The interview was conducted in a very friendly manner and the options open to us were explained clearly. Our enquiry was concerning the legal position relating to my mothers death and how we should deal with acquiring probate consent. We were guided us through the various options available, and all our questions were answered to our satisfaction.

They were NOT able to help me with claim, but I feel I need to review that Jack G was very compassionate, professional and showed me a lot of respect-both in talk and email conversation due to my conditions. I can't help but praise him.

Would highly recommend Barcan and Kirby for purchasing and selling a property. I have used them several times before and recently. Farah and Catherine were both helpful, supportive and efficient they kept my sale going through smoothly and are local for collecting and dropping off forms or signing documents. Will use them again in the future. I have also used Barcan and Kirby for my will and divorce and will use them again in the future.
