Burt Brill & Cardens Limited

Rosie guided me in making decisions regarding my will. The interview was well worthwhile as it enabled Rosie to understand my specific situation and follow through with added value suggestions. Rosie was always prompt in reply with clarity and specifics.

Never again! My original solicitor left without warning or explanation (rarely a good sign), replaced by a less-qualified conveyancer. It all went badly downhill: I endured weeks of silence and no progress; a key document had a serious error, risking a tax liability and a fine if hadn’t noticed it; the completion timescale was ridiculously naïve and unrealistic. I lodged two formal complaints, both of which were upheld by the firm. At least that process worked – but they’ve probably had lots of practice. True, I received a significant fee reduction as a result (although no more than I deserved for the needless personal stress, inconvenience and cost). I wasn’t trying to save money – I just wanted a professional service. Many other solicitors offer that, in Brighton and beyond. Go to the Law Society (England & Wales) website and Trustpilot UK (and see this firm's reviews).

Rosie was absolutely brilliant helping me get my Will sorted. She listened to exactly what I wanted, made all the updates quickly, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. Highly recommend her and the firm!

I used Stephanie to deal with my late partner's probate. It ended up being a lengthy process due to hmrc. Stephanie was amazing at dealing with them and keeping us informed. She wasn't scared to challenge hmrc when needed. I would highly recommend her. Many thanks.

I have worked with Emily on a couple of different matters. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, respectful, patient, responds in a timely fashion and both matters were successfully concluded. It was a pleasure to work with her and I would highly recommend her work to anyone.

Daisy Tester worked with efficiency, clarity, skill and compassion on my mother's will which had complications. She provided me and my brother with clear information about a possible contestation, gave us plenty of time to deal with the matter in the way that suited us and did not pressurise us into any expensive decisions. I also appreciated her regular check ins to ensure we met deadlines and were in a position to respond. She made a huge difference to us at a very difficult time both personally and legally and saved us a lot of money.

I am incredibly happy with the service I received from Rosie Smith. She has done a fantastic job helping me finalize everything, handling all the details and updates so efficiently. She made the entire process clear, straightforward, and completely stress-free. I really appreciate all her hard work and would highly recommend both Rosie smith and the firm to anyone looking for excellent legal support.

Fantastic service from Victoria and Ruth for my recent sale and purchase. I wouldn't move house without them. Thank you!

What a horrible experience. “You will pay a bit more but you will get the service”, they said, well we did and we didn’t. Supposedly competent in dealing with ‘Lifetime Mortgages’ we went to this Firm for that reason. We should have realised how bad things were going to be, when the first batch of forms and paperwork were sent out to someone else in error. We then endured months of poor communication by inexperienced staff, and to be honest at times what felt like incompetence. The considerable stress of moving home was only compounded by this Firm. Never again!

We have used Burt, Brill and Carden for our last 3 house transactions and they have always been personal, timely and professional in their services. Compared with other solicitors in our chains they have always looked superior.
