At John the Solicitor, we offer accessible, independent legal guidance tailored for individuals and small businesses across England and Wales. Our mission is simple: to make legal insight clear, affordable, and available without the intimidating costs or formality of traditional law firms. Our service is led by a qualified solicitor regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and currently registered as non-practising. With years of experience across civil, employment, consumer, family, and property matters, we help clients navigate complex legal issues with confidence and clarity. While we do not provide reserved legal activities (such as court representation or conveyancing), we empower clients with the right tools, documents, and advice to take informed legal action themselves. Whether you're dealing with a contract dispute, a landlord/tenant issue, employment concerns, or preparing a small claim or legal letter, our service is designed to give you reliable support when you need it most. Everything we do is rooted in ethics, professionalism, and transparency. Client satisfaction is at the heart of our approach. We take pride in delivering prompt, practical and plain-English solutions, often for a fixed fee. If you're looking for approachable legal guidance without the legalese, you’re in the right place.

Excellent service.
The issue we were dealing with had been ongoing for a year - had become complex, with many aspects to deal with. It was impressive that he was able to make a comprehensive and cogent assessment from a large amount of evidence - very swiftly.

Very knowledgeable solicitor. I needed a specific information that most lawyers would not know. John explained how laws applied to my case and next steps. It was clear. All paperwork was done really quick that was so important to me as I had a limited time to submit documents. I can highly recommend John the Solicitor!

I’ve had an excellent experience working with John. He has been consistently responsive and clear, making a stressful situation much easier to handle. His written communications, particularly the letters he drafted to the company and the ombudsman, were well-structured and highly effective when I used them. I felt genuinely supported throughout the process and appreciated his attention to detail. I highly recommend John to anyone seeking reliable and proactive legal support.
