Awful experience

I honestly don’t know where to start… We had multiple questions go unanswered, phones calls never returned, emails ignored, arrogant responses when we complained and after complaining there were still periods where no one would answer ours or the other sides solicitors questions.

Pattinsons recommended we use Bindman and because of this, I lost a little faith in Pattinsons too.

I’ve reviewed my emails with Pattinsons, Bindmans and the other sides estate agents today just to be sure what I am writing is factual and just reading them over and having no response, or 1 of 3 questions answered and having to wait weeks before my other 2 were addressed, just really angers me.

Based on our experience, we would never use nor would we ever recommend Bindmans solicitors.

If like us you were naive and trusted Pattinsons recommendation before discovering these reviews…. Good luck.

Truly the most awful solicitors anyone can use. STAY AWAY.

They barely know what they're doing. They will fob you off constantly. They don't understand anything to the point where I am having to google things and send them information on what to do. They seem to both be overworked and completely incompontent at the same time.

It's baffling how they are still in business.

You have been warned!

Calls and emails are NEVER answered let alone acknowledged. Highly unprofessional and in two words beyond pointless. In the end I had to use another solicitor to finish the purchase of the property. You have been warned.

Horrendous

10 months to sort house sale and purchase so plenty of time to dot the i’s and cross the T.
Night before we are due to move, at 4.55pm, we get a call saying funds are in backlog and sale wasn't 100% happening the next day!!! Surely this sort of thing should be sorted well in advance. Our case worker - we had to chase and chase him. He never replied with information we requested via letter or email - only phone - making me wonder about him leaving no papertrail.
No solicitors worth their salt should leave customers in this mess without assistance. Shame as the partner Les Bindman has a good reputation - but if you get lumbered with a co worker, you may not be in for the smoothest of sale / purchases.

Avoid

Would avoid using for housing sales experienced their poor standards twice. Very slow and not proactive in completing house sales effectively and efficiently. Very poor communication skills, very abrupt considering they are working for you, and unable to accept criticism in service levels or apologise for them. Will never use this company again.
