Mixed Reviews for Morlings Solicitors
Morlings Solicitors have received a range of reviews from clients, with some expressing satisfaction with their service, while others have been disappointed.
Disorganised and Slow Service
Some reviewers have described their experience with Morlings as traumatic, citing painfully slow and disorganised service. One reviewer, Steph Sparks, gave the solicitor 1 star and warned others not to use the service. She mentioned that she had to chase the solicitor daily to get anything done and was unclear about the status of her case. Another reviewer, Martin Burton, was unhappy with the value for money, claiming that they were quoted 250 for a solicitor to sign their ID1 form.
Excellent Service from Certain Solicitors
On the other hand, many reviewers have praised the service they received from certain solicitors at Morlings. Authors Janet Marshall, Jack Emerson, Bill Stoneham, Rhys Williams, Lawrence Clay, Elena Jayne, Amanda Gladdish, Hannah Goode, Faye Blackwood, Camilla Stuart-MacDonald, and Russell Morling (yes, the solicitor himself!) all gave the firm 5 stars. They praised the solicitors' professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to their cases.
Difficulty Getting an Appointment
One reviewer, Babs Gladman, was disappointed with the difficulty she had getting an appointment. She phoned three times and was told it would take two weeks, but never received a response to an email or a callback.
Accessibility Issues
One reviewer, Hannah Goode, praised the firm's accessibility, mentioning that the firm was able to accommodate her wheelchair needs.
Conclusion
While Morlings Solicitors have received both positive and negative reviews, it seems that certain solicitors within the firm have provided excellent service to clients. However, some reviewers have experienced slow and disorganised service, and difficulty getting an appointment.
