Powells Walton Solicitors Anmeldelser 

We had an excellent experience working with Tasleem at Powells Walton Solicitors during the sale of our property. She was highly professional throughout the entire process and incredibly efficient at every stage.

Tasleem demonstrated a thorough understanding of all the legalities involved, which gave us real confidence and peace of mind. She was always responsive, clear in her communication, and ensured everything progressed smoothly and without unnecessary delays.

We are grateful for her support and would highly recommend Tasleem at Powells Walton Solicitors to anyone looking for reliable and knowledgeable legal assistance.

Absolutely fabulous and attentive work on our chain house purchase with Tasleem and Date. Tasleem is particular was so attentive and very swift with all the checks. Our buyer had the worst conveyors in town sadly but Tasleem and Dante really prodded and pushed them to get the Completion over the line so we didn't lose the chain. I'd highly recommend them, if we ever need any legal services, we know where we will go. Thanks ever so much!

This is for Tasleem akhtar who assisted me in the purchase of my last few properties and gave me a fantastic service and advice
Hats off to Tasleem

We used PW as they came up on an online quote site with a competitive price for selling my father's house and they were a dedicated firm rather than a broker who would pass on the business to someone else. We had a fixed timeline of wanting to complete in 11 weeks as the buyers had already exchanged and Tasleem worked efficiently to meet this. Thank you.

Absolutely 5* service from Tasleem.

They pushed us to complete. Chased us when usually clients do the chasing. Tasleem was not fazed by the complex sale which involved an organisation rather than a private buyer.

They pulled off an exchange and completion for a sale and connected puechase inside the same day, when on annual leave (left instructions for colleagues).

But things went downhill after that in terms of sorting the balance, a total mess and lost all trust in their capabilities. Also they didn't pay the stamp duty even though they said it was settled. Avoid this firm!

We used Powells Walton Solicitors for our house sale & our solicitor
Tasleem Akhtar has been in touch via email and prompt phone calls, she has always been available to reassure me with anything I was worried about or struggled to understand. We came across many hurdles and she has been fabulous dealing with everything.
It’s definitely a company you can rely on & our solicitor has been very contactable, professional, helpful & provided a fast passed approach.
She has guided us every step of the way.
Thankyou to everyone involved for a smooth sale, especially Tasleem who has honestly been the best throughout.
Would definitely recommend the company & Tasleem!

Tasleem Akhtar handled the complex sale of my property with a high level of professionalism, often working outside of office hours and even during leave to ensure enquiries were dealt with promptly.

Communication throughout the process was first class, and she was always available to answer any questions, whether by email or phone.

I would highly recommend her services and would have no hesitation in using Powell Walton Solicitors again.

Tasleem was truly amazing. Felt like she was holding our hand through the whole process of our house sale. We have been so impressed we are going to use her for our purchase as well. Couldn't recommend her more highly.

I want to give a shout out to Powells Walton and in particular Dante Dawes who dealt with my case. They were second cheapest in a search I did on a comparison website for conveyancing solicitors but honoured their price match comparison (I preferred their reviews). A member of the Solicitors Regulation Authority too. The one not so good comment I'd read was about the delay in answering the phone - so I phoned them, was answered straightaway and the procedure explained to me. Everything they said was true, about tracking the case online, and indeed, being a long way from the property in question and myself made no difference. The only thing I needed to send by post was an authority form demanded by the mortgage company. I could get through to Dante easily by phone or message, and the one time it wasn't instantaneous, he got back to me as soon as he could. He was also willing to back me to the hilt against a totally disingenuous indemnity insurance policy that the other party insist I pay for - I went along with it only because I couldn't afford to lose the sale. Finally, was the invoice as I expected? Yes, 100%, with the fees exactly as stated. So a big thank you to Dante and Team 3.

Avoid Powells Walton & Co for conveyancing.

The service I received during the sale of my property was unacceptable from start to finish. Communication was consistently poor, deadlines were missed, and I had to repeatedly chase for the most basic updates. Emails and calls from myself, my estate agent, and my onward purchase solicitor were regularly ignored for weeks at a time.

My file sat without progress for several weeks under one fee earner, who appeared unfamiliar with the status of the matter and failed to return calls. Legitimate concerns about exchange and completion dates were dismissed — and later proved entirely justified.

When the file was reassigned, I was assured it would be prioritised. It wasn’t. A management pack that the firm already had in its possession was not sent to the buyer’s solicitor for weeks. I personally forwarded it three times. It was only sent while I was on the phone, which speaks volumes about the level of organisation involved.

The financial statement was also significantly delayed despite repeated chasing from my onward solicitor, who commented that they had never experienced such difficulty obtaining one. The lack of coordination and responsiveness placed my onward purchase and the entire property chain at serious risk.

During one call regarding outstanding work, I was told the solicitor was assisting the firm “as a favour” and did not have time to deal with the matter immediately. When I pointed out that this was a paid service and I expected a professional standard, the call was abruptly ended — effectively hanging up on me. I found this completely unprofessional.

Although the transaction eventually completed, it did so despite the firm’s conduct, not because of it. The experience was chaotic, stressful, and far below the standard expected of a regulated law firm. I was not the only party frustrated — estate agents and other solicitors involved also struggled to obtain responses.

I would not recommend this firm to anyone.

I received first class service from instruction to completion. Even with the buyer's solicitors dragging their feet Tasleem Akhtar went the extra mile to help get things over the line. The first solicitor ever to have replied to my emails on a Sunday. I have been involved in many property transactions using many different solicitors and this was the best service I have ever received. Very highly recommended.

Following up from my review selling my property, we were lucky enough to work with Tasleem again with the purchase of our property, she took over the reigns and resolved some problems and delays we were having, once again she was outstanding and we can not thank her enough

I was recommended Powell Walton’s through a mutual friend. Can honestly say the sale of my property was dealt with professionally and with ease. I was kept up to date with the sales procedures from the beginning to the actual signing of sale contracts. All in all tasleem and the team were helpful and easy to deal with. Thank you

Exceptional service from start to finish. Our conveyancer Dante was professional, efficient, and made a stressful process so much easier. Highly recommend to everyone.

What an amazing team, they made my experience so much better and explain everything to me in detail. Can't thank them enough. Would definitely recommend 🌟

They made a difficult experience much easier. Really helpful and willing to explain everything in detail. I would 100% recommend.

Although there were some banking issues in December, everything was sorted as smoothly as possible and once I had done my checks they were brilliant.

Thank you.

Powells were recommended by a close friend. The whole process was really smooth with Tasleem being great at completing the sale.

Professional and efficient conveyancing service with clear communication throughout. The process was smooth and stress-free. Would happily recommend.

I recently used Powells Walton Solicitors for my house purchase and the service was outstanding from start to finish. The team was professional, thorough and always acted in my best interests. Communication was excellent throughout the transaction – emails and calls were answered promptly, everything was explained clearly, and I was kept fully updated at every stage so I always knew what was happening. Even when other parties caused delays, they remained calm, proactive and focused on finding solutions, which really helped take the stress out of the process.
Their attention to detail and efficiency meant we were able to complete within a very reasonable timeframe, and I felt completely confident that all legal aspects were handled properly. I would highly recommend Powells Walton Solicitors to anyone buying or selling a property and will not hesitate to use them again in future.

Thank you for your help, really easy to work with!
