Services
With three offices in the UK, our head office in Manchester, a full service office in London and one of our specialist family law teams in Liverpool we have a team in excess of 600 Partners and staff. JMW aims to offer an entirely new approach to the provision of legal services. We train our people on the importance of quality and efficiency to help them understand client's needs and the best way to meet their expectations. We are proud of our northern roots and heritage, and consider it important to give back to our local community.
Businesses will often require legal advice on a wide range of issues and for many different reasons. At JMW, our business solicitors are here to help you achieve the outcome you seek as cost-and-time effectively as possible, allowing you to get on with your other responsibilities safe in the knowledge that your legal concerns are in reliable, experienced hands.
If you are looking to move or manage large sums of money on behalf of banking institutions or other financial companies, you will need to contact an expert banking solicitor. Moving money has many legal implications attached, and even the smallest mistakes have the potential to cause huge problems in the legal process that can ultimately lead to financial loss.
Well-drafted contracts can provide a business with certainty that deals will deliver all the benefits and revenues that are anticipated. They can also help prevent costly litigation if problems arise, and can protect businesses if a third party seeks to deviate from an agreed deal. At JMW, we always strive to help our clients avoid litigation and the cost and disruption this can lead to, and well-drafted contracts represent one of the most effective ways of achieving this.They ensure each party has a fair and equitable outcome, providing they meet their obligations.

Massive thanks to Lana Parker-Yates for her help with our purchase. Her professionalism was top notch. She was so patient, very responsive and kept us in the loop throughout the process. On the basis of my positive experience with Lana, I would definitely recommend JMW.

We have used JMW for years but this time it was for the sale of our forever home. The journey wasn't plain sailing due to the vendor but Beth and Amanda were amazing at keeping us up to date, keeping us informed of all eventualities, getting searches and contracts back on time and just generally being super patient with us whilst we worried like mad. Havinh a good solicitor makes a huge difference when buying a house and I couldn't reccommend anyone better than the JMW team. Thanks Guys!

We used the services of JMW for the purchase of our first house. Although the process can be daunting, Joanne and the team at JMW did an excellent job of progressing things quickly and being super responsive (unlike many others!). I would highly recommend their services and we would certainly use those again one day if needed.

Just completed on my house purchase and Craig was fantastic throughout. It was a lengthy transaction with complex issues regarding the title of the garden. Craig kept me updated at every stage and always responded to every email and query promptly. Would definitely recommend.

I have had fantastic customer experience during the two times I hired JMW's services for buying and selling my property. In particular, I am very grateful to Beth Kirkham who has always been so responsive and helpful. Beth is an absolute star.

I would just like to thank Layla Atha for making the purchase of my first property such a pleasure; Joanna and Julie have been great also. Layla is an absolute asset to JMW. She has constantly updated me in the process; at no time have I had to chase her for an update - I couldn't recommend Layla and JMW enough! See you again in a few-years for the sale;

Thanks to Amanda Priest who handled my flat sale. Amanda provided sound advice throughout the transaction and was always available to provide guidance and advice when needed. I would happily recommend Amanda and JMW solicitors.

James Duggan just supported us with a mortgage refinance in record time. The communication, largely digitally, was very good, including the JMW app which made it easy to follow the required steps and know when the ball was and was not in your court. Will definitely come back to JMW if/when we need a refinance.

During our property sale Jodie Reilly, Jessica and Lucy were invaluable in a slow, laborious process. Being due to covid restrictions and a slow and at times unresponsive buyer solicitor. Jodie and team were always friendly, professional and responsive. They were patient when dealing with my husband and I who are techno novices. We received excellent service from a comitted team. Highly recommended.

Absolutely brilliant, we were able to complete on a property in under two months using JMW, despite our original solicitor having to isolate, another member of the team picked it up without hesitation & delay. They are helpful, professional, competitively priced & communicated everything so efficiently, saving us so much time. We will definitely be using them again in the future. Thank you Bethany, Holleh & team.

I have had an amazing experience with Beth and Amanda who handled the conveyancing of our home. They were attentive and responded as necessary. At no time were we let down in the process although because of our own situation, it seemed to take forever. Their professionalism was greatly appreciated. We sent them some flowers as a token of gratitude, such was our pleasure of the service offered. Great full thanks.

Sad to have bad experience with JMW. I live in Singapore, recently my property going in the stage of completion. This is my first property purchase in UK and i need guidance. But the lawyers are not helpful and not responsive to questions at all. I thought getting a bank loan is the most time consuming and difficult part, but ended up is my own legal representative is the one causing most of the delay and make me feel like I am alone.

Back to early days of purchase, I noticed that the floor plan in the contract is different from what it supposed to be. I didn't sign it and trigger them a few times but didn't manage to sort out the issue back then. With time goes, I had also forgotten this floor plan discrepancies issue. Till lately it's going to handover, I realise the floor plan shown in my contract is still showing the "wrong" one.

But after clarification with developer, apparently developer had changed the layout without informing me. The layout changed from a 2BR to 1BR and different location in site plan, although the unit number and unit size still remain the same as in original contract. After some consideration, i still decided to take it and move on. Because i truly believe in this project and the potential of Manchester to excel.

However now i am again stuck with the deficiency of lawyers doing things. The whole experience is bad, and it makes me wanted to give up the purchase. I am a realtor in Singapore, representing many of the UK developers to sell their projects in Singapore/ Worldwide. I would never wanna refer my clients and will also strongly advice my agency to avoid JMW as representative!

My partner and I recently instructed Stephanie Cairns at JMW for the purchase of our first home. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a conveyancing solicitor. She made the whole process feel so straight forward. Thank you!

Had a great experience with JMW buying a house as a first time buyer. Team was professional, friendly, and efficient. Had the typical stress of buying a house from brokers being useless to pushy sellers in a separate chain although Amanda and Beth always had my back and were in full control of the situation. Made the entire experience significantly less stressful knowing you have a competent and approachable conveyancer team behind your purchase. Needless to say, we completed on time for a price which is significantly more competitive than other conveyancer services. Would definitely recommend!

I had a very good experience dealing with JMW from start to finish of selling my property. I wish to send a big thank you to my conveyancer - Clare Fleming who did a superb job completing everything in a timely manner and keeping me updated on progress and for consistently chasing the other parties. Would highly recommend Clare / JMW to anyone wishing to sell their property.

Jodie Reilly was very professional when acting on both our sale and purchase. She always responded promptly to any queries and there were many. She very reassuring and helpful throughout this stressful process. She explained things clearly and kept us informed of progress. She was brilliant throughout and I would highly recommend her. Also thank you to Jessica Chen's and Hannah Mole as well.
