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,"

Fair experience

In general it was good experience. The app is a good way to stay connected but sometimes felt like I was talking to a bot rather than a person. This was sometimes an issue when trying to get updates or clarification on certain items. Both Olivia and chris where courteous and polite. I am still undecided whether I would use the service again next time or go back to my previous solicitor.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that overall you had a good experience and found our team to be courteous and polite. We appreciate your comments regarding the app and communication style, but we can assure you that no bits are used via our app and your are communicating directly with your lawyer and our team but we will take this on board as part of our ongoing service improvement.

Generally speaking great service, friendly people. Good value. The only thing I'm not sure on is there was clearly some communications issues between sides but don't know who's side that was. All round happy to use again!

We need faster responses to messages, a more useful call centre, and an ability to confirm and details verbally, without having to call the specific solicitor. Also, messages and calls often went days unread

Brilliant company to use, communication is second to non, you are able to download there app when you have signed up, gives you full breakdown of your bill and a messaging service to get intouch, so no need to call and wait for the people to call you back. Also all legal documents are all digital so you have full access to read through will no rushing, and fhe staff are on hand to contact with any questions you need answering. We can’t thank Bell Lamb and Johnson enough they helped us buy our first home .

A representative from Bell Lamb & Joynson responded to this review

Thank you Tom for your kind words and enjoy your new home!

A special mention has to go to Lisa Taylor, who has looked after us from day one right up until the last minute. She went above and beyond to get us over the line during the last few frantic days. We cannot thank her enough and we will definately be recommending herself and the company to our friends and family.

Very professional

Darren was very professional and got the best possible outcome for my case. Despite taking on the case on short notice, as I had previously been dealing with another firm, I was impressed by his knowledge, expertise and confidence in the court room. I would highly recommend Darren Jones to anyone in need of any legal assistance. 10/10 service.

Residential conveyancing

A professional, friendly and timely service from everyone involved with both the purchase and sale of our house. We would highly recommend Michaela, who was exemplary throughout our moving process. Michaela explained all enquiries to us and kept us fully informed at every stage. Michaela returned our calls/ emails, sometimes communicating with us at weekends or during the evening, so that we didn’t have to wait overnight, putting our minds at ease. If we needed to call and Michaela wasn’t available then Emma was always there to talk to and explain any questions I had. Although the purchase of our new home was challenging, the service from Michaela supported by Emma was seamless from start to finish. Thank you so much.

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.
