All of us at Jackson Lees are excited to introduce our new head of residential property, John E Jones.

John, who is also a director of the Society of Licensed Conveyancers, joins our team with four decades of experience in conveyancing. He will be based in our Liverpool office, overseeing our 20-strong department working across Liverpool, Heswall and Hoylake.

A chartered legal executive and licensed conveyancer, John is also an active member of the Adjudication Panel for the Council for Licensed Conveyancers (CLC). His work with the CLC has helped improve regulations and the education of conveyancers, as well as playing a critical role in the development of the Council’s handbook and education portfolio.

John is also a Licensed Probate Practitioner and will support both our Wills & Probate team and Court of Protection team with probate sales and Deputy/LPA sales & purchases.

John and his family live on the Wirral, and outside of work John undertakes various voluntary activities. He has previously been the chair of Shaftesbury Youth Club in Birkenhead, a trustee of Wirral Mencap and vice chair and treasurer of the Police Roll of Honour Trust.

Speaking about joining our team, John said: “I’ve long admired Jackson Lees’ fantastic reputation for its culture and since joining, I’ve been overwhelmed by the positive and enthusiastic attitude from every staff member.

“Throughout my career, I have had the pleasure of working with some of the very best conveyancers who all instilled a genuine interest in conveyancing in me and a desire to do it well. I’m now looking forward to taking over an energetic team committed to delivering the highest possible standards of service to our clients.

“I am also impressed by the Jackson Lees Training Academy where I will be bringing in my own experience to help develop the technical training framework, helping individuals with progression and developing a career path.

Managing director, Esther Leach, said: “John is a genuinely inspiring lawyer and role model who we are thrilled to have on board at Jackson Lees. Our conveyancing team has gone from strength-to-strength in recent years, and we are confident John will lead the team in the right direction to offer a flawless service to our clients.

“His extracurricular work and passion for the sector fits right into our culture of nurturing talent to create the best teams and his extensive experience will not only greatly help our conveyancers, but the wider Jackson Lees Group as he feeds into our Training Academy. We are very excited to see the impact John makes with us.”

"We are thrilled to be welcoming John to our team, his extensive knowledge and experience will be incredibly beneficial to our team and clients alike.

At Jackson Lees we will act in your best interests, helping you every step of the way to ensure your home move is completed on time."
