Stress taken way by a great team's excellent service

I have never had to use solicitors before and for my first time it was with my first house purchase. The steps before leading up to the stage of working with a solicitor was stressful. However once I used the services of Barker Son & Isherwood LLP, the level stress went away. Samantha, Dawn, Jade and account team took the time to explain everything in detail to me, possibly more than once in the same clear, understanding and calm manner. Working with them was so easy and I worried about nothing at all. All steps were efficient and faster than I expected. There was always someone I could ask a question to and responses were also timely. I would use this team again and highly recommend them to others. I think Sam and her team are lovely and excellent solicitors! Thanks again :-)

Excellent conveyancing service from BS&I

I was extremely impressed with the service that we received from Samantha & Dawn when selling a property previously owned by my parents. Following their deaths, the property was owned by their respective Will Trusts, which added a small level of complexity to the process. BS&I were proactive in chasing the buyers solicitor, and also stepping up when the buyer's solicitor seemed unable to correctly complete the transfer form

Samantha was wonderful and polite and very helpful. She was able to help me with some paperwork where other solicitors didn't do this service because it isn't worth there time but Samantha was a huge help. I would highly recommend her.

At no point during the conveyancing process were we made aware of the compliance requirements relating to septic tanks. As a result, we have now been required to replace the septic tank at significant personal expense amounting to £9,789.32. In short, no I do not recommend BSandI. We will be seeking further legal advice regarding potential negligence on the part of this conveyancing solicitor.

We are sorry to learn of your disappointment with the service you recently received from BS&I. Client care is of paramount importance to us and something we take very seriously. Due to client confidentiality, we are unable to address your specific case in more detail via social media.

I have recently used Samantha Travella at Barker Son and Isherwood to sell my property, having used her services twice previously for other conveyancing work. The process has been completely stress-free as a result of Samantha's professionalism, speed and thoroughness. Samantha has been on hand to keep my sale on target despite multiple issues with my purchaser causing possible time delays, and thanks to her, exchange happened exactly when I needed it to. I am really impressed with how diligently she has monitored my sale, and with her communication throughout. I will continue to use Samantha for all future purchases and sales and wouldn't think about going elsewhere.

Having dealt with many solicitors over the years I have to say dealing with Annalee at Barker Son & Isherwood has been a breath of fresh air. Her approach to the job is incredible, she is very thorough and is committed to getting the transaction to exchange and completion as quickly and efficiently as possible. Highly Highly recommend
