Meaby & Co Solicitors

I instructed Meaby & Co on the purchase of a property. The transaction collapsed because of their repeated failures. Initially Christabel was handling my file very well, she went on a leave and I was left wit negligence and incompetence. They did not tell me the seller expected exchange by a specific date or that the seller brought up withdrawing if we didn't exchange. They later confirmed I was ready to proceed, but no meaningful work was done on my file before the fee-earner went on 10 days’ leave without letting me know. They later claimed that "the sale has clearly fell through", even though I was still communicating with the seller. I was kept in the dark about multiple phone calls and an escalating situation At the critical moment, I was left without representation and even had to write directly to the seller myself. I later found that there were 2 ombudsmen complaint against them (and I filed a third)

Efficient service and especially really good communication - we really appreciated Jasmin’s advice and support throughout our house move process.

We felt super lucky to have Edward Chuck supporting us through the sale of our leasehold flat and our onward purchase. Always available to talk on the phone, even at his busiest, always quick and clear on email, and unfailingly friendly, thoughtful and professional. Grateful to Elizabeth too for her support behind the scenes!

Brian Craig was extremely efficient and responsive and was a pleasure to deal with during conveyance on a house which needed to be a relatively quick purchase
