Cunningtons Opiniones 

My wife and I can not find fault with the service that Gemma Hopkins and her team provided for us. They were pro-active in all aspects of our move and always courteous and helpful on the phone. We have recommended Gemma and her team unreservedly to our friends should they decide to move. If we could have given 5+ stars we would have.

Gemma Hopkins acted on my behalf at her previous firm and was absolutely delighted that she was able to act on my behalf again for the sale of the flat I had previously brought and the purchase of a house with my partner.

Gemma Hopkins is extremely efficient, knowledgeable and thorough. Gemma and her assistant Gemma Hill worked extremely hard and kept both the sale and purchase running at the same pace. Their communication was excellent and we received regular updates. We would highly recommend. Thank you 😊

From start to finish Cunningtons were excellent - prompt, professional and even went out of their way to explain things in great detail when we had any questions. We have used Cunningtons twice now and wouldn’t even consider any other solicitor should the need arise again.

1st time using Cunningtons. They were recommended by a friend and we will certainly recommend them for anyone interested in moving home. Gemma & Gemma 2 were great through all the ups and downs and kept us well informed all the way through.

We needed an ID check as we’re purchasing a property. Jenson was really friendly and efficient, he dealt with us quickly and didn’t charge us a ridiculous amount, would recommend

I had not used Cunnington's Solicitors before but I must say they are very professional and I received an excellent service from Charlotte and her team on the long journey to complete on my mums house sale. Would definitely use again in the future.

Cunningtons kept us updated all the way. Always available to answer any queries we had. Mr Palaniappan from start to Finnish of the sale of my house so helpful and explained everything.
I highly recommend.

We cannot fault the work and dedication Palaniappan had during our purchase. He guided us through the process as first time buyers, and appreciate his kindness and patience.

Sarah was excellent, very responsive and went above and beyond to ensure the chain moved and we had a good experience.

Sarah was excellent to deal with, dealt with all questions quickly and was always helpful.
The idea that the funds from a house sale will be paid out by cheque unless you specify differently (& pay a premium) seems ludicrous in this day and age but as that was my only real criticism I would happily recommend them to anyone selling a house.
Excellent service

Generally we had good service from Cunningtons. Fiona and Sarah were very good when I managed to speak to them. The process was very drawn out- over 7 months with no chain, but it was mostly due to Leasehold enquires so can't blame them too much for that. However there was one issue which I didn't think much of. The flat we were buying was in a block three floors high. Above a certain height more paperwork is needed. Cunningtons refused to deal with our purchase as they said it was too high. I had checked that it was under the required height for more paperwork and it was. However I discovered that Cunningtons impose their own lower limit as they are risk averse. So beware of this fact if buying a flat. It meant we had to use a different company for the purchase as a lot had already been done on our sale. This gave us extra costs. On the plus side the two solicitors did work together fairly efficiently. I think using Cunningtons for a house sale is not a problem and we have done this before very successfully but its not so easy with flats so check first.

Had a very good experience with Cunningtons. They kept us up to date with all aspects of selling our house. Gemma Hopkins who we dealt with, was very proactive and helped in a couple of sticky moments as we were moving abroad and needed to time it correctly. She even took time on her days off to check on the progress and assist us. She made everything work out just fine for us in the end.

Kate/Deb and the team were very helpful and always communicated swiftly in our house sale
Have spoken to friend who also had good dealings with the Cunningtons teams at Braintree and Chelmsford

We couldn’t have asked for a better solicitor than Rachel for the purchase of our first home. From start to finish, she was incredibly professional, clear, and reliable. As first-time buyers, the process felt overwhelming at times, but Rachel always explained everything in a way that made sense without overloading us with unnecessary jargon.

She was calm, reassuring, and always kept us informed at the right times — never leaving us in the dark but also never bombarding us with updates we didn’t need. Even when things became stressful behind the scenes, Rachel handled it all with confidence and made sure we were protected every step of the way.

We truly felt like we were in safe hands with her. Her clear communication, efficiency, and genuine care made all the difference. We are so grateful for everything she did to help us through what is such a significant milestone. Thank you, Rachel and Cunningtons — we would absolutely recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy, skilled solicitor!

Great team, very prompt, and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

The initial meeting went well and I felt we had established a mutual understanding of how the LPA process would work between us. I was very wrong. A couple of incidents occurred when I lost trust and confidence in the firm. I asked what fees they would want to deduct from the full fees already paid to them, if we were to terminate this relationship. Here again, there was a total lack of clarity. And so, I wrote to clarify my understanding of the deductions they would make and their reply was in the affirmative. I had a shock when I received a cheque after their deductions. My complaint did not work from my perspective; a typical wordy and detailed email that would bamboozle anyone, I think. A very disappointed and frustrated client. I am now very weary of hiring solicitors. Any tips out there?

I recently worked with Sarah Tuck and her team for the conveyancing on the sale of my property, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the service they provided. From start to finish, the process was handled with exceptional professionalism, clear communication, and efficiency.

Sarah and her team were always available to answer any questions, kept me informed at every stage, and ensured everything progressed smoothly and without unnecessary delays. Their attention to detail and proactive approach gave me complete confidence throughout the transaction.

What could have been a stressful experience was made seamless and straightforward thanks to their expertise and support. I highly recommend Sarah Tuck and her team to anyone looking for reliable, responsive, and highly competent conveyancing professionals.

My partner and I approached Cunningtons to review a prenuptial agreement before our wedding. We had consulted with three different firms and ultimately chose Cunningtons, as they assured us—prior to taking payment—that the agreement could be completed within our required timeframe.

In my understanding, a solicitor's role is to provide sound legal advice and guide clients through the process. After receiving the draft agreement, our solicitor initially stated that it appeared fair, suggesting only a few minor amendments. As I did not feel those changes were necessary, I requested that we proceed with the agreement as it stood. At that point, the solicitor refused to sign off on the document. As a result, we were left without a completed agreement, despite having paid for the service. I am now forced to seek assistance from a different solicitor, incurring additional costs.

Based on my experience, I feel the advice and service provided by this firm were inadequate and misleading. I would not recommend their services to others.

I was extremely happy with the Conveyancing service provided by Cunningtons. Charlotte and her team responded promptly to all queries and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

I have used Cunningtons now twice (unfortunately for probate). I dealt with Jane Adams both times and she was absolutely brilliant. Warm and caring along with her professionalism made probate as easy as possible. I would highly recommend Cunningtons and especially Jane. They give a fixed fee also which they stick too which is always good. Thank you so much Jane, Victoria.
