Professional and Helpful Local Solicitor

We met with Will in our local MJP Law Office, where he listened, gave good advice and clarified a number points regarding the preparation of mirror wills for us both. Will was professional, courtious and pleasant to talk to. We returned to the office for signatures and witnessing. Both engagements were unstressed, excecuted on time and without drama.

Many thanks to Will and his colleagues for a good experience.

Awful service from start to ....... who knows when

Have had dealings with MJP law for over seven years now and can’t believe this firm is still in business. Their staff turnover is massive with no communication between the staff leaving and taking over your case. They don’t reply to emails and phone calls and we have had to theaten to take them to the omnbusman three times now. Over the seven years we have had to deal with incompetence, lip service and false promises.
Couldn’t leave zero stars

Flat Purchase

This review is for a different branch.

Ours was not a straightforward flat purchase, due to us being Spanish residents. We were very lucky to have Claire Lawson dealing with the purchase. Claire and everyone at MJP Law,
were so friendly and really were helpful, efficient and supportive when it came to dealing with any problems that we had. I would definitely use this company again and would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Client Review

This review is for a different branch.

Overall a good experience. Staff are responsive and polite. A couple of last minute realisations regarding awareness of some details of the conveyance process including my personal legal liability in ensuring a family member vacates a property prior to completion were untimely and unsettling. Gabriel and Connie deserve a special mention.

Just what you want from a solicitor doing conveyancing - smooth running, quick and always at the end of the phone when needed. Thanks to Lucy Norris and Quentin Jordan. The best experience so far.

Great service from start to finish A*

This review is for a different branch.

I chose MJP Law this time as the office was easy to access rather than to rely on mailing documents etc.
From initial contact (on line) to completion both Kelly Robson and Tracy Black have made the process easy to understand and smooth. Kelly has always been happy to explain the process which means it has been much less stressful than I thought.
The Offices I popped in to , both Wimborne and Kinson, were so helpful , friendly and professional it reassured me that my choice of firm was correct.
Thank you so much

I found my experience at MJP Law pleasant. The receptionist was welcoming. Lucy Haslam, the solicitor who dealt with my will, discussed very clearly all of the areas I needed to be aware of to produce a will to my wishes and peace of mind. Thank you.

Don’t be fooled by the previous reviews which anyone can leave. We wish we had never got into a contract with them, it has been so bad and I think that before long they will end up being reported to the law society ….. again. Someone working in a supermarket is more efficient than these people. If they hadn’t taken so much money off us I would think they were working in a supermarket as well due to the amount of time they take to do anything ….. except charging you of course.
