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.

I'd already posted a 5 Star review for Kim Pratt and Abigail Bratchel regarding their excellent handling of a bungalow sale for an elderly relative via POA. However, a last minute health item created a few last-minute issues for our chain. These were handled very promptly and efficiently by Kim and Abigail on our behalf. Excellent service - Thank You.

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!

Residential Conveyancing

I cannot recommend this conveyancing team highly enough. I've used them for many years and have always received an exceptional service. They are consistently professional, efficient, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to deal with. Buying or selling a property can be stressful, but they make the whole process feel smooth and well managed, always keeping you informed and responding promptly to any questions. A special thank you to Laura, Robyn, and the rest of the team, who are absolutely fantastic. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and friendly approach have given me complete confidence every time I've worked with them. I recommend them to all of my family and friends because I know they'll receive the same outstanding service that I have. If you're looking for a conveyancing solicitor you can genuinely trust, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this team.

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.

Choosing the right solicitors for the purchase of our first home felt like such an important decision, and we truly couldn’t have made a better choice than Barcan and Kirby. We worked with Abigail and Toby who, from start to finish, were an absolute pleasure to work with. Whenever we had questions, they took the time to answer them thoroughly and with such genuine patience and kindness. There was never any such thing as a silly question, and they always made us feel completely supported and reassured throughout the entire process. Their professionalism, diligence and efficiency far exceeded our expectations. They consistently went above and beyond, keeping everything moving at an impressive pace while ensuring we always understood what was happening. It was clear from the very beginning that they genuinely cared about providing the very best service. A special thank you to Toby, who was an absolute joy to work with. He was incredibly accommodating, responsive and diligent with every query we had - always taking the time to help and making us feel like nothing was ever too much trouble. Buying your first home can feel incredibly daunting, but thanks to Abigail and Toby’s hard work, professionalism and genuine care, the whole process was surprisingly stress-free. We always felt informed, supported and valued, and it made such a difference to our experience. We are so grateful for everything Abigail and Toby did to help us purchase our first home and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional solicitors. Thank you both for making such an important milestone such a positive and memorable experience!
