Helping us buy our first home

5

Jackie was brilliant throughout the experience of buying our first home, our process came through a lot of bumps but not from our side, Jackie communicated all the time to us and to our mortgage advisor. She dealt with all the hiccups for us through our sellers solicitors, would honestly recommend again and again! She was fantastic, our transaction was so easy. We all struggled in regards to the sellers solicitors as they didn’t communicate to her often but she still managed to chase them and get us processed. Really could not of done it without her! Thank you so much for it all.

JM Lewis - excellent conveyancing experience

5

I was referred to JM Lewis by Scoffield Stone as I had to complete a complicated house purchase and Land Registry assignment after a sudden bereavement. We had enormous time pressures and tight deadlines to work to which JM Lewis assured us they would aspire to meet. JM Lewis were extremely responsive and led us through the process carefully and collaboratively to hit these timelines. I couldn’t be more impressed with their attention to detail and the navigate this complex process whilst keeping us informed at each stage. I would not hesitate in recommending their services.

Calm, objective and professional

5

I would highly recommend Jacqueline and 'Team Byrd' at John M Lewis. I was always treated with patience and respect, and never felt patronised. I was made to feel welcome at the office, despite sometimes arriving unannounced and I genuinely felt as if Jacqueline and her team were acting in my best interest, rather than 'another customer' or profit for the business. I was always kept informed of each stage of the sale and provided with sound and objective advice throughout. Thank you, 'Team Byrd,' for making the process as smooth as possible.

Amazing soliciors

5

I’ve used John M Lewis for a number of years and always highly recommend them to anyone I can. Jacqueline in particular is incredible and a pleasure to work with - she is always quick to respond, efficient, approachable and professional. Her support and dedication is second to none and very much appreciated. I would not use anyone else. A huge thank you to Jacquline and her team for always going above and beyond and providing an excellent service - would give more than 5 stars if I could!

We were recommended to use John M Lewis and we were not disappointed. From the start of the process to the completion we were kept in the loop with any updates. Jacqueline was never to busy to accept a call and ease any worries we had. Consummate professional throughout we would definitely recommend John M Lewis but more importantly Jacqueline

Hearing stories about how long it normally takes to buy a house these days due to delays post offer acceptance, I’ve been highly impressed by John M Lewis for how quickly they managed to progress my purchase and for how communicative they’ve been a long the way. Way to go Team Byrd! 🙌👏

Great company to deal with, Jacqueline Byrd was fantastic when we were buying and selling selling. She was super helpful and really communicative. She did everything she could to keep things moving along quickly and smoothly. Highly recommend.

I never leave a good review! But this solicitors deserve one. I have used them several times for services such as house purchases and will writing and I will never use anyone else. Friends, affordable, on the ball and fast. Jacqueline did my last house purchase and she was so fast and friendly, chasing me!

We have sold and brought a few properties over a 14yr period with JML and the service has always been friendly professional and efficient.
A special mention for Jacqueline who has been absolutely fantastic communicating and keeping us informed step by step. Her professionalism has been outstanding I only wish the buyers of our property had such an efficient lady such as Jacqueline working at their solicitors.
Plus a mention for receptionist Vanesa who is a lovely friendly lady to have on the front desk

I am such a big believer in good service being passed forward. My experience with this company has been nothing but excellent. When buying my first house, everyone warned me about “solicitor delays”. My solicitor, Jackie, was anything but a delay. She was extremely professional, thorough and efficient. At no stage was I unsure of anything and if I ever called, she was calling me back within a few hours. I found the price quoted to what I paid to be fair and well priced within the market. I honestly couldn’t thank her enough, she has been amazing through my house buying process and even when there were issues she was hellbent on making it work. Thank you so much to everyone in the team and I’ve really enjoyed my first few days in my new house knowing you’ve made it a lot easier and I will be passing on her details to anyone who is ready to buy a property.

Amazing service again by Wendy, Jacqueline and Team. I’ve used them twice within the year to both sell and purchase properties and in both cases they have been absolutely amazing, always keeping you updated and there to help at any point of the transition if you have any worries. Just BRILLIANT….

I would highly recommend J M Lewis & Co.
