    Horrendous professionalism and poor communication. I had to deal with Terri (zero customer service terrible attitude) on the phone she informed me I'd receive 65% of damages, I said I thought it was 25% to which she again corrected me back to it being 65%. She then emails me a word doc which has caveats after caveat of additional fees, it also stated I would be entitled to 60% of the total damages. I then emailed her to inform her of the difference and based on that plus the caveats I will be looking at other firms. She then phoned me, I told her I'm out and busy but she proceed with the phone call to inform me they will be closing my case. How childish can you be, it was your error not mine.

    I have given one star due to a series of communication issues I had with Scott Rees. I escalated my complaints at the time with regards to conveyancing that Scott Rees were providing me. I detailed my complaint and all I got back were more excuses, no solutions and selective answering of my questions and complaints. I believe I was fairly giving them the opportunity to rectify the issues at the time, but they didn’t want to know. I have all the call logs and emails as evidence if Scott Rees are interested in where they went wrong. When I was in communication with Adnan he was responsive and efficient so thank you. However I was allocated a point of contact Aaron to deal with my questions etc. He really let us down at times and added to the stress of the process. I did say this to Aaron on many occasions and just got false promises back that he would improve. I was also led to believe my digital move portal would be regularly updated so I knew what was happening throughout the process. This didn’t happen and there was little to no communication from Aaron. I could barely get him on the phone when I phoned multiple times with questions and little to no communication from Aaron via email. We were new to this process and had questions we needed answering that unfortunately Aaron was not providing despite emailing, phoning and asking his colleagues to pass on messages. I am unable to recommend Scott Rees for conveyancing services.

    If I could give no stars I would. Fully appreciate people have had good experiences, unfortunately mine has not been. Shirt version: They sell the perfect story and outcome. Communication is simply non-existent. 3 years of constantly chasing and being fed mis information, not once during this time have the company responded to any emails sent to the solicitors or even to the @info address. No updates provided at all about case - other than costs. Each time I have had to ring for information and was painful each time as simply no one knew. Different handlers assigned with no benefit.

    The Scott Rees team dealt with my case for over a period of nearly a year, and I have no hesitation recommending them. Whenever I needed to speak to someone they were available and helpful and prompt, and have given me great advice throughout. Signing and accessing documents was easy, I was always clear about my responsibilities and each stage of the process was properly explained. Special thanks to Lucy and Lee who were there to help me throughout the process.

    Absolutely shocking communication. Never reply to emails, give updates or answer any questions. Finally settled for a measly sum for a case worthy of so much more because I was so sick of not getting replied to, not only has this meant I've missed out on a lot of money, but also Scott Rees & co themselves, very smart of them huh? If you're looking for a injury solicitor, I would highly advise against using this firm. As for other legal matters I can't comment as to what they're like because I've only used them for a car accident claim, but, if its anything like they handled my claim I would seek alternate companies for any legal matter.

    We bought our first property in July 2022. Scott Rees & Co Solicitors ware recommended by out mortgage advisor. I was aware of the reputation solicitors have so I was worried that these ones will not be any different. It turned out I was wrong. Abigail and Laura ware very helpful and responsive. Quick to reply to emails and any of the requests we had. Everything was done remotely. We did have couple of miscommunication issues at the beginning but it was very quickly addressed and sorted by the Scott Rees team. After that everything was dealt with in very professional way. If there was any delay it was because of the solicitor on the other end (I know this from the people we bought the house from as they ware not happy with they solicitor). Im not the easiest person to deal with but Abigail did deal with me in very professional way (and I know I’ve been a pain at times). Thank you very much to Abigail, Laura and all team. I can highlight recommend they service. We will definitely choose Scott Rees & C Solicitors again when the time comes to sell our house.

    I have nothing but praise for Scott Rees & Co Solicitors and in particular Rachel Topper who handled my claim. Rachel was able to finalise my claim in a professional and expedient manner. All my queries were answered promptly and she always gave sound advice. Rachel is a credit to Scott Rees and I highly recommend her.

    The Service was very poor and very slow when I first went with Scott Rees, but as soon as I was given Louise Dempsey everything changed, Louise kept me upto date with everything,And gave my previous Employers a kick up the bum to admit and accept liability for my claim.All above board of course.🙂 Louise succeeded getting me everything I was entitled to with my claim. Many Thanks Louise.

    Highly highly recommend. Gemma green is excellent and has helped me get the best possible outcome from my claim!

    My experience with Scott Rees solicitors was excellent. They guided me well, often Hywel the solicitor took his time to ring me personally and explain things to me in simple everyday language that I understood where terminology was complex. The other side was difficult but Hywel and his team invested their time and interest looking at details which eventually resulted in a successful outcome. It just goes to show if you are good at what you do even the opposition will bow. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who may need their services.

    We recently completed a sale and purchase with Louise Halsall of Scott Rees and can honestly say she gave the best service we could have ever hoped for. Louise was constantly in touch explaining every step and what was next in the process from both aspects of our file. As well as this she completed both the sale and the purchase for us super quickly! I would highly recommend using Scott Rees and could not be happier we had Louise in our side. Thank you Louise 🙏🏼

    I have been working with this firm on my claim since 2017, it has been a long tough ride. Some members of staff who have now left the firm weren't so helpful as others. But before i lost faith everything was sorted by Louise and her PA Elena. These 2 have been Absolutely Amazing. Really showed Scott Rees & Co as a Professional, helpful and caring company. They really went out of their way to help me, communication (which is key) was way more better than any other. They spoke to me whenever they had any updates and communicated everytime i called and never tried to get me off the phone. Reassuring me they will do the best they can for me as an individual rather than them as a company which meant a lot to me as I really needed thier help and support. They've been amazing and we have completed the claim, Finally. I seriously cant thank you 2 enough. If ever i need to use you for anything, im going to ask for the Dream Team of Louise and Elena. Amazing!! **12 out of 10**

    This company was great. Gemma and her assistants were professional throughout the whole process. My claim was a little more complicated than the usual but they got the job done, brilliant work by the whole team.

    Kailey Doyle handled our house purchase with the utmost patience and professionalism. Despite major issues with the sellers solicitors, she did everything she could to get purchase across the line and if it weren't for her the sale probably would've fell through due to the incompetence of the sellers solicitors. Highly recommend as she will do anything to get your case complete and was easily contactable, unlike other solicitors.

  • 5/5 Carl H. 1 year ago on Google
    Kailey Doyle was the case handler/Conveyancer that dealt with the purchase of my house. She was honestly amazing and I couldn’t thank her enough. Prior to Kailey taking over my file, I wasn’t too satisfied as I had been ignored and told the same thing several times which meant they hadn’t done anything with my file for some time. However I believe the solicitor had left the company therefore nothing was progressed for weeks. However, as soon as Kailey introduced herself and took over, it was a complete turnaround. She was very persistent with the sellers solicitors and kept me updated regularly. She always replied and responded in a good manor and even worked extra hours & days to ensure the completion was over the line. I wish I would have had Kailey dealing with my purchase from the start and I couldn’t recommend her enough.

    The lovely Gemma Green dealt with my personal injury claim in a professional, friendly, and courteous manner at all times, ably assisted by Claudia. Both ladies were always quick to answer any queries I had, and held my hand, (virtually) during wobbly times too. I contacted Scott Rees 3 years ago, after a very traumatic accident. I can honestly say that it was the best decision I made. The claim recently came to a very satisfactory conclusion and I will not hesitate to recommend Scott Rees & Co to friends, family and work colleagues. Thank you Gemma and keep up the good work, you make a difference.

    Scott Rees & Co Solicitors have been exceptional. I would recommend them to anybody who is looking to make a claim and wants to be assured they are being taken care off well. A special thank you to Rebecca Thorpe, Gary Milligan and the team for helping me obtain a settlement which I am extremely happy with and couldn't be more pleased with.

  • 5/5 Annareet K. 2 years ago on Google
    Louise Dempsey was really helpful with my case! She was lovely and supportive and understood all of my concerns. She explained the situation very clearly and gave advice suited to me. Out of everyone I spoke to in the firm, she was the most helpful and considerate!

  • 5/5 Ilona S. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolute star team. Kailey Doyle got our case of purchasing a house, and she was amazing. Answering my emails as soon as possible, we were not stressed at all, everything has been explained properly as we were first time buyer. Next property can come now :) , and definitely will go with them. Definitely will recommend them

  • 5/5 Sophie L. 1 year ago on Google
    We used Scott Rees to complete on our recent property. They have been the best solicitors out of the 4 we have used in the last 8 years. We found Sarah and Jack brilliant. They knew the answers, were very responsive and professional. We’ve never used the same solicitors twice as they have always been terrible in the past but we’ve defiantly use these guys again! Thanks to the whole team!

  • 5/5 Mahendra R. 2 years ago on Google
    Definitely recommend Scott Rees and Co. Used their services for conveyancing HelpToBuy equity loan on my property. They were professional, proactive when there were few unexpected delays from my lender and Target, and always provided me with timely updates with regard to completion. In particular, thanks to Sarah S who processed my redemption. Pleased to work with, definitely will use again and recommend others to.

  • 5/5 TRACEY K. 2 years ago on Google
    Lucy Ashbrook handled my claim very professionally but was always approachable and friendly whenever I had any queries. Very happy with the outcome and kept me informed at every step.

  • 5/5 Shane O. 2 years ago on Google
    We have bought and sold several properties over the years. Sarah Smyth at Scott Rees & co provided a great service, well ahead of other solicitors we have used. She responded quickly to all queries from us and from the sellers solicitor and she raised all the right questions. From start to finish it was the fastest purchase we have ever done (5 weeks). Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Jack S. 2 years ago on Google
    I contacted Scott Rees solicitors when my insurance let me down perusing compensations for a road traffic accident I had! The guys got on to the case and quickly got the ball rolling. They quickly and professionally answered any questions I had and before I knew it we had a settlement offer. Their fees where fair and reasonable and to give and example of how efficient they are my wife had an accident 6 months before me and still nowhere near a settlement! Thanks guys really appreciate your support!

  • 5/5 Abigail N. 2 years ago on Google
    Sarah was a pleasure to work with and beyond helpful. She explained the whole process to us and was always on hand to help whenever we needed it. Scott Rees and Co are lucky to have her!!! Would highly recommend. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

  • 5/5 Yongmin L. 2 years ago on Google
    I'd firstly like to thank Scott Rees & Co, especially mentioning my litigation executive Lee Givnan for being exceptionally professional and reliable, dealing with things in a prompt and professional manner at all times. Lee always ensured any correspondence were responded to in a timely manner, as well as always ensuring that I was up-to-date with any information needed. Lee's professionalism and the service provided was greatly appreciated and exceeded expectations. I couldn't recommend Scott Rees & Co enough.

    Nasreen was incredibly professional when assisting with the purchase of my property. She is highly proactive, focused and efficient. Due to her diligence and work ethic, the process was quick and trouble-free.
