Failed to inform me on the risks involved with following their advice

I would not recommend Barcan+Kirby. They did not inform me of the risks involved with following their litigation advice because, in their words, they did not want the implications of being locked into an appeal process to cause alarm. Having then spent thousands with firm, I had to withdraw from the court process with no outcome. I then transferred to another firm of solicitors and after receiving much better advice and customer care, I concluded my application for a leasehold extension, at a fraction of the cost I had spent with Barcan+Kirby.

A representative from Barcan+Kirby LLP responded to this review

Thank you taking the time to leave your feedback, Richard. We apologise that our service didn’t meet your expectations on this occasion. Looking into your matter, it seems that there were complexities in the case that were out of our control, and that our team has dealt with your feedback accordingly. We are very sorry that we can’t assist you any further.

The Solicitor we used had good experience and understanding of the aera of law we were focusing on - trust. she advised us well, but the length of time we had to wait was too long, and i had to chase on numerous occasions.

I chose Barcan-Kirby based on the reviews online having previously experienced poor service from others when moving house. Thankfully they were a breath of fresh air, both Farah Akram and Janice Jones, always on top of all queries, the only challenge was that the buyer’s solicitors were not as proactive and professional. Thankfully you both Farah and Janice. I would certainly recommend both Farah and Janice, as well as Barcan+Kirby Richard Barrett

Charlotte is a brilliant and empathetic solicitor

Charlotte supported me and my family through a heartbreaking period with equal parts professionalism and empathy and a deep knowledge of the subject matter when we needed it most. Thank you so much Charlotte for your hard work and dedication, we really appreciate it. You are an asset to Barcan + Kirby. Best wishes, Rita and family.

Abi and her team acted for us on a recent sale and purchase and they acted swiftly, very professionally and although I had lower quotes, they were well worth their fee. They were approachable and always available via phone and email. They made an always stressful process far easier

Not good

Had conveyancing practice deal with the purchase of a new home for me 4 years ago, & I’m still being told by lenders that part of the property doesn’t belong to me!!

A representative from Barcan+Kirby LLP responded to this review

Hi Elaine, as discussed with Kim, all relevant documents outlining your ownership of the property have been shared with you. During your recent phone conversation with her, you confirmed you are uncertain about which of part the property is not owned. Unfortunately, this means there isn’t any further assistance we’re able to provide at this stage.

Thanks so much, from Lynn & Gary

Thanks so much from Lynn & Gary Our Review referring to: Barcan+Kirby Kingswood & Bedminster Branch staff. We have very recently completed the sale of our late mother’s bungalow via CJ Hole - Kingswood Branch, Barcan+Kirby were amongst a list of recommended Solicitors to consider using received from CJ Hole. The whole process from our first meeting with representatives from both the Kingswood and Bedminster branch right through to final completion, we found the process to be completely stress free. The team coordinated all requirements efficiently and effectively. They were excellent at keeping us up to date on all aspects of progress. We would like to add a special thanks to Caleb Kay, Laura Roberts & Robyn Eamer who we found all extremely helpful. We can’t thank the team enough for their expertise and knowledge, time, care and support. We highly recommended them. Thank you all.

We had struggled to find anyone happy and confident to deal with a discretionary will trust. B+K produced a deed of appointment faster than we'd thought possible and met a very tight deadline. Many thanks to B+K and Anna Molter in particular. Would definitely recommend them highly.
