Had a great service from start to finish.
Always explained what and why and where there are in the process.
Manraj and his team was very pleasant and efficient once the task was started.
I did find their online system to be good and the lack of posting or got to office A Or B very good. Just a simple upload on a secure server gave me confidence on not everything being lost in the email thread

Update.: had to downgrade due to company forgetting to add my help to buy and now having to process though there complaints procedure

Highly recommend, excellent service

Andrew Groves and his team provided exceptional service throughout our home-buying journey. They were highly professional, efficient, and maintained excellent communication. They guided us through each step, were always available to address our questions, and prioritized our comfort, even if it required extensive back-and-forth discussions. Their dedication to our best interests was evident, and we felt confident entrusting them with the process. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone navigating the house-buying process.

Sabia is an asset to this company.

Sabia is an excellent conveyancer. She was efficient, had all the searches, etc. completed in good time & was very patient & tenacious when dealing with our buyers' solicitors whose efficiency was sadly less than optimal. She's a good communicator & I feel that she is an asset to Gough Thorne.

Recommend by the developers...

We used Gough Thorne LLP based on the recommendation from the developers. We had a very short time to complete and as they stated that they worked closely with the developers and knew the development well we decided that they would be best suited to allow us to complete on time. Which they did do.

However, I would have expected them to have a better idea of the costs involved in such a transaction having done so many with the same developer and development. The final bill was far different from our initial quote.

Also, on the day of completion and on our way to collect the keys I received an urgent email to say that they had made a mistake, we still owed them money and can't complete until it has been paid. I called and was told the same thing. I was confused as we had made a bank transfer based on the invoice figures they sent to us. I was very stressed and decided just to make the payment anyway as to avoid any delays or complications.

A few days later I decided to send them an email querying the extra charges as it didn't make sense. They have since refunded the extra charges that we paid but failed to offer any explanation or apology.

I did find their online system to be good and their staff were friendly when I spoke to them. But based on my experience I would not recommend Gough Thorne as there quote was not accurate and we got charged incorrectly and would not have received a refund had we not queried it.

Reply from Gough Thorne LLP

Dear Patrick

Thank you very much for leaving your review.

Unfortunately we were unable to recognise your transaction, so I would be grateful if you would please email me at sandi.sidhu@goughthorne.com so I am able to investigate the issues you have raised and help train the fee earner involved to prevent these mistakes from happening again. At Gough Thorne we strive to the highest standards, hence the recommendation from your developer. I am therefore shocked to have received your comments, but also pleased it was rectified quickly.

I apologise for the inconvenience and stress caused.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Kind regards

Sandi

Amazing customer experience from Karolina Grabska

I have enjoyed working with Karolina from Jennifer's Team and feel very lucky.

Of the 3 solicitors involved in the transaction, Karolina was by far the most competent, constantly flagging other's mistakes, correcting and keeping everyone in the loop.

She was able to push and deliver before Christmas, even tho everyone else was expecting the contract to be exchanged in January.

We are grateful for her work and wish her all the best in the future.

Thank you for your hard work!

I have and will recommend Gough to anyone needing conveyancing services.
Andrew's team has been fantastic to work with and Jagpal, who managed my transaction was particularly diligent.
Throughout the transaction, which took around nine months due to issues outside of our control, he has been professional, sympathetic and very understanding. All communication was returned promptly and he listened to all requests before explaining the options.
Even when Jagpal was on holiday, all queries were dealt with efficiently by another member of the team and I have full confidence in them all.
I will definitely be using Gough Thorne again in the future.
Thank you all.

Bought and Sold our House

We have moved three times in the last 20 years, and our previous experiences with solicitors were frustrating due to delays and poor communication. This time, however, our experience with Manraj Kanwal and Zain’s team at Gough Thorne Solicitors was overwhelmingly positive. They were efficient and kept us updated on every step of the process. We couldn't have asked for better service!

5*- Highly recommend!

We brought and sold our house through Gough Thorne. They have been absolutely brilliant throughout. Our main contact was Manisha who is part of Zains team. She was extremely informative and helpful throughout the transaction, easy to get hold of and kept us in the loop. Would definitely use again and recommend to our friends and family.
