Wills/power of Attorney

We had a couple of meetings for our Wills and Powers of Attorney and were pleased with the thorough explanation of our options and answers to our many questions.

Do not trust or believe get everything in writing and get the full costs first

I had separated from my ex partner in September 2025 Forbes was recommended to me as they deal with TOLATA having called them I spoke to Tom and explained my case he quoted £1800 plus vat and assured me t that I’m entitled to a 50 percent split On contacting them again 3 weeks later I spoke to Dawn Gardner and explained my situation the price went up £2000 plus vat Being in a desperate situation that I was in going to lose financially a lot of money I had no choice as to trust them how wrong could be in doing this one letter was sent and a chaser left was sent as there was no response to the first letter £5000 in and they wanted another £30.000 pounds plus more to put the charge on the property Having called another 2 more solicitors for further advice they both told me the full circumstances and told me there honest opinion that I will not win as my name is not on the deeds there and there is no way a judge would take your side ? Why was this not explained I feel like you have took more advantage of me than my ex partner and led me on to believe that I have a case

Worst experience I have had they mis advise and make your case worse and even charge just for a phone consultation really bad experience I have moved my business elsewhere and would not recommend them, they have lost their family friendly feel and no longer talk to you like humans go elsewhere

Excellent Mr Ian Dunbar

Had a quick chat with Mr Ian Dunbar of the paralegal and crime dept, who was not only very professional, but also very empathetic and understanding of my situation.He gave me the facts and put my mind at ease in the very short call we had.He is not only a credit to himself, but also to Forbes solicitors.Truly a 5 star customer service satisfaction.Thank you again Mr Dunbar.

Keep well away from this firm

Keep well away from this firm. You will agree on said amount to pay. Then they straight up lie to you. Demand more then drop you

The most stressfull time ever.The speed and lack of communication and standerd was 29 months of hell.we had two solisters working for us in 20 months the 1st was either not in the office or in a meeting not sighing work off for weeks and weeks at the time.team building for the whole office working from home extreamly rude and spoke to us like we where children. The Solicitors where in control they sent the photographers round to take pics of my dads house did not inform any of the family. So that day i went to check on the house i pulled up and the blinds where moving i jumped out ran down the drive opened the back door and they where standing in my dads property i thought we had burgers i ask who gave there permission i was told to contact the esate agent, i rang themthey said nothing to do with us contact the solicitors. The Solicitors asked for the for sale borad up .5 weeks the board was up and the solister hadn't sighed it of the esate agent rang but still was not sighned off.they hold back money and hold back money for months a time the house sold and week didnt get paid for over a month with out ringing and asking where is it.that was january we only got the final money that was in april time wasters and holding money back please read and take in what happened to us we lost posible viewings and a better price on dads house due it not being sighned off
