I purchased a house a while ago, and Payne and Payne has really caused a Pain and PAIN. To allow a house to exchange , when the whole back end of the house does not have planning is really a solicitor that needs a full brain transplate with a brain of more than IQ 110. This obvious illustrate a man that doesn't do his job professionally. I was recommeded this person. And he acted like he was not on my side, and got on with the seller and seller solicitor like he was at some cocktail party. ! great for him connecting with old friends, however you are suppose still have your shirt and collar on and be acting for your client. NO SUCH LUCK, charged me a fortune. I faced years and much costs hoping to gain restrospective planning, and might be asked to rip the back end of house down. NOT Professional has caused years of stress. Go to the law society and continue to bang your own head against the wall with much speed till bloodied. Thanks PAIN AND PAIn ! read more
