Over 2 years of delays, broken written promises, and now completely ignored

My experience with Pinnacle has been extremely disappointing and is still unresolved after more than two years.

I instructed Pinnacle to transfer a property into my name and paid the required fees upfront in good faith. The file was handled by Mahruf Razak, and from the beginning the progress was extremely slow. I had to repeatedly chase for updates and was given ongoing assurances that the matter was in hand, yet nothing meaningful was completed.

After a very long period of delays and the stress this caused, the issue was escalated and I was contacted by Philip Harris, Customer Experience Manager, who acknowledged the situation. He confirmed in writing that, as a gesture of goodwill for the unacceptable delay, the work would be completed free of charge.

Based on that written commitment, I expected the matter to finally be resolved.

Unfortunately, since that promise was made:
• My emails have been ignored
• No updates have been provided
• No timescale has been given
• The property transfer is still not completed

This is particularly concerning given that:
• The original payment was taken immediately
• The delay has now exceeded two years
• The agreement to complete the work is clearly documented in email

I have been more than patient and reasonable throughout this entire process, but the complete lack of communication and failure to honour what was promised has left me with no confidence that Pinnacle intends to resolve this matter.

As a result, I am now preparing to pursue formal legal action to enforce the written agreement and recover my losses.

This review is a factual account of my experience and is based entirely on documented correspondence.

I would strongly advise anyone considering using Pinnacle to:
• Ensure strict timelines are agreed in writing
• Think carefully before paying upfront
• Be prepared to chase regularly for progress

A straightforward property transfer taking over two years, followed by a written goodwill promise that is not honoured and then complete silence, is simply unacceptable

Philip was so helpful and really went above and beyond.

Made the whole process as a first time buyer very easy to understand. I knew what was expected from me at every stage, and was helped with things that didn’t make sense to me at first. Umer was very on top of chasing the vendors solicitors when delays occurred and I felt like he was working very hard in my best interests. Couldn’t recommend them enough.

Excellent service from Tom and Philip. Made the legal process of buying my new flat very straightforward. Would definitely recommend.

Phil and Umer provided us with exceptional service from day one. E-mails and phone calls were replied to swiftly and no matter how busy they might have been, we felt like valued clients who were important, even over small queries we had. We don't think our journey through the purchase and sales would have gone so smoothly without them and we have been grateful for their professional and emotional support over the last few months! We would highly recommend Pinnacle Law and especially Phil Harris and Umer Rashid. Thankyou both!

Great experience Phillip was amazing and so helpful made the purchase very easy and smooth and took the stress out of it

Highly recommended!
I had a great experience and would highly recommend them. Niraj was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process—always quick to respond to my questions and very patient with everything. When Niraj wasn’t available, Phil stepped in seamlessly and was just as reliable and helpful. They were both great to work with: always on time, efficient, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. A really professional and trustworthy team!
Thank you!

I had an outstanding experience with Pinnacle Property Lawyers, particularly thanks to Maroof. From start to finish, the conveyancing process was remarkably smooth and stress-free. Maroof was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and always available to answer my questions. His attention to detail and dedication to ensuring everything went seamlessly made all the difference. I highly recommend Pinnacle Property Lawyers to anyone needing legal assistance in property matters. Thank you, Maroof, for making this experience a positive one!

From the start till the end a very smooth process from pinnacle law solicitors. Especially Maroof. He was very professional and polite at doing his job. Helped me so many times and explained in a professional manner. Thank you Maroof. Would definitely recommend to family and friends

I had the pleasure of working with Pinnacle Solicitors during the sale of my property, and I couldn't be more satisfied with their service. They were incredibly prompt and thorough throughout the entire process, ensuring everything went smoothly from start to finish. A special mention goes to Maroof, who was exceptionally supportive and professional in his approach. He was always available to answer my questions and offered clear, helpful guidance every step of the way. Overall, Pinnacle Solicitors is a highly professional and reliable firm, and I highly recommend them for anyone in need of legal services. They did a fantastic job!"

I recently had the pleasure of working with Foazia Rafiq at Pinnacle, and I can't recommend her highly enough. From start to finish, Foazia was very professional—providing clear, prompt communication at every step of the sales process. Her expertise ensured that everything was handled quickly and efficiently, making the whole process stress free.

Her helpful attitude, dedication and availability were much appreciated!

I have the pleasure of dealing with Maroof Razak. Maroof assisted me in the purchase of a commercial property with complex and technical issues, which were raised by the lenders solicitors. Maroof went above and beyond to get the matters resolved and dealt with. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

I had the pleasure of working with Maroof Razak from Pinnacle Property Layers on a particularly complex property transaction that involved both a challenging purchase and seller-side representation, from the start Maroof showed an exceptional level of professionalism and expertise to ensure that every aspect of the process was handled with precision and efficiency.
The purchase involved some issues which i had no understanding of, i.e. property is a freehold however still need to pay service charges, Maroof went above and beyond to track the management company to set-up the payment contract and this required a deep understanding of property law and strategic problem-solving, Maroof offered clear and practical solutions that protected my interests and kept the transaction on track.
I was kept informed at every stage of the process, with clear explanations of the legal nuances and potential risks. Maroof was always available to answer questions, whether via email or phone, and took the time to ensure I fully understood each step before proceeding which made the entire experience far less stressful than it could have been.
I cannot recommend Maroof highly enough and If you are looking for a property lawyer who is highly knowledgeable and capable of handling even the most complex transactions with ease Maroof is the perfect choice because without being asked he also carried out some of the work for seller side lawyers to keep the transaction on track.

Thank You Maroof

I was recommended to use Pinnacle via a friend for sale of a commercial property. I contacted Pinnacle and was introduced to Maroof who dealt with my matter.
I can’t thank Maroof enough for his speedy and professional service. Maroof was always on the other end of the phone to assist and his conveyance knowledge was exceptional.
My thanks to all the team at Pinnacle.

I recently purchased a property, and I cannot speak highly enough of the conveyancing service provided. From start to finish, the process was handled with the utmost professionalism, efficiency, and care.
The Firm was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and proactive throughout the entire process. They kept me informed at every stage, explained complex legal terms in a way that was easy to understand, and ensured that all deadlines were met without any delays. Their attention to detail and dedication to providing a seamless experience truly stood out.

What impressed me the most was their ability to handle any issues that arose promptly and effectively. They went above and beyond to ensure the transaction was completed smoothly, and I always felt confident that my case was in capable hands.

I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and professional conveyancer. Thank you for making my property purchase such a stress-free experience!
