12/08/21 - Reviewed by AVOID JAMES MURRAY
Incompetent and unempathetic so called qualified lawyers/solicitors. No sense of urgency or priority over cases considering its nature. Feels as though you are dealing with glorified administrative staff instead - constantly having to chase them up on my end. Understand that there are many cases to deal with but huge lack of communication and contact from the beginning. Does not restore my faith within the legal system. AVOID JAMES MURRAY SOLICITORS AT ALL COSTS.

Absolute disgrace, elliot smallshaw was apparently dealing with my case for months. He made no progress and when I complained to jayne Thomas he accused me of being the one at fault because I missed his call, I then pointed out that I had called back twice within 20mins of his call to be told he was busy and would get back to me. I also called the next day and was told the same, I also sent 3 emails over the next few weeks. No answer to anything. The case was then turned over to Lee Massingham, he called me and said dont worry I am personally going to work on your case, give me 24-48hrs and I will get back to you with a plan on how to move forward that was 37 days ago. I have called, left voice messages and emailed several times to both Lee Massingham and jayne Thomas and have not had a single reply. I tried to go to another solicitor but when I explained what had happened they refuse the case. They say because James Murray have been "dealing" with the case for months it does not pass their risk assessment. Absolutely disgusting level of service, thankyou for destroying my chance to have my case heard.

That is just a load of nonsense. Interesting that the person who has put the review doesn’t tell us who she/ he is. Several of my friends and family have instructed this firm. My sister used them to sue the Police and she won, so these comments are just wrong.

You have no right to comment on my case as you know nothing about it. So keep your stupid beak out of it. I suspect you are a plant from James Murray.

Appalling no service from Christoan Sereni who is very happy to take your money and then never actually does anything g for it. Wish I had never met this bunch of crooks and charlatans...they made my release very difficult and recall inevitable
Avoid like the plague. Worst solicitors. Never write, never call back, really nothing good to say about them.

I am not happy in which the way this Solicitor dealt with my case.
People should always be honest.
In my experience whilst in The Crown Court I lost everything despite being the victim.
Never again for me.

As we all know. The British injustice system is corrupt to the core. James Murray solicitors are complicit in this corruption. Especially James Murray solicitor mark Ellis. They’re not on our side folks. You won’t get anywhere using this scumbag solicitors folks. Do yourselves a big favour. Give them a swerve. They’re not worth a carrot.

This solicitors are so bad. In particular mark Ellis and Jim Murray. They must have bought their qualifications off the internet. You’ve got no chance of getting justice if you hire these clowns. Do yourselves a favour and give these chumps a swerve.

Mark Ellis is corrupt. Jim Murray is corrupt. I award these two jokers the “ sir Craig Mackey white feather medal of cowardice†for dereliction of duty.
Don’t use this solicitor people.
Use a bag of dog poop instead.
You’ll have a much better chance of being acquitted that way.
These people are pure scum. May they rot in hell for all of eternity.

I would give no stars if possible. This solicitors is rubbish. Do yourself a favour and go elsewhere. Mark Ellis was my solicitor and I would describe him as weak spineless and about as much use as a wet towel.he is the duty solicitor for Sefton magistrate court but he didn't let me know this before I used him. If he had I would have went elsewhere as I would have suspected the duty solicitor would be in bed with the courts and the police. Of which I am now certain that he is in my mind corrupt. Jim Murray the senior partner didn't even entertain my complaint as he told me he is good friends with Ellis.
I am complaining and reporting the company to the legal ombudsman. Although Murray tells me he knows them well. So there will probably be another matey cover up. I will report back on this but as we all know these scummy people tend to stick together so not very hopeful. Don't throw your money away using this worthless solicitors. Try to find someone else who is good. And good luck.

This Rubbish solicitors doesn't even deserve 1 star. Bad advice and terrible performance in court by Mark Ellis. He Refused to write me a letter to correct a false publication in a newspaper unless I pay them £100 after pocketing loads of legal aid and knowing I'm on benefits and living in poverty.
Made a complaint to senior partner Jim Murray who just fobbed me off. Which I presumed he would do. Making a complaint about the company to legal ombudsman now. I will update on this.
I would definitely not recommend this solicitor. You might as well just burn your money and plead guilty for all the good they will do you. NEVER AGAIN. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

I have spent several thousands of pounds with this firm on behalf of my daughter in a family matter. Trying to get hold of Callum, the solicitor dealing with her case has been almost impossible and this week despite several messages left for him he has yet again not called her back. She has already had a major cock up in this case when the barrister appointed by James Murray Solicitors did not turn up resulting in a further delay in getting access to her children of several months. We have had no offer of compensation nor reduction in fees charged despite this serious issue. Now that her ex partner is breaching the court order after only 2 access visits and she needs further advise in enforcing it we cannot get any response from them.
I will be taking legal advice elsewhere about how I can take action against James Murray, and her ex
