Prompt to reply via email, informative and happy to explain questions. Where I wanted more clarification about this was readily available by phone (or willing to phone back following a voicemail) and were always professional and informed.

A friendly and personable service. All aspects of the process and timescale were clearly as planed, jargon and backed up by a letter explaining easy to follow steps.
All requests were dealt with and the matter concluded in a timely manner.

I used Barcan & Kirby to support in divorce proceedings. During a difficult time they made things worse. I spent thousands of pounds dealing to get absolutely now where. Throughout the process was passed to 6 different solicitors, they need constant chasing after making promises they didn’t commit too.

We were very happy with the service provided overall and in particular the fact that they obliged in keeping our right to buy case open for another year as we were unable to proceed initially and had to wait 12 months. This was above our expectations.

I recently completed my first house purchase through Barcan+Kirby with the help of Holly + the team. I can not express how incredible they were at working quickly, proactively and always coming back to me within a couple of hours which really helped settle my nerves during a very stressful time! They always went above and beyond and were steps ahead at all points. I will definitely use Barcan and Kirby in the future and will recommend to everyone! Thank you so much for everything!

We received an excellent service to produce our wills from Terrie and the team at Barcan and Kirby. The approach was very thoughtful, efficient and helpful. All the staff we encountered created a relaxed and friendly environment which built our confidence and trust in the process. Something which could have been quite stressful was made a very accessible and positive experience.
