Simpson Millar - Leeds Reviews 234

As soon as my case was taken by Nicola Roberts she kept me updated and had my case progressing quickly. Could not thank her enough. She kept me informed ans was pleasant to deal with during a stressful case.

I would like to thank Simpson Millar and in particular Paul Stevens. I had severe food poisoning at an all inclusive resort in Mexico nearly 5 years ago. The well known tour operator procrastinated for all that time, hoping we would give up. Paul persevered with the claim and put a lot of effort and hard work into getting us compensation which finally came through this month. Thanks Paul, job well done.

I had an employment issue that I needed help with. I needed someone with professionalism and expertise. I had a solicitor assigned to me, his name was Balal Qaser. This man took me through all of the steps to resolve this problem. He kept me in the loop all the way and always answered my emails,wether they were relevant or not. He was very respectful and professional in his manner and got me a good result. He is a credit to his employers and I would recommend his service's to anyone that has employment issues. Thanks Balal,top man. A Smith.

What a badly organised conveyancing department. The service we received was diabolical.
We wanted a simple conveyancing, no chain, no complications.
We were passed between 6 conveyancers over 3 months before finally getting someone who knew what they were doing.
For weeks we were fobbed off and ignored. Staff were going to ring back but never did. We spent 2 days of our holiday trying to talk to someone/anyone. The poor people on reception must have been totally bombarded, I am sure we weren’t the only ones.
Our saving grace came in the form of Neelam Shah who went back to the beginning and sorted out all the mess the others had left.
We were so grateful to her as we were getting so tight on time and did not have time to appoint an alternative conveyancer.
If you do have need to use this company, ask for Neelam Shah

Fabulous service from Simpson Millar especially Simon Lomax. Always, available to answer any queries and everything about the process was explained clearly and in a way we could understand. Of course, the best outcome was that we won the claim!!

Simpson Millar handled a Protective Payment Award Claim for me after I was made redundant. They handled the claim swiftly and kept me in formed of everything that was happening. The claim was concluded within 12 months and I received more than I expected to. Nicola Roberts was fantastic and I would highly recommend her for these claims.

Nicola was very helpful all the way through, this has been a very easy process. I’ve worked in claims before and know how difficult it can be. Would 100% recommend I did very little work and was rewarded £2100. Nicola has been great from start to finish, thank you!

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! This company is the worst company that I've ever dealt with... This company will cause you stress and other mental health issues. Their customer service is non existent, they do not answer telephone calls, they do not respond to emails. Please scroll down the list and read other people's reviews... Do yourself a favour and look elsewhere if you want a solicitor to deal with the buying or selling of a property!!!

My case has just concluded and i would like to say what a pleasure it has been to be represented by Simpson Millar. I would like to say thank you to Simon Lomax and Charles Bloomer in particular, they have worked extremely hard on what has been a long drawn out case due to the other party being unresponsive and simply difficult at every stage. Simon kept me updated throughout the process and was on hand to answer any questions/explain the process. I would like to thank Simon and Charles for the commitment and dedication. I would highly recommend Simpson Millar. Thank you once again.

I instructed Simpson Millar back in May all was ok until they closed the conveyancing department, they instructed me 3 different solicitors in 2 weeks the last one was Zakia Razzaq, no work was carried out in 5 weeks my buyer was unhappy and I could not continue with this company, I would advise anybody who has been handed over to a solicitor to get out now, they will not complete your work they will tell you they are working on your file
I was told many times that my file was being looked at and nothing had been done
You may end up losing your purchase or sale, I have now instructed a new solicitor who is working hard to pick up the mess they have left behind, I also felt I could not trust this company to handle the large money transactions or that I would be able to reach somebody on exchange and completion dates, this company is a shambles

I engaged Simpson Millar to carry out conveyancing for the purchase of our next house. The 1st conveyancer left the business without warming, the current conveyancer has been impossible to reach for the past two weeks ignoring email & phone messages. Deadline for exchange of contracts passed yesterday, still no contact. Appalling level of service for such an important matter affecting peoples lives, the level of service has impacted all concerned in the chain.

My conveyancing solicitor was Jamuna Rajah. She worked so hard to meet our very tight completion deadline. She had no assistant at the time and a lot of other cases to manage. Her level of expertise are unquestionable and she was happy to explain complex matters in detail. I would not hesitate to recommend Jamuna Rajah to any future clients and I am very happy with the service I have received from Simpson Millar. Thank you again.

Really pleased with how this difficult situation was handled by
S/M.
Hannah constantly kept in touch
to make sure everyone knew what was happening.

Agreed the sale of a property in June. Simple exchange, buyer is not in chain!! Still not complete or no completion date set. You will never get to speak to your solicitor and will find it very difficult to get a response via email. 4 months later I am completely in the dark with what is happening with my case. There simply is no one in the company to turn to. All you get is a switch board who will 'pass' the message on and request a call back. This has never happened. I am going to engage another solicitor this week to complete my sale.

Instructed Simpson Millar to deal with a complex holiday sickness claim.
Simon Lomax was relentless with this claim and with the assistance of Tom Yarrow at a court hearing not only justice was delivered but also compensation.
Very grateful to Simon and all the team & Simpson Millar. Highly recommended!

I am not too sure where we would stand by writing about the details of our treatment by Simpson Millar Conveyancing. I would really like to tell you the whole story and name names but we cannot afford to become involved in any kind of legal proceedings. In fact, even if I felt secure enough to relate the events, you wouldn't believe them because they are, quite frankly, implausible. Stating the objective facts, we lost everything in terms of buying a house and securing the long term future of our extended family. We are now stuck in (unnecessarily expensive) rented accommodation and my mother has been forced into a Care Home expressly against our wishes. If we had the financial resources, we would begin a legal case against them (which is a joke within itself). When the same thing happens to you, DON'T even consider using the Legal Ombudsman- they will waste your time for a year and, then, merely side with the Solicitor (ultimately, it is akin to someone laughing in your face due to you being absolutely powerless). Instead, please do heed my warning; deal with Simpson Millar Conveyancing at your own peril. We wish to God that we had read the relevant reviews below beforehand.

Don’t go anywhere near Simpson Millar, their service is absolutely appalling. They don’t care about you as a client. Their communication skills are below nil! I tried to get a house sale through with them which started end April, they were slow and uncommunitive. They kept asking me the same questions and then didn’t pass these onto my buyers solicitors. I emailed them and they never got back to me. I rang them and they never got back to me, in fact in the end the receptionist was incredibly rude and refused to give me either of the people who were suppose to be sorting out my case and refused to give me an email address. My estate agent tried to get hold of them as did the buyers solicitor with no joy. I was suppose to exchange this week, but have had no response even though I have rung them everyday and emailed two or three times a day. They have caused me so much stress and anxiety I have now instructed a new solicitor and just hope that I can get to exchange and completion with them. They treated me very badly so please avoid avoid avoid!!!!!

Sampson Millar is an extraordinary team.
Nicola Roberts followed my case with a positive outcome.
Very efficient and reliable.

Trustful Ownest Service
Thank you

My case has been with the firm since July, close to completion and since august been ghosted. No response at all, my solicitor left the firm and I was not even notified until last week and no updates at all. Can’t reach the “direct numbers” no response to emails or voice mails. The vendor’s deadline is near and we might end up losing our first home! Absolutely appalled by the service, complete lack of professionalism! Biggest mistake I have made selecting this firm for my conveyancing services!
