Completed in the end, but a very difficult process getting there

I'll start off by saying we managed to exhange and complete on our sale and purchase, but the chain was very close to collapsing. Our "team" Vanisha and Jodie, started off with solid communication. But over the course of the 6 month process, communication became more and more difficult. We would rarely get email replies to seemingly simple queries ("is there anything we can help with? Have there been any updates?"). We would receive replies with spelling mistakes, contracts with my partner's name spelled incorrectly, and more. Trying to reach either of them by phone was difficult and we resorted to passing on messages. Overall, communication was poor. From our point of view, it wasn't clear how our case was handled. Queries would be left hanging for weeks and we would have to chase our solicitors - and other solicitors in the chain! Sure, this might not be unheard of, but considering the amount you pay for their services, you end up doing some of their work for them. On that note, I resorted to contacting other parties in the chain directly to speed things up (e.g. requesting documents, management packs) or contacting the council directly to resolve queries (e.g. section 106 documents). We would also receive communications at the end of the week, last thing on a Friday, when we can't do much to action queries - essentially wasting time as little can be done over the weekend. The result of this was a very, VERY stressful legal experience during an already stressful, life changing time in our lives. Buying/selling a house is already difficult as it is and I find it difficult to recommend Bishopsgate for the legal part of this process.

Terrible experience with Bishopsgate as conveyancers representing the buyer of my property, slow communication including never picking up the phone, repeated enquiries that had already been answered, and failed to pass on documentation and contracts for review in piecemeal fashion, waiting until near the end of the transaction to give everything to the buyer for review at once.

Hi Ben, Thank you for your review, although we note that you are not a client of this firm. We are therefore able to communicate directly and suggest that any queries are directed to your Solicitor. Kind regards, The Bishopsgate Law team

I recently engaged Bishopsgate Law for the purchase of my first property. I chose them because, when I was trying to find a solicitor, I received no responses to my inquiry forms or calls! This lack of communication raised a red flag for me, as I believe initial contact is crucial. However, when I called Bishopsgate, I was greeted with a friendly and professional conversation that immediately put me at ease and made me eager to have them handle my case. As a first-time buyer navigating all the processes, I felt a bit like a fish out of water! Since this was a leasehold property, it was a little more complicated. Amanda McNabola was assigned to my case, and I must say that from start to finish, the service I received from Amanda was fantastic. The communication was excellent, and I truly felt that they had my best interests in mind. There were delays from the sellers and their solicitors that created significant obstacles! This made for a very tight deadline, but Amanda and her team went above and beyond to ensure that the sale was completed on time. I am incredibly grateful for her and her team's efforts. Even after the completion, there was an issue that was supposed to be handled by the sellers' side but wasn't. I brought it up to the estate agents, who were a bit dismissive, telling me to go back to my solicitors. I reached out to Amanda, and without hesitation, she emailed them, and the problem was resolved! When I shared with my friends and family how quickly communication was handled, they were very impressed and wished they could say the same! Amanda McNabola is truly an asset to Bishopsgate Law, and I am very thankful for her services.

Good morning, Charlotte, Thank you so much for this wonderful review about Bishopsgate Law and for specifically commenting on the efforts of Amanda, this is very much appreciated. We will be sure to pass on these wonderful comments to Amanda as we know that she will be thrilled to read the same. We look forward to no doubt assisting you again in the future. Kind regards, The Bishopsgate Law team

We found Bishopsgate through a personal recommendation and were told that their communication was excellent. As first time buyers we went with them as we were a bit clueless and knew we would want to be able to reach out and ask questions during the process. However, from the beginning communication was poor or non-existent. It was impossible to speak to anyone on the phone and we were promised calls back that never materialised. Out of the two members of staff assigned to our case, there didn't seem to be a time in the 5 months we dealt with them that they were both in the office at the same time. Very often no one would be covering in their absence. Due to poor organisation our exchange was delayed and then there was little to no communication in the week following. We then found out that both of the members of staff dealing with our case were suddenly 'no longer part of the business' but again nothing seemed to have been put in place to deal with this. We ended up having to exchange and complete on the same day with very short notice and causing great inconvenience and stress for our sellers. The whole process was incredibly stressful and I would not recommend using this firm.

Hi there Hannah, Thank you for your review, although we are of course concerned to read its contents as it is certainly at odds with how we do things here at Bishopsgate Law. Please would you kindly email complaints@bishopsgatelaw.com so that a member of our management team can identify your matter and reach out to you to discuss further, if you would be open to doing so. Kind regards, The Bishopsgate Law team

Bishopsgate Law assisted in the process of remortgaging my property and it was overall a positive experience . The type of mortgage I was offered as a non UK resident, was quite different to my previous one, but the solicitor, Amanda McNabola, rang me to clarify and explain the differences to that of a conventional mortgage, which I found very useful. Amanda was always quick to respond to my email queries, and she was great at keeping me informed during the whole process. I needed to have the mortgage settlement by a specific date and she managed to get all the information from various parties as well as the bank to get it finalised just in time by the end date of my previous mortgage term, despite my very slow and unhelpful property management company! I also had dealings initially with Evie Williams, due to the complexity of the new mortgage, who assisted with putting pressure on the management company. The reason for giving only 4 stars is that I ended up paying a little more than the initial quote and a few miscalculations by the law firm, although these were quickly rectified I may add. All in all a positive experience with friendly and knowledgeable people!

Outstanding service!

Throughout the sale of our property, Jayden was our primary point of contact. He consistently responded to our questions promptly and never hesitated to call us directly whenever clarification was needed, ensuring we always had clear and timely information. He delivered a high standard of service from start to finish, even when certain steps were delayed due to the buyer’s solicitor needing to provide updates before matters could move forward. We truly appreciate the support provided by Jayden and Bishopsgate Law. Their professionalism and assistance made the process far smoother, and we are very grateful for everything they did for us.

from Bishopsgate Law Ltd

Thank you for the lovely feedback! We are so pleased Jayden could provide such a high standard of service and keep you well-informed throughout the process. Congratulations on your property sale!

Flat sale and house purchase

I recently completed a sale with Bishopsgate Law and worked with Jodie, Sofina and Pak-ka. They handled a difficult set of buyers solicitors with real composure. They stayed proactive at every step, kept me updated, and made the whole process feel manageable. They were engaged, quick to respond, and genuinely easy to work with. I felt in safe hands throughout. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a team who actually gets things done.

Bishopsgate Law Ltd

Thank you, James, for your feedback. We are delighted to hear that Jodie, Sofina, and Pak-ka provided proactive, professional, and supportive guidance throughout your sale and purchase. It’s wonderful to know you felt confident and well-informed at every stage, and your recommendation is greatly appreciated.

Very efficent and helpful - great communication

I had the pleasure of dealing with Bishopsgate Law for the sale of my current property, and the purchase of a new one. Despite the many challenges experienced along the way with chains falling through a few times (through no fault of mine or Bishopsgate Law) the team looking after me (Yana Cox and Claire Ryles) took it all in their stride and remained patient, friendly, and helpful throughout. The sheer speed I received each reply to any questions massively impressed me throughout also. I was consistently made to feel like their most valued client, which really helped to take the stress out of the whole legal process. I was also impressed by the fact that even if Yana or Claire were out of the office, those standing in for them, and assisting them (Pak-ka Yeung, Jo Babland, and Janine Prescott) were just as quick at responding and providing helpful assistance. I would not hesitate in recommending Bishopgate Law’s services to anyone, and would certainly use them again in the future!

Bishopsgate Law Ltd

Thank you for your kind words and recommendation, Richard. We're so pleased Yana, Claire, and the team made the process smoother for you, especially during the challenges along the way. It’s great to hear our communication and support stood out — we’ll be sure to pass on your feedback. We’d be glad to assist you again in the future!

Best Solicitors by a mile

We recently completed our property purchase with Bishopsgate Law, and as first-time buyers we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We were fortunate to be assigned Ruby and Donna, who were absolutely outstanding throughout the whole process. From the very beginning, they made what could have been a daunting journey so much easier by putting our minds at ease and giving us clear, honest, and practical advice. They went above and beyond to identify any potential issues early on and ensured these were challenged and resolved quickly. One thing that really stood out for us was the communication. When researching solicitors, we noticed many reviews of other firms mentioned poor communication—but with Ruby and Donna this couldn’t have been further from the truth. Every email was responded to the same day, and any scheduled calls were always prompt and professional. That level of attentiveness gave us so much confidence and peace of mind. After months of working together, we can honestly say that without their dedication, patience, and expertise, we wouldn’t have been able to get over the line and secure our dream home. We are truly grateful to Bishopsgate Law, and especially to Ruby and Donna, for making this possible. We really cannot thank you both enough. We would highly recommend Bishopsgate Law, and particularly Ruby and Donna, to anyone looking for solicitors who genuinely care about their clients and deliver an exceptional service.

Bishopsgate Law Ltd

Thank you so much, Dexter! We’re thrilled Ruby and Donna could make your first property purchase such a positive experience. Your kind words mean a lot, and we’re so glad we could help you secure your dream home!

In April this year we sold our house in London. Marianna Fratello from the Hertfordshire office was absolutely fabulous, easy to work with and very efficient from start to finish. The fees were transparent and any issues to do with the property was baught to my attention immediately and dealt with promptly. I would highly recommend Bishopsgate Law and would be using again in the very near future. Ps: Thanks to all the team who answered any queries when Marianna was on annual leave!

We recently used Bishopsgate Law as our property solicitors and could not be happier with the service we received. Ramnik was our lead solicitor throughout the transaction and was outstanding from start to finish. Despite us being at the bottom of a very difficult and complex chain, Ramnik and her team made the entire process seem remarkably straightforward and stress-free. Communication was exceptional. Emails were often replied to within an hour, which gave us great confidence and kept everything moving smoothly. The team was professional, proactive, and always willing to explain the next steps clearly. The service was also very competitively priced, offering excellent value without compromising on quality. We would highly recommend Bishopsgate Law to anyone looking for reliable, efficient, and responsive property solicitors. A huge thank you to Ramnik and the entire team for helping us successfully complete our move. Thank you, Ramnik! Jas and Arpna
