    I can’t praise Asim Din highly enough for his support and dedication in handling my commercial dispute case. The significant outcome was a direct consequence of his tenacity and tactical acumen. An outstanding professional giving clear and balanced advice. Fully explained the risks and options. Gave clear directions, invaluable recommendations and kept me informed every step of the way. All-in-all an excellent Lawyer and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing support with a commercial dispute.

    We have used Butcher and Barlow for several pieces of work recently, including shareholder agreements, work on Companies House and also commercial lease work. Specifically, Andy Mackenzie was superb in his advice around our new office space, and Jonathan Alderley was extremely helpful in ensuring that our shareholder provisions were set up appropriately and accurately. Both ensured that our work with them was low touch and very easy. 10/10

    I've used Karen Baker twice now, first time for selling, and the second for buying. Her knowledge and help is second to none. She picked four faults in the sellers solicitors contract, which would have caused so many problems further down the line. I would highly recommend her & Heyman &Co............Thank you Karen.

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Mark Turner and his team, and I must say, they have been absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. From the moment I reached out it has been nothing short of amazing. Mark's expertise and knowledge in his field are truly commendable. He provided me with frank and honest advice, which I greatly appreciated. He took the time to thoroughly understand my situation and provided me with clear guidance on the best course of action. He was always prompt in responding to my queries and kept me updated at every step of the way. I never felt left in the dark or confused about the progress of my case. I cannot recommend Mark Turner enough. If you are in need of a solicitor who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares about his clients, look no further. Mark's expertise, honesty, and exceptional service make him an outstanding professional in his field. Thank you, Mark, for your invaluable assistance.

    Heyman are a fantastic Solicitors. Very fast in the service they provide and so friendly. They go above and beyond and it never feels like its just about money. I have used other solicitors and never found them very accessible when needed. I would highly recommend Heyman and Co. I can't criticise them in any way.

      My family could not recommend Greg enough. He has been a brilliant solicitor to us throughout our legal dispute over our share of our late mother’s property and succeeded in making sure we received our portion of the sale. We couldn’t have gotten through the dispute without his help. Highly recommend.

      Excellent Service and Smooth Lease Extension Process

      Kelly provided an excellent service throughout my lease extension process. She kept me updated at every stage, explained everything clearly, and was always quick to respond to any questions I had. The whole process was handled professionally and efficiently, including dealing with my mortgage lender and the completion formalities. I really appreciated her attention to detail and support throughout what could have been a stressful process. I would happily recommend Kelly to anyone needing conveyancing or lease extension work carried out.

      Completion of Litigation

      I was very thankful that Thomas Sedley and Emily Scott took over a litigation which had been badly handled by another pair of solicitors in a different firm of Bury solicitors. I am now delighted to be able to say that I am a very satisfied client of B&B because Sedley & Scott outlined their plan at the outset and carried it through as quickly as the local Manchester court could process it.

      As a first time executor I felt rather lost and stressed about dealing with my late aunt’s estate. The task was rather tricky in that there was no original will, just a copy. Helen Chadderton at Butcher and Barlow did a great job. She handled the job with professionalism, explaining the options, and keeping me updated on progress. Thank you to B&B, and Helen in particular.

      My brother and I appointed Butcher & Barlow as our solicitors to advise and support during the administration of probate on our late father's estate. Our parents had previously used this company for approximately 25 years and had full trust in the firm. Butcher and Barlow, and in particular Samuel Dale and Jenny Brown, along with the rest of the team, proved to be knowledgeable, helpful and very supportive at such a difficult time. I have no hesitation in recommending Butcher and Barlow and will use them in the future, should the need arise. Their help was very much appreciated.
