily digestible and understandable at all times. Thankfully for me the process was fairly painless, but I would still very much recommend Denise for any tenancy issues as I felt confident in her ability to get the job done. Thank you for your help.

I quickly became comfortable with Michaela's approach to what was for me a very significant transaction. Although the process was prolonged, and sometimes challenging for us both, I was reassured by the calm and efficient way Michaela navigated us through the difficulties to reach a satisfactory conclusion.

Efficient Friendly Service

Brad helped us with a purchase which we thought would be a complicated and lengthy process. However, from the start we have received a very friendly and efficient service with excellent communication throughout. Elements of the purchase process which we didn’t understand were explained and we guided through to ensure we did everything correctly. We are very happy with our experience with Brad and BG Solicitors. .

Great efficient service

High recommend. Brad handled the purchase of our freehold with professionalism and expertise throughout. From the outset, he clearly explained what was required, what to expect, and the steps involved, ensuring we were fully informed at every stage. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and prompt responses whenever needed. His thorough approach and attention to detail made what could have been a complex process straightforward and easy to understand. Brad guided us through each stage with confidence, making the transaction smooth and stress-free. I would not hesitate to recommend Brad to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and professional service.

We used BG solicitors for will writing (Miriam) & conveyancing (Bradley & James) received great advice and outstanding service from everyone. I've moved house several times and never had a solicitor so responsive. Any questions were answered same day, there was a portal to keep up to date with progress. When things got sticky enquiries were made promptly. With our will writing everything is fully explained and any questions answered. I am fully confident we now have the right protections for our family. Fees are competitive, there are 5 office across the Hunber region Hessle, Barton, Scunthorpe, Grimsby and Louth so easy to pop in for appointnents or to drop off/collect. I would highly recommend

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Sally. We’re delighted that Miriam, Bradley and James provided outstanding advice and service for your will writing and conveyancing.

I would like to express our sincere thanks to Emma Hudson and Brad Whiteley at BG Solicitors in Grimsby. It was always going to be a fraught transaction due to the timescale that we had to work to. In addition to this, the onerous requirements of other parties. However Emma was calm and persevered to enable a successful completion on the deadline. Thankyou so much.

TERRIBLE. Avoid this firm. Unhelpful and unresponsive staff who don't even follow their own formal complaints procedure, and when they do, only say what they need to to cover their backs if the SRA got involved. I was given a new solicitor and didn't even know their name for 2 and a half months, it wasn't until I mentioned pulling out of the sale that they got in touch. Weird! The negative reviews do not lie.

CUSTOMERS BEWARE After I have use this company for many years and had fantastic service from Georgina Gibbon I will say that where it stops. As Georgia suddenly had a disagreement and left the company one of my sales had gone to the grimsby office which I was very dubious of as poor service from there is an understatement. Ben Barber (Partner) had recently acted for me in a litigation case for me to which because he was o leave Laura Nee (Partner) represented me in court and to say the judge was not happy was an understatement as he told her how badly she was prepared for the day and that she had not even read the file to which she then went on to blame Ben Barber to me say she had what she had. I found her blame culture to be something I have heard in the school playground when nothing was her fault when Infact i have never been so poorly represented. So as they have wrongly deducted money from funds of the sale of the land that has taken forever to complete then I have been left with no option than to take Ben Barber and BG Solicitors to court to recover my money. So in a nut shell this is not a company I would recommend and I would advise you to read the bad reviews before your intrust your sale of a property and any foam of litigation with this company.

Nice place, if a little pricey. But most solicitors are these days, though these seem to be the cheapest around. Stairs are a little difficult for people with mobility issues, but they do have a disabled entrance,which is a nice touch.

from BG Solicitors LLP

We appreciate your honest thoughts on our pricing and are glad we could offer competitive rates for your matter. We also take note of your comments regarding accessibility; while our historic stairs can pose a challenge, we are pleased that our dedicated step-free entrance made your visit more comfortable. Thank you again for choosing us, Karegian, and we hope to welcome you back in the future!
