Alfred Newton Solicitors - Romiley Reviews 30

We recently used Alfred Newton for our move. Both the sale of our property and the purchase of our new property. We used Holly Penman at their Romiley branch.

While our initial contact with them was pleasant we found the process overly tiring and stressful. We had to continually chase them for answers to questions that we had raised. We often found that there was delay in raising these questions with our vendors

The communication with Holly wasn’t great. We found Helen to be a bit rude and direct. But Holly herself was very pleasent to deal with.

Ultimately the process was delayed because of an oversight on our application with my wife’s middle names. The mortgage lender was very surprised that this wasn’t picked up by the solicitors earlier.

Also on the day of exchange it was very difficult to contact Holly, often on an 90 mins lunch break. Exchange happened late Friday afternoon, completion the following Monday. There was no confirmation email or conversation with Holly when the exchange happened. We felt very much they didn’t want to deal with us personally

The completion day ran very smoothly.

We also found out 2 months after we moved that they had failed to pay us £100 which was agreed by our buyers for the purchase of some wardrobes.

Overall well felt Alfred Newton could have done better. We would not recommend and would not use again

Great service very kind easy to speak to 5* from me

I went to my local solicitors in the Romiley branch of alfred newton's, and i found it a very stress free experience, buying my new property, they did a very thorough job looking into all my concerns about the property, i would definitely recommend there services to anybody, thanking you very much for all your dues diligence

Fantastic solicitors ! I and family members have dealt with them for several different reasons over the last 30 yrs. Highly recommend for any legal matters that you may need help with.

Thank you to Victoria, Helen and all of the team at the Romiley office. I am very happy with your services.

Very helpful, professional, friendly and thorough service.

I can’t thank Alfred Newton Solicitors (Romiley office) enough for all their help with our house move. What should have been a straightforward process turned into a long and complicated journey lasting nearly two years, but the team was fantastic throughout. They were patient, supportive, and always kept us updated, no matter how many twists and turns came along. Their professionalism and dedication made a stressful situation so much easier to handle.

Helpful staff, smooth processes, and so responsive and kind (especially when the seller began to apply pressure to speed things up). Thank you so very much, we love the new house!

Thank you to Holly, Helen & all of the team at the Romiley office. They made our home buying experience stress-free. They communicated everything with us in a timely manner. We are greatly appreciative of all their hard work!

The communication throughout was excellent. Our queries always had replies within 24-48 hours of asking. Neave always did her best best to help with any enquirie, Helen explained things in an appropriate way helping our understanding. Holly was very thorough with her work, all reports were clear and concise. All of which made the experience (all-be-it long in our circumstance, not alfred newtons fault) very easy and comfortable.

Would recommend Alfred Newton and use them again for legal assistance.

They quickly sorted a complex problem for me as executor of a will after the previous solicitor had taken 7 years and failed. I then decided to rewrite my own Will a couple of years later because of that experience and once again the professionalism was excellent as well as being very understanding of what I wanted.

The team at the Alfred Newton Solicitors from the Romiley branch were fantastic and extremely helpful in supporting us through purchasing our first home together. They responded to our questions and requests quickly and ensured that our sale went through in the time period that we wanted. We are very grateful to them for their excellent support throughout and we would highly recommend them to others!

Holly Penman and the staff at Romiley have been so helpful and efficient with the sale of the property. I can't thank them enough for their excellent service.

The best solicitors about we have dealt with Holly and the Romiley office for many years and wouldn’t use anybody else they got our sale and purchase done in 7 weeks at there busiest time due the stamp duty change.

Thanks so much for completing our house sale.
The process was seamless and always kept up to date.

Holly, Helen and the team at the Romiley office guided us through a long process in a patient, informative and thoroughly professional manner. Always friendly and available when called on. Can't recommend them highly enough and will not hesitate to use their services again.

Professional service. Special thanks to Holly, who has been very supportive throughout the entire process, ready to answer any questions or address any concerns. Highly recommended!

I have found Alfred Newton to be professional, competitive and highly accommodating. In particular, Holly Penman at the Romiley office has acted for me on the sale of two shops a flat and most recently a detached house. Holly has been friendly, easy to talk to, proactive and very professional. She has successfully resolved all issues and has provided support and regular progress updates.

Had a very quick and straight forward process selling my property with Holly in the Romiley office. From start to completion took around 10 weeks and communication throughout was great.

Probate and house sale carried out with complete professionalism in a timely manner considering constraints of HMRC.
Thanks to Joanna, Holly and Helen.
