Needed quick help with a deed

My experience with Dominic was absolutely perfect from start to finish. I needed a quick deed of trust due to not being informed by our solicitors dealing with our house move they couldn't do it and it was holding us up. Dominic explained the process and possible timescales openly and honestly. I will recommend Dominic and the team at the next opportunity. Thank you!

Tim was the epitome of efficient

Special thanks to Tim Hare for being so so efficient when handling our sale. Not only was it month end, it was the end of the financial year AND the last day before stamp duty increases. Tim was on it from the outset and even worked the Sunday before to ensure everything completed as hoped and planned. If everyone had Tim’s work ethic and conscience, transactions such as this would be so much smoother. Thanks Tim!

Recommend Holden Smith Lae

We were assigned Nicola and we were aiming to finish before stamp duty deadline however due to unforeseen circumstances on the vendor's end we were unable to. Nicola worked hard to ensure we did not miss the timeline and was always swift with responses. Whatever had to be done on our end was done efficiently and in a timely manner. I have no doubt that if it wasn't for the vendor's personal circumstances we would have completed in March.

A representative from Holden Smith Law Limited responded to this review

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a great review, Nicola really does appreciate that you recognised all her efforts.

Not the best

Depending who you get will depend on the experience - I have used them previously which is why i went back to use them again - unfortunately the person who dealt with me previously was leaving and we were given different contact details. Communication throughout was quite poor and on day of exhange/complete myself and Estate Agents were doing all the running around to ensure we could complete on a Friday - if it wasnt for our sense of urgency i highly doubt we would have completed on the day we did.

I used this company twice in the same year. First experience was good, no issues so I thought I'd use them again when selling my house. Bad decision. Their communication was very poor, they kept asking the same questions over and over again after providing them with all the information on each occasion. They lost a document I had provided for financial evidence. I personally took the document into their office so they could take a copy, I told them I needed it back, a few days later I rang them asking for the document back, they said they hadn't received it, I told them they had as I had given it to them myself, they said they would have to check their archive, they came back to me saying they couldn't find it. I would not use or recommend them.

After two emails from my wife and two voicemails from myself over the past three weeks we have still not received any response from Nicole at Holden Smith. We have a simple query, following a conveyancing last year, regarding deeds. The basic courtesy of a response one way or the other is the least that I would expect. Appalling service, stay away from this company.

Very disappointed with the service received. Particularly after the sale of our property once they'd received the fees owed. We have been lied to and told our Land Registration had been submitted in 2022, had to chase this many many times, given multiple excuses, but it's clear on the paperwork (2.5 years late) that it was only requested in Jan 2024 after I'd chased and chased. A delay is forgivable, but lying to paying customers isn't! An example of a solicitors that focuses on number of clients (profit) and not customer service.

We are really sorry you feel disappointed with the outcome of your matter. Please do contact us directly for a further explanation as to the current position.

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.

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.

Fantastic service provided by the conveyancing team. Special thanks to Lucy, Lauren and Tilly. I was let down by my mortgage advisors and had no clue as to what the next steps were, in order to repay my HTB loan to the government and remortgage, I was lost. Lauren immediately took ownership and went above and beyond her normal role to sort every detail of the application. Without her, I wouldn’t have been able to complete this procedure. I was so worried and stressed about this remortgage until I instructed Holden Smith to help me. I highly recommend this company if you want a smooth, worry free process. Thank you all again!

Hi Elisabeth, Thank you for recommending our services. We are delighted to read that you are happy with how our conveyancing team handled your case and have passed on your kind words to them. Kind regards, Holden Smith.

Written on behalf of may parents that have recently moved home. Zack and the team made the process feel easy and simple, especially as we had a few issues with our purchase. Zack and Julie responded quickly to any queries we had and got issues resolved quickly. We will definitely recommend Holden Smith to family and friends in the future and we can't thank them enough for helping us through the process.

If you use these people, don't expect too much, and my advice is that if Daniel Cox is assigned to you, you run faster than Usain Bolt. This guy doesn't have a professional bone in his body.... I am still having issues, and we are nearly 12 months after completion.....
