Unfortunately, my experience with the buyer’s solicitors (Samuel & Co) was very disappointing. The sale of my shared ownership property was made far more stressful than it needed to be due to slow communication and enquiries being raised very late in the process, despite the sale having been progressing for some time.
I completely appreciate that shared ownership can be more complicated, but the lack of organisation, last-minute requests and the fact that the solicitor was only available two days a week made communication particularly difficult. I also found his manner on occasions to be unnecessarily rude and unhelpful, which added to an already stressful situation.
Thankfully, my own solicitors were fantastic and did everything they could to keep the sale moving. Overall, a very frustrating experience that I would not recommend.
I would not recommend these solicitors.
View this review on GoogleUseless and do not use this solicitor. I got arrested and they or him were the duty solicitor at my local police station. Got remanded into custody and never heard from him again. Sent me no paperwork relating to case, no correspondence, no nothing. My partner constantly emails and phoned but never any answer. Letters sent with no reply and after I explained to the Crown Court judge all this, she was not impressed with Samuel and Co. This man watched me get remanded to prison with my life on the line and the useless lazy c##t done absolutely nothing to help me like he was paid to do. Stay away from these people. He's probably back in Nigeria now laughing at us all..... Taking money and ripping off people who enlisted him for professional help. So if you want good quality legal help then this Mickey mouse outfit won't be any good. Keep well away from them and you will be fine. Total shambles.
View this review on GoogleWaste of my money and a complete fraud, requested Sam to represent me due to knowing him as a family solicitor he sent one of his lackeys who started blabbing on contents that had nothing to do with my case to the bail hearing (£200 easily taken) which i had to intervene before he could ruin everything. Only later to pay Sam for his representation at my deliberation, the judge had to stop him as he was unintelligible and was not understood, all in all the case went downhill when the decisions were being made he never turned up and when i called him he said ‘oh you didnt tell me to come’. So i had to plead for my own sentencing alone. A sham, fraud whatever you want to call it. I never got my money back.
View this review on GoogleDO NOT USE THIS FIRM! very unprofessional and unresponsive, and especially very rude and dismissive on the phone from someone claiming to be a partner in the firm. He just kept saying send an email, to which nobody replies. I suggest you look for another firm rather than take the risk with this one. I will never use them again.
View this review on GoogleVery unprofessional and rude. Refused to pay on time, caused a lot of trouble for our team. Ignores phone calls and emails. A cheap way of avoiding to pay. Never will use this company in my life.
