Would not recommend this company.
Would not recommend this company.
They pick and choose.
Who they wish to deal with.
After having a free session on a Tuesday
Evening.
Told by receptionist to have all my information with me.
I was told by the solicitor that he did not want to take my money off me.
And would not fight my case with Bassetlaw
Law. Housing Department.
The last comment from this solicitor was
Bassetlaw are a nightmare.
Push me towards Citzen advice.
Said the same to the lady that before myself.
A tough choice
Faced with a time-sensitive legal matter, I was able to access an expert in the field within 24hrs of my initial contact. The process was explained to me in great detail which avoided any unnecessary anxiety and delay. Within 48hrs my position was clear and the matter was well down the path of resolution. I received updates, even though the period of time was relatively short, which kept my confidence high. From start to successful conclusion, I felt that I was in very capable, and importantly empathetic, hands throughout.
Very unprofessional,shocking…
Very unprofessional,shocking communication and every time you need to speak to your solicitor obout somthing there “working from home”,the procedure for buying or selling anything is so slow it’s painful.will never use again.

Probate matters very poorly handled
Probate matters very poorly handled. As joint excecutor on my mother in law's estate I thankfully took the initiative to close accounts etc and produce the accounts for the estate . The lawyer I was dealing with was relatively inexperienced and made number of mistakes, was not proactive and lacked a lot of common sense that the resulted in the estate being would up far slower than expected. Also redid the accounts in a different format which was completely unneccesary as I have experience at winding up two other estates in the last few years. I did about 75% of the work and the fees charged in my view were extortionate compared to what other lawyers have charged for similar work where I have been an executor. I challenged this and got no reply which says it all!

From initial start of the process the service recieved was outstanding..clear and effective communication and extremely helpful.

My employment circumstances changed very suddenly and I required legal advice to review a redundancy settlement over a very tight timescale. Andrew was not only professional, acted swiftly, he also provided much needed reassurance which was greatly appreciated. I could not recommend Jones & Co solicitors enough.
Reece wall at jones and Co
Reece at jones and co is a star. (She/her) The most responsive solicitor and a perfect match for my solicitor requirements when buying and selling a property. Prompt, communicative , professional and honest. A life long returner for me.
Professional efficient friendly service
Greatly appreciated the recent work with Rob Newby and assistant Rachel (wills and probates). We had complex issues with a family trust and had tight deadlines. Rob was brilliant, responsive and helpful with all my questions, communications by email and phone were excellent and timely, and the work was done very quickly and efficiently.
I cannot thank Jones & Co Solicitors…
I cannot thank Jones & Co Solicitors enough for their guidance and support over the last couple of years.
From the outset, they were professional, knowledgeable and highly responsive. The team kept me and my family informed at every stage, explained everything clearly which has taken the element of stress away allowing us to manage our situations much easier.
Each member of the team I have contacted, whether by phone, email or in person have been incredibly helpful and a pleasure to work with.
I would not hesitate to recommend Jones & Co Solicitors to anyone in need of reliable and efficient legal support.
Not recommended
Having been a client of Jones and Co Solicitors, I sadly cannot, in all good conscience, recommend them to anyone.

Great All Round Service
If you want some one to guide you through what could be a daunting experience then I would highly recommend Jones & Co.
Philip Armstrong was extremely professional and informative without being overly formal making us feel relaxed throughout
He covered every question and area we had concerns about and made suggestions on matters we hadn’t considered
I must also mention Jasmine who promptly dealt with any queries and emails along the way
All in all great customer service throughout
Couldn’t have been more helpful in sorting my refundancy
Couldn’t have been more helpful in sorting my redundancy settlement. Very happy.
We completed ahead of schedule!
This is the second time we've used Jones & Co for conveyancing and I'd have to say their service is absolutely outstanding. Both times we've been represented by Gill Hempstock, who's knowledge and professionalism has been second to none and without a doubt the very reason we have, and will continue to recommend Jones & Co to absolutely everyone. Gill kept us fully informed throughout the entire process and quickly put our mind at ease answering any questions we had. We couldn't be more grateful. Thankyou!
Wills and probate to take 3 years to…
Wills and probate to take 3 years to settle my parents estate. No fixed fee but the bill is based on time taken. Gareth Day unorganised and false promises and described to me as a Swan (elegant and sophisticated on the surface but below the water line unorganised and almost out of control). Opening letter from the firm gave timelines to settle the estate of 6 to 12 months, probate came back after 6 months which is normal but Gareth’s work took a further 2.5 years to complete, lost paperwork, signatures for investments requested multiple times and false promises. Be very careful when choosing your solicitors for such an emotional event in your life. I would not recommend.

Legally and Professionally Amazing.
Highly recommend Jones & Co. Ollerton branch, for the depth of knowledge and expertise that we needed when preparing
family Trust and Probate.
Mr Charles Daysh, explained very patiently
the process to benefit our situation. Every aspect we worried about, was covered legally and professionally and we can’t thank him enough.
Also Joe, and Emmy thank you for making us feel ‘looked after and welcome’
Finding Jones & Co., was like finding sunshine
on a dark day.

I had a very disappointing experience with this conveyancing firm. The solicitor handling my case was unprofessional, uncommunicative, and generally unhelpful throughout the process.
I would not use this firm again and would not feel confident recommending them to others.

Go elsewhere!
It as taken a solicitor three years to sort out two relatives Wills at this company in Retford. I am no expert, but, i am sure it shouldn't have taken this long to sort! It took another solicitor approx' six MONTHS to sort two Wills/Probate out so why it took so long with our cases, i don't know! On a house sale, we didn't receive any correspondence from the conveyancer to keep us Updated Until i contacted them! Surely it is not down to the grieving clients to Push for a closure but we Had to because it took too long! It is okay doing a Will with them but when people are grieving They need it sorting has soon as possible, not eighteen months later!
From a unhappy ex client that will not be Recommending this Company to Anybody!!!
