A joiner made a mess of this door frame, the door is a bit diagonal. Is there anything I can to save these without putting new door frames in?

Are you sure the door lining is in diagonal and it’s not the walls?

What do you mean by diagonal: twisted or out of square

Wish I had a pic with the door on. Basically part of the door sits higher up on the left and then is a bigger gap on the right side.
 
if thats a door lining say 32mm close up then that hinge pocket would be 8mm and the door stop perhaps 12mm by measuring from the picture so not at all sure what i am looking at as a hinge pocket should be around 2mm perhaps 3mm for the leaf thickness
if thats not a hinge pocket need to know its size and other timber actual size to work out the answer??

It'd take 2 minutes to put it back on with a couple of screws

Is the door frame not square? When you stand looking at the door you can see that the gaps around the door start small in one corner and get bigger towards another corner?

If you don't want to re hang the door, sketch what it looked like and upload that. We need to know whether the frame needs squaring or the door needs rotating
