Many thanks to Janek Malysko and Megan Croydon Miles in assisting and guiding us through the purchase of our first home.
The process of buying a first property can be quite intimidating and complex, and Janek went above and beyond to support us in all the queries and doubts we had along the way. Being very professional and responsive, he ensured we were moving towards completion at a steady pace.
Thanks to this support we were able to be excited about becoming homeowners and keep calm knowing that professionals are taking care of the rest. We will be using GoodLaw Solicitors for all future matters and will recommend them to friends!
A representative from GoodLaw Solicitors LLP responded to this review on 03 December, 2024:
Dear Daryna, Thank you for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that Janek and Megan made your first home purchase smooth and reassuring. It’s wonderful to know their professionalism and support helped make the process less daunting. We look forward to assisting you again in the future and truly appreciate your recommendation! Best regards, Goodlaw Solicitors

Collected on:
Every step of the experience was hard and stressful. I felt like I was speaking to an AI machine, who had no customer account management training, and simply did not care or want to help me through the journey. These companies churn this process everyday, so should be offering to making things easier and offer expertise. For the customer, most people do a sales process rarely and it is quite daunting being given pages and pages of information. I did not feel like I had a helping hand at the other end of the email (they pretty much refused to pick up the phone). My contact, lacked attention to detail, often hadn't read things properly and was asking me things I had already answered. They never tried to build any kind of relationship, even when I said I was feeling a bit stressed. When I tried to set up a call to help things, he kept pushing back (talking, even if a quick phone call can clear things quickly and help to build a relationship). After nearly losing the sale, I gave up on my contact at Goodlaw and went directly to the vendors solicitor, and thankfully rescued the sale. They went on holiday without telling me, I felt patronised, they completely lost my trust, not reading things properly. They over complicated things. I can honestly say, they have no idea about the customer. It was utterly awful. I noted that he does not have any reviews on their website, maybe if I had someone else it would have been better.
A representative from GoodLaw Solicitors LLP responded to this review on 18 September, 2024:
Hi Natalie. I’m really sorry to hear about your difficult experience. It’s clear that the process was frustrating and stressful for you, and it’s disappointing to hear that you didn’t receive the level of support and attention you expected. Your feedback is valuable and highlights areas where we need to improve. If you’d like to discuss this further or if there’s anything we can do to address your concerns, please let us know. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we want to ensure that future clients have a better experience.

Julie
Collected on:
My Son, who has complex needs and disabilities suffered a potentially life changing injury due to the negligence of his previous Care Providers..
I was recommended to James by a friend who is a Solicitor in another field.
Words can’t truly express how grateful we are as a family for everything that James has done.
From the very first time of meeting him shortly after the accident had happened, he showed such kindness and understanding towards my son.
He is also an outstanding Solicitor… it has taken 5 years to reach the conclusion of our Case ( no fault of James)..
Finally in August of this Year my Son received his Compensation Award.
This will be So useful for him as he progresses through life, and..importantly to me his Mum , I feel pleased that there is recognition of his Suffering and some sort of justice has been achieved.
James was the Voice for my Son ..~ Thankyou So much 🌟
A representative from GoodLaw Solicitors LLP responded to this review on 05 September, 2024:
Dear Julie, Thank you for your heartfelt message. We’re deeply touched to hear that James’s support and dedication made a significant difference for your son and your family. We appreciate your trust and are grateful for the opportunity to assist. Best regards, Goodlaw Solicitors LLP

I recently met with Rachel Jones, a solicitor who represented GoodLaw Solicitors at their office in Brighton. I was greeted immediately by Rachel in a professional and friendly manner. I required her assistance with writing my will. The process of writing it was very straight-forward. Rachel gave me clear explanations, support, and assistance throughout the process. She was patient and empathetic, which enabled me to feel at ease and comfortable talking to her. I recommend GoodLaw Solicitors unreservedly and will always use their services for any legal matters that I may require in the future.

Costumer care from Janek and Megan was amazing, very easy to talk and all the questions were answered and explained. The process was extremely quick and easy. They kept in touch at least 2-3 times a week, gave us updates, we didn't have to chase them at all.
I had a bad experience before with another company the sale process took ages and we had to chance them for updates all the time.
This won't happen with Good law solicitors they are extremely professional and go above and beyond. We will definitely use them again. We are Very pleased with the process and would recommend in without any hesitation. Definitely gained a returning customer.
Huge thanks to Janek and Megan.

Truly excellent service from start to finish - almost 4 years! James King was highly professional; assembled a top team of experts; and kept us in touch throughout the long process. Sad circumstances under which we had dealings with GoodLaw, but James did us justice and is highly recommended.
