Highly recommended.
I went to Martin and team at TG Baynes when I purchased Oak Road in 2019 and re-engaged for the sale of Oak Road and Purchase of Barley close. All in all the service provided then and now was impeccable and had everything covered from start to finish.

Challenging 10 year Joint Life Spousal Maintenance Order

I got divorced 10 years ago and was required to pay spousal maintenance on a joint lives basis together with child maintenance. Due to the capital settlement, my ex wife is living in a large 6 bedroom house and I am currently living in a 2 bedroom house. Given this disparity in the standard of living I needed to challenge the original order in court. I approached TG Baynes at the back end of 2022 to help resolve the issue. Throughout the process, I have been very impressed with this firm especially Karen Ioannou who really assisted and persevered in getting a fair consent order in place just before the FDR.

Sale of Business

I have been a client of T G Baynes since 1984, and I am still with T G Baynes.
Having direct contact with my solicitor, it makes everything easy to understand.
Mr Richard McFarland, has great legal knowledge with clear advice with first class service. I would highly recommend Mr McFarland to anyone.
