Keeping his clients satisfied has earned a young solicitor a national award.

Lawrence Jegede, of OJN Solicitors, in London Road, Enfield Town, was given the top rated solicitor award following nominations from clients.

Consumer ratings website VouchedFor.co.uk presented Mr Jegede with the award.

Mr Jegede, who has been a solicitor for four years, said: “Being a 'top rated' solicitor means a great deal – there are thousands of solicitors in the UK so to be among the top rated is a real achievement. 

“What makes it even more special is that I’ve been selected as a result of support from my clients.  It means a lot that they’ve gone out of their way to help me to get this commendation and I’d like to thank them all.

“Almost everyone will seek the services of a solicitor at some point in their lives, but it can be difficult to know what to look for. In my opinion client testimonials are an important vehicle when it comes to establishing trust which makes receiving this commendation even more significant.”
