The biggest mistake
Weeks of no communication and risking the whole sale. The most stressful part of buying a house, by far, was dealing with Franklins.

Weeks of no communication and risking the whole sale. The most stressful part of buying a house, by far, was dealing with Franklins.
This is the 3rd time I have used Franklins and I feel I can trust them to get the job done without delays. Communication has always been good and although not the cheapest, you get good service for your money.
Thought Franklins had done an amazing on my property purchase in August 2022. Unfortunately in April 2024 I discovered that the management fee accounts dating back as far as 2017 had not been finalised and all of the adjustments were now my financial responsibility. As my acting solicitor on my purchase it was Franklins responsibility to have found this out and advise me of it pre purchase. As it stands at the moment I am £1300 out of pocket with another 2 years 8 months of adjustments that date prior to my purchase that I will be liable for when the accounts are completed. I have been in contact with Franklins since April and gone through their 8 week complaint process and all I have had back is "they are conacting the sellers solicitor". Appalling!
We contacted the conveyancing department yesterday regarding issues with my daughter's house move. We live in Australia. Managed to speak to the person responsible for dealing with the move, insisted she send us the information necessary for us to assist with speeding up the matter. This person assured us that she will send documents through via email within a day. It is day 2 and we have not received anything from her. When we spoke to her on the phone from Australia, we were insistence that she acts quickly as this may impact on my daughter's house purchase. Potentially she could lose the purchase after having already waiting for 8 months for Franklins to conduct the purchase. We are totally disappointed and and dissatisfied with the conveyancing team and their attitude with the handling of properties purchase. We are surprised with the number of negative reviews they are still in business. The next stage would be for us to contact the legal ombudsman regarding their practice.
We dealt with Shakira , who looked after us while we updated our Wills and put LPAs in place . At all times she was professional , polite , knowledgeable and efficient . I would definitely recommend Franklins and Sharika .
Expert, clear and reassuring when it mattered most I recently used Franklins Solicitors LLP for advice and cannot speak highly enough of the service I received from Georgia Harris in the Corporate Services Team. From our first meeting she gave me immediate confidence that I was being well looked after. She has a real ability to take complex legal matters and explain them clearly and simply, making sure I understood my options fully, including any risks and potential consequences. That meant I could make informed decisions at every stage rather than simply being told what to do. Georgia was also consistently prompt in responding to my questions throughout the process — something that made a real difference when dealing with a stressful situation. If you are looking for an solicitor who combines genuine expertise with clear communication and real care for their client, I would not hesitate to recommend Georgia Harris and the team at Franklins Solicitors LLP.
