Finally found a great solicitor!

5

Working with Jacqueline was a breath of fresh air compared to my previous experiences of conveyancing solicitors. She was technically competent, structure in her approach, proactive with addressing any arising issues and had great communication skills. What more could you ask for!

Very Smooth Process.

5

Friends and Family had told me that solicitors always dragged their heels and I would have to constantly push them to get stuff back.

I chose John M Lewis because they were cheaper than the competitors so I was expecting them to be quite slow but I was very wrong!

I literally had no problems with the Jacqueline Byrd Team. Every email was answered extremely promptly and they kept me informed on all progress.

There wasn’t a chain either side of the purchase and we were in the house super quick. No delays from the solicitors at all.

Can’t recommend them enough!

Very communicative and helpful

First Rebekah, then Jackie were absolute angels during probably the longest, most stressful move we’ve undertaken. They were always there to talk things through, making the whole process so much easier to go through. I would highly recommend John M Lewis to everyone who is buying and selling a property

Very good experience selling house

4

The whole experience of selling was made easy through the on line portal that I was able to use to provide documents. There was also regular updates about the progress of the sale . My lawyer was proactive in chasing up the buyers solicitors. Would have been 5 star but there was an unexpected delay over the weekend in the funds clearing which it would have been useful to have been warned about.

Jacqueline was very professional and courteous and did a fantastic job for us from inception to completion with both the selling of our property and the purchase of the new house. She worked tirelessly to ensure that the move went through on time. She was a pleasure to deal with. Thank you so much! 😊

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.

We worked with Jacqueline who managed the sale of our Derby property and purchase of our Bristol property. As we were renting in Bristol during the process, we assumed that the distance could potentially cause delays but we were keen to utilise John M Lewis as we had such a good experience with them when we bought our first home. The service offered by Jacqueline and the team soon put our concerns aside as a lot of the process could be completed via their secure portals online and they were always contactable via phone if required. We ended up in a tricky chain but thanks to the efforts of Jacqueline everything eventually ended successfully.
Overall, a friendly, efficient and professional conveyancers that I couldn't recommend more.
