About this score
This rating is based on verified client feedback and compares how this firm’s value for money is perceived against the national average. In legal services, value for money is not about being the cheapest option, but about whether clients feel the service, expertise, and outcome justified the cost. This comparison helps place client experiences in context when choosing a law firm.

About this score
This rating is based on client feedback and compares how satisfied people were with the result of their legal matter against the national average for similar legal services. While every case is different and outcomes can depend on the law, the facts, and decisions made by courts or tribunals, this comparison is designed to be like for like.
When a firm has a large number of reviews, individual case differences tend to balance out over time. This makes the national average a useful benchmark for understanding how often clients feel the result achieved was fair and appropriate for their situation. Even small differences from the average can therefore reflect a meaningful difference in the overall standard of legal service provided.

Victoria Stone
Our case hasn't completed yet, but I feel I need to let some positivity out right now considering how awful our chain is. I obviously won't go into details about why our chain has been so, so bad other than useless solicitors... but the only positive thing in this process was our choice of solicitor: Victoria Stone. Victoria is the only reason I have been remained semi sane. She has been put through her paces in this process and gone above and beyond. I never have to chase her or get stressed about her. Her professionalism and personable character has been a life saver in this process. She has been totally competent, dealing with issues that are ACTUALLY issues (unlike other solicitors in this chain), she responds in a timely manner and even more importantly is that she will listen to my rant every so often because this process has just been soul destroying. All I can say is that if we had had 5 lots of Victoria's in our chain, we would have moved into that house at the beginning of Summer, not 6 months later still wondering if we'll ever move. So Barkin and Kirby, you have a keeper there as I will, without a doubt recommend her to anyone and everyone. Whilst the journey we have been on together has been nothing short of terrible - she's been a total pleasure to work with. Thanks, A&A

I have recently sold my property using Barcan + Kirby. Victoria Stone was responsible for overseeing my sale and I must say that Victoria did an excellent job of this for us. Our sale was not an easy process and I was probably not the easiest client to deal with (Apologies, Victoria!) but Victoria provided us with constant updates and worked tirelessly on a tight deadline to exchange and complete for us. Victoria knew the process inside out, we also felt that we were in good, knowledge hands with her and would have no doubt recommending her to others either. Victoria, thank you so much for all of your assistance, we are incredibly grateful.

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.
