"The majority of the communication was sent using their general email address and down the line a different solicitor picked up the case."
"We often had to resend documents multiple times due to errors."
"I would need hours to list all the things that they did (or didn't do), but I don't have that time."
"Time after time, documents had entirely wrong details."
"The level of incompetence was truly beyond belief especially given this was a very simple transaction with no chain."
Communication and Responsiveness
Pros:
"Ria's legal knowledge was second to none, she communicated regularly, was very prompt with replies to questions."
"Everything was done with due diligence and no detail was missed - would recommend."
"Nitesh Rewatkar was incredibly efficient throughout the whole process, responded same day to all my emails and enquiries."
"Whenever I had questions or concerns, she would be there to provide guidance and support."
"Solid knowledge and experience which he has shared to help us comprehend the milestones in the process. 10/10!"
"My solicitor during the sale and purchase of my property was highly professional and knowledgeable, making the process smooth and successful."
"Ria was always really helpful, incredibly responsive and immediately on hand to take calls and respond to queries."
"Nitesh Rewatkar was really helpful, on hand to answer any queries that arised throughout the process."
Cons:
"Phone calls ignored. Emails ignored. Requests for clarity ignored or responded to with equal levels of incomprehensible jargon garbage."
"When we were finally contacted by our solicitor, communication continued to be extremely poor."
"Their communication is shocking beyond belief. Essentially, we picked up a chain that was ready to go & all Spencer L had to do was proceed with the formalities."
"Far too often, emails went completely unanswered."
"Not once was I able to actually talk to my solicitor over the phone."
"Our experience with Spencer Lockwood has been frustrating and disappointing."
"Spencer Lockwood Conveyancing, and in particular Daniel Blake, made what it seemed impossible happen!"
"Trying to get in contact with them was a disaster, they would never reply to an email without 2 or 3 phone call chasing them."
