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.

kind and understanding solicitors

I just want to say a big thank you to Joelle Allen from this firm, as she was so understanding and kind to me. I was initially booked to see her in the morning and I missed it (entirely my fault) but she had no problem seeing me later in the day, without hesitation. She certified my documents with no fuss and understood my needs. Highly recommend!

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.

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!!

this review

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.

We had a very positive experience from Suzanne and Virginia. We appreciated their friendly, professional approach and they made us feel completely at ease. We never felt rushed or under pressure which was much appreciated as my husband has memory difficulties due to his medication. Everything was explained clearly and in a way that was easy to understand. Overall a really comfortable and reassuring experience.

We had a really positive experience with Barcan + Kirby for our will writing. All staff are friendly, professional and welcoming, which immediately put us at ease. The whole process felt relaxed and straightforward, without any of the stuffiness or formality you might normally associate with something like writing a will. Everything was explained clearly and in a way that was easy to understand, without plenty of opportunity to ask questions. The staff were knowledgeable and professional, but also approachable and down to earth. Overall, a really comfortable and reassuring experience. We would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a professional Will writing service that makes the whole process feel simple and stress-free. Additionally we feel confident that when the time comes for the wills to be enacted upon that our family will be guided and supported throughout the process, to reduce the stress and time consuming aspects of applying for probate.

Thanks so much, Anne. This feedback for our Private Client team is wonderful to read; we're so glad we could support you with writing your Will and providing a stress-free service.
