New Homes Law Anmeldelser 

I’ve just exchanged on my first home and New Homes Law have made it so smooth and easy for me. I felt kept up to date every step of the way and their team are always available and happy to help no matter how many questions I had.

Had a great experience with new homes! No complaints - from start to finish very helpful

Great service

Always go above and beyond

All the staff were fantastic. Very very helpful.

I cannot begin to put into words the sheer amount of stress, problems, time wasted, costs incurred and detriment to my mental health this firm have caused both during them dealing with my original purchase of a new build house in 2020/2021 and now 5 years later when their failings are blocking my remortgage.

During the transaction wrong documents were repeatedly sent (wrong figures, using shared ownership docs for a normal purchase), responses to queries took ages and responses unclear, repeated lies that they had not received documents from a 3rd party when they had, exchange and completion simply not being progressed until a different colleague intervened, and topped off on completion day by an incorrect final invoice being sent trying to overcharge me.

They then later messed up my land registry first registration, failing to make and progress the application in good time and missing paperwork meaning it took 4 years.

Finally, while trying to remortgage and using a different conveyancer, it's come to light that NH Law failed to complete various activities and send us basic documentation (failing to activate NHBC warranty and send policy, not sending legal pack, not sending planning documents, not providing building control details or completion certificate) all causing significant delays, cost and stress while it remains unresolved. Multiple attempts to contact supervisors, client care staff or management to help and later to escalate have been ignored. It feels very much like they know what a mess they've made of certain cases and simply go into denial/lying/ignore mode in an attempt to cover their own backs. The accounts here of them deleting negative reviews is particularly insidious.

Good service, very satisfied.

The best solicitor I have ever used I couldn’t recommend them more highly I will definitely use them again.
Danielle was so helpful throughout the whole process.

New Homes Law is completely unreachable and caused us extreme stress. They ignored every email from both the buyer’s and seller’s solicitors and required multiple chases, and their phone lines go straight to voicemail. Solicitors went on leave without any notice or handover, totally disregarding exchange dates. Estate agent and other law firms involved have reached out multiple times to express their concerns regarding NHL's incompetence but was ignored by NHL. Our seller threatened to pull out of the sale on multiple occassions due to their unresponsiveness. Their lack of accountability nearly ruined our entire move—do not use this firm.

Note: Since posting my last review, NHL has attempted to take down the review twice in one week, which is ironic given this was the more responsive than they ever did during the actual conveyancing process. My intention is to share the views given to me by other professionals – not just my own views.

Quick and accurate service. Very professional and systematic.

This is now my second one star review for NHL, which should tell you everything. My first review covered the appalling service I received during my shared ownership purchase — easily one of the worst professional experiences I’ve ever had. After a year of zero communication from them, delays, and total disorganisation, I completed the purchase and tried to move on.
Fourteen months later, I’ve been hit with a bill for nearly £700 for an unsettled service charge from before I even owned the property. Only now has it become clear just how badly NHL mishandled my case. They failed to ensure the service charge account was settled on completion, and they failed to ensure the retention was held until it was resolved — basic, fundamental steps in conveyancing that any competent firm would treat as standard. A genuinely shocking level of incompetence.
What makes this even more infuriating is their behaviour since. Instead of answering straightforward questions about missing documentation pertaining to those accounts, they immediately tried to shift blame onto the seller’s solicitors for holding the retention for 12 months — which is completely normal. Then they attempted to excuse themselves by saying the case handler had left the firm, as if that somehow absolves them of responsibility for their own negligence. And now, they’ve simply stopped responding altogether.
It’s astonishing to witness a firm operate with this level of incompetence, avoidance, and disregard for their clients. The way they conduct themselves feels more like a back street operation than a regulated legal service. Their so called “customer charter” is meaningless in practice.
I would strongly urge anyone considering NHL to avoid this firm like the absolute plague. My experience has been nothing short of disastrous.
And by the way, the reason there are so few one star reviews showing is because NHL flag them all and use every tactic in the book to get them taken down. They
tried to do that with the first review i left.

No complaints with new homes law, they’ve been really efficient. Maybe at the start communication wasn’t quite what I hoped- just emails and not always replied to that quickly and hard to get through on the phone, but I communicated how nervous and unsure about the whole thing that I felt, and they really responded. Spoke to several people on the phone at different points, and all really friendly and helpful. Bills were itemised in detail, so everything was transparent, plus they were happy to explain costs when I didn’t understand (which was a lot of the time!) Overall I found them very efficient and professional and friendly and trustworthy.

Absolute fantastic service, the team are so professional ,freindly and with excellent work ethic.Honestly I highly recommend the team !! Danielle and her team were a pleasure to work with.Keep it going can't thank you enough !!

Great firm to work with. James was a lot of help!

Everything they promised they have done. it is a smooth ride with them and the next time i need a lawyer i will be using them again.

Everyone who I dealt with was very helpful. They made buying my first home stress free. Would recommend to anyone!

Really good service, would recommend.

Very professional and quick

Great service, would highly recommend!

New Homes law flagged my last review for "containing defamatory content" aka negative truthful statement.
If that doesn't tell you all you need to know I don't know what does.
In fact that tells a better story than my original review.
Date is approx as it has been on going for almost a year.
