Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

Barbara joined us in March 2017 with over 20 years of experience in court work. She studied Law at Aberdeen then went on to train at Stronachs in the city, but has been working in Dunfermline and the surrounding area since 2003. Barbara is highly reliable, hard-working and friendly and specialises in court work – in particular, Family Law for private and legally aided clients. Her resolve, coupled with her caring nature, fit perfectly with this specialism to advise individuals and families on the best way forward in what can sometimes be upsetting, traumatic and difficult circumstances. She deals with various matters such as Pre-nuptial and Cohabitation Agreements, Financial Settlements for spouses and also Separation & Divorce. She also offers advice on Adoptions and Permanency Orders and Children’s Hearings along with Guardianships and Powers of Attorney. Barbara is a former Dean of the Dunfermline Faculty of Solicitors. Barbara keeps herself very busy when she has free time! Not only does she play the sax in a jazz band, but she also plays the flute in a concert band and orchestra. She loves cooking, gardening, reading and going to the theatre, spending as much time doing these things as time allows. Some of her favourite destinations have been the USA and Australia…and the continent where she’s tried to brush up on her very rusty Spanish and German!!

  • Licensed for 2 years

Excellent service

I used W&AS Bruce in Broxburn (Barbara and Janine) for a minute of agreement and transfer of equity/title deed. They are very knowledgeable and efficient, completely on the ball with everything and never had any issues from start to finish. Will use again for the purchase of my next property as I'm very happy with the service I received.

Was so grateful for all the help from Barbara collie in Broxburn for all her help with our SEN son’s guardianship and all that went with it. I was recommended by another parent to speak with Barbara in regards to this process. I was worried it would be a lot to deal with but everything was done smoothly and if ever I needed an answer to a question Barbara would quickly ring or email. Really pleased with all the help and the outcome. Would recommend using W & AS Bruce.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an outstanding experience with “W & AS BRUCE”. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Special thanks to BARBARA COLLIE and NICOLA DAWKINS for patiently assisting and supporting me throughout the entire smooth process of my DIVORCE and CONTACT ORDER. I am beyond well-contented and satisfied with the efficient and effective services they've provided me. To more clients to come! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
