GN Law

I have used Gaddes Noble previously to buy property and have been very happy with their service. Upon trying to instruct them again recently, the online 3rd party systems they now use to carry out financial and ID checks have made me seriously rethink ever using them. Trying to jump through the various digital hoops has taken up hours of my time and driven me almost insane. The solicitors themselves are sympathetic but unable to help as they "can't see what you see on your screen". The system for checking the source of funds requires customers to connect it to their bank account. Really???!!!! I asked Nat West if that was advisable and they said that I could do it at my own risk!!!!! Gaddes Noble's head office needs to seriously rethink the systems it uses to carry out these checks or they will certainly lose any future custom from me.

The people who purchased my property used this Firm - They ignored my solicitor for weeks, then said they had not received information which had been sent to them 6 weeks previously. The estate agent and my buyer were constantly chasing them. On completion day they held onto the funds as long as they possibly could, they avoided my solicitor's calls for hours and sent the funds as late in the day as possible.. I have never heard of this firm but I certainly know who they are now and would never recommend them to anyone. They made the whole process more stressful than it needed to be, they do not seem to appreciate they are dealing with people's lives.

The worst solicitor I have ever dealt with. Uncontactable, constantly out of office or on annual leave. I only managed to speak to my solicitor Paulette twice in 6 months in what was a drawn out process (and was only for the purchase of a house, not the sale). The receptionist Sue was rude and constantly huffing and puffing down the phone. AVOID

Currently dealing with GN law with a straight forward transfer of equity case. Progress is incredibly slow. Trying to get an update is very challenging, and when you do they are far from informative, almost as if it’s not their problem in certain aspects. I you can choose any other company to represent you. I may be doing the same the way things are going. One star only because you can’t give any less.

After years of trying to find reliable solicitors for often time sensitive property deals, we finally came across Gaddes Noble. Since then we haven't looked back, putting a number of deals through them, both for ourselves and for our clients. Joe is incredibly helpful and has never let us down. Often working under serious time pressure with distressed purchases in order to get the legals through in as little as 2 weeks in some cases. We will continue to work with and recommend our clients to them as we believe them to be the best property lawyers in the business!
