I used PLS for a new build development purchase. The developer pushed for a 6 week turnaround to completion, which I expected would be hard to meet. However, Billy and his team were immediately on top... See more

Aiman has been brilliant during our Conveyancing process, she was very fast at getting things sorted, the process would of been complete probably 2.5 months earlier if it wasn't for the management company!
Even when we were frustrated at this holdback Aiman showed she cared and wanted it just as much as we did which was great!
Many thanks PLS! Recommended for sure!

A rock start due to some technical issue but once resolved Josh and his team were fantastic in covering all my questions and wrapped up with time to spare before the exchange deadline for a new build.

Nick was very helpful and kept us updated on our new build purchase. Things changed here and there during the buying process with our current house so it wasnt straight forward at times and became quite stressful for us making decisions but Nick kept us in the loop throughout

I dealt with Keeley & her team and they were all so kind, approachable, professional & personable. They answer the phone!!!! If nothing else convinces you to use this wonderful firm - that alone should do it 🙌 They answered all my questions & I never felt like a nuisance or an inconvenience. And when things got stressful (that’s life - hey, it’s going to happen when you buy/sell houses) they were reassuring, proactive & keen to listen. I am grateful to the team and hope they know they’re truly appreciated for doing their job well 🙏

We recently consulted PLS Solicitors services to buy a house, Lucy Hubbard was very helpful from begining to end making the process very simple and stress free. I would definitely recommend PLS Solicitors to anyone

From start to finish, Lisa and the PLS team have been fantastic. We cannot thank you enough for all your hard work throughout this process. Lisa has kept us in the loop with every step and has been very accommodating and patient with us. We cannot believe how easy this process has been for us and this wouldn’t have happened without the help of you all.

Exceptional service from the Chloe Haddon team
We couldn't have asked for better. The Chloe Haddon team at PLS Solicitors made the entire property purchase process smooth and stress free. They were professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in getting us our property. From start to finish, they handled everything with care and expertise.

PLS successfully progressed our purchase to exchange, which we appreciate. However, our experience throughout the process was more stressful than it needed to be.
Emails were often answered late or not at all, and the tone of some telephone conversations with our case handler or other members of the team came across as abrupt and dismissive. We were also asked to provide the same documents twice, although they had already been sent by email.
Communication and progress improved noticeably only after the matter was escalated and the developer became involved. While we are pleased that contracts were eventually exchanged, we do not feel that clients should have to repeatedly chase for updates or escalate matters to receive timely attention.
After exchange, we received an email suggesting that we “might have been a little anxious”. We found this wording disappointing because our concerns arose from the lack of communication and the way the case was handled, rather than from the conveyancing process itself.
We hope this feedback is taken constructively and helps improve the experience for future clients.

We recently used PLS to help us both sell our current house and buy our second home. From start to finish both Jemma Plummer and Lydia Hull were both efficient and very effective in progressing our sale. Their communication was excellent and we felt both well informed and confident in the advice and decisions made by the firm. Overall, a fantastic experience that made house buying a lot less stressful. Thank you both.

I wasn’t happy with the Solicitor / the Team who handled my case. I barely get an answer when I wanted to clarify something with her team - first letter of her name is ‘C’ - her work ethics is incredibly below satisfactory. But I am glad it’s done cause it was a horrible experience for someone Asian like me for buying my first home here in the UK.

Our sale was extremely drawn out, through no fault of PLS I must add. Catherine Ross was tenacious in dealing, whilst remaining cheery and upbeat which was of great reassurance. We would definitely recommend her

Reply from PLS Solicitors
Great team to deal with….. had a few issues with sellers solicitors but the went above and beyond to resolve and chase when required. Would highly recommend Hannah and her team!

Reply from PLS Solicitors
As first-time buyers, we found the entire process overwhelming and, unfortunately, felt that we were not adequately supported throughout.
Our case handler would frequently promise to provide updates or communicate with us, but on numerous occasions this communication never materialised. We also felt that there was a lack of proactivity in managing our case, particularly when it came to chasing other parties within the chain and keeping the process moving forward. We raced through the first few stages to ensure that the process moved smoothly but then were waiting for months with concerns and frustrations building. Our case handler assured us that it was further up the chain who were holding us up however when we finally got to an exchange date, we couldn’t get hold of them for 2 days.
When we attempted to raise our concerns about our case handler, we were disappointed by the response. Rather than being offered support from a line manager or having our concerns properly addressed, we were told that we “didn’t need to complain because a manager wouldn’t be able to make the process go any quicker.” We found this response dismissive and felt that our concerns were not being taken seriously.
As first-time buyers, we were looking for reassurance, clear communication and proactive support throughout what was already a stressful and unfamiliar process. Unfortunately, this was not our experience, and we were left feeling frustrated, unsupported and unsure about what was happening at several points along the way.
