Goughs Solicitors - Melksham

Amy Hatchman

I found myself in need of a solicitor in early 2020 and Goughs was recommended to me by a previous client.
Having only dealt with solicitors for a house purchase I was unsure what to expect, but I found Ross the epitome of professional. He was calm, understanding, professional, and empathetic to my situation. He offered sensible solutions and took on board my thoughts and concerns.

I would have no hesitation recommending Goughs.

The worst solicitors we’ve come across! Between the 2 of us this is house sale/purchase number 6 and Goughs solicitors are the worst ones out there. We had the simplest possible case for them to handle: no onward chain selling to first time buyers, doesn’t get any easier. It took us 5 months to complete. They are extremely slow, to the point where no one (buyers, sellers, estate agents) could get hold of them for weeks at a time. They’ve been exaggerating all the points to buyers which misled them hugely during the process. They’ve raise imagined issues that they wanted resolved and once it’s been weeks into them requesting unrealistic stuff they’d eventually dropped all the requests. They’ve been late with drafting documents and processing everything. We nearly dropped the sale because things were being handled so badly. Gemma Molloy was the buyers solicitor for this case and it left us with the feeling that we would recommend against using these solicitors ever again to all our friends and family. There has also been a case that we got quotes from them and prices are extremely inflated, incomparable and for this quality of service it is just a rip off. Do not use Goughs ever!

Received a quote for transfer if equity. They were over £1000 more expensive than other quotes received. Compared breakdown of their quotes with others and they were adding at least £150 extra to each fee e.g. Land registry! Shop around guys there are far cheaper options for the exact same service!!!

Ross has always been very fair, considered & professional when I have been involved in family matters. I have always had implicit trust in Ross insofar as he will always consider the needs of the child first and advise accordingly. I have always felt very secure knowing Ross will handle matters to alleviate the pressure and the distress court proceedings can inflict on everyone involved . I would not hesitate to depend on Ross to find and implement the best outcome for everyone in family matters. Ross has always be very responsive and has kept me well-informed throughout the process.
Ross provides a second-to-none service and respects financial limits whilst supporting & listening respectfully to his client. Thank you Ross for your commitment to fairness.

Ross guided me through quite a difficult and challenging divorce position. At all times he was very professional, responsive and provided expert advice and guidance. Would highly recommend his services.

I had an appointment with Isabel, one of Goughs partners and I was so pleased with her service. First of all I almost missed my appointment as I had confused the dates and days and on the day and time she called me and reminded me of my appointment and rather managed to fix me in before her next client. I was so pleased because this was really an important appointment that I could not afford to miss and did not miss it at all. Thank you for your service.

Amy Moran was so helpful and friendly. We moved recently, Amy kept us updated throughout. Thank you so much to Amy , Charlotte and the lovely lady on reception who were all amazing.

I have only good things to say about my experiences with Goughs, especially when I found out that the details of a previous marriage weren't as they should be, that's the joy of a cheap online divorce I suppose!! Thinking I was up to my eyes in trouble I gave Ross at Goughs a call, he immediately put my mind at rest and sorted the problems without fuss and in a very professional manner. At last I thought, I'm sorted to get on with life with my new wife until she upped sticks and left after I was involved in an accident that left me disabled. She didn't sign up for living with a cripple!!
Without any hesitation I called Ross to sort out the Divorce!! 2 divorces sorted within a few months, that must be a record.
For me to go back a second time speaks volumes, I would not hesitate to recommend Ross & the team to anyone. Very professional at every stage.
