Defence
I first met with a representative of the company at the magistrate’s court where they advised me as a duty solicitor. My case was complex but from the outset they were knowledgeable, friendly but also honest with possible outcomes. When my case was moved to the magistrate’s I instructed them to work on my behalf. Throughout the whole process they kept me informed, where supportive and when my day in court came they where calming and fought my corner to get an outcome that I was comfortable with.

Had Clients Best Interests throughout
The legal team at Bell Lamb & Joynson provided excellent representation to my daughter recently. She was met by Darren Jones, Samantha Lack and Jim Smith and all three gave her time with professional and friendly advice that her family are extremely grateful for. Jim Smith's efforts were thorough and vital to the outcome gained and I would not hesitate to use this law firm for myself or recommend them to anyone else.

Exceptional Work from all involved in the case
When i first began working with this firm it was made aware to me that they work as a team and share cases, and i could not be more pleased with the result. The manner in which it has been dealt with was not only professional, but friendly at the same time. A remarkable amount of legal knowledge was demonstrated in not only interviews, but in court as well. I would highly recommend these solicitors and i couldn't have asked for a better team.

Excellent representation
Mike Leeman and Jim Smith supported me wholeheartedly through my criminal proceedings. They were both very clear in explaining legal jargon and processes, were available and swift in terms of questions and contact, and presented professionally and knowledgeably. Jim was instrumental in securing the best outcome I could have hoped for in court. The fees charges by the firm are extremely reasonable and transparent. Whilst I’m sure they are as competent in all legal fields they cover, I would highly recommending instructing these partners in particular in criminal law. Thank you for your outstanding service and representation.
