Excellent service from start to finish!

Jodie and Laura at BG have been absolutely outstanding with their service when dealing with the sale of our property. Right from the start, we have been kept informed super effectively and every update has been conveyed to us promptly. I cannot thank Jodie & Laura and the BG team enough, and would highly recommend.

Excellent advice and help from Denise

When we had to serve a Section 21 notice on a tenant Denise gave very good and clear advice and dealt with the work required very quickly. The rules around such matters was just changing and as such it was new territory for everyone but Denise was on top of the issues and gave us a lot of confidence. She was very flexible over timescales for potential further work which saved us money in the long run.

We were working to a very tight deadline as executors of my parents estate, and Greg went out of his way to deal with a mountain of enquieries form the buyers solicitors, and was always at the end of the telephone to help us imediately with any questions we had. Greg made the whole experience as stress free as possible.

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.

A house move is potentially the most stressful time of our lives. Trying to beat the labour deadline for an increase in stamp duty just triples that. But Helen Kent and her team, phenomenal. I had a hiccup at the start where I missed some paperwork requests, but that was no problem at all. You chased me, and everyone involved and ensured we were in time for the deadline, and kept me in the loop right up until I had the keys in my hand. Thanks so much!

Many thanks to solicitor Miss Loise Holmes for taking as much time as needed to gather all the required information, following it up and advising in the best possible way. She showed me she truely cares about it and really puts the efforts into sorting it out!

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.

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

Do yourself a favour and find a different solicitors. Used them recently and communication from them is really poor. Don't reply to emails in a timely manner and don't reply to answer phone messages at all. Will never use again.
