Samantha updated my Will and Lasting Power of Attorney.
She was most helpful in listening to my requirements and suggesting the appropriate arrangements to suit my current situation.
I found the process effective and the changes were expedited very efficiently.

Didn’t feel like I was important in their operation. The speed of reply to my emails was sub par to say the least which lead me to turn to ringing them when I had a reply for one of their emails or had a question myself. However, on the phone it felt like they just wanted me off.

Friendly and helpful staff

We are in our 70s. This is the first time we needed a solicitor in order to buy our new property having lived at our previous property for near 40 years. Shannon and staff were so helpful. She talked us through the procedure and it felt less daunting.

I dealt with EMG Solicitors in the recent sale of my property. Shannon was a breath of fresh air compared to some of the solicitors I have dealt with in the past. She was very quick to respond to emails, very friendly and dealt with the conveyancing very efficiently. I would not hesitate to recommend and I am already considering using her again for the purchase of my next property.

My experience with EMG Solicitors was a positive one, with fair communication throughout the process of purchasing a residential property. The whole process from Instruction to Completion took 14 weeks.

I have been a client of EMG Solicitors for almost 9 years and I highly encourage anyone who requires a deputyship due to a lack of mental capacity in the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom to avoid this firm at all costs. I do not believe they will have your best interest at heart, nor do I believe they will respect or acknowledge your autonomy when living in a foreign jurisdiction, especially if you have proven to maintain mental capacity. Beliefs, values, morals, political, and religious views are subject to be disregarded, as I have found with mine. I can recall a recent instance where they tried to obtain confidential patient information from my psychiatrist without my knowledge and consent, albeit on unfounded concerns, with total disregard for local laws of the jurisdiction I live in while infringing upon my autonomy and privacy.
Comments about poor communication and work ethic are especially true and should not be disregarded. It is common for employees to take frequent leaves and holidays at the expense of the client. More often than not, I find response time to take more than 24 hours even if you are in need of assistance, no matter how dire this particular matter(s)/ situation is. If an employee is on holiday, a response time can take a week or longer. When they do finally email, be warned it will more than likely be at an inconvenient time, such as minutes before or after closing, which in cases like mine can be late into the night. The deputyship system itself is flawed and prone to abuse in the name of profit. Don't be fooled by the accolades.

Bavneet, Ashley and Lauren were fantastic on our sale/purchase. Showed great patience with us through what turned out to be a difficult process! Hugely appreciative of them for getting us there in the end. Can’t recommend EMG enough.
