CJCH Legal Ltd Solicitors in Cardiff, Barry, Bridgend, Blackwood, Caerphilly & Swansea:
CJCH Solicitors is a South Wales-based legal practice with a history spanning more than 35 years. The current firm was created following the 2013 merger of Colin Jones Solicitors and Clarke & Hartland Solicitors, bringing together two established practices under a single name. Since then, it has expanded to operate from multiple offices while providing legal services for both private individuals and businesses. Although its offices are concentrated in South Wales, the firm represents clients across the UK and internationally.
"With five offices across South Wales and representation across the globe, the firm offers a range of services in both corporate and private matters."
The practice covers a broad range of legal disciplines rather than focusing on a single area of law. Business clients can access services including commercial law, employment law, dispute resolution, mediation, commercial property and corporate matters. For private clients, the firm provides advice on conveyancing, family law, wills and probate, court of protection matters, criminal law, mental health law, childcare proceedings and other civil legal issues. Legal Aid services are also available in appropriate areas of practice. Be aware though that the UK government has stripped Legal Aid to the bare bones and that is out of any solicitor's control.
Alongside its legal services, CJCH Solicitors maintains an active 'Insights' section on its website containing articles, practical guides and commentary written by members of the firm's legal team. Rather than serving purely as company news, the section includes explanatory resources covering legal developments and common questions faced by clients. Recent examples include guides discussing commercial lease reforms, legal aid eligibility, parental alienation in UK family law, conveyancing mistakes to avoid when purchasing a property, and employment law changes. The archive also contains case studies, podcast appearances and updates on significant legislative developments affecting both individuals and businesses, making it a useful resource for readers seeking general legal information.
"a trusted and proficient law firm with a focus on client value"
Many law firms will make such statements about their experience and expertise on their website. You can always check the qualification date of any solicitor registered with The Law Society of England & Wales. For example, if you look up this firm you'll see a range of experience levels such as Garth James who qualified as a solicitor in 1977, Matthew Johnson in 1998, right up to Laurie Andrews who qualified in 2025. While well-established firms are always more appealing, it will often be down to the individual solicitor you are assigned.
The firm highlights a number of recognised professional accreditations it has achieved. These include the Law Society's Lexcel practice management accreditation for standards in client care, compliance and practice management. Individual teams also hold specialist Law Society accreditations in Family Law and Mental Capacity. They are also part of the Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS) and others. While certainly not the be-all and end-all of decision factors, firms with accreditations obviously have advantages over those without.
"CJCH Solicitors is a modern legal practice which delivers customised solutions and dedicated service."
Today, CJCH Solicitors describes itself as combining local accessibility with wider national and international capability. Its development from two regional firms into a larger multidisciplinary practice reflects a strategy of organic growth alongside expansion into additional legal disciplines. With a sizeable team of solicitors and legal professionals, the firm offers services across both commercial and private client work while continuing to publish educational material intended to help clients understand legal procedures and developments before seeking formal legal advice.
A quick note on navigation. The firm's official website is www.cjchsolicitors.co.uk with some variants such as www.cjch.co.uk redirecting you there. The main site is HTTPS secure for submitting your personal details via their contact form. But you need to be extra careful these days to ensure you're on the correct site and using the official email and phone contacts of the firm, especially if you are seeking help with conveyancing matters. Some home buyers have handed their entire house deposit to fraudsters based on one email telling them to switch bank details. All it required was a phone call to check and they wouldn't have lost thousands of pounds.
