Liz Mayer Team
My past experience of solicitors, possibly blinkered, has always been quite frosty, but this was far from the case in dealing with Liz’s team.
All of Liz, Jan and Sami were a breath of fresh air, very friendly, courteous and approachable and above all very professional.
They were very patient and gave me plenty of time to fully explain issues, when at times I was initially failing to digest the implications of more crucial matters.
When time became a factor for the exchange of contracts, Liz played a prominent role in pushing things along between other solicitors in the chain, to achieve that critical completion date.
I would definitely have little hesitation in recommending Step Legal and especially this team for any conveyancing matters.

Dear Peter,
Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a generous and considered review of your experience with Step Legal.
We were particularly pleased to read your comments regarding your initial expectations and how they were exceeded through your dealings with Liz’s team. Providing a service that is not only highly professional but also friendly, approachable and supportive is something we place great importance on, so it is extremely rewarding to know this came through so clearly in your experience.
Your recognition of the team’s patience and willingness to take the time to fully explain matters is especially appreciated. Conveyancing can be complex, and we believe it is essential that clients feel comfortable, informed and never rushed when important decisions are being made. We are also grateful for your acknowledgment of Liz’s proactive role in driving matters forward when time became critical; ensuring momentum across a chain can be challenging, and your feedback reflects the dedication and commitment she brings to her work.
Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and we will be sure to share your kind words with Liz, Jan and Samantha, who will be delighted to hear how positively their efforts were received.
Thank you once again for choosing Step Legal. We wish you every happiness moving forward and would be very pleased to assist you again in the future should you require any further legal support.

OK service, but wouldn't use again or recommend
OK service, I would not recommend or use them again personally.
Good points, quick reply for working 3 days a week.
Bad points, because they couldn't find my medical records, made me feel like a scammer. Even though I had the car park receipts for my attendance. Very poor on out of pocket expenses, down over a thousand pounds.

However, we are deeply concerned to read about the aspects of your experience that fell short of your expectations. Please accept our sincere apologies for any distress caused during the process of obtaining your medical records and for the frustration regarding your out-of-pocket expenses.
At Step Legal, we aim to handle every case with sensitivity, care and thoroughness. The feeling you describe is contrary to our values, and we are sorry that our communication made you feel undervalued. We recognise that proving certain aspects of a claim can be a stressful process, and we aim to always provide clearer guidance and support.
Regarding your out-of-pocket expenses, we take this matter very seriously. Our goal is to ensure clients are fully satisfied.
To address your concerns properly and see how we can improve, we would be grateful if you could contact our Customer Experience Team directly at enquiries@steplegal.co.uk or 01270254064. This will allow us to investigate the specifics of your case and understand what went wrong.

Outstanding service from Liz Mayer team on property purchase
My partner and I instructed Step Legal Solicitors in Stoke-on-Trent for our recent property purchase. As first-time buyers, we were dealing with a complicated transaction that involved leasehold, shared ownership, and a deed of variation.
Liz Mayer was outstanding throughout the entire process. Her attention to detail is excellent; she identified errors in the lease that had been missed by all other previous parties.
Despite the complexity of the purchase, we reached completion in just 10 weeks, due to Liz’s efficient workflow and her willingness to actively chase other parties to prevent delays. She prepared everything in advance to ensure we were ready as soon as the paperwork allowed.
Liz was entirely transparent and honest, keeping us informed at every stage so we knew exactly how to assist. She was also very reassuring, taking the time to answer our many questions as new buyers.
Her team were just as excellent - they were always friendly and quick to respond. On the occasion that we needed to speak to the team on the phone, we were never left on hold, and would talk to a human within seconds of dialing.
With the complexities of this purchase, and with us being first-time buyers, I had expected nothing but stress. However, the service that we were provided took all of our stress away, and made for a smooth transaction.
I cannot reccomend Step Legal and Liz Mayer enough. Our expectations were excelled at every stage, and we will certainly be using Step Legal in the future.

Your kind comments regarding the team’s responsiveness and professionalism are also greatly appreciated and will be shared with everyone involved. Providing clear guidance, reassurance and a smooth experience for our clients is always our priority, and it is rewarding to know that we were able to alleviate what could have been a stressful process.
