Paul was recommended to me for some personal advice. From the beginning, Paul understood what was required, was diligent and quick to respond and managed the matter in a professional manner.
A pleasure to work with and no hesitation in recommending.

Used Blacks for a Company Purchase of a buy to let. Dealt with a lady who was brilliant. Communicative, straight forward, responsive and got on with the job. I have dealt with Solicitors for years , at times very tedious. This was a breath of fresh air. Would recommend them to anyone.

Sophie Jones dealt with the purchase of our first home, she was professional throughout and helped us understand everything that was going on during the purchase of our property.
We didn’t have to ask her twice about anything, she was always on the ball and got everything done before we even asked about it.
We’ll be back to use Blacks and Sophie again in a few years!

We chose Blacks as our Solicitors and we must say that we never regretted a minute of it. Sophie Jones and Rebecca Pickles were excellent and a credit to your company. We had two houses fall through and they supported us with positive professional attitudes throughout. On purchasing our current home they were always available for any questions we had and always replied to us in a professional and timely manner. We would not hesitate to use this company again and would definitely recommend Blacks to friends. All in all well worth a 5 star rating.

As first time buyers, the process of buying a property can be quite daunting. However, Sophie and the team were always on hand to reassure and answer any questions that we had. Thank you for making our first house purchase so straightforward and stress free! We would highly recommend and will definitely be using Blacks for future services.

I recently instructed Blacks and the service I received was exemplar.
I would particularly like to thank Bilal and his team for their patience, perseverance, time and effort.
If the need should arise, I will have no hesitation in instructing Blacks Solicitors again and can certainly recommend the Company to others.
A big thank you to Bilal and his team.

Thanks to Clare and Crystal, my partner and I were recently able to complete on our first home purchase. Both Clare and Crystal were so helpful and really explained the process of how home buying works from a solicitors point of view and what we needed to provide and even helped us over a couple of hurdles! This was super helpful as being first time buyers we had no idea and there was a huge amount of paperwork to get through. Thankfully they made it easy, quick and pain free and now we are officially home owners. Thank you!

At the offset we thought Blacks were an average solicitor but then huge problems started with our buyer's solicitors to the point when we all thought after six months everything was going to fall through....
Then came Sophie Arnold, a solicitor in shining armour on her white horse and literally went at our case relentlessly until yesterday we finally arrived at our dream home. I don't doubt at all we wouldn't be here without her and the team.
Our buyer went with a cheap and cheerful solicitor, we went for a more established one and wow, could you see the difference!
We got the bill for Blacks and literally said "they earnt every penny of it".
Highly recommended for even the most basic sale as you don't know you need a decent solicitor until you do and by that time it can be too late.

We decided to go with the firm after many good review regardless that their fees were £500+ more than other firms. We already told up front that we needed to complete within 7 weeks and in the end lengthen to 10 weeks to meet the stamp duty deadline. Yet, they keep saying the files under review with senior and also the solicitor in charge was on leave twice without anyone continue to process the file, leading to delay. I already asked if anyone else can act on it while current one was on leave and yet they keep saying file processed in date ordered and no one could help. The partner dealing with lease extension was very helpful ând worked late to try to make it faster but the conveyancing solicitor kept using the excuses to delay ánd show no willingness to help us. Now it will cost us another £2.5k for the delay. They seem to have a very lengthy approval review process and will not willing to speed up. DO NOT USE IF YOU WANT TO COMPLETE WITH A DEADLINE.

We were recommended to use Blacks - what a mistake - it was a total fiasco, calls never returned, emails ignored - important original documents (LPA) " lost "internally despite them being sent recorded delivery they kept insisting they didn't have them . Eventually found them but then returned them to a totally different person !!! and it was left to us to track them down. We had to dismiss them as we would have lost our buyer due to their incompetence. Avoid, avoid, avoid

The experience I had was abit of both, they helped alot but at times they were also really slow at getting back to us. I think if it wasn't for the sellers agency (Your Move) pushing them I probably wouldn't have got my house til next year.

Very responsive and efficient! Yunus and his team are a pleasure to deal with. The speed and efficiency of service was exceptional. The personal touch is key for me, for a company that is so large and so busy, to feel like you are the only client makes you really appreciate the effort that goes into every single case. The knowledge and expertise of Yunus is incredible, so grateful to have found such a reliable, honest and straightforward solicitor. Ambreen kept me in the loop every step of the way too, the whole team couldn’t have been more helpful.
