   Wains were recommended to us by a friend. As a whole team, Wains were so professional and friendly. Victoria dealt with both our sale and purchase and was brilliant from start to finish; particularly when things got tricky towards completion. We had confidence in how Victoria dealt with things on our behalf which made it a lot less stressful for us. We’d definitely recommend Wains to anyone.

   I used Wains for the sale of a house - both Vicky Mace and Lisa Bradshaw could not have been more professional, prompt, courteous and communicative. They were available when I phoned and answered all emails promptly, giving me great advice and never leaving me hanging or in the dark. I felt they were acting in my interest the whole time and made the process of selling my property smooth despite the buyers best attempts to complicate the situation. My estate agent similarly commented that she would be recommending them to her clients going forward. I would recommend Wains without hesitation and will be using them for any further conveyancing in future.

   I used Wains solicitors for the sale of my house through recommendation of a family memeber and I am pleased to say that it was a pleasant experience from start to finish. Lisa was polite, professional and courtious through the whole process. Even when Lisa was away for a week for annual leave she had communicated with Victoria to make sure there was no issues whilst she was away. 10/10 service.

   This is my third time working with Wains Solicitors. He was initially recommended to me from my stepfather who’s used his services many times before. I’m London based but have used them for conveyancing 5 years ago, upon the purchase of my flat, last month, upon the sale of that flat and now they are my solicitors for the purchase of my next apartment in London. I’ve always had Roger Gough as my solicitor at Wains, with Lisa Bradshaw as the Head of Business Administration who I contact Roger via her. I’m leaving this review as I just typed them in to make a call and saw some bad reviews (to which I was pretty shocked!?) and have only ever had a great experience, with fast responses and dedication to getting the work done as efficiently and quickly as possible always, good communication and friendly to talk to also. I will continue to use Roger at Wains as my solicitor in the future too and also recommend to friends and family.

   Very dated, old fashioned reception. With just as old fashioned and slow service provided by the acting solicitor, who try’s to do the job some company’s have 5 people doing.

   Wains solicitors, Congleton. And in particular A Mr RG We made the mistake of choosing wains to do our house conveyancing. This is just a brief summery of RG’s mistakes when carrying out his job: • Failed to check our buyers had the cash they claimed to buy our old property. • Acted as solicitor for both parties on our new property for both buyer and seller, causing conflict of interest when problems arose. • Failed to advise us of a legal covenant on our property prior to purchase. • Failed to show us our tp1 form advising us of any other restrictions and maintenance costs prior to purchase. • We were not given a copy of ‘our deeds of covenant’ but made to sign a piece of paper agreeing to them 2 weeks after completing our purchase. • When issue’s first got raised by our management committee and neighbor, RG unprofessionally laughed and told us to ignore the situation. • Failed to get back to us in a timely manner at any given point taking weeks to reply to emails. • Eventually offered solutions to help, but failing to do it quick enough told us to contact his insures. • Failed to act quick enough for us to avoid court action from a neighbor. • Ignored emails to him trying to resolve the situation until the legal ombudsman got involved. After contacting wains insures to try and resolve the long list of issues we have, there first solution was for us to move out of our newly purchased family home to fix the situation RG had caused by not doing any stage of his job correctly. Moving my young family (and pregnant wife) out of our home because RG didn’t take care in his job. We have given RG plenty of opportunities to put this situation right. We have been left £6500 in legal costs for over a year now, been taken to court by a neighbor and endured endless amounts of harassment down to a conveyancing solicitor not doing any conveyancing before selling us a property. The only resolution to this looks to be having to take Wains solicitors to court for Professional negligence now. If your looking to move house, I can only advise you to use someone who knows what they are doing, as this firm but in particular RG has caused us nothing but stress, worry and a huge financial loss and totally destroyed 16 months of our life through no fault of our own. His insures are trying to blame us for this whole situation, even though we have written admissions of guilt, and all our conversions with RG recorded.
