Vincents Solicitors Avis 

Really pleased with the service we received to get our exchange done in record time! Both Dave Lavery and Kerry Rankine were very helpful, proactive and got everything sorted quickly for us. We'd definitely recommend them to others. Thanks both for your help!

When Dave Lavery took over my case he was very supportive and helped me get my sale to completion. He responded quickly and explained everything to me in lots of detail, and was happy to help with any questions I had.

Despite issues with our chain, Dave was very efficient, professional and friendly throughout the process. Would recommend.

Amanda Littler was superb in the legal work of selling and buying our home. She kept us up to date throughout a really challenging time. Would highly recommend.

My experience with Vincents has been fabulous. The staff are always polite, courteous and professional.

A special mention must go to Dave Lavery, who is simply brilliant. He is professional, efficient, approachable and always extremely courteous. His communication and service have been excellent throughout.

I’m very happy with the service I’ve received and look forward to continuing to work with Vincents and Dave in the future. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

I have just used Vincent's solicitor's in Lytham for a house sale and I am really happy with their service.
Rhian was the solicitor acting on my behalf and she was great to deal with.
The whole process was efficiently deal with from the on boarding process to the completion of the sale.
I would highly recommend Vincent's Solicitor's and I definitely will be using them again.

Callum Dudley is the reason I used this firm of solicitors. I couldn’t care less about the firm, all I know is that Callum has always done a fantastic job for me. I will continue using Callum for future transactions. This particular transaction wasn’t the easiest but Callum stayed calm and dealt with issues as they were thrown at us. Thanks to Callum we completed in a timely manner.

We were the sellers in a transaction where this firm represented the buyers. The buyers were first-time buyers, we had already moved out of the property, and there was no onward chain. Their offer was accepted on 1 August, yet the transaction did not complete until the following March – more than seven months later.

Throughout the process we found the buyers’ solicitors extremely slow and difficult to deal with. There were lengthy periods with little apparent progress, matters that had already been answered were revisited, and basic errors caused further unnecessary delay.

One particularly concerning example was their insistence that the transaction could not proceed while a Land Registry application relating to some additional land was pending. When we made clear that we were therefore going to withdraw from the sale and accept another offer, they subsequently confirmed that the sale could proceed with appropriate wording in the contract after all.

They later advised that they could not proceed because a title was shown as closed at Land Registry and raised concerns about protecting their lender’s security. Unfortunately, the title number they had checked was not even the title number of the property we were selling. We, as the sellers, had to point out that they were using the wrong title number.

There were further delays very late in the transaction because the lender's revised mortgage offer contained the wrong purchase price. There were also basic questions raised shortly before completion about matters such as meters, the stopcock, fences and the alarm, despite these having been answered in the property information supplied many months earlier.

Conveyancing can obviously involve genuine complications and not every delay is a solicitor’s fault. However, this was a single-property, no-chain transaction with first-time buyers and a vacant property, and our experience was that far too much of the delay and difficulty arose from poor administration, lack of attention to detail and an unnecessarily obstructive approach.

The whole process was exceptionally frustrating and took far longer than we believe it reasonably should have. Based on our experience of dealing with this firm from the other side of the transaction, we would not recommend them.

Very slow, very very slow with a house purchase and sale. No communication and near impossible to get any information out of them. Holding up a whole chain through their lack of progress.
Not our solicitors but they are our buyer’s solicitors.

Very useless avoid them. Especially a Zimbabwean guy called Jo he’s a fraud. My partner has done an immigration application and he never submitted after charging £3000 for legal fees. We reached out to the senior solicitor and he wasn’t helpful. He actually told him that you will not get your money even though the application wasn’t submitted. We contacted that SRA and they comeback saying Joni’s not registered with them he’s not a lawyer he’s a fraud and we should report to the police.

Absolute useless, since getting a quote. I haven’t got a single email reply nor any progress being made with my house purchase. DO NOT USE

As a first-time home buyer, I was naturally concerned about the conveyancing process and wanted to choose a reputable law firm I could trust. That is the main reason I chose Vincents Solicitors in Lytham, and I am delighted with my decision.
Callum Dudley was the solicitor who handled my purchase, and I cannot praise him highly enough. From the very beginning through to completion, he was always available to answer my questions, explain the process clearly, and keep me informed at every stage.
We also had two face-to-face meetings, during which he took the time to address all my concerns and gave me the confidence and reassurance I needed as a first-time buyer. His professionalism, expertise, patience, and excellent communication made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and straightforward.
I am extremely grateful for all of Callum's help and support in purchasing my first home. I would highly recommend both Callum and Vincents Solicitors to anyone looking for a reliable and professional conveyancing service.

As first-time sellers, we were braced for the legendary stress that comes with simultaneously selling and buying a property. However, working with Jack from Vincent Solicitors completely flipped that script.

Jack is a true industry expert who supported us flawlessly through both the sale of our first home and the purchase of our new one. He was incredibly patient with all of our questions, constantly kept us updated at every single stage, and provided an exceptional level of service from start to finish. Thanks to his guidance, what is traditionally a nerve-wracking process was relatively pain-free. We cannot recommend Jack and Vincent Solicitors highly enough.

We've used Callum many times in the past for our house purchases. He is very diligent and efficient in making the process as smooth as possible. Each purchase has gone extremely smoothly with no issues and I will be using him again in the future!

Bought my house through Vincents. All of my questions were answered super fast, communication was excellent and the whole process was quick to complete. I was kept informed at every stage and felt very much in the loop. Big thank you to Lee Ogden especially, I look forward to using them again in the future.

This company ultimately lost us our house sale down to their total and utter incompetence. They clearly had no idea what they were doing. Delays responding to our solicitor and agent, continual mistakes and errors along with shocking spelling and grammar in their emails to our agent repeatedly asking for information the already had. So after 6 months of extreme stress on what should have been a simple purchase our buyer pulled out over a non
existent problem they had fuelled by their lack of knowledge.
At the end of the day you get what you pay for! Use a proper local solicitor who knows your area and knows what they are doing. I would add these were our purchasers solicitors not ours they have scarred me for life and now we have to start all over again shame on you Vincents

Many thanks to Dave Lavery for guiding us through our mortgage paperwork. He came out to the house & explained everything so clearly , made the whole thing feel very easy. Done & dusted in record time too. Many thanks.

Very approachable could always contact them if needed and would highly recommend recommend them to anyone

Callum Dudley is very much deserving of high praise and is a credit to this firm. We were recommended Callum by our estate agents, and thankfully they knew what they were talking about. Everything was handled quickly and professionally, nothing was too much trouble for Callum and his team. We've moved a few times over the last few years with my work and can confidently say this has been the best, and least stressful transaction we've ever had.

Massive thank you to Vincent Solicitors and the Chorley office for looking after me in my property move. Regular updates via email and when there was complex things like the forms Dave Lavery also called to talk me through them. I have spoken to other people that have done this with other firms and they haven’t had the good experience that I have had. Highly recommend.
He just put me at ease right away. A credit to the firm.
