Watson Woodhouse Solicitors Omdömen 

I have just collected the keys to our new home after completing today, and I would like to say a huge thank you to our conveyancing solicitor, Richard Rutter.

It has been a long journey of almost four months, and throughout the whole process we felt supported by his professionalism and efficiency. He always made it very clear what needed to be done and when.

At several points, we were under pressure from others in the chain to exchange contracts as soon as possible. However, Richard was firm that we should avoid risks and wait until our Lifetime ISA and other funds were fully ready before exchanging. I really appreciated his judgement, as it took a lot of pressure off us.

Our exchange was then delayed 3 times because others in the chain were not ready. Richard proactively pushed things forward and made attempts to exchange, always at the earliest possible opportunity. I really appreciated his patience and persistence throughout.

We are very grateful for his professional support throughout this long journey, and very happy to have finally received the keys to our new home.

Great service with very helpful & pleasant staff that kept me informed all the way through the sale of my home & purchase of a new home.

I would 100% recommend this practice. Andrew was fantastic, very efficient, full of good advice and fully represented my interests. Whenever I contacted the office the staff were very accommodating and professional. I will soon be going back to have a new will made and consider them now to be "my" solicitors. I am also grateful to the estate agent that pointed me in this direction.

I would highly recommend Olivia Dixon at Watson Woodhouse. Olivia was professional, approachable and extremely helpful throughout the whole process. She took the time to explain everything clearly, kept me updated and made what could have been a stressful experience feel much easier.

I really appreciated her hard work, patience and attention to detail. I felt that I was in safe hands from start to finish, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received.

Thank you, Olivia, for all your help and support. I would definitely recommend you and Watson Woodhouse to anyone looking for a reliable and professional solicitor.

Excellent service from Watson Woodhouse. Very professional, helpful and friendly. The conveyancing process was flawless and very efficient. Would recommend them to anyone.

We recently bough a house using watson woodhouse as our solicitors, Richard was great, very good communication, very responsive and speedy service and helped answer any questions we had. I highly recommend him and the company and thank them for doing an amazing job.

Great service from Watson Woodhouse who completed the sale of our house and the purchase of our new one over the last two days.
It took a many weeks due to dealing with sellers probate solicitors on our purchase and the sellers were overseas making it difficult. Katie Gibson and Andrew Temple looked after us very well and did a great job.
Livvy was also very good to deal with and communication was excellent.
Wouldn’t hesitate in using Watson Woodhouse again in future.

If it was possible to give them 0 stars I would. Even one star is far too high of a dating. Absolutely awful solicitors avoid them. They open files under legal aid and then they do not provide any legal advice. They count talking to the receptionist as providing legal advice. They are absolute scammers.

Recently sold two properties and purchased one with the legal support of Watson Woodhouse at Stockton. Very professional service and always kept up to date. They responded to queries in a timely manner and shared information between themselves on the transactions so that all progressed smoothly. Would not hesitate to recommend this firm for conveyancing and special thanks to Andrew, Lucy and Katie.

Excellent service from watson woodhouse, Professional, helpful, and always kept me updated throughout the process. Everything was handled efficiently and with great attention to detail. I am very happy with the outcome and would highly recommend their services.

A very professional service. Very quick turnaround buying a house. Andrew Temple kept us informed all the way through the process, and acted in a timely professional manner. I would definitely use their services again. Highly recommended

This was a very stressful time for me selling and moving house when just getting over illness.Richard kept in touch and constantly gave me reassurance and explained anything I was unsure about.I felt looked after and well informed about everything I feel Richard went above and beyond to ensure I did not receive more stress than needed be.Thank you Richard I would recommend Richard Rutter excellent soliciter.

Hi i am one of Watson Woodhouse Solicitors long time customer and I have been let down from them big time as receptionists and Mr Nain one of the Solicitors made me look like a fool while I was there to certify a letter for me I was happy to pay for the fees but they have refused to help even I asked i want to see a manager but the have ignored me and refused to help full stop !!!!. While a very nice Solicitors next door to them Smith and Graham Mr Jameel Bashir very helpful gentleman helped me even I have never have used any if their services before . I will never ever use Watson Woodhouse Solicitors again and will strongly advise to all their customers and public to think twice before you go to Watson Woodhouse Solicitors thanks.

My experience with Watson Woodhouse was absolutely 2nd to none, my solicitor Lewis Austin was absolutely fantastic start to finish with my case, couldn’t have asked for a better representative, his attention to detail with my case was superb and his attitude towards his work was absolutely fantastic, such a good lad, i would recommend to anyone, especially when my case was one of such a serious matter, he kept me and my family calm and level headed through such a stressful time in our lives, thank you so much Lewis!!!

A big thank you to Richard and the team at Watson Woodhouse. Your professionalism, knowledge and positive attitude made all the difference and ensured my house sale completed. You guided me through some complex issues and your advice was always first class

I highly recommend Watson Woodhouse. Thank you for your patience and going the extra mile when it was needed!

absolutely wonderful service very care and understanding team of solicitors would definitely use again thank you

I contacted Civil Legal Advice regarding an urgent Section 204 homelessness appeal. The advice was being handled by Watson Woodhouse Solicitors as part of Civil Legal Advice.
They took all details, created an account and password for me and told me to wait for a solicitor to contact me. I was also told not to contact other solicitors
For the next 2 weeks I kept calling because the matter was urgent and there was a strict appeal deadline. Each time I was told that I was on the waiting list and that urgency was added.
Then on a Friday afternoon, only 3 working days before the appeal deadline, I was told that there was no funding available and that I needed to find another solicitor instead.
When I contacted another solicitor, they were surprised that I left it so late, but the reason was because I was waiting for updates and believed the case was moving forward. This left almost no time to prepare the appeal properly with another firm.
I understand funding can be limited, but this should have been explained much earlier instead of keeping us waiting during an urgent appeal process. The delay caused a lot of stress and loss of valuable time trying to secure legal representation.

From day one to day 191 Olivia supported our family from overseas initial contact was made via telephone then she travelled out to Cyprus. She was at the end of the phone every hour any request made from myself was actioned from her within 24hours and great communication made!
We knew exactly what was happening and when, no clue with the law ourselves first time and Olivia made it not so scary!!
We can not recommend Olivia Dixon enough- professional and high standards from day 1 all the way through.
She was able to pick up on information shared with her to use as evidence that we didnt realise could be useful her and the barrister were amazing and settled our worry.
Yes we won the case! And very grateful for the support and guidance throughout 5stars from us!!

Honestly the worst solicitor I’ve ever dealt with. Communication was shocking, requests for information they didn’t need, negativity from solicitors, constant delays and no accountability. Stopped bothering and contacted another solicitor where I received professionalism, amazing communication, felt heard & prioritised, my legal aid was completed within 5 days vs the 5 months I was in contact with Watson!!

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! The worst communication I have ever experienced from a company! They don’t care about you or the dream family home you are buying. They told us the purchase of our new family home was delayed due to contracts with another company. Two months down the line this process wasn’t completed and now they want over £600 to complete this after us paying the final invoice that we were told
On two occasions included all fees for the services that had been provided to us. We are now being threatened after 4 months and told if we don’t pay this our home isn’t in our name. I repeat again DONT USE THIS COMPANY! utter waste of time and money. And not what you expect from a “local” company
