McFadden Perry Solicitors

Not yet ...they are still working on case

Uncommunicative, unhelpful, inefficient and generally uninterested once we signed up. Before that they appeared helpful and pleasant so what a nasty surprise we got. Not answering emails, when pressed answering in one or if lucky up to three words. On the telephone we appeared to be a nuisance. If we had a question relating to the conveyancing we were told to ask the estate agent or the vendor! How could these people know the answers as to how McFadden Perry were progressing with our purchase? In total they made our buying process a nightmare for us. We exchanged contracts on the 3rd of July and got our deeds today 11 February, 7 months of pressing for closure! I can now finally rate them as I need have no further dealings with them. I rate them as diabolical!

You get what you pay for with this firm - That is, a cheap price and a cheap service. We were first time buyers and the vendor was selling and moving into rented accommodation so not exactly a chain to hold up the process. Probably the least complex purchase you could hope for. From sale agreed to completion the entire process took 12weeks! No doubt the firm will blame the vendors solicitors but I spent weeks harassing them to push the other solicitor and all I got was frustration and brush offs. Communication was very poor and felt powerless to be able to do anything. I got my final completion date only days before we got the keys so again more frustration when trying to organise a house move around this. The comments I read on the website made the firm sound like a reputable company and have provided great value for service for previous customers but knowing what I know now I would NOT have used them and would gladly pay the extra £400 quoted by other solicitors.

I bought a flat in May 2013 and received the deeds in December 2014. The time taken to deal with this purchase was much too long and I was not kept informed. I decided to have the deeds myself rather than leave them with the solicitors, which I would rather not do, but I am worried that the poor service might continue.

Excellent service

So far I am satisfied with their service

Linda McFadden and Gillian Bullar are a really good professionals, very helpful. Very friendly. Instant replies to all emails, calls and post. Highly recommended and very reasonable price.

Very efficient and very reasonable price for the work carried out.

I live just over 130 mile round trip from McFaddenPerry, and chose them purely on price. I had dozens of local solicitors locally I could have used but in comparison to cost, McFaddenPerry won hands down. I didn't have to visit the office (although the option was there) they responded promptly to telephone calls and emails, and all documents were posted / signed & returned. they were very supportive on move day, when I received a telephone call at 09:15 to advise the money transfer had been completed successfully and I should expect the keys to be released. Even when the vendor had not vacated the property, they still remained in contact throughout advising what our next steps were to take. Although we have just moved; I'll definitely be going back to McFadden Perry! Today's technology has provided opportunities that otherwise we would simply have to give local solicitors "The going rate"; McFadden Perry breaks this myth providing a 1st class service for a really low fixed price that's well worth the money!
