Unsworth Rose (solicitors) LLP

My sister and I needed to sell our deceased Mum's house and found Anne Sinfield through recommendation when we asked for Conveyancing Solicitor reviews on a St Albans/Harpenden forum website.
So glad we did! Anne was a pleasure to deal with throughout: professional but friendly; clear about the scope of services we would need; quoted accurately and kept in touch regularly with us whenever there was progress or we needed to do something.
When it became apparent that the buyer was a very difficult person to deal with, we were particularly impressed with, and grateful for, Anne's advice to us about when/how to respond to sometimes unreasonable demands. She's a very astute lady, and we felt fully supported and had absolute confidence in her advice throughout. I would whole-heartedly recommend Anne Sinfield and Unsworth Rose on the basis of the excellent service we received. Many thanks Anne!

I cannot recommend them. I personally felt that Mark Unsworth was disrespectful towards me when I approached them regarding their service - I was advised that I have a negligence claim against them which I will pursue and when I spoke to Mark Unsworth about the problems I had with their service I felt offended by his attitude towards me - he laughed at me and was disrespectful and tried to intimidate me by saying that he would "counter sue" me if I lodged a claim against him (there are no ground, but if the claim against them would fail they would be entitled to their costs - which is normal). I would not recommend them, I purchased a property in 2009 and to this day have many problems with the purchase and sale of this property, which could have been avoided if they had taken more time to advise me personally and properly.
I felt their style was too informal and their "leaflet" (that I never received) was on a sheet of paper - no logo or anything.
Also, Mark Unsworth appeared to be quite friendly and constructive when discussing the inital problem, which was probably just to poach for information that he could use to his advantage - as soon as his professional negligence insurance got involved he was unfriendly and disrespectful.

This is not a nice manner to work with people - I lost complete trust in them and regret having ever come across this firm.

I will give an update on how my claim against them went.
