We came to BSG through family connections. We did, therefore, expect a high standard of service! But we received 1st class service throughout which far exceeded our expectations. We feel that it is worth paying that little extra for such professionalism.

Having done an internet Will, I was anxious that it was not sufficient. Looked at local solicitors with good feedback and a recommendation from a friend led me to BSG. Rebecca talked us through the basics and listened to our needs in producing a Will sufficient to protect the family. The process was quick and at a reasonable cost. I can certainly recommend BSG and I will be using them again to undertake additional property legals.

I consulted Emma at BSG to see if we needed new wills and whether to put an investment into trust for our daughters. Emma was so approachable and immediately put me at my ease. She was wonderful and her advice invaluable which allowed me to make my decisions.
Emma is extremely pleasant, professional and knowledgeable and I can’t praise her enough.
She made the whole process easy for me and I’ll highly recommend Emma to family and friends for her excellent service.
Thank you Emma

Hired BSG to help with mortgage, declaration of trust and wills.
The service is prompt and professional, with good communication.
The work was carried out diligently, with no stones left unturned.
They were always happy to have a phone call whenever we needed something explaining in more detail.
Thank you for your help!

Very pleased with their service in helping us write our wills. We had a few things that needed amending after the work had been completed and they did this at no extra cost. They were friendly, helpful and worked with us to establish our needs clearly. Would recommend and use them in future if needed.
