Hek Jones have been amazing

Hek Jones have been amazing through the whole process of buying our first home. We couldn’t have done it without Paigton and Elise. They have remained professional even with the amount of pressure that has been put on us and the chain.

We couldn’t thank them enough

Helpful and professional

Laura and Steph were extremely helpful in getting our house purchase over the line after the collapse of our previous solicitors. They were always available to answer questions and got the job done quickly and professionally in difficult circumstances. Would definitely recommend them to others.

Can't recommend enough

Can't recommend enough. Julia ensured the whole process felt like something you could leave in the background and get on with the quagmire of all the other logistics. Who new conveyancing on my behalf could come with a few giggles at attached?

Excellent service from Laura Flook of HEK Jones

My wife and I were delighted with the service we received from Laura Flook throughout a very difficult house move. She was always helpful, knowledgeable and very professional. A pleasure to work with and when we needed to push for early completion she came up trumps.
Would definitely recommend.

We sold our house through YOPA and we…

We sold our house through YOPA and we had to use Hek Jones as part of our contract. We were a bit unsure about this as we are in Newcastle Upon Tyne and Hek Jones is based in Cardiff. However, we were very happy with the service we were provided by Helene. She was efficient and very helpful as well as personable. She was excellent at communicating and dealing with issues, especially when we were very stressed!
Thank you again Helene. Max and Andy x

Excellent Service with Great Communication

Very good experience dealing with this firm. Our solicitor was Holly Bowen and she was very efficient in her job… despite it being a long process through no fault of her own, we had contact at least once a week with an update. No questions went unanswered and communication was excellent, exactly what you need through a lengthy and stressful time! Would highly recommend Hek Jones Solicitors, and more so Holly Bowen herself. Thank you again for all your hard work, you really did make a stressful time a lot better for us.

More than worst experience

Recently I have bought a 3 bedroom house in East London. The exchange was done within 5 weeks and after 1 week was the completion with another Solicitor or Conveyancer.

My experience with Hek Jones Solicitors was more than worst. I started to buy a flat in South London and Countrywide Home Conveyancing/Hek Jones Solicitors on 15 August 2022. The Solicitor Mr PL discovered my mortgage offer after 26 days and started the process/requested for a search after that. Ineffective or lazy or incompetent, don't know what was the cause. After months of waiting and pain and also corresponding with the Estate Agents as well, the matter was not progressing. More than after 5 months the Seller pulled out from the process in January 2023. In February 2023, the Legal Assistant SW of Hek Jones Solicitors emailed me, "We note that there is a balance of £23.20 to be returned to you.
So that our accounts department can process the funds transfer, please provide us with a recent bank statement (or banking app screenshot)." After replying with the bank statement (asked for the calculation as well) no reply or was not returned the balance. They know if they ignore our emails we have nothing to do, cause we are sufferers. Please go with these Solicitors if you want to be a victim or sufferer.

Reply from Hek Jones Solicitors

Good afternoon,

We note from the file that while, unfortunately, your matter fell through (the seller’s lawyers informed us that the seller had a “change of circumstances”) your transaction encountered a number of issues:
1) the receipt of the seller’s contract pack (which took approximately 2.5 months), and;
2) the receipt of the leasehold management pack (which took approximately 5 months).
On review of the leasehold management pack (which we reviewed the same day it was received), it revealed information that required several points to be addressed by the seller’s lawyers, including more information regarding the proposed future works to the building (and the likely costs) and a “deed of variation” was needed to amend the lease because we identified that the lease was defective.

We note from our file and can confirm that you were kept updated regularly throughout this transaction.

We returned the balance of the searches to you as requested and as is usual.

We hope that you can appreciate that the delay was not in any way caused by us.

We wish you all the very best,

Hek Jones
