Smith Benedict & Co Ltd

Smith Benedict have been absolutely brilliant with assisting me in both a property purchase and a property sale in 2025. Sam Winstanley has been absolutely excellent - always contactable, quick to respond, always looking to help. I will definitely be using Smith Benedict again going forwards. Thank you!

We instructed Smith Benedict to assist with the purchase of our first home. Megan was amazing! She made the process incredibly easy for us. Megan replied to all emails very promptly and provided us with updates throughout. She was very friendly and professional. Thank you, Megan! We are very pleased with these solicitors and would recommend.

I recently engaged Smith Benedict & Co for the second time for the legal aspects of purchasing investment properties, and unfortunately, my experience both times has been profoundly disappointing. The most recent interaction with their team left much to be desired. There were significant delays in responding to my queries and in the verification of essential documents. These delays were so severe that I had to personally request the developers to extend the timeline for exchanging contracts, causing unnecessary stress and uncertainty in an already complex process. Despite being referred to them twice, I regret to say that the level of professionalism demonstrated falls far short of expectations. Communication was inadequate, with emails often going unanswered for days, if not weeks. Furthermore, the lack of attention to detail in verifying crucial documents reflects poorly on their competence and commitment to client satisfaction. As someone who values efficiency and reliability in professional services, I cannot in good conscience recommend Smith Benedict & Co to others. My experiences with them have been marred by frustration and unnecessary complications, casting doubt on their ability to deliver satisfactory results. In conclusion, I urge prospective clients to exercise caution when considering Smith Benedict & Co for their legal needs. It is essential to entrust such critical matters to a firm that values professionalism, responsiveness, and client satisfaction - qualities that, unfortunately, seem to be lacking in my interactions with them.

Top 1% Legal Firm - Effective & Efficient! Brilliant Customer Service Molly and Megan are so professional, flexible and very friendly. We were given 28days to complete a sale, but Megan did it within a WEEK! That's how fast, she is! I would give the Paragon Legals more than 5* if I could, because of my journey that had with them. Thank you SO much for taking my case and delivered at a high QUALITY service, really appreciated! Savi C

We instructed Paragon Legals (now Smith Benedict & Co) for the conveyancing of our auction purchase. The entire conveyancing team was prompt, efficient and extremely professional. They managed the transaction in a clear and transparent manner. It is thanks to Daniel and Holly that the transaction was completed within 5 weeks of instruction and we are very happy with their service. We would gladly instruct them again on any of our future property transactions.
