Leighton was extremely responsive throughout our remortgage. We had a number of issues caused by third parties any issues or queries. The costs were also very competitive vs another quote we had.

On the whole really good
On the whole really good, i was a massive fan of the on-line portal for the uploading of documents but that just might be me.
Got sorted and completed on the right date. Thanks to the team at Optimal Solicitors and our mortgage advisor.

Hi Nicola, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are pleased that you were happy with the service provided by our conveyancing team. Many thanks
taking too long its been nearly 2 months
when I actually receive a copy of the title which btw was only a transfer of equity I will submit a review. As it is the process is taking a long time just to add my spouses name to the deeds so I'm not so happy no.
Still not happy still waiting for copy of title. Not got my name on title as yet as I have contacted land registry they are waiting for paperwork! You took my hard earned money and its taking so long so very unhappy with the service and would NOT recommend.

Hi Susan, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are disappointed to note you were not happy with the speed of the transaction. Unfortunately, the application is now with the land registry and we do not have control over how quickly that process will take. If you wish to discuss your concerns further, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Profit - oriented company.
I lost a certain amount of money irretrievably through Optimal Solicitors. Lack of proper concentration regarding my case ,how much it may cost,as lawyers see it .Every now and then, someone else would handle my case and lose the documents.
I lose time and money.

Our total sale and purchase only took 8 weeks from the initial viewing to completion so thanks to Wessley, Natalie, Nafeesa and Mandy for making this happen.
It was unfortunate however that finalising the completion process took much longer than hoped, which prevented us from picking up the keys until 3.30pm, which caused the removal team to be waiting for at least 3 hours before they could start to unload. Therefore the completion process in my opinion requires streamlining in order to expedite this process, particularly on a Friday.

Excellent from start to finish
Great working with Caroline and Nafeesa. I had a short window as I'd been transferred from another solicitor and she was very efficient in getting the deal done. Thank you so much for all your help. Definitely recommend their services.

Good communication and work hard
Have used several times - they work hard, respond in good time and are pretty hard to beat on price. We had Natalie M and she is lovely.

very unhappy
unfortunetly i am not happy about the servic i rcive this time .
Firstly the communication was very poor and difficult , when i was calling no on would pick up the phone .
No one would respond to mme emails as well even thou i did send a lot.
The was even one time a call booked for a specifick day and time and no on bothered to call on that day witch cosed me thouther to lous time as need a translator .
The second this is the amound of money for me compensation was pitfoul not speakeg abou tthe amound you tok form it .
Unfortunetly i will never recomend your company to anyon as the comunication is poor , the time it toooks to sort it out and then the compensation .

Dear Barbara
Thank you for taking the team to leave a review.
We are sorry you were not happy with the service. It would appear your not happy with the level of compensation received nor the amount we charged for dealing with the matter for you.
We refer you to our terms of engagement, including costs, which you signed and agreed at the outset. You therefore had full knowledge of the amount payable from your initial engagement with us.
if you do wish to discuss the outcome of your claim further, please do not hesitate to contact us.
