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,

Michaela and the team have been absolutely incredible from start to finish. I love the app and very easy way to message at whatever time suits me. Whenever I have called I have also always been able to get through. Communication really is key, and BLJ have been fantastic. Thank you so much for helping us sell our mum's home.

Chris has been phenomenal throughout this whole experience. What started off as a bit of a nightmare has become a total dream with the help of Chris and the team. We've had constant reminders and updates which is so helpful, as it's so easy to lose track of so much information when you lead a busy life. A massive thank you to the whole team for their work

Great experience

We have a really nice experience with Jacqueline Ball and Megan Shaw during the process of buying our first property. The process was long but they kept us posted and answered all our infinite questions with professionalism and empathy. Thank you very much for all your support ladies, it was easier to go through this process because of you two.

Chris was really nice and super prompt with his replies which I know that people have a hard time coming by with solicitors, so this was great. 10/10 for that. However, I think it would help to inform the customers about any potential additional costs more clearly over the phone and any action that they need to take themselves (ie. Filling out release forms for LISA). First time buyers have no experience of the process and it would help to have more concise info re: the whole process. Apart from those little things, I had a really good experience with a Chris and thank him for his help with everything.
