Divorce Process

I was assisted through the divorce process by Barbara Richardson at BSG Solicitors. Barbara’s advice at critical junctures was invaluable and timely and her calm and quiet self assurance inspired a confidence to move forward positively in what was a very difficult, stressful and potentially volatile situation. Barbara is a great advocate in resolving conflict through dialogue and she was always prepared to progress through the process at a speed relevant to the situation presented. I would highly recommend Barbara.

Family law/divorce and conveyancing

BSG have supported with my divorce finances and conveyancing with open, professional and timely support with any queries and updates during the two processes. Everyone at BSG was approachable and no request was to much hassle. When the individuals, I spoke to, said they would action something or provided information they did which kept me up to date and aware of the next steps of each process I used BSG for.

Fantastic service for a tricky house move

I am so grateful to Natalie for her professionalism, friendly manner and perserverance with our particularly tricky house purchase. Natalie represented us for both our house sale and purchase where she was always very quick to respond and pass along information, friendly and informative and always easy to get hold of when calling. We unfortunately had to break the chain earlier in the process (due to a lender issue) but Natalie worked tirelessly to ensure we were still able to complete both sale and purchase on the same day! We cannot thank her enough!

Exceptional service, very impressed

Exceptional expert advice and guidance from Emma as she helped me update my Will. Her professionalism, matched by her friendly and approachable manner, with a personal touch, put me at ease and I felt confident that my Will was in very safe hands. Nothing was too much trouble as she explained everything in detail, answered my many questions and gave me fantastic advice. All in all, a 5-star and reassuring experience and I shall not hesitate to use her services again in the future. My sincere thanks to Emma and the whole team at BSG, including Kathryn, and the lovely lady on reception.

We were delighted with the conveyancing service received by bsg recently, especially as the house sale required first registration owing to lost deeds. Sophie and her team were professional and approachable at all times, and the advice given was spot on. This was all done at long distance, but nothing was too much trouble for them. I would recommend bsg to others and intend to use them again for conveyancing when the time comes.

Many thanks for leaving a review which is much appreciated. We look forward working with you again in the future.

I have used Pippa before when I was a first time buyer and she was brilliant then. The time come after nearly 10 years to move and I knew I wanted to use Pippa again. She was great the first time, but honestly her and Jodi have been fantastic this time. Pippa I cannot thank you and your team enough, you’ve listened to me rant, cry down the phone to you and ask a million and 1 questions! If your looking for a brilliant solicitor who will take the time and go through the whole process with with. Pippa is your person! Thank you!
