In a move that has taken many by surprise, the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) has officially closed down the practice of Jarmans Solicitors (JS) Limited, located at 13 Conqueror Court, Vellum Drive, Sittingbourne, ME10 5BH, on the 15th of March, 2024. The law firm Lester Aldridge is assisting the SRA with the process of the closure.
As a direct result of this intervention, Jarmans Solicitors (JS) Limited is no longer in a position to represent or act on behalf of its clients. This development necessitates the need for its former clients to seek new legal representation promptly. For those affected and in search of alternative legal services, a comprehensive list of solicitors operating within England and Wales is readily available on the website of the Law Society.
The closure of Jarmans Solicitors has led to the removal of all client files from the firm's premises. These files are now under the custody of the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Clients who wish to recover their files or need access to them for ongoing legal matters should refer to the SRA's Interventions page for detailed guidance on the retrieval process.
In line with standard regulatory procedures following such closures, the bank accounts of Jarmans Solicitors (JS) Limited have been frozen. All funds previously held in these accounts on behalf of clients have been transferred to the control of the Solicitors Regulation Authority, where they are being securely held awaiting further instructions from the rightful owners. Clients concerned about funds that Jarmans Solicitors may have been holding for them are advised to consult the SRA Interventions page for information on how to claim these funds.
The closure of a law firm raises numerous questions and concerns for its clients, employees, and the wider legal community.
