Property Investor Review – Myerson Solicitors
I recently used Myerson Solicitors to complete the purchase of an investment property acquired via auction. Overall, I was very satisfied with the service provided and would both recommend them to others and use them again in the future.
Key positives:
Competitive fees: Their pricing was fair and represented good value for the service received.
Transparent service and fees: I appreciated the clarity in their breakdown of costs and the transparency around what was (and wasn’t) included in their service.
Timely and efficient: They met all required deadlines, which was particularly important given the time pressures of an auction purchase.
Responsive: Communication was generally prompt, and my queries were answered within a reasonable timeframe.
Points for consideration:
Office location: The office is easy enough to reach, although parking can be a challenge. There is metered parking available outside, which helps.
Post-box security: One concern was the external post-box, which is not secure. I didn’t feel comfortable leaving any confidential documents there when the office was closed.
Auction purchase context: As the property was purchased at auction, contracts were exchanged at the fall of the hammer. While this understandably limited the opportunity for standard enquiries, I did feel that this was occasionally used as a catch-all reason not to engage with some of the legal questions I raised. In such cases, I would have valued a clearer legal opinion or interpretation, rather than a default deferral.
Conclusion:
Despite a few minor drawbacks, I found Myerson Solicitors to be professional, efficient, and competitively priced. They handled the transaction well and were reliable throughout. I would be happy to work with them again on future property investments.

Sale and purchase of property
I was unable to add another lawyer s name. Both Laura, who handled the sale of my house and Olivia on the purchase kept us informed of what was going on. I know they both faced problems and frustrations during the process but even with a late exchange of contacts we completed on the desired date. Altogether we were happy with your service ( not moved for 50yrs so out of touch with conveyancing)

A very efficient service
During a protracted house sale over 18 months both Olivia and then Laura provided a professional and efficient service. Emails were answered promptly, always in a polite and friendly manner and all aspects of the process were anticipated and dealt with. We appreciated their knowledge. Staff in supporting roles are also friendly, polite and efficient. Selling your home is stressful, working with Myerson Solicitors isn't.

Conveyancing and Freehold Purchase!
Olivia was recommended to us by The Solicitor dealing with mums estate! It was never going to be straightforward as we were also purchasing The Freehold on completion for mums house in order to sell it. Unfortunately it was like trying to get blood from a stone with the Freeholder’s management company. Olivia was very professional, politely persistent and eventually she was able to secure the Freehold and The sale of mums house too. She and I were totally exasperated by the Freeholders, she kept her cool and I flipped my lid! :) Thankyou Olivia for everything you did for us. If we ever need a conveyancing Solicitor again we would definitely chose you, if you’d take us on!

Tricky Sell But Got There
Working with Olivia was good, she keep us up to date, even when the buyers solicitors were, how would you say, not the most communicative,.
She explained all the ins and out of selling the property and we were really glad that we used her expertise.
She was fast and efficient at getting things done and when I come to buy a house in the future Olivia will be my first port of call for conveyancing.

Buying first property
Super experience throughout. We were recommended Myerson by family who also used during first purchase of a property. The whole process was made easy, Olivia was always on hand to answer calls and replied swiftly and succinctly to emails/app messaging.
There was no airs or graces around the service, everything was made super easy and we were made to feel valued as a client. Jargon was explained and we felt safe and secure knowing Olivia/Myerson were in charge of our purchase. Olivia was tenacious in chasing down answers and got us the keys to the property earlier than if our representative had sat back (which we appreciate so much).
Have already recommended Myerson to friends and wouldn't use another solicitor for future purchases.
Couldn't recommend highly enough.

Fantastic service
After five months of absolutely nothing with our previous solicitors, Myersons completed our house sale within 4 weeks. The level of professionalism was outstanding and we felt so grateful to have such a great team helping us. Olivia updated us daily, and was extremely efficient. We will be using them for all future legal processes and recommend them to everyone we know. Thank you so much Myersons!
