Reasonably good, did have an issue at one point someone else's documents. Would have given 4 star if not for this.

A long and confusing experience. Too many people involved and too long delays on sorting out problems instead of flagging them in the early days. Confusion over legal bill and survey. We were told we could pay this independently.Never got an invoice and money taken from our borrowed amount.

All went smoothly until the company solicitor failed to recognise my degree absolute.. insisting it was the nisi. I had several stressful weeks trying to get a copy of the absolute including having to ask my ex husband after ten years of no contact my last straw until embarrassingly he was the one who explained that I had the absolute. I then had to explain to yourselves word by word for you to agree. I found this a very stressful period.

Service efficient but I received peremptory phone calls and did not feel like a client at times.

Telephone: very patchy, when leaving please contact not always happened. Charges: 2 items for £99.00 seems expensive:- Shortfalls and Redemption. Overall experience was very stressful, would appreciate a conversation, please.

I was given no choice but to use GW Legal and I have to say that I would not have chosen them had I been given the choice, Furthermore, I would never choose them again in future. There were several factors that led to my comments above, none of which I can be bothered to go into now. Suffice to say, had it not been for my input and that of the admin assistant of my Financial Advisor, I would likely still be waiting for completion now.

The GW blurb states: * Fixed costs (no hidden surprises) * 24/7 access to your case and any milestones on our GW Account * Regular updates by phone and/or in writing from our friendly staff * The peace of mind that comes with choosing a solicitor with Conveyancing Association and The Law Society accreditation Buying or selling a property is regarded as 'one of the most stressful things we do' in life. The last thing you want then is to have the situation made even more taxing by an inexperienced conveyancer. But with 30 years in the conveyancing game, there aren't many things we haven't experienced and successfully overcome! This is recognised by our CQS accreditation and CA membership. Whether you are buying or selling a property, or even doing both, the team of solicitors and legal experts at GWlegal are here to make your conveyancing experience run smoothly and efficiently. Unfortunately the reality was quite different! - We could not access our 24/7 GW Purchase Account (despite raising this issue very early on) and my 24/7 GW Sale Account was never kept up to date - as good as useless. - We had numerous unanswered queries / questions - they just seemed to drift on - We received very few unprompted updates - only when we pushed - The only calls we received were at the end of the process when Kellie took over our files - to be fair Kellie worked really hard to help push things over the line The costs were in line with the original quotes but overall a very average service.

Overall good service need some improvements with getting hold of the person that is dealing with your case.

Good service, though I sometimes felt that nothing happened until they were pushed. There was one small problem to overcome regarding a new law which they seemed to think was my job to sort out, despite me paying them for their legal knowledge!

Very lax in communication, had to chase people to find out what was wanted and happening. Don't think I would recommend you.

Communication was very poor. I was encouraged to leave an email instead of calling the office and that a member of staff would reply in due course. Never received a reply and 5 days later I had to call the office which I should have done. Now left hanging not knowing when the money will be in our account?

GW Legal eventually completed our house purchase, but it seemed to take a lot of work from our end. Repeated emails went unanswered for weeks; when responses did come they were barely legible; simple instructions seemed to get lost in translation; colleagues in the same department gave us contradictory advice. The whole process gave me the impression they just didn't really care.
