Theobald will/probate

JA and it's staff helped us when we were in dire need and in a very complex situation. Their assistance was faultless and the resolution we needed was obtained because of their hard work. Jane and Jessica in particular were always on hand to support us, answer any queries and certainly went above and beyond at times. They were always professional, courteous and polite. I can't thank them enough and JA would be my first port-of-call for any similar matter that should come my way in the future.

Ref Divorce Review

After a long three years of going through a painful divorce, Emma and I never thought we would see the day when we finally came to sign the final paperwork ending a 37 year marriage.
Emma has been caring and compassionate. We built an excellent rapport with each other. Emma restored my confidence in me as she guided me through the right outcome for me .
Emma is professional, efficient, effective and pragmatic with her advice.
Emma is ‘Excellent’ in her role and is a credit to the company .
Thankyou Emma for everything .

Professional, considerate, expert lawyers

Whenever one has to call upon the services of a solicitor, it is often in times of trouble, or having to deal with unfamiliar circumstances. At the start of my legal process, I had feelings of anxiety and apprehension, but through the understanding, calm and professional guidance of Emma Mitchell the whole procedure was seamless and the desired end result achieved. I would not hesitate to recommend Emma or Johnson Astills, as they are top notch lawyers, skilled and proficient, but also kind and considerate in what I suppose can be a hard-nosed industry.

Making a will at Johnson Astills

Making a will sounds like a daunting task but Kirsty Gasson at Johnson Astills made the experience not only painless but also enjoyable. The process was expertly managed and I'm very happy with the result.

Will Writing Service

Kate and Emily were amazing from the initial phone call to completion. Kate set out the different types of wills and how the process works. Kate and Emily were so friendly and welcoming. There was no overload of jargon. They explained everything in simple language that was easy to follow. Their communication was great and anything that needed to be checked they got back to me very quickly. The whole process was so easy and hassle free - there was no pressure to have answers or make decisions. All the staff there were lovely and friendly when I arrived. Amazing experience with them and would recommend.

Outstanding Service

I started my conveyancing with Johnson Astills in January and completed my house purchase in May. From start to finish, Manni was clear, professional, friendly and helped me to understand everything that was involved in the conveyancing process. She answered every question I had very quickly, and was very prompt in responding to the seller’s side whenever they came back with responses to enquiries. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for better with Manni and Johnson Astills, and will definitely return to this firm when I next need a conveyancer.
