Recently used Askews to sell my late my mum's property. During the sale clear communication and care was provided by Paul Hewerdine. I would highly recommend Askews.

Lianne helped me from start to finish with my employment settlement agreement and made the whole process feel straightforward and stress-free. She was incredibly supportive, efficient, and took the time to clearly explain everything to me so I always knew where I stood. Everything was completed within a very short timeframe, which I really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Askews again. Thank you, Lianne.

Recently used Askews conveyancing for both selling and purchasing a property. I did discuss my experience with the team following completion but the letter response summed up the experience. No accountability, deflection of blame , unable to understand the consumer.I would like to say that Hugh was a standout and fantastic, prompt email responses. Honest with his answers if he wasn’t sure. He was great! Maira was less involved from a communication standpoint but I was overall happy with the purchasing side of things.I initially spoke to ? Laura prior to onboarding and was under the assumption she would be at least one of the representative conveyancers. I explained my situation in detail and the urgency behind the sale. I don’t think this was ever relayed to my representatives. I thought it would be common courtesy to call your client and introduce yourself verbally with a brief phone call. I had to repeat myself to both parties the urgency behind my sale/purchase and this never filled me with confidence.Paul takes a ridiculously long time to respond to emails and provided no verbal communication or updates throughout with exception to completion day phone call. Nisheet was in one email then suddenly disappeared. I hear they left promptly- why was I not informed?Telephone calls with Harpreet were the worst customer experiences I have come across in some time. Telephone mannerism were rude, tone was not great and she didn’t know answers to basic legal questions e.g what does a local search show/look for? It can be okay to not know the answer but she made up an answer when she should have asked somebody who knows the answer to respond to this.I met Harpreet in person for sign in checks. She was late, didn’t introduce herself or show any basic courtesy’s. On signing she appeared rushed, hadn’t read any of my correspondence. Repeatedly highlighted how busy she was and she ‘wasn’t really part of my case’ but was unable to explain who was. On signing she knew know details of my case and certainly not my urgency.One of the reason I chose Askews was to be represented as both buyer and seller so communication would be quicker. The sellers sent an email with everyone included with some questions which I responded to within 1 hour of being sent. It took Paul and co over 1 weeks to respond and they even contacted me asking to provide the answers without checking their own inbox.It does appear that some of my above themes appear in your online reviews but your initial price was competitive hence why I chose Askews. There is a consistent theme of poor communication, lack of common courtesy and etiquette.I am just greatly disappointed by the service. I felt if I hadn’t had previous knowledge of buying/selling a house that your teams are not attentive enough. I don’t think you have the customer at the forefront of your service and I felt I had to check in far too frequently to feel confident timelines would be achieved.On sharing my concerns met with a very defensive approach again deflecting any responsibility.This is part of the response to the above‘ I have spoken with Harpreet about your comments as to her conduct when she invited you to sign documents. She does not recall being late, but sometimes when our staff receive calls prior to meeting clients, they can overrun unexpectedly which can set our staff back, but there is never an intention to be late’It would have been much more appropriate to apologise for the experience and take accountability.Askews appears cheaper than others but I’ve also used mander Hadley next door who are thorough/ great customer service at a slightly higher cost.If you are a frequent buyer and seller then Askews may be for you. If it’s your first time then I would avoid and look for a conveyancer who’s is able to listen and understand your needs.

Frequently asked questions

How can we help you? Please browse some popular topics below or you can use our search function at the top of the page to find what you are looking for.

How do I know Askews Legal LLP is a reputable, talented law firm?

Our claims of excellent client service and best in class legal advice and representation are supported by our investment in legal accreditations, exceptional client reviews, and case studies. We are regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and hold a Lexcel accreditation from the Law Society of England and Wales, which demonstrates our commitment to client care, meticulous case management, the continual growth and development of our staff, and investment in technology.

Can you take on my case?

For certain legal matters, we can offer a free 30-minute consultation to new clients. This helps us establish whether or not your case is something we can advise and represent you on. We have a professional duty to be scrupulously honest, meaning you can trust that if we feel pursuing legal action is not in your best interests, we will tell you so. Furthermore, if we do not have the expertise to take on your case or there is a conflict of interest, we will refer you to another law firm.

How much do your services cost?

All SRA regulated law firms are required to be open and transparent about pricing. For some legal matters, such as conveyancing transactions, we can offer a Fixed Fee. Please view our Fees Page for information about our pricing.

What if I am not happy with your service?

We take client care extremely seriously. As a Lexcel accredited law firm, we provide an accessible and clear complaints procedure for our clients. You can also contact the SRA, Law Society, or the Legal Ombudsman if you are unhappy with an aspect of our service.

I am not able to travel to your office – do you make home visits?

Yes, although we do have to charge for the trip. We are committed to ensuring everyone has access to justice; therefore, if you are shielding or disabled, we are happy to come to you. We can also arrange video conference meetings.

I do not live in Coventry. Can you still represent me?

Our legal team regularly supports clients across the country, not only those who are based in Coventry. The distance between you and our office will have no effect on our ability to provide highly effective advice or representation.

Do you have Coronavirus precautions in place?

Absolutely. We follow all government guidance on Coronavirus safety. Furthermore, we understand some people are more vulnerable or would prefer to continue to socially distance. Just let us know your preferences before any meetings, and we will make any reasonable accommodations.

I am not sure whether I need a Solicitor?

Many people do not know when to seek legal advice for a problem, and this often results in them not contacting a Solicitor until it is too late. We are a friendly team and abide by the motto “there are no silly questions”. If you are unsure whether you need professional legal advice, please give us a call to make an appointment. Coffee/tea and biscuits and a ready ear are all in good supply.
