Excellent service

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.

A breath of fresh air!

From the moment I approached this firm I knew they were going to do a good job. I have dealt with a few solicitors in recent years who I would never use again. From the start, communication with Burt Brill and Cardens was exceptional. Whenever I had a question it was answered promptly. Emily was always happy to deal with any uncertainties we had. From start to finish the service was always professional, friendly and efficient. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to everyone I know.

Daisy is an excellent solicitor

I approached Burt, Brill and Cardens with a complex matter having found them very good in the past with other matters. Daisy (Tester) has been absolutely brilliant from start to finish. She has a confident, calm professionalism about her that took all of the stress out of a stressful situation for me. Daisy really listens and finds solutions to problems quickly and efficiently. I was very impressed how she kept me in the loop along the way with clear and informative emails - professionally written, but without any unnecessary legalise.

Excellent all round experience.

I called Burt, Brill and Cardens as I needed advice regarding a family property. I was put through to Daisy Tester and from day one Daisy was extremely helpful. Daisy not only got the information I required but a lot more regarding the property making my case and who owned what clearer. Daisy's response times in replying and obtaining the information I required was second to none. Daisy was compassionate, very easy to talk to and Daisy's knowledge of the law and how Daisy could obtain the information I required is second to none. I cannot thank Daisy enough. Daisy is a credit to herself and the firm Daisy works for. I will be using Daisy in the future and cannot recommend Daisy and the firm enough. I would also like to add that all communication I had with Daisy was either by telephone or email so even if you don't live in area you can still obtain and reep the rewards of Daisy's very knowledgeable assistance and experience. Thank you so much.

Alex and Daisy supported me through an incredibly stressful couple of years. The details of the case were upsetting and difficult for me to talk about but they were sympathetic and understanding throughout, even going so far as shielding me from some of the nastier correspondence from the other side. They paid meticulous attention to detail and instructed an excellent barrister, always being mindful of costs. I'm glad I put my trust in them and am so grateful to them both. Thanks again.

Easy to communicate with and straight forward

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.

My Will and Peace of Mind

I recently had my Will done by Emily Shearing. I cannot say enough about her professionalism in every manner. She explained everything I needed to know clearly in person and in email communications. The process was smooth and the entire team made me feel extremely comfortable and valued even down to the cup of tea. Emily was recommended to me and now I wish to highly recommend her. She is brilliant! Thank you kindly for your outstanding service and it was my pleasure to deal with 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!

I was represented by Courtney Pearce and I would highly recommend her for Right to buy property purchases as she was excellent. The purchase was quite long and she was extremely patient with me and the Council when retrieving the information from us and remained very professional throughout. She was very thorough with all the fine details and was great at explaining what documents meant or breaking down the legal language. Communication was always consistent and available with Courtney and she was always great at keeping me up to date with the process. Thank you so much Courtney I wish you the best of luck with your career I am a very satisfied client.
