Contacted Raworths from overseas to complete a will. Was sent forms (by Peter) to complete and asked to verify my identity via notary. Filled out forms and got notary documents within a few days and emailed everything back. Never heard a thing in response. Contacted again, no response. Don’t waste your time with this unprofessional firm who don’t have the decency to get back to you.

I recently needed to find an employment solicitor at short notice and in difficult circumstances. The professionalism and level of service provided by Raworths was outstanding, with immediate response at all hours of the day and evening. As well as being technically excellent, the solicitor provided valuable personal advice and help throughout the process. I would have no hesitation in recommending anyone looking for high quality service from professional and friendly staff to consider using Raworths.

I recently used the services of Raworths Solicitors for the first time having previously used a leading firm of solicitors in Leeds for many years. The service I received at Raworths was first class. Without exception all the staff were polite, helpful and professional. The transaction was completed with speed and efficiency and I was kept informed and regularly updated on progress. I would have no hesitation to recommend anyone looking for high quality service from professional and friendly staff to consider using Raworths Solicitors. I know I will need their services in the near future and feel

I am shocked at how much this place has gone down hill in recent times. Though providing excellent service on a number of previous property purchases and sales, the contrast was stark when I wrote recently to ask for documents to be sent to another firm under the new GDPR rules.
The advised deadline under the legislation passed and not even a reminder letter from another solicitor prompted them into action.
I rang twice to complain but the person I needed to speak to was ‘not available’. What’s worse is that she didn’t call back - on either occasion - very unprofessional.

Having had an unsatisfactory experience with one of their solicitors, who sent me a very impertinent and unprofessional email , I took the trouble to email his head of department and the head of the partnership. Neither had the good manners nor the professionalism to acknowledge or respond to my communication. This firm were once highly regarded in the profession locally but sadly do not have their eye on the ball these days.
