Good value for money. Ahtsham worked well to get me completed quicker than expected and was very nice and friendly to deal with. Communication lacked a little, however I always received a timely response by email or phone call when I chased for an update. Process was relatively easy as a first time buyer.

Where do I begin? We had Tareh handle our case, and she did it so effortlessly well! No questions left unanswered, and no information left untold. We just had to sit back, relax and she did all the work!

The transaction went smoothly and Amina Ahmed at Shared Direction Conveyancing was outstanding, professional, efficient, and always reassuring. Her clear communication and dedication made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend her and the team at Shared Direction.

I am glad that I am over dealing with SDLT. I have been in so much stress dealing with them until even after my house was completed, they were still asking for mortgage deed to besigned despite of me sending this 4 times to them and spent a lot of money just to have these documents posted secured! I have been chasing my application myself and chased the local authority just for us to complete on time! Otherwise, we may have completed end of September! If you dont push them, they will never give you update or do any actions! Which is not supposed to be as you paid them for your application to be smoothly processed. However it wasnt the case! I am so disappointed as as a FTB I have to go through this and I have learned my lesson not to use them the next time! I should even be paying myself as I was mostly doing all the chasing! Even the mortgage offer from the Lender I have to contact them myself just for them to receive this on time! I would avoid them specially the Birmingham branch. Still giving 2 stars as atleast my application was completed but LOADS OF CHASING!!!!!

I rarely leave reviews, but I feel compelled to share my experience with Shared Direction Conveyancing. I found the handling of my case incredibly frustrating from start to finish. Communication was poor, responses were vague or dismissive, and I was left chasing answers to very reasonable questions — particularly around timeframes for exchange and completion. This caused unnecessary stress when trying to coordinate removals and time off work.
What disappointed me most was the complete lack of empathy or accountability from my case handler, who often came across as rude and uninterested. Despite all parties in the chain working toward an agreed completion date, it was only thanks to the intervention of my mortgage broker and the housing association that we managed to get there — not my own solicitor. I also felt misled over a £90 Fee Protection Scheme charge that I wasn’t clearly informed I’d be opted into.
As someone who works in a high-end client-facing role, I know what good service looks like — and unfortunately, this fell well below that standard. I hope this review encourages a rethink in how clients are treated going forward, and encourages you to spend your hard earned money elsewhere!
