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.

Lasting Power of Attorney

Satisfied Client

I contacted Emily on the advice of a friend. I am glad I did. Emily produced my Will and Lasting Power of Attorney Documents. Throughout this difficult process Emily was supportive, friendly and compassionate. Her professional knowledge base was outstanding, she managed to convey the complexities of the Law in a language I could understand. Emily made was a difficult and upsetting time for me, easier. I can only thank her for her professional knowledge and her support and kindness towards me. I would definitely recommend Burt, Brill and Cardens Solicitors.

Great advice at a reasonable price

Having been quoted an exorbitant price to deal with the grant of probate on my late mother's estate by a large corporate solicitor I contacted Burt Brill and Cardens for a comparison quote. It was a very welcome surprise when Emily broke things down and showed me how I could use their fixed-price offering due to the simplicity of the estate. Whilst others might have a more complex requirement, in my case I saved several thousands of pounds by engaging her. Emily provided very clear guidance, explained every step, and made the whole experience worry free and quick. Highly recommended.

Fantastic personal service

Every solicitors firm needs a Victoria Fletcher. I have used Burt Brill and Cardens for around 12 years now. Selling and buying properties, wills and POA. The service has always been immaculate. This time I have to mention Victoria Fletcher, I felt genuinely cared for. Nothing was a problem, information was forthcoming and timely. Even when out of office and leave, days off etc Victoria engaged with me and made sure my concerns were dealt with if not by her by one of her amazing colleagues. Victoria is an asset to this firm

Vicki and Ruth were a huge help during the selling of my flat. They were extremely efficient and supportive and took a lot of anxiety out of a potentially stressful process.

We sold our flat back to the council and a few firms were just not interested in acting for us. Burt Brill and Cardens had no issues, with a two tier fee system to cover any exceptional issues from the local authority explained up front and honestly. Vicki Fletcher was our lawyer and she smoothed the whole process. Always communicated well either directly or through her assistant Ruth. No real issues and we paid the lower tier fee. A great team and will certainly use B B and C again. Many thanks.

We had a great experience working with our solicitor, Courtney during the sale of our house. She was proactive throughout the process, particularly when it came to chasing the buyer’s solicitor to keep things moving. Her persistence and efficiency helped bring the sale to a swift and painless conclusion. We really appreciated her responsiveness and professionalism, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others.

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!

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.

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.
