MJP Law Reviews 69

As a beneficiary of my mother’s estate, MJP have been instructed by siblings who are self appointed executors to carry out my mother’s Will instructions.
They have made it extremely difficult from the start to get any information or transparency in forcing us to hire a solicitor to pay to see our own mothers will, something a professional Law firm would have done without question to show every beneficiary the right to see their parents final wishes, which proves they are clearly money oriented in making it difficult to see what you should be lawfully able for nothing and this is from the mouth of a retired solicitor.

Letters and emails have been sent multiple times without any recognition or response.
It’s clear they are just milking the situation as long as possible, for us much as possible causing more grief and stress to an already difficult situation.

If I had the choice there is no way I’d of ever chose this firm if they were the last solicitor’s on earth.
You have been warned!

I agree with the previous reviewer that MJP LAW are INCOMPETENT and UNPROFESSIONAL and probably the worst solicitors I have encountered or had to deal with. They messed up and delayed our families inheritance and took instructions for a will from a carer and not our parents. The carer exploited their position and changed our parents will to gain more money and finances and property have gone missing and MJP Law has refused to provide any transparency about finances or missing property. There is no transparency or accountability when it comes to Financial matters. It appears they may have also messed up a property sale and won't confirm the sale price or other details requested. I am concerned that our parents estate is being eroded by these solicitors who appear to be more interested in abusing the position to make money, than complying with the rights and laws of family members. They even appear to be deliberately creating a situation that will cause a legal conflict just so they can exploit their position and gain more money from it. There are reviews on other sites complaining that clients who put a negative review on MJP Laws website only to find that MJP Law takes it down, leaving only favourable reviews on their website, which is far from Kosher or transparent and very misleading to unsuspecting potential clients. When the reviewer puts the review on another site it was alleged that MJP Law offered them money to take it down. If you need will work or probate, conveyance or any legal matter, please think very carefully before you chose a solicitor. As one prevue reviewer said, DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THESE CLOWNS WHO HAVE NO INTEGRITY OR CREDIBILITY AND JUST WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY IN MY VIEW. I would give them no stars if I could!

MJP LAW these INCOMPETENT , UNPROFESSIONAL , UNRELIABLE wannabe litigators WILL waste your time. Our Experience left us amazed how these clowns have the gall to advertise on their website > ““We offer the kind of legal service we would want if we were you!!”” ~ and then they provide us the kind of “Service NO ONE would want”
you’ will find someone claiming to be a “Director and Head of Conveyancing” offering you Quotes for work that he has absolutely no intentions to ever carry out.
After giving theses idiots the go-ahead with the Quote when eventually you realise they haven’t even started the work and you “Try” to ask what’s going on… you then get your emails , phone calls , and messages left at reception completely ignored while this so-called “Director” makes himself indefinitely “Unavailable”!!
Unprofessional Ignorant time waster…
Oh! and this so called “Company Director” does not even possess a secretary for clients to liaise with OR the common decency to bother letting you know he has changed his mind continuing with the work he “Quoted”.
He just leaves you “believing” the work is in progress when he had no intentions start!! Wow…
But before you get to experience this “MJP Law’s Special Service!!” you’ll have to get past this most pedantic young man on reception with a rude surly attitude that beggars belief any one would ever position public facing representing any one!! DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON THESE CLOWNS..

We had a great experience with Tania and her Team. Very informative and have taken time to offer more information we can benefit from. Very kind and professional approach, thank you so much for your time offered to us.

Great firm. Great experience. Thank you Madeleine Longland.

My experience with MJP Law during my house purchase and sale was disappointing. They were slow, often requested documents I had already provided, and made errors in figures and calculations. Communication was poor, with some queries never receiving a response and a few never replied to at all.

There was also a discrepancy between the initial quote (Based on Dorset area conveyancing) and final invoice (London), which was frustrating given they knew from the very start my transaction was in London. No discount offered despite the above.

In a separate case they handled for me, things went more smoothly, but billing errors persisted. When calling to make a payment, the amount quoted was sometimes higher than the invoice, and I had to dispute overcharges myself.

They also seemed to cause delays in exchanging contracts. If you choose to work with them, I’d recommend double-checking everything, as they are prone to mistakes.

This Law Firm obtained 'Power of Attorney' over our Uncle's estate, which in itself would not be a problem because his wellbeing is our only concern. Our Uncle has dementia and we are concerned for his well being.

However, MJP Law ignored telephone enquiries from my Dad two years ago and only replied on email to claim that our Uncle does not know us and does not want to talk to us.

They may be telling the truth about this, but why they ignore emails and telephone messages casts doubt over their ethics and therefore looks very suspicious.

MJP don't care that our Uncle still has family and seem content to ensure communications are severed between us. Perhaps their only priority is a steady flow of cash into their Law Firm.

We could not recommend Gabbie at MJP law enough! Gabbie has been fantastic throughout quite a stressful first time buy for us. She is super responsive and talked us through every step of the process and really fought our corner when the chain was messing around. Thank you so much Gabbie! We will be recommending to all our friends and family

Fantastic solicitors, never too busy to give updates and solve any problems which may arise.
Highly recommend

MJP Law was extremely helpful in assisting me with writing my will. Emma took the time to explain the options, as well as listening to my needs.

Gaby was absolutely brilliant. Very thorough and communicative under quite difficult conditions and a complicated transaction. Thank you so much.

Excellent service provided by MJP Law and especially Gabrielle Bowie who acted on our behalf during our recent house move. She was thorough and kept things moving along and we were kept fully informed all during the process. We would recommend her to anyone thinking of requiring a solicitor.

Recently used MJP Law for conveyancing ( sale and purchase ) - In these trying covid times, both Charlotte and Shelley were outstanding, I would recommend them to anyone looking for great service at a reasonable cost

Have recently used the services of MJP Law and wanted to say how helpful they were. Emma Stagg helped us enormously and would recommend her and the company to anyone.

Absolutely fantastic law firm. local to me which is always a plus and staff who are professional, friendly and straight to the point who get the job done. I used them to purchase a property and My acting solicitor Gabby was utterly brilliant. would not hesitate to recommend this law firm.

MJP LAW were recommended to me to deal with probate from our first meeting and through the whole process I was always kept updated and the communication was excellent. The house conveyancing was also carried out by the same company and that was carried out with no problem, The end cost for dealing with the whole process was very competitive, Thankyou MJP LAW
