Stillwells Solicitors LLP: what do users think?
A: As a first time buyer, I’m sure you can imagine that the process of purchasing a property is quite daunting.I previously had issues with a solicitor that provided a urine poor service, which I felt would not be matched . . . I was wrong.After leaving them, I explained this to a con man of Stillwells who assured me that this is not how they do business and that customer care was paramount to the them.I was allocated the conveyancer and a solicitor for the lease extension ( Steven Wood). The lease extension solicitor was exceptional, he went above and beyond, providing me with information, advice and answering my queries in a timely manner.The conveyancer on the other hand has been the complete opposite. I have not spoken to the conveyancer in over 3 months. I therefore have resorted to emails ONLY as a means of communication as she was furious with me for having the nerve to ask for an update after not hearing from her.(she was continuously having holidays but the reason as to why will become clear later.)I informed them recently that the bank would be retracting the mortgage after 12/08/21. This did not prompt them to contact me or work any faster on my behalf.Obviously I do not want my time or money to be wasted simply because my solicitor is not interested in my business.I asked on three occasions (21.07.21 – 22.07.21 – 27.07.21), in worst case scenario if the process should fall through, what cost I would need to pay Stillwell.Considering I have paid a deposit and for my searches, I am yet to get a response.Why they were being so elusive is beyond me. The solicitor who reassured me this would not happen no longer responds to my emails.When I called the con man who sold the service from my office line, he returned the call and when he recognised my voice remained silent on the other line. I hung up and called back and he diverted me. This is the service that I am paying for.I found out my conveyancer was leaving the business so my contract was sped up and completed in 10 days after 3 months of being ignored.On 04/10/2021 I received an email that Stillwells had ceased trading. It would be interesting to know whether they new about this before selling the service. in March.I am proposing that your matter be transferred to my new firm. My aim is to make this process as straightforward and uncomplicated as possible and look forward to continue working with you.I can confirm that my new firm will honour our existing arrangement in relation to the costs of carrying out the transaction on your behalf. Any money we hold for you will be transferred to Nexa without you having to do anything.I will be working from Nexa Law’s London office.Responsibility for your workI shall be the person dealing with your transaction. I am a Solicitor.Progressing your matterI will continue to provide you with relevant updates as your transaction progresses. The changeover will be seamless.What do I need you to do?If you are happy for your file to be transferred to Nexa Law Solicitors (and therefore happy for me to continue handling your matter) please email me back to say ‘go ahead’ or words to that effect.However, if you would prefer to seek alternative representation, please do let me know.I was then called on Tuesday saying that they will no longer represent me. . . . Why?
Rory Aram: Hanah picked up our file quite late on and did a brilliant job making sure we completed on our house before the deadline. We found her to be very efficient and easy to deal with and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to others or using again. Thanks again.
Hannah Rees: My mother in law has received nearly the identical poor service from Stillwell Solicitors LLP as Brian. She started the process of purchasing a property in April and has still not completed due to the sheer lack of competency from Georgia and the team.Emails and calls ignored. When communication has been made, they’ve been dishonest with what action has been taken.Extremely disappointed is an understatement.I would strongly recommend you stay well clear of this company if you don’t want to lose out on your dream home!
William Mollett: Emails not returned. Calls not returned. Multiply that by 5. Enough said.
Brian Gohery: Having been involved with & reliant on Stillwells Solicitors LLP for 4 months with little to no communication via phone or email, I would recommend you definitely look elsewhere & avoid all the unnecessary delays, hassle & potential chain collapse.Stillwells & in particular Georgia Ferguson, have caused delays to our chain beyond what the other conveyancers, estate agents, buyers & sellers involved can comprehend. I understand conveyancers are obviously dependent on others to provide the information required, but Stillwells have consistently delayed the process through an enormous & almost total lack of communication. Emails and telephone calls from other conveyancers, estates agents & clients simply go unanswered.Whilst not a straightforward process, it is by no means complicated with communication being almost non-existent, massively adding to the frustration of all those involved. Having read the previous reviews, it's hard to comprehend how or why things have become so bad, so quickly.I understand the implications of Covid & the Stamp Duty Holiday had on the industry, but Stillwells have been pinpointed by all involved as the simple reason matters have not progressed week on week, month on month. If it's not their fault, there's no communication as to what is delaying the process & apparently no steps taken to resolve any delays.From my experience, & the experience of others in the chain, other conveyancers get the job done far more easily & efficiently & importantly, actually respond to emails & telephone calls with those involved up and down the chain.Fingers crossed matters improve, but definitely exercise caution when considering Stillwells Solicitors LLP.
Matthew Webber: This is the third house acquisition that Hanah and her team at Stillwells have worked on for us over the last seven years and as always the service has been absolutely first class!Hanah and the Team are extremely professional, working tirelessly to cover every angle, communicating consistently throughout.I cannot recommend Hanah and the Team enough!!
Philip Waite: The service we received from Georgia was exceptional. We were kept informed at all stages of our purchase. When required Georgia was persistent in Gaining all the information that was required, even to the point of working late at home.E-Mail response was very prompt with all the relevant documentation attached for your information and records.The personal touch was valued and I feel an important part of the service we received.I would highly recommend Stillwells especially if all the staff treated their clients the way we were treated.
Teri Jeynes: Have used Stillwells for years, initially referred business to them through a previous employer and the only solicitor whom would exchange a house sale out of hours! Excellent!On my own personal matters excellent solicitors, fantastic that you can just ask a question and not be worried about sneaky hidden charges. lovely staff and nothing is too much trouble. Highly professional and if it is something they might not be able to deal with always happy to recommend. Would highly recommend.
Trevor Downward: Georgia Fergusson of Stillwells Solicitors LLP was recommended to us for our purchase of a property in Southampton. Georgia ticks all of the above boxes, she comes across as knowledgeable, extremely competent, quick to respond and highly efficient.We engaged Georgia at the end of 2020 and despite having to deal with many queries, in part due to incorrect information being supplied, persevered and delivered for us timeously. The deal was done over the Festive Season and during the various lockdowns that were implemented.Great stuff Georgia, you're an Absolute Star!
Dan Cunnington: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueStillwells were excellent throughout my house purchase, very thorough and will definitely use again in the future. Highly recommend.
Tara Power: This was the third time we bought a house and was cautious initially after quite negative experiences with previous house sales and purchases. We choose Stillwells LP due to the reviews online and it was the best decision we made in this whole process.Georgia Fergusson and Holly Brookes have been fantastic throughout the whole process. We really could not ask for more. We started the legal work on a sale and purchase towards the end of 2020, with a concern of not completing by the 31 March stamp Duty deadline. In the end the whole process just took around 12 weeks and this included the Christmas holidays and through lockdown. We were always left feeling very confident that any queries we had, emails were responded almost straight away. Communication is so important through conveyancing and not once did we feel like we didn't know what was going on with both our sale and purchase.If we were ever to move again, then we would always choose Stillwells LP and Georgia as our solicitor. Thank you so much for the fantastic service you have provided to us. Tara and Mike.
Paul D: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,ResponsivenessGeorgia and her assistant Holly provided a first class service throughout our property purchase and sale. Certainly the most stress-free conveyancing experience we have had, Georgia and her team are professional, friendly, responsive and above all extremely competent. Highly recommended.
Andy Young: We cannot recommend Solicitor Georgia Fergusson and Stillwells Law highly enough when it comes to moving home! The conveyancing process was incredibly straight forward and efficient from start to finish. All communication was clear and concise with any questions answered immediately. Georgia along with her colleague Holly made our lives that bit simpler during a stressful time. We can’t thank you enough!
Adam King: Hanah Wright has been absolutely fantastic with both our sale and ongoing purchase. In the middle of what must be one of the busiest housing markets we have faced, we were lucky enough to be recommended Hanah by a friend. We have had more than our fair share of hurdles and she has always been there to help - her responsiveness and the genuine feeling she has always been acting in our best interests has put others in the chain to shame. Thank you so much.
Pranita Rajo: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,ResponsivenessA huge thank you to Georgia who helped us buy and sell! She was very responsive, helpful and professional. I’ll be recommending her services to friends and family. We’re now in our new place and very happy! Thank you!
Penny B: Despite my leasehold property being on the market for 2 years and unfortunately 2 offers falling through (due to buyers not having mortgages or funds in place) I have been extremely pleased with the service I received from Stillwells. From the outset Georgia and her assistants Holly and Emma have been very helpful and supportive, as I was unsure of the whole selling process, especially as it is leasehold. They kept me updated and answered all my queries promptly. When I made the decision to withdraw from the market and not sell, Georgia and her team were understanding and concluded everything with no further cost to me. I was very appreciative of this. The reason why I chose Stillwells in the first place is because I read on their website that they have members with experience in leasehold properties. I will certainly recommend Stillwells.
ehsan afkhami: Very poor experience with Stillwells. It's been +9 months and our lease agreement still isn't finished, this is a process that takes 1-2months on avg. We would still be ok with this if they responded with expected timelines, but for the past month they have not replied to any of our emails.Seems like they don't care about the clients once they receive the money.
Ian McIsaac: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueMark Coupland of Stillwell's dealt with my lease extension, all remotely by email and post, on a fixed fee basis - absolutely easy and hassle free. I would not hesitate to recommend their service.
agata kowalewska: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueWhat a great firm! I have used their conveyancing services twice and very happy with the service. So responsive and great quality. Would strongly recommend them, especially Georgia at Stillwells. Thank you so much, Georgia!
Samuel Dedman: From start to finish Georgia and the team at Stillwells have been fantastic. Responsive and diligent, they have provided fantastic support and guidance throughout our purchase. This is all the more impressive given that COVID-19 and lockdown took place right in the middle of the process, but at no point did their standards drop.I would not hesitate to recommend Georgia, her team and the wider firm. Thanks again for everything!
Ilayda Bezek: Me and my partner can’t thank Georgia at Stillwells enough ! She was absolutely perfect throughout, when I went to pick up the keys from the agency , the lady there from the legal team said “just before you go , I wanted to let you know that your solicitor was absolutely amazing” .Georgia was so efficient, professional and soooo lovely that I can’t wait to have her again for our third house and that would be the third time us choosing stillwells ! You are in safe and good hands with Georgia she is very responsive and sticks to her word!Thank you very very much Georgia you are definitely a BIG CREDIT to the company

Abels Solicitors & Commissioners: what do users think?
Atta Asamoah JNR: I had a great service from Abels Solicitors and Mr Peter H has being very helpful and brief me on all matters I don't understand. Very grateful for you service and help.
Lily Mulzo: Just had some wonderful advice from Katie Ball. Called them without notice and she was very prompt and had lots of helpful information ready with no notification beforehand. Absolutely outstanding service.Thank you Abels
mark willshire: I've just had a free initial appointment with one of the family law team- Katie Ball- and I would just like you to extend my thanks to her.I found her to be professional, informative and, crucially, attentive. Her advice on how to proceed was excellent, detailed and non biased. If I was proceeding with solicitor representation in my case, the impact of the above factors would likely have seen me switch representation to Abel's and in particular to Katie.I wasn't rushed, was allowed to speak and ask questions and there was no product pushing- i.e. a push by Katie to have Abel represent me.Very impressive given it was a free appointment.
troy cannon: If i could give this no stars i would.Booked an appointment a week ago for free initial consultation and was told there was no conflict of interest, lo and behold turn up today and the incompetent firm hadn't even be bothered to check properly! Was told they couldnt help as the other party had already had free legal advice! Utterly disgusting service, never have i seen such a show of total and utter incompetence, lack of due diligence and general waste of time! If you are looking for a law firm DO NOT USE this one! Absolutle shambles of a so called firm!
Sophie Grant: Hilary Marshall was an absolute star throughout our whole move. She did everything she was told and more. She was lovely to speak to and had a lovely manor about herself. Very hard working lady and will continue to use her in the future.
Naina Naker: Not helpful. Wasn't able to sort get access to my deceased mother's birth certificate. As I am no longer in contact with my older brother due to a safety concern as he is physically and verbally aggressive towards me. Police sign posted me to solicitors to resolve and I also have been in touch with victim support. Despite this the female solicitor was very cold over the phone and didn't want to help.
Kevin Stansfield: Abels were the solicitor for my landlord in surrendering a leasefrom finding a new tenant to completion took 5 months. Both parties were ready to proceed in 2 months, but the delays in commination from solicitor to landlord to tenant were so slow at time non existent. I lost £6k in rent i should not have had to pay as a result of their poor service. If you want a responsive solicitor who communicates then I suggest you look elsewhere.
Carla Roberts: Really fantastic!
Scott K: So far, so good. They seem to have a quick turn around and good communication. Not had to chase them, considering I'm still waiting for return calls from other solicitors! Would recommend.
Colin Rose: Brilliant service and reasonably priced, would definitely recommend.
Nicola Vaughan: They were able to sign and witness a statutory declaration on the same day I phoned - great helpful service!
Naz Singh: Excellent service
Courtnall Machanick: Bravo! I highly reccomend Mr. Humphry's and his firm. They are approachable and helpful.
Maps Reviewer: Peter Humphris is an exemplar of human decency and excellence in the legal profession. Would be hard pressed to find such a good listener as him to genuinely understand the situation at hand, God bless.
Matt “Jon”: Critical:ProfessionalismThe firm submitted false information to court.....I have requested the name of the person who took ownership of the statement, which was presented to a Judge.....I will be taking the issues further to governing body. First impressions are damaging.
R Hm (Elle): Hilary Marshall was quick and super efficient with the conveyancing on my new home. Highly professional and personable too.
Claire Duboiset: Critical:Professionalism
Andrew Smith: Critical:ResponsivenessDon't return calls or respond to email enquiries. One star is a star too many.
Francisco Fraga: Legal aid solicitors... helpful and friendly
Sam Luxton: Reinforced my belief that most solicitors are just out to make as much money out of you in any way possible
Michel Mattouk: Reliable solicitors
