Report
Just bought a house in Essex using Vanderpump and Sykes as our solicitors. From our first viewing of the house to completion took 12 weeks. We were first time buyers and so had no idea what we needed to do, but with Natalie Amir and her extremely efficient team, we were guided through the process with relatively little stress. They were friendly and approachable on the phone. I feel the costs were reasonable and would definitely recommend their services to friends and family.

Poor service. they drew up a contract for me a couple of years ago. I called recently to discuss the contract and they refuse to deal with it. not to mention the amount of calls it took to get through to someone, even though I was told 3 times I would get a call back.

Critical: Quality My Aunt passed away in April 2020. 18 months later, with the 3rd solicitor in the company, we are still waiting for the probate to be completed. My father, at 89, is one of the executors of the will and this lack of action is causing him great distress.

Excellent Service for Conveyancing We are moving for the first time in over 30 years so it is quite an undertaking for us. However, Bahareh Rahmani our Solicitor has been very efficient, very helpful and polite. We are extremely pleased with the service we have received from her and highly recommend her. She has made a potentially stressful life change into a very smooth endeavour. Thanks, The ReviewSolicitors team
