    Sarah was brilliant and reinstilled my faith in British law and justice! On a personal level her empathy, understanding and advice has so far been exemplary and invaluable (especially as it has allowed me to get some much needed sleep!!). Sarah understood my complex situation and made some excellent suggestions which I am seriously considering. When my situation clarifies, then for sure I will employ Sarah for the rest of the process.

    Review for Nimalee Bastian-Carter

    I was recommended to Judge and Priestley by a friend. Our situation was extremely difficult, we required a home visit. I thought this would be difficult but the appointment was arranged without any hesitation. The advice we were given was explained in a very helpful and friendly manner, it was very clear which made it easy for us to understand. I would use your services again, and recommend your company to other friends.

    Sarah Rose was exceptionally helpful during my family court proceedings. She was detailed, patient and very good at explaining things in simple terms. Thankfully, I was able to get a positive outcome for my daughter working with Sarah at J&P, so I'm very grateful. I would happily recommend Sarah and her trusted Barrister, Eva Robinson, for family law proceedings in the future.

    Dear Sarah. Thank you for your kind feedback. We’re glad Sarah was able to successfully guide you through your court proceedings. We really appreciate your comments.

    Sarah Rose assisted me with a Financial Remedy, following my divorce. I cannot thank Sarah Rose enough for all of her support and guidance throughout the whole process. Sarah Rose was always so professional and approachable, explaining legal matters in simple terms. Most importantly, Sarah Rose showed compassion during a very challenging time! Also, my final invoice for billed fees were well within the initial estimate that I received at the beginning. A huge thank you Sarah Rose, you truly are a great asset to Judge & Priestley.

    Dear Tina, Thank you for your kind feedback. We’re glad Sarah was able to guide you smoothly through the process at such a difficult time. We really appreciate your comments.

      LPA and Will

      I initially met Isabel as Judge & Priestly were the recommended firm to handle matters following the death of my beloved father. She was from the start and all the way through incredibly kind, thoughtful and knowledgeable. Isabel and her team have done a great job with respect to my father's Estate, supporting me through Probate which in itself is quite an experience. She subsequently also helped me put in place LPAs for myself and also to redraft my Will. She takes great care to explain everything, she is patient and sensitive in her approach and also steps in and galvanises other teams within J&P when matters get particularly complex or difficult. Thank you Isabel!

      Excellent Conveyancing Solicitor

      I had an excellent experience working with James Ray and his assistant Orla on what was a genuinely tricky sale. Their service was exceptional from start to finish, and their communication throughout was outstanding — I always knew where things stood and felt well looked after at every stage. Whenever a complication arose, they offered solid, sage advice and handled it with real professionalism and care. I would not hesitate to recommend James, Orla, and the wider team to anyone looking for a dependable, expert conveyancing solicitor.

      I can't recommend James Ray and his assistant Orla highly enough. From start to finish, they provided exceptional service on what turned out to be a genuinely tricky sale, and they handled every twist and turn with patience, skill, and reassuring professionalism. What stood out most was their communication — I was never left wondering what was happening or what came next. James and Orla kept me updated at every stage, explained things clearly, and were always quick to respond whenever I had a question or concern. That kind of consistent, proactive contact made a stressful process feel genuinely manageable. On top of that, the advice they gave throughout was sound, sensible, and clearly grounded in real expertise. They didn't just process paperwork — they actively looked out for my interests and helped me navigate some complicated moments with confidence. I'd not hesitate to recommend James, Orla, and the wider team to anyone looking for a conveyancing solicitor who combines real professionalism with a genuinely personal touch. Outstanding service all round.
