The Jonathan Lea Network Sponsors The More Radio Live Event

September 15

Last month, we sponsored the More Radio Live event in Worthing. It was highly entertaining and featured five tribute acts, The Spice Girls, Lewis Capaldi, Ed Sheeran, Kylie Minogue and George Michael. They performed the biggest songs of the last three decades and the crowd had a great time singing and dancing along, even when it started to rain towards the end of the night. Normality was restored as thousands of people gathered together to enjoy the occasion.

Simon Brooks Qualifies As A Solicitor

August 9

We are proud of our team for their hard work and dedication, while we have always seen it as important to offer career progression opportunities. This month we are delighted to announce that Simon Brooks has become our first trainee solicitor to qualify as a solicitor.

Simon joined us in August 2018 as the first paralegal we employed. At the time we operated from a tiny office in the roof above a small accountancy practice, trading under the insurance and regulatory umbrella of another law firm which Jonathan had joined as a consultant back in 2013. Despite being in our infancy Jonathan was able to interview several recent law school leavers for the role and eventually selected Simon due to his high academic grades, extra-curricular achievements and sense of ambition.

Happy customers

Recently used JLN services at The Clean Space. Thanks for turning things around in the extremely short timeframes. Our CEO Charlie Mowat was very impressed. We are happy customers. Callum Ritchie was excellent, extremely efficient, clear with information and always available to advise.

After searching for someone with expertise and a solid reputation, we engaged with JL for a Declaration of Trust. We were assigned Andreea Rusu (trainee) but felt we were in safe hands from the outset. The process was relatively smooth - the only wrinkles were teething issues during signing as we had to move to no-contact, fully digital method as it was Covid lockdown. Never-the-less, Andreea was always available to help out and during drafting and signing process, she certainly went the "extra mile or two". Dealing with Andreea was an absolute delight. She was super responsive, professional, helpful and friendly. I would have no hesitation in endorsing Andreea to others. Thank you Andreea you made a potentially complex process, simple, easy and stress-free !

I'm based in Aberdeen, Scotland. I found the Jonathan Lea Network online. I had been using a solicitors firm in Aberdeen for a year and not got anywhere. I took a chance and contacted JLN network in which I found the enquiry to be dealt with promptly, efficiently and professionally. I was able to do what I had requested another firm to do within weeks instead of over a year with no end in sight. I'm extremely grateful to Jonathan and his team (Elliott, Abi and Alice) for their help. I would have no hesitation in recommending The JLN to others.It was a shareholders agreement and share allocation that I needed assistance with, it was dealt with very smoothly and efficient.I wish the JLN every success for the future and will use them again.

Exceptional experience. After being badly let down by another company, it was refreshing to deal with such professionals. I felt confident in the service throughout and the reassuring regular contact left me feeling I was in safe hands. The Jonathan Lea Network helped me secure my EIS status and they did it a lot faster than I had expected. I would certainly recommend and would be happy to speak with potential customers of The Jonathan Lea Network if anyone needs an Independent review of them. Absolutely over the moon with the service and success of the application. Top notch!
