I can honesty say these are the worst solicitors we have ever dealt with. Due to there inexperience and reply’s to our buyers solicitors our buyer pulled out due to lack of communication and ongoing delays. We tried on multiple occasions to express our concerns but were met by there rude reception lady after taking Upto 45 minutes to get through at times. Avoid Shiria Khanam she took weeks to respond to enquiries and lacked in responding to emails. As a registered conveyors I would avoid anyone wishing to use these guys. We also tried to speak with there management, which we was only provided an email address to Stuart the director who never responded to our concerns!!

My Buyers solicitor used there services and made the process really stressful. Farat, the solicitor in question, barely communicated with my solicitor and the estate agent and when he did it was either one word answers or did not tell the truth i.e. 5 exchange & completion dates promised and didn't happen! As you can imagine, trying to arrange removals and time off work around this made the whole process unbearable and very stressful. Would not ever recommend them to anyone!

Found online for my house sale and it was a nightmare. Hasan and Shiria are very difficult to work with. They won’t reply the emails unless you cc’d their manager. Never recommend to anyone.

Used Stuart & Co. as our solictors when purchasing a leasehold property. It's been 15 months since purchasing and they STILL haven't registered us with the management company and we have massive service charge arrears which we cannot pay until we registered. We have had to chase time and time and time again as they were not even aware themselves what they had missed. All we get in response are incompetent responses, confusion and a general lack of action. They seem to hand the work to trainees or paralegals and we have been moved between 3 different people now. We will have to take legal action against this firm soon if things are not handled correctly very soon. Beyond fed up. WARNING: pay extra and get a decent firm especially if your purchasing a leashold - learn from our ongoing nightmare with Stuart & Co! They may try to refute this claim but I am more than happy to get on a call with you regarding these problems. They know they dropped the ball on this badly.

Extremely disappointed with our experience with Stuart & Co who we had instructed to manage our sale and purchase. Summary of the issues was as follows:

No replies to email correspondence, mo acknowledgement to e-mails even when raising concerns or sending on requested documents, no updates on the progress of our sale/purchase, a 5 week delay with no contact from Stuart & Co who stated they had not received the memorandum of sale despite this being sent to the email address detailed on their website on two occasions, a further 2 week delay due to additional documents being sent which were not opened for 2 weeks to then be told they were not in the correct format, upon deciding to cancel establishing that actually no progress had been made and no searches submitted for our purchase which was agreed on 21st May and finally a GDPR breach whereby I was copied into email correspondence relating to another sale/purchase.

We lost all confidence in Stuart & co being able to manage our sale and purchase and as such changed solicitors.

Extremely disappointing experience.
