Jane Webb & her team helped us with our house purchase. Jane and both Karens were very knowledgeable and extremely helpful by email and phone, always promptly addressing any queries.
We felt very confident using their services and I'm really pleased we did.

Thank you!

I’d like to thank Jaime-Lee for her support and help over the past 14 months.
The process was an extremely anxious and stressful time and had lasted somewhat longer than I had hoped.
I do not think I could have reached the end goal without Jaime-Lee’s knowledge, transparency and support over this time.
It was worth every penny!
Thank you again.

Jaime-Lee John, a specialist in Family Law, helped guide me through a most awful time in my life. Her support, patience, understanding and guidance helped keep me going when I was overwhelmed by the complicated process and legal jargon.

Family court case

I had Jaime-Lee as my solicitor throughout my court case and she was absolutely amazing! She was very helpful and supportive! She is easy to contact and always replies within good time! I don’t know what I would’ve done without her! Very happy with my experience with her and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

A great timely and helpful experience.

I came through to BTMK after leaving another solicitor due to poor service. Thank you to Jane Webb, Karen Mitchell and the team who took my conveyancing file through to completion in a short span of time. Very happy with the service.

Excellent Conveyancing service from BTMK

BTMK are fantastic! Karen and her team are incredibly professional, efficient, knowledgeable and helpful. Their communication is second to none & I was kept up to date every step of the way with the sale of a property. I have used BTMK now three times in the last 12 years for conveyancing services and for probate. They have impressed me every time. Thank you so much to Karen and her team. I have and will always continue to recommend BTMK to friends.

About this branch

Description

Many years ago, there were four leading law firms based in South Essex. Travell Horner, Bates & Partners, Twitchen & Musters, and finally Robinson & Kelly. The first two, Travell Horner and Bates & Partners merged and became Bates Travell, and then the other two superb law firms Twitchen & Musters and Robinson Kelly also came together to become Twitchen, Musters, Robinson & Kelly – which was a bit of a mouthful so they became TMK Solicitors in due course. These two exceptional legal practices continued until they decided to join forces and became the BTMK that we know and love today.

Practice areas

All areas of personal law such as family & matrimonial, litigation & dispute resolution, professional negligence, childcare, employment law, insolvency, personal injury & clinical negligence, wills, probate, trusts & inheritance, injunctions, contentious probate and will disputes. All areas of commercial and business related law such as commercial property (buying, selling, entering into, disposing), business sales and acquisitions, commercial litigation and dispute resolution, intellectual property, insolvency and winding-up procedures, injunctions and employer related employment work.
