Thank you Caitlin Fraser

I was supported by Caitlin Fraser at Gilson Gray on a part exchange for selling and buying my property, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her service. From start to finish, Caitlin demonstrated incredible patience, kindness, and professionalism.The turnaround time was tight, just 8 weeks, but Caitlin worked tirelessly to ensure everything was completed on schedule, allowing me to move into my new home without any delays. Some of the certifications required for the process were challenging for me to obtain, but Caitlin consistently stepped in with reassurance and practical support, helping to resolve any issues with ease and efficiency.Her communication was clear and timely throughout, and I always felt like she was genuinely invested in getting the best outcome for me. Thanks to Caitlin, what could have been a stressful process felt much more manageable. I’m incredibly grateful for her hard work and expertise and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a solicitor for property transactions.Thank you, Caitlin, for going above and beyond!

Professional and efficient!

I recently used Gilson Gray for our new build purchase, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. Tracy, was outstanding, professional, efficient, and always on top of things. Suzanne and Sophie were also incredibly helpful, answered all my questions and resolved all issues quickly. Despite a tight timeline, the team worked hard to get me into my new home on the agreed date. Their communication was excellent throughout, and I felt completely supported every step of the way. Would highly recommend for their outstanding service!

I needed a new home purchase turned around in 3 weeks, and Gilson Gray were very prompt with everything required. Tracy McAlpine was a great help in particular. 4 stars as there were some admin issues (documents somehow got lost, that I had to re-do, and I had to re-do an online property questionnaire as the system had a fault), but excellent experience apart from that!

Gilson Gray were the most efficient…

Gilson Gray were the most efficient company I have dealt with in a long time. In particular Tracy McAlpine in the Glasgow office. She explained every step of buying a new property and selling our home that we had lived in for 26 years. If I emailed she called and went through my query with an assuring, pleasant and professional manner. The whole experience from the For Sale board going up to the day we moved into our new property was hassle free and went like clockwork. Would highly recommend GG!!

A Professional and Reliable Solicitors

I recently worked with Tracy and Zoe for handling a property, and We couldn’t be happier with the service. From the very beginning, Tracy and Zoe was thorough, professional, and explained everything clearly. They took the time to listen to my concerns and offered practical advice. Communication was always prompt, and I felt confident in their expertise. I would highly recommend Tracy and Zoe to anyone in need of legal services. A very positive experience overall!

Warm, reassuring, trustworthy!

I've had such a warm, efficient, and reassuring service working with Gilson Grey (Chloe Harding, Emma Miller, and Rachel Greig from the Glasgow branch). Their communications were surprisingly fast and ever-concise, and I had full trust in them acting on my behalf when offering for properties. Onboarding was incredibly simple, and they're just all-round great people to deal with. Looking forward to finishing up the process in the new year!

The reviews here say it all

The reviews here say it all. I have never dealt with a less professional outfit in my life. Impossible to get hold of; every email is automatically replied to with an automated delay response; voicemail boxes are always full so no messages can be left, I have yet to have a conversation with our actual conveyancer - if she even exists, our buyers can't get hold of them. This is the most appalling firm of 'legals' cowboys.I fully expect to be replied to here with the same pat response others have received. The only response that will be acceptable is to halve their fee and guarantee a response to all communications within 24 hours.

I have rented a property for about 4years, i have dealt with Pauline Traill from the viewing and can can honestly say that the service she has given me has been outstanding, the speed they deal with any problems you have is exceptional, would 100% recommend them as a landlord.

THE WORST

Dealing with Gilson Gray is like working with a large piece of lead. It doesn't move, it doesn't speak, it doesn't send emails, it doesn't reply to emails, it doesn't process information, it doesn't pick up the phone, it doesn't answer the phone, it doesn't communicate in any way, it doesn't actually do anything (certainly not it's job)........it just sits there, a large inanimate object acting as an immovable obstacle to the completion of perfectly good property sales.To echo previous reviews, they only deserve minus 5 at best. Their staff are the most feckless, incompetent group of imbeciles I've encountered during my 42 years. My current property sale has been the most unimpressive human endeavour I've ever had the misfortune to witness. There have been no problems.....other than Gilson Gray. They are a burden to society and should be eradicated immediately, so that the rest of us can go on to live useful and productive lives.To Gilson Gray - don't bother leaving your pre-fabricated generic response to this review. I won't be contacting you for anything, ever. As I've already indicated, there is little point trying to communicate with a giant piece of heavy and cumbersome metal.
