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

For various reasons out of our and MJP Law control this was a very stressful experience for us. Lucy Norris & Quinton Jordan helped us through the process by providing an efficient and timely service when needed as things changed and advice to prevent escalating costs.

Conveyancing for 11 Ashridge Avenue

Tracy Black and Kelly Robson handled our conveyancing very well. We did have an issue with the seller's solicitor, which they dealt with as best they could and as soon as it was resolved quickly expedited the exchange and completion on the same day, which was much appreciated.

I’ve just purchased a property and
MJP Law did the conveyancing and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Martin and Connie and the team were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Highly professional, helpful and always willing to go the extra mile to help me find and secure the right home. Nothing was ever too much trouble, their communication and support throughout the process made everything so much smoother. Compared to some other solicitors I have dealt with Martin and Connie from MJP Law stood out for their professionalism, smart presentation and genuine Courtesy. It was truly a pleasure working with them, and thanks to their dedication I’m now the proud owner of an amazing new home. Highly recommended.
Many thanks
Mark

Friendly and fast service

We used MJP Law for both our property sale and purchase. The process took over a year due to the chain collapsing and our initial sale/ purchase falling through so it was important to have confidence in our solicitor and Tracy and Kelly at MJP were supportive, transparent, responsive and helpful throughout. When we were eventually able to move, it needed to happen quickly and they went above and beyond to ensure that the sale went through in time. We really appreciated them and would highly recommend them.

100% Recommend MJP LAW

We have just bought our first house and used MJP Law as our solicitors.
I initially enquired online and received a super quick and informative response from Tania Howie and to be honest, her friendly correspondence was a big deciding factor in us choosing MJP Law.

Claire Lawson was our solicitor and she was outstanding throughout, even our estate agents said how fab she was! We never had to chase anything, we were kept informed and in the loop throughout. Claire made out first ever dealings with a solicitor easy and we are so thankful to her and MJP Law.

We highly recommend and will definitely use again.

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.
