Flat purchase

We had to purchase a ground floor flat for my Mother due to the appalling condition of the flat she was renting and her health conditions..Bell Lamb & Joynson were recommended and proved to be a great recommendation. Lily was our main solicitor she was very professional helpful friendly and VERY understanding of our situation she was patient and answered our emails, calls in good time Lily explained everything to us and we would recommend BLJ in fact we already have.

Finally a excellent solicitor

We have had numerous issues in the past with other conveyancers and solicitors and it was a nice change to deal with BLJ. From the start they were efficient and communicated effectively. They were prompt with replying to our messages and the completion went through with no issues. Will only be using BLJ in the future

Excellent Service

Claire and her assistant Alex were great dealing with my transfer and remortgage. Nothing was too much trouble. Even in spite of the sometimes silly questions I asked.

I would definitely recommend Claire for any conveyancing matters in the future.

Amazing service, got the sale through very fast. Lauren & Rachael helped guide us through the process and when it got to the latter end of the sale they went to extra mile to ensure we completed. Top quality solicitor.

Our conveyancer, David Meyer was the upmost professional during his work on the purchase of our house. As first time buyers he expertly explained every legal process to us and ensured we understood all that was involved. I cannot recommend him enough. Jacob and Olivia
