Preparation of Powers of Attorney

5

I have been a client of Barrett and Co for many years and have always been completely satisfied with the professionalism and dedication to guiding my late wife and me through various stages of sometimes complicated procedures in several legal areas. Courtesy and patience by all staff of the company is always a feature of every situation, and it is always a sense of relief to be able to take for granted a level of customer service, professional knowledge and courtesy which many commercial organizations regrettably do not always provide.

It is a great pleasure to unreservedly recommend Barrett and Co in all respects, the company has always provided the sort of support that every customer has the right to expect.

An excellent service

5

An excellent service from Barrett & Co in helping me and my family with my late Dads estate. It was a very daunting time for all the family so to have such friendly people who showed compassion and were so helpful every stage of the way having patience and understanding and professionalism was superb.
Juliette Spanner looked after us to start and her friendliness made me feel as if I'd known her for years then Charlotte Fox took over from Juliette and equally was very friendly and helpful.
Piers Galton -Becque did all the conveyancing and again I cannot stress the friendliness, help and professionalism shown by them all.
I would highly recommend Barrett & Co and would not hesitate in dealing with them again if needed in the future.
Thank you to everyone who was involved with my late Dads estate from myself and all the family.

Review for Barrett and Co

5

I would like to express what an excellent service from Barrett and Co in helping myself and my family with my late Dads estate.
It was a very long process but everyone that dealt with the different stages were so friendly, and so helpful and had so much patience and very professional throughout.
My dealings was with Juliette Spanner at the beginning till halfway through and it seemed as if I had known her for years, then Charlotte Fox took over from Juliette in carrying on the process of sorting my late Dads estate and was equally very friendly and very helpful.
Piers Galton-Becque did all the conveyancing work and again I cannot stress the friendliness, help, and professionalism and compassion from them all.
I would highly recommend Barrett and Co to anyone and would not hesitate in dealing with them again if needed in the future.
Thank you to everyone who was involved with Dads estate from myself and all my family.

The advice and attention my husband and I received from Ms Charlotte Mckenty
regarding our Mirror Wills was excellent. The staff we encountered were helpful and
courteous.

We have no hesitation in recommending Barrett & Co and would certainly use them
again should the need arise.

Several years ago we used Barrett & Co to write our wills. Following the sad passing of my wife last year they proved most helpful in sorting out her affairs.
Charlotte Fox in particular, was most kind and helpful to my family in assisting & guiding us with what needed to be done. Thank you.

We used Barrett and Co in Reading to draw up a Declaration of trust as we were extending a relatives property so we could live in, this gives us protection our investment.
We were both pleased and impressed by the service Charlotte Fox provided for us she was knowledgeable, efficient and very pleasant. Would recommend this company and will definitely use them again.

I've dealt with many solicitors in the past 10 years in various areas of law and I must say Barrett come 1st place for me. Great care and attention.

**Meant to have mentioned Charlotte Fox was the lady that took care of my affairs.

Thank you so much for this review. It is very kind that you took the time to write as it really helps other people find a good solicitor. Getting personal legal affairs in order, whether updated wills or organising other legal solutions is so important and often overlooked. Please do mention me to any friends or family that need a good solicitor in Reading. Kind regards, Charlotte McKenty, (nee Fox).
