AVOID

AVOID - The attitude and customer service of these solicitors is beyond apalling. They do not respond to queries unless it is on their terms, if you ask them to treat something as a priority they want additional money. We ported our mortgage and because they did not understand the process for Halifax even though it was clearly written they decided to withold half of our profit from the sale and as this was 2 weeks before christmas we did not receive the funds until January. They speak to you like you are a child and are very patronising - They really are shockingly rude and unhelpful - Avoid at all costs!!!!

Reply from Eric Robinson Solicitors

Thank you for your review. We note your comments, but as explained at the time, in a conveyancing transaction we are required to give an undertaking that any existing mortgage will be redeemed in full on completion. In your case, while the position regarding the early repayment charge (ERC) was understood, we were unable to obtain definitive confirmation from your lender that it was not payable. This created a risk that the mortgage would not be fully redeemed, potentially placing us in breach of our undertaking. To resolve this pragmatically, we agreed to retain the ERC in our client account rather than send it to the lender. This ensured the mortgage could be safely redeemed while allowing us to release the funds to you promptly once confirmation was received. Following completion, we monitored the position and, as soon as the Land Registry confirmed the charge had been discharged, we transferred the retained funds to you the same day at no additional cost. We appreciate the timing over the Christmas period was unfortunate, as our office closed shortly after completion before confirmation had been received. We reviewed the matter immediately upon reopening and acted without delay. As to your other comments, this was clearly not ever our intention, and we are sorry if you felt that way. It is appreciated this was a very stressful situation, especially at the time of year in question, and we are very glad to have been able to achieve the resolution you required. Feedback is important to us and we continually use it to review and improve our service, always aiming to resolve any concerns and maintain the high levels of client satisfaction reflected in our review ratings and the overwhelming majority of positive feedback we receive from our clients. We also operate a comprehensive complaints procedure, details of which can be found on our website should you wish to raise any concerns formally.

Would highly recommend

Miya was great to deal with at Eric Robinson Solicitors. Everything was explained to me clearly and she always came back to me quickly. We had a situation with our buyers solicitors where they were being very slow. Miya worked really well with our agent to push this through in the timeframe that we needed. Would highly recommend.

Highly recommended

Miya at Eric Robinson recently supported us through both our property sale and purchase. She was consistently professional, courteous, and exceptionally helpful. Her guidance was clear, her communication timely, and she kept us fully informed throughout what became a particularly challenging exchange. Thanks to Miya’s diligence and proactive approach, our chain was able to exchange and complete within a very tight timeframe. We would highly recommend Eric Robinson Solicitors.

Impressive Service from Michelle and the Team for House Buying and Selling

We have bought and sold through Michelle & the team at Eric Robinson in the last 6 months, and we have repeatedly been impressed at their diligence, persistence, attention to detail and positivity. On a number of occasions we feel Michelle went the extra mile in finding solutions to the hurdles we faced. They communicated brilliantly with us, and with the estate agents. And the result is that house buying and selling was a positive and not-too-stressful process. We would highly recommend.

Eric Robinson Winchester - disappointing experience

Interacting with Eric Robinson Winchester Miya Smith was really disappointing. We were selling our house and Eric Robinson were the Buyer's solicitor. Our own conveyancer mentioned multiple times that he was receiving no replies from ER Winchester to his emails. Miya also missed the fact we had two title deeds so this introduced delay whilst she corrected that and she wasn't quick. Then there was what appeared to be the let's make simple things more complicated approach - Miya alighted on an exonerated issue in one of the title deeds and insisted on an indemnity insurance. I am pretty sure it came from her and not the bank. We hadn't paid out in the 31 years we had lived in the property which is pretty strong evidence it really was exonerated. Our neighbour also had never paid anything either and had identical clauses in their title deeds. So Miya's over zealous approach on a non issue caused a lot of email traffic and discussion around indemnity policies which no one needed. The conveyance went through in the end but I would refuse to deal with anyone in future using ER. Oh and yes, I did try and contact ER Winchester but they never bothered to reply so hence this review.

Reply from Eric Robinson Solicitors

We are sorry that you feel disappointed with your experience. However, as the buyer’s solicitors in this transaction, our duty was to act solely in our client’s best interests and to carry out appropriate legal due diligence.

Where a title matter is identified, we are professionally obliged to advise on any potential risk — even if it has not caused difficulty in the past. The absence of historic enforcement does not remove the underlying legal position or future risk. In such circumstances, indemnity insurance is a common and proportionate way of protecting a buyer and their lender.

While we cannot comment on specific details due to confidentiality obligations, we are satisfied that the matter was handled properly and in accordance with our professional duties. Our client was kept fully informed throughout and was very happy with the service provided.

If you wish to raise any concerns formally, please contact us directly and we will review them in accordance with our complaints procedure.

Samantha Gilby - the best solicitor in town!!

We used Eric Robinsons conveyancing department for the sale of our house and purchase of a new property. Our Solicitor was Samantha Gilby from the Bitterne office. Samantha was amazing. She was constantly on the ball, always contactable and reacted to queries very quickly. She was clear and concise with all the information. Buying and selling a property is very stressful and there is a lot of information that needs to be understood. Samantha made the whole process flawless, smooth and easy. There were no doubts from us whatsoever with the work that Samantha did for us. She made the whole process easy to understand and we totally trusted that she would get the job done. It's obvious that she works very hard and has her clients interests as her priority. I have nothing but praise for Samantha. She is a credit to your company and I do hope her work is recognised and duly rewarded.

Not kept updated

Not kept updated. Sent info stating could get regular updates every step of the way via app…no updates at all on it. Important legal document lost after being physically handed to receptionist, causing unnecessary stress to an already stressful situation. Advised this would be highlighted to ‘partners’…was it…who knows. Would I recommend…no

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your experience and the concerns you have raised.

This is certainly not reflective of the usual standard of service we strive to provide, as evidenced by the overwhelmingly positive reviews we consistently receive from our clients.

From our understanding, these concerns were not raised directly with the case handler, and we would always encourage clients to bring any issues to our attention at the earliest opportunity so they can be addressed promptly. From our initial investigations, we understand that you were notified from the outset that unfortunately you would not receive updates from the app and that this should not be relied upon. Instead, you were provided with regular updates from the case handler throughout the process. It is accepted that a document went undelivered by a third-party postal service (DX) between offices for which please accept our further apologies. Best endeavours were made to find the missing document and an apology was given at the time.

Feedback is important to us, and we continually use it to review and improve our service, always aiming to resolve any concerns and maintain the high levels of client satisfaction reflected in our review ratings and the overwhelming majority of positive feedback we receive from our clients. We also operate a comprehensive complaints procedure, details of which can be found on our website.

Months of chasing and missed deadlines

Paid £852 upfront for will work. Months of chasing, missed deadlines, and nothing delivered.

We made a formal complaint on 20 Jan 2026 to Matthew Large and were promised a substantive response by 9 Feb 2026.

Another deadline they set themselves and missed, despite us following their official complaints process via their Dispute Resolution Department.

This followed a recent bereavement and the lack of compassion and communication has been, and continues to be, distressing and harmful.

Avoid at all costs.

Superb service from start to finish

I used the Chandlerford branch of Eric Robinson, and delighted to say they offered a superb service from start to finish, they kept me informed on proceedings with the property sale every step of the way, best Solicitor firm I have ever dealt with, and would have no hesitation in using again or recommending. Many Thanks to Terry, Kristen, Emma and Megan ***** Service

We received outstanding service from Chantelle. Very quick responses to all emails, a fast and accurate quote, keeping us updated at every stage and willing to chase third parties if they were dragging their feet.

Fantastic advice and explanation of everything that I could not determine.

Poor communication and unacceptable delays at a very difficult time

I contacted this firm to prepare a new will after my husband passed away. From the outset, the process was slow and required constant chasing for updates. Despite meetings where my instructions were discussed, details were not properly recorded and I was asked to provide the same information more than once.

Communication was extremely poor, with long periods of no response, even when I explained there was urgency due to travel plans. I ultimately had to leave the UK without being able to sign my will and, since chasing for an update, I have heard nothing further.

One email sent on the 11th of December 2025 to my solicitor, still has had no response as of the 18th January 2026 a total of 38 days (and counting).

Given the sensitive circumstances, the lack of care, organisation, and follow-through was deeply disappointing. I have lost all trust in the service and will be taking my instructions elsewhere.

Flat sale

Had a faultless experience with Eric Robinson. Emma was great throughout the transaction and was excellent at explaining points of the sale and allaying fears of blips along the way. Megan was great with the communication and the finalising of the transaction. The process was quick and seamless. Will use again in the near future
