I had two previous dealings which went sort of Ok . Third one involving a commercial lease went really bad. I was quoted 1500 for the lease intially. After paying the undertakings and receiving the first draft from the landlord they wanted to charge 3500+Vat!!!!!!!! for a Simple commercial lease which other solicitor was happy to do for 1200+vat . Complete extortion. Their Justification was that
I wanted the lease done quickly !!!!!!. I transferred my matter to another solicitor . Would not use for any dental related purchases .
