Brilliant Job for House Purchase Conveyancing

Stephen, Nadine and Paige handled our conveyancing brilliantly. I can't recommend them highly enough: professional, level-headed, thorough, speedy response, excellent communications - and believe me, we had a host of external issues to deal with which were smoothly handled by Glover Priest! If you are selling or buying a property, you will not go wrong with Stephen and the team, I really can't recommend them highly enough. Thanks again!

UNPROFESSIONAL SERVICE- DO NOT APPROACH

I had approached Glover priest Solictors to act for my mu on remortgage of 2 properties buy to let, as the price quoted was reasonable.
The conveyancer was hloe was chloe hobb. 1 week later after getting stared wen the offer had been sent out to her, I received a email saying she cannot continue due to the complecations as POA and my mothers residence and well as dispute going on with another solictor regarding other matter, leaving us in the hole. This professional condut of a solictor, having a duty of care to thir client, backfired, and has complecated mattersfor me to look elsewher which is just time wasting.
very unprofessional,not duty of care, unhelpful. Stay away from this firm. NOT RECOMMEDED

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review Nilendu, am I sorry to hear your experience wasn't as expected. After reviewing the case I can see you were not the instructing client and after our initial checks were completed it was discovered early in this transaction that we were unable to assist in this case due to certain discrepancies.

House sale…

The sale of a property has just fallen through after 16months of waiting A simple transfer of a piece of land that needed to be included in the sale that a third party paid for also using GP Tamworth office took nearly 2 years to complete. The level of service throughout has been worse than appalling. If I was told once that the “ post completion team” were dealing with my case , I was told a dozen times. To this day I don’t know who they are but they didn’t actually complete after nearly 2 years. Even at the end of my dealings with them, I told them I would be out of the country at the end of the week and was there anything I needed to sign so as not to delay anything. Guess what ? A week later as I am sitting in the airport departure lounge I get an e mail from GP telling me the attached form needs signing with a witnessed counter signature. Just one small example of the of sheer incompetence.

Ignored after being left without a home — 8 weeks on, no resolution, no accountability

Our experience with Glover Priest started well — communication seemed solid, and we felt reassured. But when it came to the most important part of the process — completion — we were completely let down.
This started off well, with us being told around lunch time that our funds had cleared and we were now just awaiting the completion. We had then phoned several times on "completion day" as time was passing by and couldn’t get a clear answer. Eventually, we spoke to Savannah, who advised us to go and sit in the estate agents’ office, advising that they can't leave without giving us the keys. We followed that advice, got to the estate agents only to be welcomed with confusion from them. We were left humiliated when the estate agents told us they had no record of completion taking place. It was only after they contacted the seller directly that we learned completion hadn’t happened due to delays on GloverPriest’s side. The seller had advised the estate agent that his solicitor had stayed on overtime as they were waiting for GloverPriest to get back.

We were given no warning, no explanation — and were left stranded and embarrassed.
As soon as we found out that we hadn’t completed, I emailed both Kellie and Charlotte as their phone lines were closed. Kellie later called me acknowledging the situation and stating this had never happened in her career. We were also told that we would be reimbursed for our expenses during this period as we had no food or toiletries that we would need. At the time, we took this at face value and trusted the promise.
In the meantime, we had no home. All of our belongings were on the removal van, and we had nowhere to stay. We were put up in a hotel for three nights with our three-month-old baby via GloverPriest. From an extremely exhausting day, we'd hoped our hotel stay would be pleasant, but it was far from it. The hotel required us to provide baby bedding — something we were not told when checking in or when the booking was made and couldn’t provide even if we had been told, as we had no idea where it was on the van. Our baby had to sleep in a pushchair carrycot for three nights. The stress and emotional impact of this can’t be overstated and was deeply distressing.
We also had to:
• Pay a large amount to keep our belongings on the removal van for three unnecessary nights
• Throw away all the food from our fridge/freezer
• Take additional time off work

We were assured that we’d be reimbursed and assumed this would be handled quickly. It’s now been 8 weeks, and despite escalating the matter, nothing is happening. Our complaint was escalated to Emma who was said to be reviewing the whole case and would get back to us within 8 weeks. However, despite multiple emails we have not once heard from her since the initial complaint opening. We are now being ignored. No follow-up. No reimbursement. No accountability.

We wouldn’t normally leave a public review — we’ve tried to deal with this privately and gave them more than enough time and opportunity to put things right. But we’ve been left out of pocket, emotionally drained, and treated as though none of this matters.

Great from start to finish

I've used Glover Priest a couple of times now for conveyancing. So much better than any other firm I've used previously. Fast, efficient, great communications, decent price. Everything you want, but rarely experience elsewhere.

Fantastic personal service

We were very impressed with Stephen Johnson and his team at Lichfield branch . Excellent service, kept us informed throughout the conveyancing. Very attentive to detail. Went to their office and were made to feel very welcome!
We have nothing negative to say which is very unusual! Highly recommend them!

Glover Priest in Lichfield were extremely helpful and professional, would highly recommend.

Glover Priest in Lichfield were recommended to me for the conveyancing work on a sale of my property and I'm so pleased that I decided to use them. Right from the start they were extremely helpful, easily contactable and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. They dealt with any issues that arose very quickly and we were able to complete in just 10 weeks. A special thanks goes to Nadine, Stephen and Paige who all provided an excellent service, would highly recommend.

Very disappointed!!!

Awful service and lack of communication with clients, I bought my first house on 6th September 2024 and I’m still trying to deal with them because who was dealing my case forgot to mention and fill all the documents to send to the estate management, after few months I found out by myself that glover priest hasn’t sent any communication to the management and that I should had pay about 700 pounds to update my name on the property, since December I called the office of Tamworth at least 50 times, been sending lots of emails to chase them to getting the case done, completely ignored!!!
The only few times I have reach out someone to speaking to, I only get lies and not calling back, I choose to make an official complain because of the stress and negligence I was getting from the studio but then after 2 months where they should give me any response , I’m still chasing them to get an answer, been calling for 3 days in a row and apparently the woman who was dealing the complain, never had time to send me an email or call me back, 7months of been completely ignored, saying lies of documents been sent and people who never called back, I’m stuck in this situation and I would need to spend other time dealing with legal ombudsman when they could easily apologise and get at least the documents sorted.

Unfortunately no one has still contacted me or been in touch , 9th may 2025
