The company dealt with the conveyancing in a very professional and friendly manner and every time I had a question to ask, they came back to me without delay which was very reassuring . There was a small problem and they settled it with ease..

I recently sold my house with RIAA Barker Gillette and was thoroughly impressed. They provided exceptional support and truly had my best interests at heart throughout the entire process. Their proactive approach ensured all parties stayed on track, and they consistently drove the sale forward to a successful completion.
Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased to hear that Peter was able to assist you and that you had such a positive experience with us.
Martin was brilliant - so professional and personable. He clearly has a lot of expertise, and we always felt were in safe hands. He's always available to speak on the phone, and is incredibly patient and reassuring. He worked efficiently and quickly to get our sale done in a few months, including over the Christmas/New Year period. Would highly recommend using Martin, and have already referred him to my friends.

Martin was everything I would expect a top solicitor to be. He was knowledgeable, responsive, supportive, calm, and overall an excellent professional to work with. I would use Martin and RIAA Barker Gillette again without hesitation. Sharon is also an amazing member of the team that complimented Martin and made the conveyancing experience even easier.

Thank you for your kind review. We're delighted to hear that Martin and Sharon exceeded your expectations and made your conveyancing experience a smooth one. At RIAA Barker Gillette (UK), we strive to provide a knowledgeable and responsive service, and it’s great to know our team made a positive impact.

We had an excellent experience working with Michael Davies and his team on the sale of our property. They were efficient, knowledgeable, and highly diligent throughout the entire process. Communication was always prompt and clear, which made what can often be a stressful experience feel very well managed. What stood out most was their commitment even after completion — they continued to follow up on outstanding matters and ensured everything was fully finalised, even a year later. That level of care and professionalism is rare and very much appreciated. I would highly recommend their services.

Hi Nika, Thanks for the wonderful review. We appreciate the lovely feedback! We are pleased to hear you had a positive experience, and we appreciate your recommendation.
Martin and Laura have been absolutely fantastic, cannot recommend them enough. We encountered challenges with the other party's solicitor and it just highlights the importance of instructing people who actually care and know what they're doing. They are professional, friendly, so responsive and committed to achieving the desired outcome for their clients. Thank you so much!

I've got nothing but good things to say about my experience. All the staff were friendly, professional and available to help as some parts of the process required multiple back-and-forth emails/phone calls within the same day. I will be using them again for any further legal services!

Overall a very positive experience with this firm, they were friendly and communicative, responding to emails/calls promptly and sometimes multiple times within the same day! The team were thorough and made sure I clearly understood the information and outcomes of the process before proceeding so I was comfortable that I had a good handle one what was going on at all times. I would definitely recommend them to others and will be using them again for any further legal needs I have.

Very good service from the beginning until the end. We previously dealt with Neil when we purchased the property, and he has been as efficient as the first time when we decided to sell 3 years later.

Absolutely brilliant, fast, professional, clear and delivered a robust service. Recent mortgage oversight from Ben Marks and Anne was superbly dealt with and I intend on moving all my business to them. For a big firm they really do pay attention to detail. Great service and worked around the clock to deliver! HIGHLY recommended, tried and tested and didn't let me down!
Hi Amish, Thanks for the wonderful review. We appreciate the lovely feedback!
Review: RIAA Barker Gillette (UK) LLP I rarely leave reviews, but feel it is important to share our experience in a measured and factual way. Our residents’ company instructed Barker Gillette in relation to a complex, multi-leaseholder redevelopment matter. Over a period of more than two years, the file passed through four different solicitors, which resulted in repeated loss of continuity, shifting approaches, and prolonged delays. Communication was inconsistent, at times withheld. At critical stages there were long periods with little or no proactive engagement, and requests for coordinated meetings with other professional advisers were declined. In a transaction involving twelve individual leaseholders, this lack of joined-up communication had a material impact on confidence and engagement. On several occasions we sought line managers assistance, promises made, none kept. A key communication issued to all leaseholders in November 2025 focused heavily on risks while omitting important contextual benefits and contained many factual inaccuracies. Although a revised note was issued later, the damage to confidence had already been done. Attempts to address this constructively were unsuccessful. We raised a formal complaint with the firm. Unfortunately, none of our concerns were upheld, despite the evident breakdown in trust and service. As a result, we have taken the matter to the Legal Ombudsman and are considering further regulatory steps. This review is not written lightly. Complex matters require consistency, careful communication, and strong supervision. In our experience, these elements were lacking, and we were ultimately unable to continue working with the firm.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience in such detail. We appreciate your feedback and note your comments.
Found Pippa through a personal recommendation and she is wonderful. Offered so much wonderful advice, answered every question and is just the calm, pragmatic person I need as I'm navigating potential legalities
