Wills update

Noticed that the office had moved and was concerned. Made 1 phone call and was immediately put at ease on where our paperwork was being kept. Made arrangements for meeting and although traffic held up the appointment time for more than an hour, on finally arriving we were made to feel welcome and offered a drink and given time to settle.
We were listened to and given sound advice on what the next steps were for us personally.

Experience of Daniel Karsten.

Daniel has been extremely helpful and thorough in setting up my LPA and have no complaints about his service. I was ill during this period so he came over to Emsworth to sort out the matter which I appreciated. I have been using BMLLP from 1973 when I bought my first house when they were Blake Lapthorne in North End Portsmouth and have bought five houses in total and the service has always been excellent, my only complaint is you have moved to Eastleigh it was much better when you were near Portsmouth. I have also used BMLLP in setting up and chasing my will. Daniel has a good attitude and also is a petrol head like me. Excellent chap.

Let the Solicitor Take The Strain

We have been very pleased with the work and support carried out on our behalf by Blake Morgan LLP. Daniel Karsten kept us informed throughout and was easy to talk to. He was professional, efficient and polite at all times and explained matters very well. His e-mail communications were excellent. Many thanks indeed, a difficult task at a challenging time for us, was made much easier with the support from Blake Morgan.

Review of divorce proceedings

Simon and his team were utterly professional and diligent throughout. Navigating challenging timescales between UK and Australia. Sound advice based on great knowledge of the legal system as well as always navigating towards a path that was a win-win to get to a compromise agreement.

Highly recommend.

Divorce proceedings

I first contacted Blake Morgan when I wanted to start divorce proceedings against my husband. From the very beginning I felt very supported and reassured by Simon Burge which was so important during an extremely stressful and emotional time. He gave clear and honest advice and made it clear that if my husband and I were to be reconciled I was able to stop proceedings anytime I wanted right up until the decree absolute was granted, which is what happened. I would have no hesitation in recommending Simon Burge and Blake Morgan to anyone else.

Simon and his team guided me through the whole process, explaining each stage and enabling me to make my own informed choices. Simon’s experience, judgment and patience were invaluable, and his advice well considered. I never felt rushed into decisions and Simon was instrumental in helping me achieve an outcome I was comfortable with.

Excellent Family Law Team

There can be few stress-free divorces but this case involved a pension in payment, a long-standing family home pre-dating the marriage, removal of a child from the family home and the need to protect a separate home for a vulnerable offspring from a previous marriage. Simon Burge provided consistently wise advice, constructive challenge when needed and a rapid response to issues as they were raised. Simon was ably supported by his junior colleague, Jessica Howard who matched his high standards of personal attention, wisdom and kindness. It is all too easy to envisage a far less satisfactory outcome without such an excellent team.
