SB Lawyers Limited Avis 

Avoid the conveyancing service. Expect to do the work yourself. That's what I had to do when dealing with SB. I think they are only trained on a bog standard conveyancing. If they receive inquiries which are not in their usual day to day then they will just go round in circles until you intervene. At the start of the process, you sign a contract to say that you instruct the solicitor to act on your behalf. Yeah, forget it. You'll be doing the homework and the chasing and you'll pay them all the same. My purchase almost didn't go through. It already passed a deadline and it was hanging by a thread until I opened a complaint procedure then my solicitor finally acted quickly and finally sent the documents which I have been asking her to send for weeks.
Thankfully it all worked out in the end with a late completion at the end of a work day. I finally moved into my new home in the evening.

If you do you them, give them very clear instructions by email because they won't answer your calls. If they don't get back to you in a few days then open a complaints procedure sooner than later.

Thanks for all the stress you put me through over 6 months.

Afraz (assisted by Solomon) was professional and had good soft skills, helping with a few tricky aspects of a sale and purchase and making sure that exchange and completion within a chain of 5 worked out correctly

Really good, very responsive. Never left hanging. Would recommend them.

Quick efficient service. George answered all my emails and explained the process clearly.

We found Afraz George Inayat to be efficient and communicated with us well on the sale of our property. Thank you Afraz

Afraz was very prompt at getting back to me on my sale, and always available to answer my queries. His research into my property was extremely good and what he found actually stopped me from buying a 'dud' so I am very grateful. His work on my sale was excellent and I would definitely recommend.

The personnel that dealt with our sale, mainly Kaytlin Furlong and Georgia Parfitt, were exceptionally helpful and kind to us, an older couple, who are techno-phobics!
Our only negative comment would be that things were slower than we anticipated sometimes, possibly due to distance making communication difficult!
Other than that our experience was a good one, so thank you staff of SB Lawyers for all your help.

Lloyd and Cory dealt with the sale of my property and I would just like to thank them for their efficiency and how quickly they dealt with my case. Every email was answered to the same day there were no unusual delays and everything was corresponded and updated to myself very well to know where I was with the sale.

Very highly recommended and thank you again both.

These people are scammers, rude and terrible communication. I bought my house 2 years ago and they never completed post completion. Therefore I am paying a variable rate for 4 months and have been consistently chasing for updates and constantly get ignored. The last comms that they sent is that they don't work Monday and Tuesday and nothing to do with what the progress regarding post completion in order for me to move over to my new lender. Till now I have no idea what the issue is and when it will be resolved and therefore will be on a variable rate till God knows when. Never knew solicitors can be this bad, I've heard the horror stories so I guess I am living mine.

Lloyd and Cory dealt with the selling of my house and were both courteous and efficient. There were a few delays (somewhat inevitable in the circumstances), but they were unfazed! Always lovely to talk to on the 'phone, they did much to allay my worries. I can recommend them wholeheartedly.

Excellent service during a very difficult time. I was the executor for my mother's estate and had to sell her house. As you can imagine, this was a very emotional time. Elsa was fantastic throughout the whole process. There were difficulties trying to complete (caused by the buyer) but Elsa was constantly on top of her game and did everything to get things completed as soon as possible. I am so grateful to her, and also to her colleague Sharon who was also very kind and caring when she contacted me. I will be selling my own property in the future and would happily use this firm during that process.

Excellent service from Ben Eaton and his team. Always replied to enquiries promptly. Dealt with complex sale efficiently. Very helpful and courteous service.

The sale of our Student rental house was handled by Afraz our solicitor and Solomon the conveyancing assistant. The process was handled extremely efficiently by Afraz who took great care to explain what was going and what stage the process was at. He was polite and knowledgeable and very quick to respond to any questions we had, which made the whole process very straightforward. Thanks to you both.

Sale completed without any issues. All the staff very friendly and efficient. Thank you all

I was very impressed by Zooiyal who worked very hard and diligently on my property sale. Rather disappointed that nobody had told me that Olivia who was meant to be dealing with my case had left.

Really great relationship management - I have dealt mostly with Lloyd and a little with Cory - I have been very impressed. Always really helpful with speedy responses to any questions. Selling a house can be stressful but knowing you have someone to help you through the process and to ensure things go smoothly was fabulous. Thank you so much - really do appreciate your support.

Kept in touch with the sale of our house,via email and phone calls. Replied to our queries promptly. They were very thorough in explaining the process,while the overall process took longer than we anticipated but felt supported throughout .

The company managed to sale of our house well. Sion and then Zooiyal communicated well with us and in a timely manner. I would recommend them to deal with any house sale.

If I could give no stars or minus i would , having been recommended these solicitors I can honestly say what a total useless company they are . In February 2025 I spoke with them at a Cardiff office where they agreed to take on my case a simple deputyship for my Mother who has suffered 3 bleeds on brain a fractured skull causing dementia. She was put into care and I needed to gain deputyship. taking money off me straight away ...4 months down line told a new staff member is dealing with case not to worry ..2 months later I had to chase up only to be told ....we haven't started on your application not one thing has been done .... and we need an extra £400 to start . Unbelievable service form solicitors. When I though I was getting a services I've paid for which would take away from all the stress of dealing with bills and my mother's illness . Only to find nothing had been done since February. I asked for a full refund as fuming that I would then have to find new solicitors to deal with my application. Another 6 months of waiting . I received a letter and a cheque from them today ..... as a gesture if good will ...we are giving you your money back ..
Which we have had since February in our bank account and have done nothing for you dispite signing a contract to do so. DO NOT USE .

The process of trying to sell a leasehold flat has been a pain to say the least. Lloyd and Cory have both gone out of their way to assist wherever possible and at least made the process bearable. Well done Lloyd and Cory for putting up with me and you couldn't go far wrong by having them on your side.
