    Fantastic Solicitor – Highly Recommend Fiona!

    We are so grateful to Fiona and her team for all their hard work over the past two years. She represented us in a complex case at the High Court and managed to win a result exceeding our expectations. From the start, Fiona was brilliant. She explained everything clearly, kept us updated and was always honest and straightforward about what to expect. Her attention to detail and ability to stay ahead was incredible. What stood out was Fiona’s determination. She worked tirelessly, making sure every angle of the case was covered. When it came to courtroom prep, her skills in managing her team were second to none – calm, confident, and sharp. You wouldn’t want to face Fiona as your opponent; she’s that good! We can’t thank her enough for the amazing result she achieved for us. If you need a highly skilled solicitor who genuinely cares about her clients, Fiona is the one to call, gosh help anyone who comes up against her!

    Kevin and Danielle worked hard to get our purchase through before the stamp duty deadline and navigated some tricky issues with the sellers’ solicitor. Danielle always responded to emails on the same working day and Kevin was almost always available by phone. We’ve used Marcus Baum before and would definitely use them again.

    The services provided by Marcus Baum Solicitors were excellent. Specifically, Chris Maddison & Emily Gowers were both impeccable and of a very high professional standard throughout. They were both an invaluable source of knowledge and information, always willing and available to take our calls & emails and provide advice on the best options to take in resolving our issues.Their communication was excellent and efficient, I was kept up to date with the progress in "real-time". I would have no hesitation in recommending this company and specifically Chris & Emily to any of my family or friends. Great work!

    Marcus Baum have been the worst solicitors firm I have ever had the displeasure in dealing with. Their communication is simply appalling. They have dragged their heels at every stage of the process causing the sale of our property to take nearly 4 months. My advice is do not use this firm if you want a quick or stress free sale.

    Thank you for your comments and we apologise for the fact that you have felt the need to complain, although on the details you have provided we cannot find reference to either you or your transaction.

    Marcus Baum are excellent. The whole stressful process of selling and buying in the middle of a long chain was removed by the friendly, professional staff. I cannot fault them in any way. I would recommend them time and time again. Their fee structure was simple and precise too. Top marks for the whole team of professionals there.

      I recently was appointed Yolanda by the mortgage company I was working with. We were under immense pressure to have everything done by a certain date. Yolanda managed this within 6 working days from start to finish, with 2 hours to spare on the deadline.She and her team are fast, responsive and I would defintely use them again.

      Excellent service on our first home purchase

      We can't recommend BTMK highly enough. As first-time buyers — and after a previous purchase fell through — we were nervous about the whole process, but Phillip and Nitu made it genuinely straightforward from start to finish. They were consistently responsive, kept us informed at every stage, and handled the enquiries thoroughly rather than rushing things through. When questions came up around boundaries and access, they took the time to explain everything clearly and gave us honest, practical advice so we could make informed decisions. Nothing was ever too much trouble, no matter how many questions we asked. Thanks to them, we exchanged and completed smoothly and on the timeline we'd hoped for. A huge thank you to Phillip and Nitu — we're now happily settled in our new home. If you're looking for a conveyancing team who are professional, patient and genuinely on your side, look no further.

      Thank you so much for the incredible review, George! Buying your first home is already a massive milestone, but navigating it after a previous purchase has fallen through can be incredibly stressful. We are absolutely thrilled to hear that Philip and Nitu were able to put your minds at ease and make the process genuinely straightforward. Congratulations on exchanging and completing right on your ideal timeline, and we hope you both have many very happy years in your new home!

      ​I had an outstanding experience working with Gill Neil at BTMK Southend and would highly recommend her services. Conveyancing can often be a stressful and overwhelming process, but Gill made the entire transaction seamless and straightforward from start to finish. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and proactive communication were exemplary. I was kept informed at every key stage, and any potential hurdles were handled swiftly and efficiently. ​It is rare to find legal support that combines such high-level expertise with a genuinely approachable and reassuring manner.

      Really appreciate their quick and simple response. Had been back and forth with a previous firm for over 3 months, I contacted BTMK and got a phone call the same day and my questions answered. Unfortunately we can’t pursue the case I wanted, but should I ever need to for anything else then I’ll definitely come back. Great customer service, quick, courteous, and helpful! Thanks again.

Luckily I realised early enough and changed to BTMK solicitors and Joe Burns was dealing with my case. Joe is very professional and hard workig solicitor!
