"Myfanwy Buckeridge and her team took on our personal injury case and worked tirelessly over 4 years to obtain the compensation that we deserved. Throughout the whole process we were kept up to date on all developments and fully briefed on how the case was proceeding and what was required of us."

"thoughtful, responsive, and commercially minded throughout. Rob also provided valuable support on a separate matter. What stood out most was the ability to have frank, open conversations around the practicalities of the deals, something that really helped get them over the line."

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!

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.

I've now used Barcan&Kirby on two property transactions and they were brilliant both times. Easy to contact, reliable and quick to deal with issues. The estate agent dealing with our purchase said it was refreshing to work with a solicitor who was so proactive. Transparent on pricing and charged less than estimated both times. Would thoroughly recommend.

Would thoroughly recommend Sally Stainton in the residential conveyancing team. Second time we've used B&K and I've been really impressed by their professionalism and speed. Estate agent for our sellers mentioned that it was refreshing to work with a solicitor that was so proactive. Really good value for the quality of service. Thanks also to Betty and Tegenn for their work supporting Sally.

Great service

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.

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.

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!
