What clients say about Bell Lamb & Joynson
Clients praise the firm for strong conveyancing expertise plus wills, probate, lasting powers of attorney, family law and criminal defence advocacy. Reviews highlight clear, timely communication, responsive use of a client portal, proactive case management and efficient outcomes. The team is described as professional, empathetic and patient, offering reassuring, trustworthy guidance, thorough attention to detail and practical support that reduces stress during complex transactions and court matters.
I needed to sell my late father’s property, but with some particularly challenging conveyancing and title documentation issues to resolve, I needed an experienced, knowledgeable and proactive legal team. Bell Lamb & Joynson Solicitors stood out from the very beginning. From the outset, their Conveyancing Team made me feel genuinely valued and welcomed. Their outstanding customer service, combined with their expertise and professionalism, ultimately made all the difference in achieving a successful outcome. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Every question was answered with patience and clarity, and everything was handled proactively, accurately and within the timescales promised. Despite the complexities involved, the sale successfully progressed through to completion. This speaks volumes about the team’s legal expertise, attention to detail and determination to achieve the right outcome for their client. A special thank you to Chris Courtenay, Olivia Andrews and Cath Mills. Each played an important role at different stages of the process, and having such a dedicated and approachable team throughout made the whole experience feel personal, professional and reassuring. Selling a family home following the loss of a parent is never easy, particularly when dealing with the additional legal complexities involved. However, Bell Lamb & Joynson made what could have been a very stressful experience as smooth and straightforward as possible. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Bell Lamb & Joynson Solicitors to anyone looking for professional, knowledgeable and dependable conveyancing services.

We would 100% recommend Bell Lamb & Joynson Solicitors, especially Rachael and Shania, who handled the conveyancing for our new home, from the offer being accepted to completion was 6 weeks which is just unreal. They have both been fantastic throughout the entire process, and we cannot thank them enough for all their hard work, support and guidance. What can be a stressful experience wasn't at all as they just handled everything, updated us on the portal or direct message which was great given we both work and cant often answer calls and emails, having people who make the process feel easier and who you can trust made such a difference. Rachael and Shania have been brilliant, and I really appreciate everything they have done for us. Thank you both for all your help, PATIENCE and professionalism. You have been an absolute credit to Bell Lamb & Joynson, and we would 100% recommend anyone to use them, in particular Rachael and Shania

I bought my house using BLJ 5 years ago and now selling my house and buying my new one with them too, this goes to show how good they are! I had Megan Shaw and Jacqueline Ball as my solicitors and they were truly incredible. They answered any and all silly questions so quickly, made me feel involved and supported me throughout the entire process. Also, using the app meant I could message when I had time which was very convenient!

It was sometimes difficult to get updates especially on the app provided, the information did not always mean anything to me and left some confusion The final stages were very unclear, I was told things were in place, then they weren’t, then they were? I found my removal company and estate agent gave me more information than the solicitor firm on completion day, I was not informed of the process on this day, Google helped but it would have been good to have more information before the date, there was an error with the funding transfer as well which did cause more stress unfortunately. I did not meet anyone from the team and there were delays in replying to my enquiries I think it would be useful for you to provide details of what some of your terms mean eg ‘enquiries, searches, certificates’ and provide more information about timescales , I was supported by BLJ and the vendors used the same company so I would think this would usually make communication more effective? This was a new experience for me at a stressful time and as someone who has no insight into the processes involved I did feel uncertain of what to expect The reception team at the office were always helpful and it was good to see they were supporting each other when they were unsure what to do, thanks to them and please can they be told of this? Sorry I don’t recall their names I hope this will help your firm improve their service and practice
Great, easy, consistent, professional service from start to finis with the team keeping me informed at the earliest opportunity. Have used a couple of times when buying and selling a property. The App is really user-friendly, simple to use too.

Chris and Olivia were just precisely what we needed in terms of handling our house purchase. They kept the process simple, clear, efficient and were quick to deal with any issues as they arose and were highly communicative throughout. Chris really made it clear he was on our side and working for our interests, whilst being reassuring at all times and swiftly dealing with any requests we made of him. I cannot speak more highly of the service and support we received, and this is attested to by the fact we are very happy to be working with Chris and Olivia on our next property transaction. I have heard a lot of horror stories when it comes to the conveyancing process and solicitors that don’t give the kind of support you need during what is a major life event - I am therefore absolutely sincere when I say I shall be recommending BLJ, and Chris and Olivia. I should also give a shout out to David for the kind and attentive additional support he provided during our journey - absolutely reinforcing the clear picture of the can-do, friendly, professional culture at BLJ.
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.

Lily and her team did an excellent job conveyancing both our house sale and subsequent house purchase. Timely responses, with a friendly down to earth manner, made it a pleasure to do business with them.

Emily and Alex were great throughout. We always got replies to our questions very promptly, and they were proactive in keeping us updated throughout the process. It was great to feel like we didn't have to chase them and that they were on top of everything. Would definitely use Bell Lamb & Joynson again!

So much more expensive than other I felt like cos I'm a first time buyer it was ok to make me wait . The portal is only good when I actually get a reply. At least we have got to the end goal
