Jake Brace

Graduate Solicitor Apprentice

Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

Jake joined Smith & Co Solicitors in August 2025, as a paralegal supporting the Residential Conveyancing team. Jake completed a Law degree at the University of Northampton and returned to Suffolk to continue his legal career. He has progressed to become a Graduate Solicitor Apprentice, attending weekly training sessions with BPP, a nationally recognised legal education provider. Jake’s previous experience of residential conveyancing was with a Haverhill & Sudbury based property firm. He also volunteered at the Citizens Advice Bureau in Sudbury which gave him a valuable insight into consumer issues that arise and an understanding of how a law firm can support clients during potentially stressful times. Having grown up and been educated in in Great Cornard, Jake enjoys living in an area he knows so well. Outside of office hours, he’s a keen golfer and member of the Stoke by Nayland Golf Club. He’s also an Arsenal football fan and a keen Formula 1 spectator, with the Williams team being his favourite, so there’s plenty that keeps him busy at weekends.

A fantastic experience from start to finish

We recently used Jade for the purchase of our new home at Lawford Green and couldn’t have been happier with the service we received. From start to finish, communication was excellent and everything generally progressed much quicker and more smoothly than we had expected. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and every question we had was answered clearly and promptly. At no point did we feel like we were being a nuisance for asking questions or chasing something up, which makes a huge difference during what can be quite a stressful process! Jade and Kitty were both friendly, professional and incredibly helpful throughout, and we always felt like we knew exactly where things stood. A genuinely positive experience from start to finish and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jade and the team. Thank you again for making the purchase of our new home such a smooth one!

Buying a property

I cannot recommend Jade and Jake enough. They have kept us informed throughout the process of selling our house we are novices to the game and they took the time to explain everything to us. Both of them have a friendly disposition and patience, which you need when going through this process. Once again, thankyou Jade and Jake.

Sale of Mum’s bungalow.

I can’t thank Jade and Jake enough for their expertise and support whilst my sister and I were selling mum’s bungalow. It was an emotional task for us but it was very easy with them overseeing the process.
