JS Law

JS Law: residential conveyancing in England and Wales

JS Law is a law firm specialising exclusively in conveyancing, that is, the legal management of home purchases, sales and remortgages. It is part of Simplify, a UK property and conveyancing services group, and has a team of more than 80 professionals. The company states it has over 30 years of experience and serves thousands of families each year in England and Wales.

Its activity focuses on buying and selling homes and remortgaging. It does not offer other legal services. The firm presents itself as one of the largest residential conveyancing firms in the country and operates with a workforce distributed between its Market Harborough office and home working.

Conveyancing services and approach

The company covers the legal side of moving, with the aim of making the purchase or sale process as smooth as possible. Among the services it details are buying, selling and remortgaging homes. It also offers solutions for estate agents, lenders and financial services professionals, with case tracking and update platforms.

The pricing model includes a fixed fee policy and the 'No Sale, No Legal Fee' guarantee: if the transaction does not complete, no legal fees are charged, except for the file opening fee, which is paid once the sale or purchase has been agreed (subject to contract). Upfront payments are non-refundable, but are credited against costs incurred. If the firm has paid out additional costs on the client's behalf, the client must reimburse them.

The company works with estate agents and introducers in England and Wales. These assist with marketing, case tracking, collecting initial payments and, in purchases, ordering searches and sales progression. JS Law pays variable referral fees, averaging between £300 and £450, at no additional cost to the client.

eWay: online case management

eWay is the secure, real-time online case management platform that the firm makes available to its clients. It allows legal documents to be read, reviewed and managed from a computer, tablet or mobile phone, and enables tracking of the move's progress 24/7. The company highlights that this speeds up the process and avoids trips to sign or send documents.

Client profile and collaboration with introducers

JS Law serves both individuals buying or selling their home and clients of its business partners. The firm emphasises that it assigns each client a dedicated conveyancer who supports them from start to finish. For introducers, it offers a collaboration programme with case tracking and updates.
