Judge & Priestley Reviews 

Good Communication and it didn't cost the earth (sale of property)

We sadly can't recommend these solicitors as they were slow to respond to questions or provide updates during the conveyancing process. We ended up receiving more timely information from the sellers and the estate agents than our solicitors. The solicitors also tended to only reply to some of our questions and we had to repeat several questions multiple times. We also found out later they had shared some incorrect information.

Why is it impossible to get in contact with these solicitors? I sent multiple emails made multiple phone calls and nothing is getting resolved? Kerry Jaeger needs to be sacked putting people's lives on hold because she doesn't want to do any work

All staff very helpful and friendly, good service, would recommend j&p many thanks

Not having used J & P before, we were very pleased with the experience.
Russell Ali was very pleasant and efficient, taking time to explain the options available.
Everything was achieved very quickly, much to our satisfaction.
We would thoroughly recommend.

Simple efficient process

Good service overall and keeping me informed at all times during the sale. Would be happy to recommend.

Dreadful! I've been trying to get a lease extended since June 2022. Their staff keep leaving and not passing the information to anyone else. I've tried to make a complaint. So fingers crossed. But give them a wide berth!

My business was dealt with in a thoroughly professional & courteous manner by Kamila. She explained everything in an easy to understand way, and answered all my questions. I would recommend this company for anyone seeking expert legal advice.

Quite simply fantastic from start to finish. Kavitha and her team are amazing. Will definitely use them again.

Chris Mills and his team were great in assisting us to draft joint wills. They gave clear advice, timely delivery and were very personable. Highly recommended.

From start to finish the level of service, attention to detail, & communication in relation to our house sale was abysmal, with our solicitor finding ways to blame others and gaslight us for her lack of engagement, errors, and general poor service.
At each step of the sale of our property we had to chase for engagement, with emails and phone calls going unanswered. We got to the point where we had to escalate to senior partners in the firm to get any engagement and focus from our solicitor.
There was an abundance of errors and issues with contracts and documentation, from the first set of forms we received, to the contracts containing errors, the TF1 forms needing to be returned for correction (which our solicitor had signed off as correct), and the completion statement containing basic errors.
There were delays and oversights in the enquiry process that we believe delayed our exchange, and errors with the bank transfer form when we were asked to review it.
Our recommendation is to avoid - we will not be returning customers.

Had dealings with these solicitors via my insurance company. The claim was going to go to court. I was told that if I booked a day off work I could claim back my loss of earning. The defendant pulled out the day before. It was too late to cancel my day off. I was then told that as I did not attend court then I could not claim back loss of earnings.

I put in a complaint which was reviewed internally, was told it was not within the companies control. My point they seemed to have missed is at no point was I told that even if I won that there would be a scenario where I was out of pocket a days pay.

So be warned if you are not fully made aware of the risks when attending court then the company will not take any responsibility. Would never use or recommend the firm.

Terrible first experience - rude receptionist unhelpful. Completed an online enquiry which was ignored. I then made a phone call, the receptionist was short, unhelpful. I would not consider them for any future business.

Terrible solicitors, my insurance paid them for a claim, but they "couldn't find the payment", and fraudulantly sent me a county court claim, trying to get paid twice! They are fraudsters, no regard for the innocent, they should be banned from practicing! The stress they caused, depression, my menal health and can't be bothered to apologise for their lazines and stupidity

All went good and it is fabulous to do all communications through email so each party could work on tasks at their convenience . %100 recommend to anyone

A very personable service from the team, that saw thru a, not so easy, transaction due to an overseas Freeholder.

Judge & Priestley were recommended to me by a friend. Brooke Stevens from the Sidcup office dealt with my sale very efficiently. I could always contact them either by email or phone, and they were consistently pleasant and reassuring to deal with. I would use them again and I'm very happy to recommend them to anyone buying or selling a property.

Amazing service. I just had to leave a review. Professional Solicitors. Edward at Judge & Priestley was excellent. Kept me up to date, answered queries, responded to emails and made my legal process easier. I felt I could ask any questions and given advice of process step by step. Also reception answers phone quickly and thanks to them I never felt overwhelmed with waiting.

Dealt with motor accident claim. Almost no feedback from them. Seemed to have lost track of where they were in the process. I would avoid this firm.
