Life changing result

Having spent 7 years with Richard dealing with my extremely complicated case, which many would have given up on, I can only offer the very highest praise.His hard work, attention to detail and never give up attitude resulted in a settlement way beyond my expectations and deserves every one of the 5 star rating. I will miss my contact with him. If you are looking for a winner, do not bypass Richard Harries. He is the most caring professional I have ever dealt with.

Clinical Negligence

Medical Negligence.

I decided to consult Barcan + Kirby with regard to a possible claim for medical negligence after reading many positive client reviews. On my initial visit when I presented my synopsis of events I was given very clear and helpful advice by Adrian, now retired, and by everyone else that became involved. My case was against two defendants, this did not help because one was a great deal slower than the other in responding throughout the entire process but with the very competent Fiona at the helm we came to a very successful conclusion. I should add that I had health problems during the legal process and I think Fiona deserves a medal for the patience and tactful manner in which she handled everything. I would not liked to have to dealt with myself during this time.

Samantha Castle handled my personal injury claim against an old employer after a workplace injury. She was outstanding - extremely knowledgeable and professional. I absolutely could not have achieved the resolution I achieved without her. Although my employed accepted liability immediately, it still took 3 years to reach a settlement - this is 1 year quicker than the national average. Without Samantha’s support throughout this time, I would have given up and simply not bothered. She kept me updated and was totally transparent about costs. She comes across as highly ethical and honest and is a straight talker so you know exactly where you stand. I am so grateful to Samantha and would not hesitate to recommend her. Worth absolutely every penny (and her fee was capped, so totally reasonable).

Personal Injury

A client

Due to a life change accident I had the opportunity to work with Emily Williamson & Kirsty Bancroft at the Barcan+Kirby law firm regarding a knee injury I sustained five years ago. From the initial consultation to the resolution of my case, the service provided was exceptional They demonstrated a profound understanding, of personal injury law. They took the time to listen to my concerns, thoroughly explain the legal process, and provide guidance on the best course of action. Their knowledge in navigating complex medical and legal aspects greatly reassured me during this challenging time. What stood out most was their commitment to clear and consistent communication. They kept me, updated on the progress of my case and were always available to answer any questions I had. This transparency, made me feel engaged, and informed, throughout the entire process. The lawyer service was impeccable. They worked closely with my hospital consultant team ensuring that the nuances, of my injury were well represented. Ultimately, Emily Williamson and her team achieved a favourable outcome for my case, which has significantly improved my sense of justice and closure regarding the incident. I am grateful for their hard work & dedication Hence, I highly recommend Emily Williamson and Kirsty Bancroft at the barcan+kirby to anyone seeking legal representation for personal injury cases and more. Their combination of professionalism, expertise, and empathetic service made a significant difference in my experience.

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.

Residential Conveyancing

We are very happy with the service Barcan and Kirby provided. We were selling a flat that we have owned for a number of years and knew it would take some time due to having to navigate the changes in ground rent. As part of the sale we needed negotiate a deed of variation with the land lord. Sally expertise and guidance in the area were critical in getting us to the finish line. I can not speak highly enough of the service she provided to us and the effort in navigating some challenging stakeholders. Including the buyers solicitor who had to practically be coached through the entire process. A massive thank you from Gemma and I for helping us get our flat sold.

Barcan+Kirby Solicitors came very highly recommended and did not disappoint. At a very challenging time, they were extremely supportive to myself and my husband as we navigated a complicated and traumatic construction dispute. We are particularly grateful to Alicia Bouarada for the care and attention she gave to our case. If you are unfortunate enough to find yourself in need of legal representation, I would wholeheartedly recommend this firm, and Alicia in particular.

Jenny and the team made my purchase a pleasurable experience - considerably different from my previous solicitors. I was kept constantly informed of any updates, and even if Jenny was away there was someone there willing to help me. Everyone I dealt with was unbelievably helpful, but just as importantly everyone was kind and good spirited. Thank you all for such a great experience - you’ve got a customer for life!
