We had problems with our sale and purchase, but none caused by solicitor. She did everything she could to ease things along. Jacqueline gave us confidence it would be alright.

Exceptional Service

I’ve used John Lewis several times now and have always been extremely satisfied with the service. Jacqueline consistently goes above and beyond — I never had to chase or enquire about anything, as I was always kept fully informed. Her attention to detail and proactive communication make the entire experience seamless and stress-free.

Can't recommend high enough!

5

We cannot recommend Team Byrd high enough! Having moved areas and therefore looking for a new solicitor, I contacted a few conveyancing firms before being lucky enough to get a friendly, fast and reasonable quote for John M Lewis and it just got better and better. Nothing was too much trouble and we truly felt like Jacqui was with us every step of the way. Her refreshing approach, down to earth style was second to none. She never hesitated to pick up the phone (unheard of in our experience) to give us a quick update. Buying a new home is stressful but Jacqui was tenacious and did everything she could to get us over the final hurdle! Thank you Jacqui - we will forever be grateful!

Brilliant

5

After being let down after 6 weeks of my house purchase with another solicitor Jacqueline was recommended to me by a friend and she was fantastic. I’ve moved house a few times and non have been as seem-less as this. Jacqueline is calm and collected and I would absolutely recommend her and John M Lewis.

Purchasing a property- something that can be a stressful experience for most, this was actually a pleasant experience for us thanks to J M Lewis and Co. We cannot recommend Jackie Byrd highly enough! She was swift and efficient, friendly and professional, speedy and on the ball. Not one hiccup! She was very knowledgeable. Thank you so much for your services!!!

Excellent customer service

5

An amazing service! Our house sale and purchase was handled with such care and attention to detail. Jacqueline Byrd was brilliant and so responsive. We had a roller-coaster of a journey with chains falling through, but Jackie was always there to support, going over and above to sort things out for us. In the end, we were dealing with John M Lewis for over a year - but do not have one single bad thing to say about them! Highly recommend!

Jackie handled the purchase of our sale and I was extremely impressed by her.
We had a lot of challenges throughout the process but she always kept me posted of any issues. I knew I could always pick up the phone even if it was for a quick update. Thanks again Jackie from Carole and Jon

Jacqueline and team were great, helpful and kept me up to date.
However, the online form filling was awkward and inflexible. The explanatory notes often seemed as complicated as the topic being explained.

All I can say is WOW, thank you so much Jacqueline.

Me and my partner are first time buyers, but have never had to worry about the stress of buying a house, wondering what the next steps are or how the process will work. Jacqueline has been amazing at keeping us updated, informing us about the next steps throughout and what we need to do.

You hear of people having to constantly chase their solicitors, but this wasn’t the case at all. And we have just completed in 3 months!!

Thank you so much Jacqueline, we will be back in the future and recommending you!

I never leave a good review! But this solicitors deserve one. I have used them several times for services such as house purchases and will writing and I will never use anyone else. Friends, affordable, on the ball and fast. Jacqueline did my last house purchase and she was so fast and friendly, chasing me!

We have sold and brought a few properties over a 14yr period with JML and the service has always been friendly professional and efficient.
A special mention for Jacqueline who has been absolutely fantastic communicating and keeping us informed step by step. Her professionalism has been outstanding I only wish the buyers of our property had such an efficient lady such as Jacqueline working at their solicitors.
Plus a mention for receptionist Vanesa who is a lovely friendly lady to have on the front desk

I am such a big believer in good service being passed forward. My experience with this company has been nothing but excellent. When buying my first house, everyone warned me about “solicitor delays”. My solicitor, Jackie, was anything but a delay. She was extremely professional, thorough and efficient. At no stage was I unsure of anything and if I ever called, she was calling me back within a few hours. I found the price quoted to what I paid to be fair and well priced within the market. I honestly couldn’t thank her enough, she has been amazing through my house buying process and even when there were issues she was hellbent on making it work. Thank you so much to everyone in the team and I’ve really enjoyed my first few days in my new house knowing you’ve made it a lot easier and I will be passing on her details to anyone who is ready to buy a property.
