Horrific Experience

An absolutely awful experience with Tamara that made us stop using Amicus Law and move to another solicitor when buying our house.

Having had a call from Tamara and her shouting down the phone at me and not letting me get a word in regarding a matter that had previously come to light when we first purchased our property. Tamara reduced me to tears and then continued to shout at my husband put the phone down on him and then blame my husband. When asked for the recording of the call it could not be found! Surprise surprise.

If you are looking to use a solicitor give Amicus Law a miss unless you like to be verbally abused.

This process for us was potentially very emotional and stressful and not one we wished to take but thanks to the wonderful commitment of Heidi Cowling was an utterly seamless process. Heidi kept us informed of all developments with full and understandable explanations of the legal processes we needed to follow . We trusted her completely and with good reason as the sale was completed without delay and to our complete satisfaction .

All 3 of the above title were several years out of date and needed updating. As a client I found all concerned who I dealt with to be helpful, up to date professional legal knowledge, good £ value overall, and with integrity, kind thinking, and all amendments completed in a very timely way. All recommended.

Sale of Tenanted house February 2025

This review is for a different branch.

We engaged Amicus Law in respect of the sale of a rented property in York. The firm was readily approachable by telephone; subsequent communication with the solicitor and her office staff was reliably prompt; the legal process was explained and queries clarified. When difficulties were encountered both with the buyer's delays in their mortgage offer, and with the local council's rented accommodation regulations, these were patiently managed and satisfactorily resolved. Documentation was issued in a timely way, was accurate, and took account of changing circumstances or requirements. Amicus Law's fees represented excellent value for money, compared with similar previous sales by various firms. We are grateful to Andrea Parsons, our solicitor, and to conveyancing assistant Donna Everett.

Your kind words mean a great deal to the team. Kind regards Amicus Law

My girlfriend and I had the pleasure of working with Amacus Solicitors for the sale of both our properties, and we couldn’t be more impressed with their exceptional service. We mainly dealt with Paul Foster, who was absolutely brilliant throughout the entire process. Paul was consistently professional, approachable, and went above and beyond to keep things moving efficiently. We also had the pleasure of working with Bill Osborne, who made sure we were looked after at every stage.

The process took around nine months, but Amacus were incredibly patient and supportive the entire time. We found ourselves in regular weekly contact with Paul and Bill, and their level of communication was far superior to that of our estate agents. They truly did everything in their power to ensure that both the sale of our properties and the purchase of our new one progressed as quickly and smoothly as possible.

We highly recommend Amacus Solicitors and can’t thank Paul, Bill, and the team enough for all their hard work. If you’re looking for reliable, professional, and dedicated solicitors, look no further.
5 stars all the way 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
