Chadwick Lawrence Avis 

These have got to be one of the worst conveyancing solicitors I have dealt with. They are ignoring calls and emails from their own client, they have changed the solicitor handling the case THREE times and have caused repeat work and significant delays throughout the process. They are now dragging their feet.

We had an extremely difficult purchase (and a fairly standard sale) in early 2026 and the team at Chadwick Lawrence could not have handled both better. They were totally professional at all times, explained everything in a clear way, and also had a bit of the human touch that is so important when things are getting stressful and time is tight. Emma and Michelle in particular were stars, and everything worked out in the end only through their hard work, experience, persistence, and care. We are so grateful and can't speak highly enough of them.

UPDATE (24/06/2026): The company has reached out following this review to update the status. As long as responses remain prompt and don't take weeks, I will gladly update the rating and text once we exchange contracts.

Instructed through SAM Conveyancing, and their lack of communication and complete lack of urgency have been appalling. The entire chain is fully ready to exchange contracts, but the transaction is completely stalled because Chadwick Lawrence is still stuck in the enquiries stage.

By January 2026, all of our searches, survey reports, contracts, and management packs were ready to go. Instead of moving the file forward, Chadwick Lawrence went completely radio silent for nearly three months, entirely ignoring chasing from both the estate agent and the seller’s solicitors until late April.

Every single round of enquiries takes them a month to action, even when the seller’s side responds within days. I sent an email asking for basic details on 05/06/2026, and more than two weeks later, I am still waiting for a response.

Their poor administrative proactiveness and failure to reply to clients or third parties have added months of unnecessary stress to this transaction. If you value communication, speed, and keeping your property chain together, absolutely look elsewhere.

A huge thank you to Ami Law at Chadwick Lawrence.

After sustaining an injury that was initially misdiagnosed, I was advised to pursue a medical negligence claim. My original solicitor later left Chadwick Lawrence, and Ami took over my case and I'm incredibly grateful that she did.

From start to finish, Ami was approachable, supportive, thorough, and highly professional. She kept me informed at every stage of the process, ensuring I understood exactly what was happening with my claim. Legal proceedings can be overwhelming, particularly when dealing with complex legal terminology, but Ami always took the time to explain things clearly and answer any questions I had.

Having taken over my case just six months ago, Ami has now successfully negotiated a settlement that I am extremely happy with. Her dedication, expertise, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome were evident throughout.

Thank you to Chadwick Lawrence, and especially to Ami. She is a fantastic solicitor who worked tirelessly on my behalf and helped secure the best possible result for me. I would highly recommend her services.

Easy to deal with and prompt response to emails. A stress free transaction

AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS.
Zero communication, turned a simple buy to let purchase into a absolute mess. No care or attention to my file, didnt even have the capacity to tell me my solicitor had left the company, didnt care or manage my mortgage deadlines which expired, couldn't even pass on my final search enquirys unitill 2 weeks before already extended mortgage final deadline, after 3 months of asking with Zero response. Caused me financial loss, by having to get 2 VALUATIONS, and after all this they offered me 150 pound discount which was a insult.
PLEASE AVOID

Lynda Harland did a great job with conveyancing of a recent property sale. She is so efficient, responsive and caring. This is the second time I have used her and I won't go anywhere else now. It was such a smooth sale and I was kept informed at all stages. Thank you Lynda.

Nafeesa Javed and her team at Chadwick Lawrence handled my purchase of my new home with professionalism throughout. The transaction was more complex than a typical purchase, with my position as a sitting tenant buying from my landlord, a delayed completion, and significant new information about a neighbouring development emerging late in the process.
Nafeesa was patient with my questions, took time to explain options clearly, and gave me proper advice when difficult decisions needed to be made. When the original completion date slipped, the team worked to get a new date secured promptly, and the legal work was thorough and well documented.
The transaction was not without its moments, as is true of many property purchases, but Nafeesa and her team kept things on track and delivered a clean completion. I am grateful for their work and would recommend them to others looking for a careful, experienced conveyancing team.

Very professional and competent throughout the process
Relaxed and friendly interaction
Strong communication and friendly environment

Overall Chadwick Lawrence was very easy to work with. Alisha in particular was excellent and very professional. The process was clear and they communicated throughout the transaction. I would have no hesitation in recommending them

Fantastic and excellent service highly recommend

Excellent service for two and half months leading to a successful completion today, at good cost too. Out Chadwick Lawrence team followed through with the house purchase speedily, searches and enquiries were thorough, and they always sent regular correspondence and set clear expectations on next steps. I am glad we had our purchase done through Chadwick Lawrence and would definitely recommend their services.

Worst conveyancing experience ever. Was given two separate conveyancers. One for sale and one for the purchase. The purchase conveyancer was A*, we had absolutely no issues with Nichola. She was lovely, prompt and polite. The issue lay with our selling conveyancer who was not prompt, unhelpful and sat on things for weeks. She also went on annual leave and didnt inform us in advance on one of the days we were looking to exchange contracts. There was no backup in place and the company refused to hand it over to another conveyancer. We raised a complaint with her team leader Vicky S who was just rude and a bully. Bearing in mind I was 8 months pregnant at the time, she laughed at me down the phone and pretended the line was bad to get me off the phone. She was then surprised when I lost my rag. No compassion in this woman whatsoever, absolutely heartless. A very stressful situation for me, made worse by a dismissive lady. The complaint was raised further to Sarah and she was threatening to throw our entire file out. The Company refused to then speak to me on the phone at all. I honestly would recommend you avoid this company and pay a little extra for some people who actually want to help you out and have a bit of humanity and morality. I definitely wont be using again.

Anu was lovely with me and so helpful with her advice, everything went very smoothly. Many thanks. Phil

Avoid them at all cost!!!!

What should have been a relatively straightforward process became a 7-month ordeal due to repeated delays, lack of communication, and poor case management. I regularly had to chase for updates, calls were never answered or returned, and important information was only provided after repeated follow ups. I had issues with fee transparency and lack of responsiveness at critical deadlines and escalation to management did not improve the situation. I have now submitted a formal complaint.

I would NOT recommend them. Pay a bit more to another solicitors instead.

My mortage advisor recommended Chad wick Lawrence to me, I have had consistent emails updates and everything been a speedy process
Great team and very helpful

Chadwick Lawrence handled both my late mum's probate and the sale of her house, and I was very pleased with the service throughout.
The probate process was dealt with efficiently and professionally by Angela, giving us confidence during what was a difficult time. Pam and Lydia were also excellent in managing the house sale. They kept everything moving and dealt expertly with the additional complexity of the property being unregistered with the Land Registry, as my parents had bought it back in 1962.
The sale was particularly emotional for our family, as the house had been our family home for over 60 years, and their professionalism and support were greatly appreciated. I would happily recommend Chadwick Lawrence to anyone needing probate or conveyancing services.

It was a very complicated process, but even though Rhiaanne, worked very hard to make it go smothly , tge processes take very long , still you guys tried to quickest as you can: like to chase the other side lawyer other than i would like to say thank you speciallt Rihanna

Made to feel at ease by Tom Grice who guided me through the process and recorded my wishes in a very understanding way and recorded them to be legally agreed and with due sympathy

Chadwick and Lawrence were very good. If I had any questions they always answered and we're very helpful. They also used an app, so I could check the progress and see what else was needed to be done. Would definitely recommend them brilliant.
