Excellent professional support with Will preparation

"My Wife and I have been considering having our Wills prepared and met Melissa Hughes at BLJ towards the end of April. Dealing with this really important matter is never straightforward and we were naturally anxious. There was no need, however, as Melissa was very professional,"

Thank you BLJ!

I would like to send my heart felt thanks to all the team at BLJ. 12 months ago I simply googled “the best solicitors in Liverpool”, and BLJ came up. I read the reviews, gave them a call, and by the following week they were representing my son in court. They’ve not let us down since. Every solicitor we’ve had from BLJ has been well prepared, organised and has made us feel totally at ease. Sometimes you just need to feel like someone is on your side, and that’s exactly how the team at BLJ have made us feel. My son has ADHD & ASD, and it shocked me how well the team at BLJ understood him and communicated with him. They take the time to explain everything in detail, in a way that he will understand, whilst building a fantastic rapport with both of us. I’ve spent years being the only voice for my son, but the team at BLJ have become an even stronger & louder voice for him, and for that I am so grateful. I would also like to give special thanks to Darren Jones for defending my son last week too. Again, everything was explained perfectly, and I trusted him implicitly when handling our case and advising us. Thank you to the lovely Samantha too, for her kindness & support beforehand. These journeys can be hard and incredibly lonely and challenging at times. Having professionals on your side who just want the best for you is so important, and that is what BLJ provides. Thank you again to everyone, I will never forget how much you’ve helped us.

The service we received from Bell Lamb& Joynson on our recent sale of our property and the conveyance they provided was exemplary. A massive thankyou to Olivia and the team that supported her.. The communication process was easy and underpinned with the BLJ App which provided a clear means to send and receive messages.. it also had an easy to understand dashboard.. thanks again

Thank you very much, Robert! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave this review.

When I was in the Runcorn custody suite and first saw duty solicitor David I immediately felt like someone was on my side. Pre interview, he was amazing and extinguished my anxiety about the whole process. He was clear, concise and professional. Thankfully I was released on bail soon after the interview and a no further action to the offences was given a week later by the police. I recommend this firm and of course David who is semi retired but you cannot put a price on experience. Thank you!

from Bell Lamb & Joynson

Thank you for your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that David was able to provide clear, reassuring, and professional support during a stressful time, helping to ease your anxiety throughout the process. It’s wonderful to know the matter was resolved positively, and your recommendation is greatly appreciated.
