Sadly, staff leaving the business is out of our control but we did ensure another person was able to take over your case. We did bring the matter to a satisfactory conclusion.

This is the second time I dealt with…

This is the second time I dealt with this firm after my purchase fell through the first time. More recently my case handler was Vicky Sumner, she was very professional throughout. The convencing process was smooth, she was very attentive to details often spotting things and raising queries with the sellers solicitors. Vicky was always available to answer any questions often replying to my emails within minutes. I have never felt frustrated and she made the whole process seem really easy. I can't recommend Vicky highly enough, she is outstanding. Thank you to Vicky, Sana and all the team at Optimal solicitors, you are the best.

Both your lead solicitor Natalie McGuiness and her assistant Nafeesa Javed proved themselves to be always accessible on the telephone, when they generally resolved any issues in a professional and friendly manner.
My only issue was the pestering for information and personal details on the automated website which seemed to have a will of its own, still requiring i.d. proof even after the whole purchase had been completed!

Optimal Solicitors are trusty worthy

Optimal Solicitors are trusty worthy and actually do what they say at very competitive price. Specially the case handler ‘Vicky Sumner’ was amazing she made the whole sale process of my property seamless - she was brilliant with regular update, prompt response to emails, very organised and ease to talk to over the phone if needed - she is very professional.
I would be using Optimal Solicitors again - Thank you for the outstanding & professional service all round!

Neglect

Accident was over 1 year ago. There is 3 claim for 3 people from this accident. One person got check on the way with claim and second person is far in the forest. Advisors was changed plenty times, and didn't pass over the correct informations. Until today no-one requests even report from the dentist. And no-one can explain why it didn't happen, as well no-one can explain why this case not moving forward. All i hear is "this is strange ". The third person is a child and case is nearly getting till the end.

Good friendly service.
Automated online responses can be a little complex and repetitive - clarity on what's missing sometimes needed.

Hi Christopher, 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.

We note your comments regarding the automated responses, by this we suspect you are referring to the online case tracking portal which you had opted to use. Please note this is not our software/service and was included as part of the process suggested by your mortgage broker. Unfortunately, we cannot control the interface including the depth of the updates. The portal only allows us to update the main milestones involved in the transaction. We have provided this feedback to the provider of the portal.

Once again, thank you for your feedback and we hope to work with you again in the future. Many thanks

Amazing conveyancing

Amazing conveyancing for our recent house move. Someone always answers your questions in a quick manner. When the lead caseworker is off someone else answers, deals with any enquiries and showed good knowledge of the case. Phone calls are always answered or returned quickly. Very professional, personable and efficient.
