JWP Solicitors

I met Jason Deakon once. That was the consultation he was late thank you for that appointment. We talked I gave him the details of my possible divorce situation. I spoke with him after I received emails regarding my wife’s intentions. After a few days we spoke on the phone. He told me I had lied about the cottage in Whitby I thought me and my wife had our names on. It turns out I wasn’t on the deeds and he told me I’d lied that shocked me. I didn’t know I never checked why would I we’ve been married 22 years and it doesn’t matter anyway. The next bomb shell was that he wasn’t familiar with North Yorkshire and I should get a solicitor from that area. I’m still annoyed that he called me a liar and wanted to fob me off. The bill came and I had a £200 phone call that was when he told me the above. I’ll pay the balance tomorrow but £909 for the service I’ve had is scandalous. He was not professional or punctual. One of the reasons that I’m not continuing with any further business with JWP is on the 14/9/26 that I have prostate cancer and an operation is required to remove the prostate. More upsetting news for me. I do hope the MD of the company has a word with MR Deakon about his manner and level of professionalism.

Under unfortunate circumstances I was fortunate enough to work with Sydnee for a second time. Her guidance and professionalism are absolutely fantastic I couldn’t recommend her enough. Always available for any advice you may seek, and makes you feel at ease on days that are quite uneasy. Thank you for your time and effort in my case and all the best.

Used in a divorce matter, unprofessional service, unacceptable advice, even worse representation in court. If you want to lose most of what you have, these are the people to use. You need to be a qualified lawyer before using this company as their errors are frequent and the results are ruinous. They are running a business, they do it for profit, not the interests of their clients so don`t be one.

Shauna was absolutely fantastic in dealing with my divorce. She guided me through every step of the way with help, efficiency and expertise. Would recommend to anyone seeking a reliable patient and helpful solicitor. Made a difficult time much easier.

I first reached out to Delia back in 2023, seeking advice for my divorce. After speaking to Delia, I knew she'd have my back. What I didn't know, was that my divorce would take an extremely 'unpleasant' turn. But, Delia, and her assistant, Danielle, helped me through the process, taking all the stress from me. Delia even called me 'out of hours' and free of charge, to assure me that everything was going to be ok. Delia and Danielle, to me, are superstars. I couldn't have got through the horrible process of divorce without them. Thank you, ladies.

Grace Clark was amazing !!!! She Helped through me through a difficult divorce .. I felt I could leave everything in her capable hands And of course Karen Broughton the legal Secretary was just as amazing!!!!! A friendly voice and guidance throughout!!!! Thank you soo much I would highly recommend this firm !!!

Very professional from start to finish. This was a complicated family matter, that Melissa Portlock took on. Melissa informed me of every step and took time to listen to me also. If you are looking for a solicitor to represent you in family matters then I very highly recommend Melissa.

Excellent service, no time wasting, professionally assisted from the receptionist to the solicitor herself

Thank you for your help, it is a very good service.
