Professional and helpful throughout our purchase

PCS Legal handled the purchase of our new-build home in Margate. The team was professional and helpful throughout the process, kept us informed, and guided us through the paperwork clearly. Everything was handled efficiently through to completion, which made an important and potentially stressful process much easier. We are very happy with the service and would recommend PCS Legal.

We have used Brooke at PCS legal 3 times now for various conveyancing and she’s been fantastic every time. She has a high level of expertise, a real attention to detail and works around the clock to get things done and moving - really goes above and beyond, we’ve been so impressed and won’t use anyone else now. I can’t recommend PCS more highly

I didn't know companies were allowed to be this poor

My experience with PCS Legal was extremely poor. Emails were regularly ignored, and after completion they stopped responding altogether.

On the day of completion I was hit with over £3,000 in additional charges. I was also forced to pay service charges relating to the seller's ownership because PCS Legal failed to resolve the issue beforehand. After completion, they offered no help recovering the money.

I complained to their Client Care Team, who admitted the service was poor and offered £120.80 compensation. I accepted, provided my bank details, and they still haven't paid it.

After 34 years living in the UK, this has been the worst customer service I have personally experienced from any company. I would not recommend PCS Legal, as I would feel liable for increase in unnecessary mental trauma of the recipient.

Outstanding Service from Bucky and the Team ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had an excellent experience with PCS Legal from start to finish. Buying a home can be stressful, but Bucky and his team—Chloe, Jasmine, and Megan—made the whole process as smooth and straightforward as possible.

They were always professional, responsive, and incredibly efficient. Any questions we had were answered promptly, and they kept us updated throughout every stage of the transaction. Their communication was excellent, and we always felt informed and supported.

A huge thank you to Bucky, Chloe, Jasmine, and Megan for all your hard work in helping us complete the purchase of our new home. Your dedication, attention to detail, and willingness to help made a real difference, and we truly appreciated everything you did.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend PCS Legal to anyone looking for a reliable, efficient, and friendly conveyancing team. Thank you again for making our home-buying experience such a positive one!

Thanks Luke and the Wickford PCS SJF:LDN:143884Team

I would like to thank Luke and the Wickford PCS Legal Team for making the conveyancing process of selling a property so easy following the death of my sister. From the start, I told Luke I was not confident with IT and they really helped me go through the process without difficulty. The Team were always there to help and respond quickly and with great professionalism to all of my queries and we successfuly completed the sale last week. I would definltely recommend PCS.

This is the 2nd time I have used PCS Legal and would use their services again.
Their services I found great value for money and Christine's team helpful and polite, e.g. Kara.
Any important questions were answered promptly and clear explanations given. Sometimes were difficult to get hold of via telephone, and found emails the most effective way of communication.
I found Christine to be very knowledgeable and she kept communication clear and uncomplicated. Any issues raised were addressed quickly and accurately.
Thank you!

Excellent service from Chloe & Megan, completed our purchase in just 4 weeks. Highly recommended

We had an excellent experience with PCS Legal, particularly Chloe and Megan, who handled our purchase from start to finish. They kept us updated throughout the process, were always quick to respond to our emails and questions and were helpful whenever we needed clarification.

We were working to a very tight deadline because our house sale was completing within four weeks, and they managed to complete our purchase on the same day as our sale completion. Their communication, organisation and efficiency were always to the highest standard.

We really appreciated the effort they put in to keep everything on track and to ensure both our sale and purchase completed successfully. Thanks to Chloe and Megan's hard work, we are now first time owners of our new home, and we couldn't be more thankful.

We would happily recommend PCS Legal to anyone looking for a professional, responsive and reliable conveyancing team. Thank you again for all your hard work!
