      I reported this form of solicitors for fraud to the Legal Ombudsman Service in 2014. As one can see from the statistics of the Legal Ombudsman my complaint along with the vast majority of solicitors was rejected. The fraud was so great I was unable to peruse the matter further and had to advise I did not accept the decision. I believe if the Legal Ombudsman had found in my favour and properly investigated the matter in 2014 many more clients who have been subsequently defrauded by R Hallows would have been spared the problems of being defrauded by R Hallowd.

      The most unprofessional lawyer I’ve had the misfortune to deal with. Never took or returned any calls from me whilst dealing with probate. Do not touch with an electrified 10 foot barge pole!

      I did some "urgent" professional work for Hallows solicitors in April 2016 and I have not been fully paid yet. A Court order has been issued for the unpaid work and this has been ignored also a mediation attempt and phone calls ignored. I anyone works for this organisation I suggest you ask for payment in advance.

      The service was appalling. He cost me and my colleagues a great deal of time and money. I strongly suggest that you avoid his sometime accountant partner Andrew Tate of 22 Kensington Place, Imperial Terrace, Onchan, Isle of Man, IM3 1HL linked to a company called CIN Energy. He is an utterly unreliable fantasist and serial liar.

      22/02/18 - Reviewed by Ian

      Unfortunately the bad practices used by this solicitors means that a simple will not requiring probate, which could have been dealt with with on letter to the bank has not been completed. Dealings with them has resulted in lost mail, non returned phone calls and letters requesting information previously supplied. (to bump up the costs?).

      Fortunately the Solicitors Regulation Authority has shut them down.

      Unfortunately the case was never resolved, but at least no new customers will be subject to the inadequacy of Mr Hallows and his pre-programmed staff.

      I am having the same problems as other reviewers, my calls are not being returned, the person I need to speak to is either out of the office off sick or on the phone, unable to make an appointment to see anybody as Richard Hallows diary is not available.
      This has being going for nearly five months. After taking advice from the Law Society l have no other option but to make a formal complaint about them.

      Personal injury

      1 stars

      27/12/17 - Reviewed by Anonymous

      Avoid at all costs. I provided the practice with substantive information and immediately agreed to take on case. However, after four months have elapsed I have not been provided with legal advice or any progress update. One appointment was made but this was cancelled at late notice due to the staff member being sick. Furthermore, whenever I attend the office the person dealing with my case is either on the phone or out of the office. No replies are received to my telephone calls and emails.
      I anticipate the non-service is entirely contrived and practice tacitly wish for me to engage another solicitor and then charge a substantive cancellation fee.

      I really wish I'd read the many reviews before choosing a local company as they would have put me off completely. They do not return calls/emails etc and you practically have to threaten them with the Legal ombudsman to get anywhere.

      Lindsey Pierce handled my case and advised me generally on my medical negligence claim over a period of some two years. Her advice was always detailed and accurate and was dealt with in an extremely professional and sympathetic manner. Although I ultimately abandoned my claim as it was not fully supported by the medical experts, and would use Hallows again if I needed a solicitor!

      Without doubt this is the worst firm I have ever dealt with. I appointed them to act for me in the sale of a property and during the period of the sale:
      a) they failed to respond to emails/phone calls other than to confirm 'we will get back to you'
      b) they claimed that they hadn't received critical sale documentation from myself - when I pointed out these were all attached (as scanned in documents) to an email I had sent there was a deafening silence - no apology
      c) in critical sale documents they misspelt the address of the property - their response was that I should sign the documents anyway as it wasn't really that important to get the spelling right (something I refused to do insisting they retype the documents!
      d) despite quoting a fixed price (in writing) for undertaking the conveyancing of a property, upon completion they charged me £500 more than the quote. It took me almost 4 months to recover the money as initally they didnt respond to any phone calls/emaile/letters and it was only when I sent them a copy of their original quote letter that they admitted they were wrong - it still took 6 weeks to get the money after this

      Worst solicitors I have ever used. Mr Hallows himself never seemed to work on the file he just seemed to get his staff to do his dirty work for him. Whenever myself and my husband called into the office he was never in.

      Decided to take work elsewhere. I wouldn't even rate the man one star as he's that much of an idiot! Stay clear of this firm and take your money elsewhere. How it's not been black listed I will never know!!!

      Very poor service. During the process of buying my first home, i was not kept up to date on how things were going, calls and emails fell death ears. To top it all, after the final bill was paid to Hallows, i received a letter requesting i pay £136 extra as the last bill "was not final" and they calcualted it wrong. I felt they were exploting a young couple, i refused to pay the add-ons.
