About the firm
A law firm built around our clients.
Alexander James Solicitors is an independent Manchester practice acting for businesses and individuals across England and Wales. Our team of trusted advisers is committed to ensuring you get the best possible result — quickly, discreetly and on terms you understand.
Welcome to Alexander James Solicitors, a specialist practice that was established in 2017 by our Founding Partners, Claire Lines and Nadeem Malik, who are passionate about the practice areas we offer. Sebina Noreen joined the practice in 2020 and has been a valuable asset to the firm.
We are a specialist law firm and act for a broad range of clients. Our pragmatic approach is to listen to your priorities and expectations and put in place the best strategy in order to reach a quick resolution, whilst developing trust and confidence.
Everything we do centres on solving problems, rather than highlighting all the difficulties. We pride ourselves on our efficient procedures and clear solutions, but we continually strive for improvement in order to deliver results more effectively.
Our lawyers are happy to assist you with legal enquiries you may have in both private and commercial matters. We always put our focus on our clients and offer comprehensive legal services to help you make informed decisions.
Client-first
We start every matter by understanding the circumstances and outcome that matter most to you.
Transparent pricing
Fair, clear fees with no hidden charges. Where appropriate, third-party funding options are available.
Pragmatic strategy
We focus on the route most likely to deliver a quick, sensible resolution — not litigation for its own sake.
Direct access
You speak with the qualified solicitor handling your matter, not a layer of intermediaries.
How we work with you
Every instruction starts with an honest conversation. We will listen carefully to what has happened, set out the realistic options and explain — in plain English — the likely cost, timeframe and outcome of each route. You will always know who is handling your matter, how to reach them and how charges are calculated.
We invest heavily in clear written advice. Reports, opinions and updates are drafted to be read by you, not by other lawyers, so that decisions about your case sit with you rather than being deferred to us. Where specialist input is required — leading or junior barristers, forensic accountants, medical experts — we coordinate it on your behalf.
Our approach is firmly client-first. That means we are happy to scope a piece of work narrowly, hand the file back when it is the right thing to do and recommend a different firm if your matter falls outside our practice areas. The relationships we build with our clients matter more than any individual instruction.
