I asked Emma to represent me in a lease extension. She was helpful, responsive and proactive in dealing with the other side, who were particularly unresponsive. I have used BG several times in the past but it was the first time I had dealt with Emma. I can recommend her.

The property sale process was very comfortable. Communication was excellent and the portal used for sending information was easy to use. The task was effectively shared between two members of staff but it was still a seamless process.

Thank you for your feedback, Nicola. We’re pleased to hear James kept you well informed and provided a professional service throughout your property sale. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated.
AWFUL Stay Away!! 5 months and could not complete sale of flat in London. Louis Kirk went on leave without notifying anyone and his manager and the complaints dept never replied. Caused loss of sale total waste of time Pathetic!
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!

Thank you, Marc! We're delighted to hear that Helen and the team made your house move smooth and stress-free, especially with the stamp duty deadline pressure. We appreciate your kind words and are glad we could keep you on track. Enjoy your new home!
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! If you're looking for someone who properly understands and really cares about the matter you are dealinf with, then she's the one you need!

Thank you for your kind words, Camelia! We're thrilled to hear that Loise provided the care and attention you needed. Your recommendation means a lot to us!
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.

Laura’s help was very much appreciated during a difficult time. She is very knowledgeable, responsive and makes you feel as if you aren’t on your own. Highly recommend.

It’s the first time that I’ve been to court and Denise contacted me prior, to walk me through the process. It made things a lot easier on the day, and I was amazed at how comfortable I felt in her hands. The file, put together by Leah Heckles, was so professional. Everything the Judge needed to know about the case was there, in order. Denise was fabulous. She did all the talking and made everything seem quite effortless. Kept to point and truth and dealt with any complication with ease. After the hearing she took me in to a room just to see how I was and make sure that I was happy with the outcome, of which I was. I would highly recommend her for your court proceedings. Really happy and it made what I thought would be a stressful experience, very comfortable. Thank you Denise!
Thank you for your kind feedback, Sally. We’re pleased to hear that Denise was able to guide you through your first court experience in a clear and reassuring way, and that her support helped make the process feel more manageable. It’s also good to know that the preparation of your file by Leah was thorough and well organised.

Very helpful 👌
Thank you, Chris, for your feedback. We’re pleased to hear you found our service helpful, your support is appreciated.
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
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Sally. We’re delighted that Miriam, Bradley and James provided outstanding advice and service for your will writing and conveyancing.
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.
We are very sorry to hear about your experience and that our communication did not meet your expectations. This is not the standard of service we aim to provide, and we regret the frustration it caused. We take your feedback seriously and will be reviewing our processes to ensure improvements are made. If you are open to discussing this further, we would welcome the opportunity to address your concerns directly.
I can't recommend Helen and both Julie's enough. They were attentive, responsive, and friendly and helped me with any queries I had. I was keen for things to get moving along quickly, and they certainly made that happen. Thank you, ladies, for a smooth and pleasant experience!
Hi Vivek. Thank you for your kind feedback. We’re delighted to hear that Helen and both Julies provided attentive, responsive, and friendly support throughout your experience. It’s wonderful to know they helped make the process smooth and efficient.
I would not recommend their services to anyone looking for professionalism, basic respect or anything to be completed in a timely manner. They are rude and dismissive of legitimate concerns and will not return phone calls or emails.
Thank you for your honest feedback, Chloe. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet the professional standards we aim to uphold. We take your comments very seriously and regret any distress or frustration caused. Please know that we are committed to addressing these issues and improving our communication and service.
