Would never recommend or use again

The service was not satisfactory from start to finish, lost documents. Lied about contacting times for other businesses to gain correspondence. If you ring up and ask for a call back don’t expect one. Some people of the firm cannot look at a calendar and get a date correct. Lost important paperwork and then tried to blame external processing times of another company. Worst experience ever, would not recommend

Will update

I used the Denby Dale branch to conduct a review of my will and update and was extremely satisfied with all aspects of my dealing with them, everyone being relaxed and friendly. I would not hesitate to use them again.

Will writing.

The process of reviewing our wills and bringing them up to date was excellent. It was a pleasure to conduct the process online, not exactly face to face but that was no problem, our choice. The resultant wills were exactly what we wanted. Cost seemed reasonable compared to some stories we had heard. We chose not to deposit the completed wills. However there was one area of disappointment… admin. The initial process went well, but then elements of communication took on a rather annoying jumble. I appreciate that the company was in the process of moving etc., but the disjointed email trail let things down. Guess it just needs someone to review and oversee adim processes to get it sorted. Despite this glitch, would recommend the service, and we are happy with the practical outcome.

Will made easy

Great advice from start to finish, lovely solicitor. I went to make my will, not something we want to think about but it needed doing. I'm glad I chose Holden Smith Law.

Still waiting on my uncles will being sorted out. No communication from them whatsoever in last 16 months. And changed people dealing as wills executives 3 times over this period. And totally ignoring emailed information requests on updates.

Hi John, We are sorry to read about your experience. Please may we ask that you provide us with further information including the name and case reference number to info@holdensmith.co.uk and we shall look into this further. Kind regards, Holden Smith.

I recently used this firm for both the sale of my home and the purchase of a new one, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Tilly and Sara were both a pleasure to work with throughout the whole process. They were professional, responsive, and always willing to go the extra mile — nothing was ever too much hassle. They kept everything moving smoothly and made what could have been a stressful experience feel straightforward and well managed. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, friendly and proactive solicitor.

AWFUL COMPANY. Daniel Cox is the worst 'professional' I have ever dealt with.

Absolutely the worst people I have dealt with. If you are looking for honesty and a trustworthy team to get you through the house-buying process, then please avoid these. I had the worst experience ever, and the Branch Manager in Elland is an horrendous person to deal with, who was mainly anonymous and when he was present, either ignored or misled things. I can honestly say that the whole company just want the money. I have made complaints, and nobody even responds to these. Awful Awful Awful!!!!! If you want to feel at ease during the purchase of your property, these are not the people to use.

Alex Osborne, Private Client Executive from Holden Smith Law has been absolutely outstanding helping us get our documents back from a Law firm who went out of business. Alex kept us up to date and was excellent in continuing to keep us up to date and forwarding documents that he was able to retrieve. I would 100% recommend Alex and would not hesitate using Alex again in the future. Excellent service, communication and outcome.

Hi Wendy, We are pleased to read that you are happy with how Alex handled your case and have passed on your kind words to him. Kind regards, Holden Smith.

Francesca provided me with great support when buying my current home. I found her really responsive, acting quickly to address issues and challenges, and she provided me with high levels of communication so I was fully aware of what was happening at each stage of the process. I'd recommend her to anyone looking for conveyancing in the future.

Hi Matt, We are delighted to read that you are happy with how Francesca handled your house purchase and have passed on your kind words to her. We wish you all the best in your new home. Kind regards, Holden Smith.
