Great help
Caroline helped me through my first home purchase, and we didn’t have the easiest ride, but she helped me massively. Buying a house is quite a scary process but Caroline made sure that we understood everything.

About this score
This rating is based on verified client feedback and compares how this firm’s value for money is perceived against the national average. In legal services, value for money is not about being the cheapest option, but about whether clients feel the service, expertise, and outcome justified the cost. This comparison helps place client experiences in context when choosing a law firm.

About this score
This rating is based on client feedback and compares how satisfied people were with the result of their legal matter against the national average for similar legal services. While every case is different and outcomes can depend on the law, the facts, and decisions made by courts or tribunals, this comparison is designed to be like for like.
When a firm has a large number of reviews, individual case differences tend to balance out over time. This makes the national average a useful benchmark for understanding how often clients feel the result achieved was fair and appropriate for their situation. Even small differences from the average can therefore reflect a meaningful difference in the overall standard of legal service provided.

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 wanted to take a moment to express our appreciation for the excellent service provided by Judge & Priestly throughout our recent house purchase. From start to finish, Louise and Chloe were highly professional, responsive, and efficient. The transaction was handled swiftly, and they worked incredibly hard to keep everything on track, ensuring that any issues were addressed promptly and clearly communicated to us. Buying a property can often be a stressful process, but their dedication, attention to detail, and proactive approach made the experience much smoother than we anticipated. We always felt informed and confident that our purchase was in very capable hands. We would not hesitate to recommend Judge & Priestly to others and are very grateful for the outstanding support they provided. Aydin & Trevor

Brooke Stevens at the Sidcup office recently helped me with the sale of a property in the Hollies. Brooke was extremely knowledgeable about the estate and handled everything calmly and professionally throughout the transaction. So much so that Brooke is now dealing with my purchase of a new home. I cannot rate her services highly enough.

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.

We had a great experience with Judge & Priestley Solicitors. We used them in the sale of our house and we weren't confident in their services as we had a terrible experience with a separate solicitor when purchasing our home. I am happy to say they surpass our expectations and were amazing to deal with! They had great communication and were prompt in answering all of my questions (and I had a lot!). They also kept me updated every step of the way. Jack was the main person we dealt with and he was great - so helpful and knowledgeable! Thanks for everything!

I worked with Judge and Priestley on the sale of my late father’s house and was highly impressed by the professional and timely service I received. The process was made very straightforward for me – the team kept me fully informed and provided good guidance throughout. Highly recommended, and I would have no concerns about using them again.

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!
A representative from Judge And Priestley LLP responded to this review
Dear Karin, thank you for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that Isabel provided such compassionate, knowledgeable support during a difficult time and guided you through the probate process with care. It's wonderful to know that you have continued to place your trust in Isabel and the team for your LPAs and Will. We truly appreciate your recommendation.

In August 2023, Isobel helped my father and I with updating our Wills. This year I put in place my LPA, Isobel went through all the stages so clearly and answered questions fully. Isobel is very professional and knowledgeable. Judge & Priestley are very lucky to her as part of their team.
