This went badly from the beginning. Onboarding is a mess and incredibly slow as it took about 1 month. Other solicitors have an app that onboards electronically and takes about 3 days. They didn’t read my documents properly and then told me that I had unreasonable expectations when I demanded that they read things properly before sending them.

Examples of all the issues over 2 months;
Onboarding took about a month.
Estate agent sent them incorrect details about their own firm and I had to correct them, they didn’t notice - which would have later on affected my mortgage deposit.
Not reading my proof of funds thoroughly and mistaking my sources of funds for incompatible sources. If I hadn’t already researched ISA compatibility, then it could have made someone pull out of their purchase.
- It took weeks to start conducting searches (about 4 weeks).
When they did start finally finish the searches, they then didn’t actually share the search pack without prompt even though they told me it was done.
Not very thorough with enquiries e.g. Discrepancies as to whether or not I am liable for a service charge. There is no acknowledgement of this discrepancy.
The legal team have deemed the lease to be ineligible, whereas the sellers solicitors do not. I asked that their next steps were to resolve this impasse as I obviously cannot purchase a property without understanding what it says. They told me that I had unreasonable expectations regarding this. As if it is unreasonable to expect my legal advisers to fully read the lease?!
sending me the wrong documents (relating to another flat entirely which I have no involvement with without checking whether it is relevant for my case

Received great service and legal advice from Helen who represented me in a friendly and professional way.

Lewis Battersby was quick, efficient, and really put our minds at rest. His initial advice settled us and his intervention resolved the matter within days.

Conveyance was bit delayed but the team did their best ensuring completion date deadline. Swift response to all emails. Much appreciated to V Davis and team

Wilford smith were very easy to work with. The sale completed quickly and at no point was it delayed by our side.
I would use this service next time and am looking to use them for a will writing service also.

Good value for money. I have not used other solicitors however WS were cheap and got the job done with no issues. FTB flat purchase leasehold.

House sale and purchase - they have been amazing. Rushaida is so efficient. Zero issues.

I moved from another solicitors because they were so slow. These guys are speedy.

Used them as they are on the Santander panel.

Pros: 1. Chethana and Dulaj very responsive and kind.
2. No unforeseen fees, paid what the initial quote was.
3. Completed in less than 4 months.

Cons: 1. you had to chase a lot for the work to be done and for the process to move forward. A lot of emails and phone calls.
2. Not responsive to the sellers solicitors, so I had to call and ask them to respond to the sellers solicitors emails.

In general, we were so thrilled to get the keys to our first home that we forgot the struggles of the journey.

Excellent service,

Amazing Thankyou so much Lewis Battersby
Not just for 1 case but for 2 fantastic 🙂
Thankyou so much 🫠

WRITTEN ON BEHALF OF JENNIE FOXALL LORD Mayflower Sanctuary.
Enrique Garcia is extremely professional. He assisted us with a complex matter relating to our Sanctuary. He offered good, sound advice and took the stress out of a difficult situation. Information was timely and concise. Enrique understood our issues and we couldn’t recommend him highly enough. We would certainly use again.

Lewis Battersby represented me, I was always informed and kept Upto date with the case throughout the investigation. I highly recommend using got me a nfa

Concise, accurate and professional advice which was needed greatly under the circumstances I found myself in.

I can highly recommend Wilford Smith and in particular Lewis Battersby whose advise at the time I will always be grateful for.

Used Wilford Smiths to complete my first will. Not a straightforward one at that. Lucy dealt with myself & my partner from the start.
I have to say Lucy was a dream to work with. Very relaxed tho attentive, she immediately grasped my personal situation & came up with a solution which was then executed.
Apart from being extremely professional, Lucy was lovely, very personable & explained everything so clearly that it was impossible not to understand.
Made what I thought was a mammoth problem into a baby elephant!
Although perhaps not the cheapest, certainly not expensive, we Would use again & recommend.

With my case i needed a swift response as my case was getting closer, i rang multiple solicitors and all said they would get back to me , they never did! Wilford smith rang me back the same day! When I arrived Lewis was my representative, he was really helpful all through the ordeal. He seemed to have all my needs at hand and took all the stress away leadinging Upto court , so a big thank you to Lewis and Wilford smith.

Very knowledgeable, patience in explaining the whys and how to do things.
Lisa and Lucy do a great job.
Thank you

Couldn’t recommend this Solicter’s enough. Lewis Battersby helped me with my case and kept me informed throughout. Thank you

Initial contact was ok. They got the job done but lacked immensely in communication it was quite difficult to reach any and when they eventually get back to you answers are vaguely explained. Towards completion I
had to pay so many extra fees its unreal. I found that very frustrating i won't use them again no.
