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

Highly recommended

I am very happy to recommend Christian Sereni at Barker Son & Isherwood. Christian made the process of applying for Grant of Probate - which initially seemed challenging - a very smooth one. Christian's experience shone through in our first meeting and he continued to offer clear advice at all stages. He was also very quick to reply to messages which allowed us to move at a good pace. Thanks Christian!

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.

I recently used BS&I for the conveyance of my late mother's house and was very pleased with the efficient communication and service from the start. Emails were responded to promptly and efficiently, and I felt appropriate care was taken of our case. I would be pleased to recommend BS&I and will be returning soon to make our wills and LPAs.

Jenny was very attentive and I had full confidence in her. She was excellent and so was Angie. Baljinder worked so hard to complete a long and difficult house sale. Her contact and communication was constant. I cannot fault the service.

Use Chat GPT for a better service

I engaged BSandI over and employment settlement. The service was poor, needed to chase the team, unclear methods of charging and seemed little expertise. I would advise to look elsewhere or just use AI and save your money. Very disappointing.

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.

A representative from Barker Son & Isherwood LLP responded to this review

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.

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

Jenny was lovely and super helpful along with the reception staff. They were absolutely amazing until the very end, I’m still waiting for a response for attendance notes. Also I still had a few questions, but got dropped as soon as it was over for them. I would highly recommend them for family matters though, it was handled very well, just at the end I got let me down.
