Would recommend.

Decided I needed a solicitor and I am so thankful and pleased I contacted Alun Jones and his team. Professional, friendly and really put me at ease. I felt so much better after the advice I was given and my problem was quickly resolved. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic Knowledge and Personal Service.

I highly recommend these solicitors for their exceptional professionalism combined with a personal, caring approach. You are treated with the utmost consideration, benefiting from their extensive legal knowledge and advice. They explain things clearly, making it easy to understand without needing a law degree, unlike some other solicitors. I will definitely engage their services again for any legal matters that require a solicitor. My sincere thanks go to everyone at Alun Jones Family Law Limited, particularly Michelle, Alun, and Angel.

Professional and Supportive - Excellent Service

After starting a divorce online with no real legal guidance through the process,  I was recommended to Alun. 

Alun gave me expert advice and took over the handling of the situation with the utmost professionalism, including measures to help ensure I would be safe. Alun was the greatest support throughout, he was always reassuring and supportive, and through every wobble I had he showed empathy, understanding, and compassion - while also including firm pep talks that made me feel stronger, more confident and empowered in not letting myself get walked over.

I have nothing but the best things to say about my experience with Alun Jones Family Law and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alun to anyone, his guidance achieved a fairer outcome than there had been prior to his involvement, and I will always be very very grateful.

A very disappointing experience

Please be careful with this company. They invoiced me 6 months after my case was closed with them. As I was not expecting an invoice I missed the email (I had never been late with payments). They added over £100 late fees for being 1 month late. Whilst the small print is in place, if you're not a solicitor and fail to read everything they honestly don't care. They made a nominal deduction in the late fees but even after explaining my situation as a self employed single parent the response was...

"I'm running a business here, didn't you read the small print, the courts would agree me, it's not my problem you missed your email"

I was spoken over, he wouldn't let me finish my sentences, came across as a bully and made a point of reiterating the law at me knowing full well I'm merely a civilian,

The solicitor dealing with my case no longer works for this firm. I have nothing but positive comments about her. She is a fantastic solicitor and her relationship management was second to none.

Solicitor = Good. Billing = Absolutely awful

Hannah did a good job, however this was totally over-shadowed by the totally awful billing which I feel was never totally resolved. This caused much stress for me. For this reason, I would never use them again.

Transparency & clear communication which was VERY QUICK!!!

I approached AJFL in July 2023 time to assist me with a messy divorce (Financial & Matrimonial element), from the get-go I was provided quick, clear and jargon free advice/communication - this continued throughout my case!! My solicitor throughout was Rhian Jones, absolutely amazing!! I cannot recommend Rhian enough and if/when need arises in future, I will 10000% go back to Rhian. She was extremely clear in all communication, she listened to me and really understood my case, for example, very late on in the case information came up that I didn't think Rhian was aware of, but evidently she had listened and noted this from our very early conversations. What impressed me most was the speed of replies to communication, very often within the hour, even when vast amounts of information/data were involved. This assured and gave me confidence that Rhian cared and understood me and my situation and I just wasn't a "Case" or "Folder" sitting on her desk. I implicitly trust Rhian after my experience with her these last few months and I have already recommended AJFL & in particular Rhian to several people looking for similar legal services.

Thank AJFL and Rhian, I trusted you in to navigate me through a difficult, complex, life changing process and you didn't once let me down.... 'Thank You'.

Absolutely Outstanding!

I contacted AJ Family Law to help me with a difficult separation involving children. Hannah was assigned to my case who I quickly discovered to be one of the most impressive and competent people I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Her knowledge and expertise were of great reassurance during an exceptionally difficult period. Communication was excellent, emails and calls responded to quickly, translating my (sometimes rambling!) concerns and issues into sound legal advice and effective correspondence. I truly felt supported at every step and never once doubted the service I received. Ultimately, we received the result I wanted. I could not be happier and would recommend Hannah to anyone who has found themselves in a similar position, she will fight your corner!

Financial consent order

Rhian Jones was instructed to arrange the financial consent order for my divorce being recommended by a friend. There were a number of difficult hurdles to overcome but Rhian's tenacity to reach the outcome needed, her efficiency, her friendly and approachable manner, her clear and prompt communication and her ability to manage my expectations made a potentially emotional and stressful process a joy. I would highly recommend Rhian to anyone seeking family legal representation.

Financial Consent Order - Proceeding Divorce

I had previously used a different solicitor before coming to AJFL, I wasn't satisfied I was being represented in the best way and needed to find a new representation. AJFL was recommended by someone who was in a similar position. I reached out to Rhian who offered impartial advice immediately through emails and invited me to a free face to face meeting to discuss and outline what I required representation with. Rhian was exceptional upon meeting and within a short time frame I felt confident that I would be represented in the way I needed. My case took some difficult twists and turns throughout (from the other party's side) leading to my case being complex. I was offered a fixed price fee to conclude a FCO and during this time Rhian was extremely responsive, always answering emails, questions and providing legal advice effectively. Rhian and the team at AJFL went over and above the original ask, provided more support and legal advice that we originally thought, never once increased costs or made me feel like it was to benefit them financially, they gave me reassurance I was being reasonable within my FCO and helped me enforce when the order was breached. In the nicest possible way I hope to not ever need these services again however if you're going through a divorce, need guidance and legal support in terms of financial consent orders and want solid, robust and exceptional representation for a very reasonable fee PLEASE use AJFL! I honestly couldn't of got through the last year without the support of AJFL team.

Alun helped me to extricate myself from a joint mortgage after a separation which had made practical issues extremely fraught and unnecessarily complex. Alan was personable, reassuring and knowledgeable, and he guided me through the whole experience with skill and compassion. Alun managed to secure a result that was wholly satisfactory for all parties, and throughout the process I found him informative and reliable; he sought to do all the work necessary at the least possible expense to myself, whilst still making himself available whenever I needed him. I would recommend Alun's service to anyone needing a family lawyer for whatever the issue may be. I also found him to be a genuinely nice guy on the occasions when we had a meeting. Thanks again to you Alun, and the rest of the staff there.

I was referred to this firm by a friend who had used them a few years ago. I dealt with Rhian Jones and would absolutely recommend her. She was incredibly efficient and knowledgeable and helped me achieve the outcome I was hoping for.
