Poor quality of service. In particular from Rosie Mcgarry. Doesnt respond to emails or phone calls. Has poor customer service skills. I feel like Ive been robbed by this firm as I paid top money for their services which were below average. 6 months after the purchase of my property and Im still chasing her for documents that were meant to be transferred to the management company after completion.

Really disappointed with the service we received, the start of the process to get us on board was great, they were very efficient and responsive, but unfortunately it all went downhill from there! We were constantly having to chase for updates, and being told we would have updates by certain dates yet still having to chase days later, Kirsty was good at getting back to us when we needed help with a tricky conveyancing process, but we only heard from our solicitor once throughout the whole process, where she politely told us to stop calling and emailing, despite the fact she was ignoring us

Fantastic service from BLJ. Jenny and Lawrence were fantastic and concluded our purchase of our first home in just over 3 months. The service was exceptional. Our calls were always answered and our emails were replied to swiftly. We were kept updated on the BLJ portal app and we never felt in the dark. They took the stress out of the whole process and we would not hesitate to use BLJ again in the future. Superb.

Thank you so much BLJ for making our property purchase so easy and stress free. We had an App which shows you every stage the process is at and when each goal is achieved, and also you can communicate with your Solicitor on it . Our Conveyancing Solicitor, Lily Dehnad of the Walton Vale Office, was professional and always responded to any questions we had. Thank you very much Lily

Contacted them to buy an apartment in October, they completely forgot about my case, the only times that they remebered about me was at the beginning for 200 initial deposit and today to ask for a settlement payment after I have withdrawn my offer. In between it was a complete lack of communication, lack of response and total indifference, the Estate Agent chased me several times because the seller solicitor coulden't get hold of them. NEVER AGAIN. would not recommend at all.
