Our conveyancing team is experienced in handling all aspects of property transactions, from initial instructions to completion.

Immigration
We offer professional services at reasonable fees and flexible payment terms to all our clients. If you cannot afford to pay our fees in full at the time of your instructions, we are happy to accept half of the agreed fees at the time of initial instructions with the balance to be paid via monthly instalments.
Criminal Law
Cuts in public funding mean that many people are now required to contribute to the cost of their defence. We will advise you clearly and carefully right from the start about the costs involved in representing you. Our highly experienced team of solicitors has successfully defended clients facing criminal charges in the Magistrates Court, the Crown Court, and the Court of Appeal.

Wills and Power of Attorney
Dealing with the death of a loved one can be the most difficult period in any person's life. When it comes to handling the formalities around that, our support can lessen the load. Our specialist department deals with the preparation of simple Wills, the preparation and registration of Enduring Powers of Attorney, and the preparation of Lasting Powers of Attorney.
Probate and Administration of Estates
For most people, this is unfamiliar territory. To make matters more challenging, the terminology and strict legal processes involved can be difficult to get to grips with. At Jacobs and Co Solicitors, we strip away the complexity, offering you clear guidance on what you should do and how you should do it. Our friendly and efficient department deals with the administration and distribution of estates both large and small.
Poor Communication and Unreliability
Many reviewers have expressed their dissatisfaction with the communication and responsiveness of the law firm. Some users have reported that they did not respond to emails or phone calls, and when they did, they seemed to be unaware of the situation. One reviewer even stated that they were promised a call back, but never heard from the firm again.
Professional Conduct and Competence
Several reviewers have questioned the competence and professionalism of the firm, with one reviewer stating that they were amazed that the solicitors were even qualified. Another reviewer described a solicitor as a "cowboy" and a "complete bellend" and suggested that the firm should fire him immediately.
Subpar Document Quality
One reviewer, who described themselves as a "language pedant", was shocked by the poor construction and numerous spelling and grammatical errors in a letter sent by the firm.
Positive Experiences
On the other hand, two reviewers have reported positive experiences with the firm, praising the reliability, quick service, and high-quality advice provided by the solicitors. One reviewer specifically mentioned that the price was more acceptable than they expected.
