Thank you Geraldine for all your help, support and guidance on the purchase of our first commercial property, we really do appreciate everything you have done for us.
By keeping us informed and responding to every email I sent throughout what ended up being a much longer process than anyone expected, we felt extremely supported and as though we had the best team on our side.
We will be recommending you.

Stuart Knox acted on our behalf in the purchase of a commercial property. I would highly recommend him and his team.
He displayed in-depth knowledge of not only commercial property law but the specific geography and aspects to take into account.
Stuart understood how important this project is to us as a family and I always felt that he had our best interests at heart, not just as a commercial client but as someone who cares about what his clients are aiming to achieve which was brilliant.
Thanks Stuart, we couldn't have done it without you.
We will of course be recommending you to anyone who asks us who we used to buy a bank!
A representative from Thornton Jones Solicitors responded to this review on 22 July, 2025:
Dear Lucy, Thank you for your thoughtful and heartfelt feedback. We’re thrilled to hear that Stuart provided not only expert legal support but also genuine care and understanding of your goals. It means a great deal to know you felt truly supported throughout such an important purchase. Best regards, Thornton Jones Solicitors

Making a will can be a challenging experience but not when being guided through the process by Liz Fyfe. Professional, informed, empathetic and efficient are just some of the words to describe the experience. Liz is impressive and outstanding in everyway - can highly recommend!

Thornton jones dealt with the legal aspect of both selling and buying my new home.From the beginning they where clear with what I would be expected to pay and also both their and my obligations in the whole process.
My questions were answered quickly and politely with professionalism at all times even when some of the questions where silly.Rachelle and Alison made a really stressful time run smoothly.I would use the firm again and would recommend.

It wasn't an easy purchase, there were quite a few challenges along the way but Stuart and Geraldine were extremely knowledgable, supportive and responsive, I really felt as though they were on our side as their clients.
Thank you, we will be recommending you when people asked who we used.

We can’t thank Shelley Wales from Thornton Jones Solicitors highly enough for the expert negotiating she did for us throughout my daughter’s legal separation. Shelley was speedy and efficient with communications and utterly professional, her written legal wordings were concise and on point and her advice was always legally grounded. She lead us through the process with compassion and understanding and we eventually reached a fair result. We highly recommend Shelley, Emma, Claire ( from Garforth) and her team to anyone going through a difficult financial break up and separation.
A representative from Thornton Jones Solicitors responded to this review on 17 July, 2025:
Thank you so much, Nicki, for your generous and thoughtful feedback! We’re truly glad to hear that Shelley’s support, alongside Emma, Claire, and the team in Garforth, made a positive difference during such a difficult time. It means a lot to know their expertise, compassion, and professionalism helped you and your daughter reach a fair outcome. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated!

I used Thorton Jones to sell and buy my house. Claire and Holly were amazing! They made, what can be a stressful experience, as smooth as possible. They were approachable and allowed me to ask questions without me feeling silly. They were clear and straight forward. Would 1000% recommend. I am a very happy customer 😄
