New solicitor for me

This was a new solicitor for me. I was very pleased to have such helpful and forthright advice and appreciated all the sensible help that was offered. I was particularly pleased with the help they offered about the letter of wishes. All in all I was very grateful for their kindness in all their discussions with me and I would not hesitate to recommend them to my family, friends and acquaintances.

Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs)

Katrina provided LPAs for myself and my wife. An excellent service. Katrina was professional, detailed and knowledgeable and listened to all our concerns.

Revising Will and care evaluation form

I found Katrina and Roswyn very approachable and supportive throughout the process of preparing my Will and invaluable advice on preparing evaluation for care forms. They both explained everything clearly and patiently so I was able to understand the process.

EXCELLENT

My experience with Barker Gotelee has been exceptional, very friendly, warm atmosphere, helpful and knowledgeable. My solicitor was very friendly and understanding. All my questions and queries were answered with appropriate explanations where needed. All the paperwork I received came with 'an interpretation' sheet, which I found very helpful. Communication over the phone was equally excellent, very prompt and friendly. No waiting for a call back for hours or being on hold for ages.
