I am not a type of person like to write review, but my experience with this solicitor is truly overwhelming that I decided to do it. I came to Alfred James a few years ago for sorting out my mortgage problem ( I needed to remove my Ex name from mortgage ). It was a really stressful time when I tried to find a good and honest solicitor. I went to ask a few solicitors and they gave me different advice which was not suitable for my case. The quotes from them were over £1500. I was so lost and not sure what to do. when I called Alfred James, I came to see Ade, I felt like finding hope in the dead end. He is kind, helpful but what is more, very professional, he knew my case was not as complicated as other solicitor said. And the problem was sorted with a cost of £250. I am so grateful for what they, especially Ade, have done for me.
