What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Clients who instruct this Bournemouth firm describe work spanning several practice areas, from family matters and divorce, including financial settlements, to probate and estate administration, commercial and insolvency disputes involving liquidators, employment questions, drafting of terms of service and privacy policies, and residential conveyancing. Much of the commentary centres on named solicitors. Henrietta Frew is thanked for professionalism and efficiency on a demanding claim, Paul Kanolik for a calm, strategic approach and deep familiarity with banking and insolvency work, and Matt Rushent for empathy and close attention to detail in a complex probate matter.

Asya receives praise for practical, cost-conscious guidance across a lengthy divorce settlement, while Ian Daly is described as reassuring at every stage of court proceedings and Sarah, Gemma and Ola as thorough on a sale. An observation shared by more than one reviewer is that clients are kept informed from the first consultation through to the outcome, with swift replies to emails and communication that remained smooth throughout. Persistence in securing a satisfactory conclusion to a long-running case is also highlighted, alongside a sense that clients feel supported and understood, particularly when instructions involve sensitive family circumstances.

I was terrified of the entire court process, but Ian Daly never once made an already difficult situation feel more overwhelming. From the very beginning, he put my mind at ease and worked incredibly hard on my behalf. I will always be grateful for everything Ian has done to help me. His approach is professional, reassuring and adaptable to each individual client. He has a genuine ability to make people feel supported and understood throughout what can be an incredibly stressful and emotional experience. He is not only highly professional, but also genuinely kind. My case was particularly complex, but Ian reassured me throughout that he understood every aspect of the situation. He communicated clearly and explained everything in a way I could understand, which gave me enormous confidence and reassurance at every stage. Honestly, I could not fault him. Ian is exceptionally good at what he does, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who needs someone knowledgeable, dedicated and supportive in their corner. The proof is in the pudding — when the truth is spoken, Ian gets results.

Jennie Hedges was great with the process of being able to buy my new house. The process was smooth and very quick. Ellis Jones are a great company to work with.

Reason for 4 out of 5. the first few years of our case, They had used several solicitor's very inconsistent, passing from one to another. Then a couple of years back they assigned Luke Foot and Lauren Day. Who both persisted to get us a satisfactory conclusion. Which we are very grateful.

I cannot recommend Asya at Ellis Jones highly enough. She supported me through the financial settlement aspect of my divorce over the past 18 months and was truly a tower of strength throughout what was a challenging time. Asya provided practical and timely advice, always with a clear focus on achieving the best possible outcome while also being mindful of cost efficiency. She had a calm and measured approach, particularly during the more stressful pinch points, which made a huge difference when things felt overwhelming. What really stood out was how flexible and understanding she was with communication, adapting to support me while I continued to work full time. She combined professionalism and expertise with genuine empathy and compassion. Beyond the legal advice, Asya offered reassurance and perspective, even helping me to find moments of laughter during a difficult process. I am incredibly grateful for the support she has given me and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing a skilled and compassionate family lawyer.

I would like to say a big thank you to both Malcolm Scott Walby and Kathleen Cross for making what could have been a difficult / stressful process so easy and smooth for me. I was kept fully informed from the first point of contact / consultation call - emails were responded to with speed and efficiency, right through to the end successful result. It gave me confidence throughout that I had engaged the right company and had an excellent experience with then. I highly recommend Ellis Jones Solicitors and would use them again, should the need arose. All best wishes to Malcolm and Kathleen going forward.

I instructed Ellis and Jones for my sale and worked with Sarah, Gemma, and Ola. They were all very professional and done a thorough and comprehensive job given our buyers solicitors were not the simplist to deal with. I would recommend Ellis and Jones. Thank you all!

I was provided the details of Ellis Jones Solicitors by a company specifically for employment law. Kathleen and Kate were amazing to deal to with and so accommodating to they're fact that i was travelling while trying to deal with tight deadlines. The ladies have been wonderful and the whole process made me feel so reassured that i was in good hands. Thank you so much.
