Blake Morgan LLP

BL have been handling my mothers estate since her death over 2 years ago . They appointed an executor who shortly afterwards announced he was limiting his hours of work, which became one morning a week , and he also then wrote that he was retiring and to act as a consultant, limiting his hours even more . As a result the area he was supposed to be handling took over two years to get Irish probate . He insists remaining an executor even though he is rarely available .
The solicitor handling her estate doesn't reply to emails and seems to have lost interest in the "missing money ".
I wouldn't recommend Blake Laphorn unless it is a small estate with few complications .
I noted a comment about them being accountants ...well I repeatedly had to ask for a set of accounts.......and repeatedly for distributions ...
Also the fellow executor is based in Portsmouth and the solicitor in Oxford office ... so they can hardly discuss progress easily .

The sale of the house was well handled, very good .

As for the rest , if I don't contact them I don't hear from them , and even then it may be after several emails , and it further adds to the sense of loss when trying to move on .

Fantastic company, we use them for all of our conveyancing needs. The Associate that we work with (MZN) provides straight-forwards, down-to-earth and incredibly adroit advice. We feel that you get what you pay for and the fees charged by Blake Morgan are very reasonable considering the extremely high quality of legal services that they provide.

I have had the pleasure of dealing with Marilyn Neptune several times professionally and on the odd occasion personally (my dad sold a couple of houses) and I think her work ethic is nothing short of brilliant she is on it all the time!! She is an absolute asset to your company, keep up the fantastic work

I didn't go here but Google thinks I did so I'll say it looks nice from the outside and I hope they do a good job

Inordinately strange conversation with a young lady who discussed her cost (£2,500-£3,000) before learning any details about my case at all - in all honesty, how could she know how much time she was going to spend reading through my paperwork? She quoted ten hours' work for reading 3 deeds and two pages of A4 and looking at some maps. I'm rather relieved that she didn't take on my case to be frank because I would be worried that if it takes so long to understand, how much longer would it take to be effective?

Would not recommend their services. Uninterested telephonist, had to leave several messages before anyone called back, and had to wait nearly two months for an unhelpful answer to a very simple request regarding my will.

Really helpful lady retrieved parent will and gave good advice.

Don't go near these people, they will steal, lie and mislead u and steal ur money. Worse experience of my life. Use their position to take take take. They r really minus 5 star. They have been stealing from the vulnerable for at least 20 years. Someone needs to stop them and their illegal activities.
