Highly Recommend

I am glad that I asked Rob for help. He was recommended to me by a trusted source. I was involved in a long running and complex financial matter. Rob was self assured and guided me through a very difficult and anxious time.

Settlement Agreement

Rob Weston was recommended to me by an ex colleague and friend who had used Rob and Bassets services in a recent a settlement negotiation. Rob was very knowledgeable and and went through all the points in the document methodically and answered all my questions and any points raised . I felt he was on my side , batting for me and put me at ease during what can be a worrying time negotiating an exit ( albeit on good terms)

I had a change of name deed done and found Mr Weston and his legal secretary to be wonderful. They were friendly, thorough and and extremely professional. I would highly recommend Bassets Solicitors Gillingham.
