Slow, inefficient, incredibly hard to get in contact with. We were ignored for weeks and completely left in the dark despite many calls and emails; we couldn't be able to see the house a second time till the date of entry because we waited basically until the last couple of days to finally end the missives; for this reason we were forced to accept any inconvenience and problems with the property to avoid any risk of not getting the house and being homeless, for real. All of this caused expenses that we would have been able to avoid if only we had the time to organize everything, spending a lot more money than expected for a house that we love but was full of surprises. They deprived us of the joy in the process of buying our first home, making everything incredibly stressful and complicated.
We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and sincerely apologize for the stress and inconvenience caused during your home-buying process. Your feedback is important to us, and we will review the concerns you’ve raised to see how we can improve our communication and service for future clients. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Arrangements were made on Tuesday with Nicki Geissler to view a property today. Turned up at the property, nobody to show us around. Phoned Gilson Gray only to be told that there had been an offered accepted earlier in the week. Fair enough, but no attempts were made by Gilson Gray to inform us and cancel the viewing. This is not only poor communication and service on the part of the agent but from a sellers perspective I’d be hacked off if I had viewers turning up at the door after I’d accepted an offer. We’ll be thinking twice before booking any future viewings with Gilson gray and it’s certainly put us off ever selling with them.

As a first time buyer, my experience with Michael was prompt, responsive and professional. It was a more seamless process than I had expected before going in.
Thank you for your kind words Bryan. We’re delighted to hear that Michael was able to make your first-time home-buying experience seamless, prompt, and professional. Your feedback is greatly appreciated! Regards Gilson Gray LLP

I purchased a property from my landlord in April 2025 and Gilson Gray oversaw the sale. While it was a relatively low maintenance sale, they still made the process very straightforward and, crucially, I found them easy to reach and engage with, which isn't always the case with solicitors! As someone from England navigating the Scottish house purchasing process, I was grateful for their walking through with me what was required. As in Scotland you need a solicitor early on in the house purchasing process, I'd recommend reaching out to them if you're starting afresh.

I was extremely disappointed and shocked with the service received from Gilson Gray when trying to buy a property in Fife. The lack of care they gave was unacceptable and there was a disrespect to us as their client. You couldn’t get an answer to an email at a responsible timeframe unless you phoned up. Our lawyer always had his answer machine on so couldn’t ever get through to them. There was no safeguarding for us as a client. I would stay clear of this company if you are looking to be treated with respect by a lawyer and actually cares for their clients.

Disgusting attitude towards disabled people my son has autism and selective mutism,he cannot speak over the phone they made no reasonable adjustments at all it’s bad enough that my son lost his dad and grandparents in just over a year they have made what was a very difficult situation to begin with a lot worse,no care no compassion no thoughts for disability this company is absolutely a disgrace

Absolutely appalling service. We had the misfortune of dealing with Gilson Gray for a house sale, and their incompetence and inefficiency were staggering. Communication was virtually impossible, calls and emails went unanswered, and on the rare occasion we did get through, we were passed endlessly from one person to another. What should have been a straightforward transaction was dragged out for weeks due to their delays, putting the entire chain at risk of collapse. Their lack of urgency, accountability, and professionalism caused needless stress and frustration. Avoid them at all costs.
Thank you for your feedback. We apologise for any frustration or inconvenience you have experienced. Your comments have been passed on to the team for review, and we are committed to improving our services. If you would like to discuss your concerns further, please do not hesitate to contact us. Best, Gilson Gray LLP

They sent my offer on a really good property to the wrong firm, which led to me missing out. They explained that it was a common mistake. It is a concern if this is true.

Dreadful in all aspects, No transparency on billing and hoping for the easy option of settlement rather than fighting or properly negotiating for the client. Deadlines for court submissions missed on a number of occasions. Would avoid at all costs, and it will definitely cost.

Buying a house is stressful enough, but this solicitor firm made the experience even worse. Their customer service is astoundingly bad, they have a dismissive nature and snide unprofessional tone in emails. Avoid!
