I can’t praise Asim Din highly enough for his support and dedication in handling my commercial dispute case. The significant outcome was a direct consequence of his tenacity and tactical acumen. An outstanding professional giving clear and balanced advice. Fully explained the risks and options. Gave clear directions, invaluable recommendations and kept me informed every step of the way. All-in-all an excellent Lawyer and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing support with a commercial dispute.

Thank you for your review and your recommendation of Asim. We shall be sure to pass this on. We are always pleased to hear that our clients are more than satisfied with the level of service provided. Kind regards, Butcher & Barlow.
We have used Butcher and Barlow for several pieces of work recently, including shareholder agreements, work on Companies House and also commercial lease work. Specifically, Andy Mackenzie was superb in his advice around our new office space, and Jonathan Alderley was extremely helpful in ensuring that our shareholder provisions were set up appropriately and accurately. Both ensured that our work with them was low touch and very easy. 10/10

I've used Karen Baker twice now, first time for selling, and the second for buying. Her knowledge and help is second to none. She picked four faults in the sellers solicitors contract, which would have caused so many problems further down the line. I would highly recommend her & Heyman &Co............Thank you Karen.

Dear Stuart. Many thanks for taking the time to leave such a positive review of Karen and the work she did with you. If we can help you further with anything else, please do get in touch. Kind regards, Butcher & Barlow.
The team at Butcher and Barlow are a perfect example of synergy. The communication and professionalism of its employees are outstanding. Right down from the legal team through to the reception team who are as equally impressive. They are friendly and warm but remain professional and straight to the point – translating the intricate details of a complex legal system into a language I can easily understand. Their legal knowledge, speed at which they work, meticulous attention to detail, communication between the departments and ability to think outside of the box are truly impressive, so I feel confident that all aspects of my business are totally safe in their hands. So far, I have employed the services of their phenomenally tough and brilliant litigation department, the extremely detailed and fast commercial property department, and also their wills, contracts and HR departments who leave no stone unturned, protecting my future and mitigating any unforeseen events. Somehow, they have the ability to be succinct, yet provide a vast amount of pertinent information without waffling. They have always provided regular email updates which sum up the situation, reiterate what has been said, and then clearly state 'the next steps or options to choose from.' Brilliant. Amazingly, there has never been a spelling mistake or error in all the vast communication we’ve had over the past few years. If ever they propose any work, they always confirm the cost and ensure that I am happy to proceed first. I will never, ever go to any other solicitors’ firm - I have used many other solicitors throughout my life and none even come close to the ability, legal knowledge and meticulous attention to detail that Butcher and Barlow offer. Their professionalism is second to none. When I first established my business, I will never forget my Bank Manager advising that I ‘invest’ in good accountants or solicitors since they are “worth their weight in gold and ultimately save you money in the long run.” He was dead right.
Dear Debbie. Thank you for your review. We are very pleased that your ongoing experience of our Firm is so satisfactory; our whole team will be happy to read your comments.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Mark Turner and his team, and I must say, they have been absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. From the moment I reached out it has been nothing short of amazing. Mark's expertise and knowledge in his field are truly commendable. He provided me with frank and honest advice, which I greatly appreciated. He took the time to thoroughly understand my situation and provided me with clear guidance on the best course of action. He was always prompt in responding to my queries and kept me updated at every step of the way. I never felt left in the dark or confused about the progress of my case. I cannot recommend Mark Turner enough. If you are in need of a solicitor who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares about his clients, look no further. Mark's expertise, honesty, and exceptional service make him an outstanding professional in his field. Thank you, Mark, for your invaluable assistance.

We engaged Butch and Barlow to purchase some Agri-Land. Tom was assigned and remained a single point of contact through the whole process. He was easy to contact and communicate with and was very clear about what I needed to do at each stage. I would have no hesitation in working with him / the company in the future.

Dear Dave Thank you for leaving a review. We are pleased that you found the advice clear and helpful, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Kind regards, Butcher & Barlow
My family could not recommend Greg enough. He has been a brilliant solicitor to us throughout our legal dispute over our share of our late mother’s property and succeeded in making sure we received our portion of the sale. We couldn’t have gotten through the dispute without his help. Highly recommend.

As a first time executor I felt rather lost and stressed about dealing with my late aunt’s estate. The task was rather tricky in that there was no original will, just a copy. Helen Chadderton at Butcher and Barlow did a great job. She handled the job with professionalism, explaining the options, and keeping me updated on progress. Thank you to B&B, and Helen in particular.

My brother and I appointed Butcher & Barlow as our solicitors to advise and support during the administration of probate on our late father's estate. Our parents had previously used this company for approximately 25 years and had full trust in the firm. Butcher and Barlow, and in particular Samuel Dale and Jenny Brown, along with the rest of the team, proved to be knowledgeable, helpful and very supportive at such a difficult time. I have no hesitation in recommending Butcher and Barlow and will use them in the future, should the need arise. Their help was very much appreciated.
