Went to pick up wills, mentioned couldn’t find mums house deeds in general conversation, Jane later rang me to say that she’d done a search and found them, that’s going above and beyond in my opinion, exceptional service, thank you

First class service

Having been appointed executors for the will of a relative my wife and I instructed Andrea Ashton of Maxwell Hodge solicitors to act on our behalf. Andrea navigated us through the stages we were responsible for in a patient and professional manner and ensured assets and liabilities were properly accounted for. She prepared and submitted the documentation necessary for applying for Grant of Probate and inheritance tax paperwork as well as ensuring appropriate income tax returns were submitted using a third party firm of accountants. Her advice and guidance made a most daunting process much easier to negotiate and without doubt we would not have managed it without her.

After deciding to finally write our wills, we were recommended to Maxwell Hodge, in particular Christine Fazakerley. She was excellent, gave us advice, was courteous and thoroughly professional. We would have no hesitation in recommending her, and Maxwell Hodge - a pleasure to deal with.

Pamela lacey

I had an accident at working from the minute I spoke to Pamela lacey she made me feel at ease,she talked me through what would happen from start to finish and was more that happy to always answer any questions I had throughout this process.Nothing was too much trouble during this very difficult time in my life.She is extremely helpful and seamed to go above and beyond to get the best outcome for my case whilst remaining very friendly and professional at the same time.Her receptionist Viv was always an absolute delight and if i ever have the misfortune of having another accident again i would not hesitate to go with Maxwell Hodge and seek Pamela Lacey's advice. 10/10 would highly recommend.

We used this solicitors for both sale and purchase conveyancing over the last 6 months. We found their communication fairly slow and, at times, almost dismissive. Of greater concern was multiple miscalculations on stamp duty and documents either not being sent to us or gone missing at their end. Seemed to be nice enough people but probably understaffed. Wouldn't be using again.

A representative from Maxwell Hodge Limited responded to this review

Dear Matthew, thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We are sorry to hear that you weren't entirely satisfied with our service. Please do not hesitate to contact us directly, should you wish to discuss further. Yours sincerely, Simon Leyland
