Holden & Co. represented the sellers of a house that I recently purchased. The sellers clearly hadn't set up a mail redirect, because I continued to receive post for them, but I remembered being advised to pass on any mail to their solicitors for redirection. When I took the letters to Holden's offices, I spoke (presumably) with one of the Partners or Solicitors over the intercom. As I was starting to explain, he interrupted me saying "No, that certainly would not be the agreement." When I tried to say that I had it in writing, he said "No, you're wrong", and hung up.

I've since found the relevant email which clearly states '.can I request that if you receive any mail for the previous owners, you forward it to their Solicitors for redirection.' Whilst I haven't experienced being a client of Holden & Co., this brief exchange with such a patronising, rude and supercilious man has shaped my opinion of a practice that I'll never use or recommend. It's also resulted in the previous homeowners failing to receive a significant amount of their mail.

Doesn't even deserve a star but unfortunately have to put at least one in order to review. If you want to lose then this is the place you want to go, otherwise you would be better off representing yourself, even if you manage to only do the basic amount of work needed, it'll be a hell of a lot more than Mr Holden bothers to do for you. Extremely rude and dismissive too: sometimes you get a very small choice of who can take on your case but given the opportunity I would take my chances and do it myself. look at other reviews and steer clear. I hope he gets called out on his poor level of service
