Had these people deal with a very serious matter and I've never in my life seen more unprofessional people in all my life wouldn't reply to emails phone calls when I went to the office was treated like a kid they wouldn't speak to me so after 7 months of this I eventually ended going to a different place and they sorted it within 6 weeks please people do not use them totally unprofessional

Painfully slow and constantly delaying things. So bad the estate agent has said they won't deal with them again.

Really pleased with my outcome. I took some advice from Arya Roe and he was able to get me a really good outcome. I found his secretary very pleasant to speak to and they were always very helpful.

My experience is of Elizabeth Feeney. We have documented evidence of them adding MONTHS of delay to proceedings by refusing to answer emails, phonecalls and letters. They seem to have an endless series of unfortunate family events that require trips around the globe. We sent them a letter in the first week of December, their reply was dated 13th February. They could have be awaiting instruction, but simply hid from chasers. They are unprofessional.
