Emily Briers has been great throughout our sale and house purchase. Emily was always quick to respond, kept us updated at every stage, and managed everything brilliantly, especially as we were working... See more

We are really pleased with all the help, communication and updates received from our conveyancer Paige Daly.
I would definitely recommend her and she was professional from start to finish
Megan Jones provided an amazing service. I’ve recently used Conveyancing Direct for the purchase of my house. Megan was always available and happy to answer any questions promptly. Definitely recommend!
If I could give zero stars I would! Luckily it’s not us that used this company. It’s our buyer.
No chain property that’s taken more than 5 months to sell. We have been waiting for this uselsss company for weeks. If you are unfortunate enough to use them AND you get Bartholemew as your conveyancer than I feel sorry for you! He just ignore emails from other solicitors. Doesn’t bother to do the things he’s supposed to. He’s obviously just not very good and maybe it’s too much for him. Avoid them at all costs!
How this company has 4.4 stars and rates as excellent when almost a quarter of their reviews are one star is actually laughable!
I would not recommend this firm.
My sale eventually completed, but the process was unnecessarily stressful from start to finish. Communication was poor throughout, with repeated chasing required just to obtain updates on the progress of the transaction.
There were several occasions where I felt matters were not being proactively managed, resulting in delays and additional frustration. An issue also arose during the transaction which was later acknowledged by the firm as an oversight on their part, yet I still found myself having to spend a significant amount of time pursuing a fair resolution.
What was most disappointing was the amount of effort required to resolve matters. Rather than focusing on the sale itself, I felt I was constantly having to chase for updates, seek clarification and challenge charges that I believed were unfair in the circumstances. Although a partial refund was eventually agreed following escalation, this only came after considerable back-and-forth.
Buying and selling property is stressful enough without having to manage your conveyancer as well.
Based on my experience, I would not use this firm again and would advise others to consider alternative conveyancing providers.
Excellent, efficient service. Keep us up to date with the process, quick to respond to queries. Claudia Bediako was a pleasure to work with.
We have just completed on our house using the services of Conveyancing Direct with a special mention of Daniel Hendriks, who acted on our behalf efficiently and kept us updated throughout the process. He was also very friendly and approachable and did his best to answer my questions, it was a pleasure doing business with him.
I found the level of service I received from Mr Happy Khumbeni deeply disappointing. Throughout the transaction, there were repeated communication issues, delays, mistakes and a lack of proactive management at key stages of the process.
What was particularly frustrating was the feeling that matters could have been handled far more efficiently with basic organisation, attention to detail, and common sense. A property purchase is one of the most significant financial transactions most people undertake, and I expected a much higher standard of professionalism and coordination.
Massive credit must go to Simon and Mr Cosson, whose support and intervention helped ensure the transaction ultimately completed. Their responsiveness and commitment stood in stark contrast and gave me confidence when it was most needed.
Conveyancing Direct as a company appears to have capable and dedicated people within its team, which makes this experience all the more disappointing. I hope this feedback reaches senior management and is taken seriously, as inconsistent service from individual case handlers like Mr Happy Khumbeni has the potential to damage the reputation of an otherwise good firm.
In few words: clueless, useless, incompetent!
Rachel was great with help getting my sale and purchase through as quickly as possible. She was always there when I called and helpful with any queries I had throughout the process.
Excellent Service throughout the buying process of a new build. We dealt with Paige Turner who was brilliant.
Took us much more longer than what was expected. But even with lots of frustrations we understand all the wait was productive. If you want all things to be done 100% properly than Christian Peterson and his team are the ones you need. To have all done how should be will take longer but will be completed .Many thanks for being with us during this journey.
Thorough checks as necessary and always had my best intentions at the forefront of any checks and decisions to be made. My first house fell through after a prolonged period of time but Jenny at conveyancing pushed through my second house very quickly and was always available with quick responses by either phone call or emails. Would definitely recommend.
A huge thank you to
Dominique Farauanu for representing me in the purchase of my property.
I don't think it could have been handled any better from start to finish,
Dominique represented me with the utmost professionalism, with constant updates and quick replies to any queries I had, Dominique made the whole process pass so smoothly and stress free.
I highly recommended the service provided by Conveyancing Direct Property Lawyers.
The process of applying for arranging a mortgage has got unnecessarily complex and laborious over the last few years. Mainly around confirming identity. I had to formally confirm my identity 3 times in different places. This should be much more streamlined and different organisations should share data. The introduction of a government digital ID should do away with this stupid duplication effort which is just a waste of time. Also this workflow is ideally suited to being replaced by AI
Saying all that the staff that ran with the process were friendly and efficient (even though the process is broken)
Never knew what to expect from an online conveyancing company, so worth a try. I was impressed with the ease in which I was able to conduct my business and apart from posting letters, all from the comfort of my own home. Ali Hassan was my property lawyer who I have to complement on his effectiveness in ensuring all activities required remained on track. Making the whole process for me personally stress free.
Fully recommend. Ley Gueye Diallo is fabulous. Shes a lovely lady and dealt with my late mothers house sale. Great communication, everything done and chased seamlessly. Ley is such an asset to conveyancing direct. Thank you Ley, you have made a really tough situation so much easier.
Megan Jones at conveyancing direct was very helpful and kept me updated throughout the whole process. Would recommend to anyone moving home.
Cerys made everything easy for us! Any email that we sent and any question we had got answered promptly and she was great at confirming everything for us and helping us through our remortgage process!
Reliable....and trusted service dealing with the sale of our home and then the purchase of our new home. Great service from Poppy Newcomb
This company put my mind at rest as this was my 1st adventure buying a house , tom was a true gent with great advice , i was kept up todate threw the process , will use them again for sure.
