Steve Gray

Tagged solicitor Steve Gray

I have recently been privileged to be introduced to Mr Stephen Gray (Partner) at Fiona Bruce Solicitors. He is a true gentleman.The experience that I received was outstanding. Mr Gray is very professional, knowledgeable, understanding, helpfull and offered valuable informative advice. I found him easy to discuss my business with and he communicated with language that was understandable. He gave me copies of my completed business making sure that I was happy with the end result. The price that I was originally quoted by a very helpfull Mr Bruce was what my final invoice came to with no add ons. I was delighted with the price that I was charged. Many thanks to Mr Gray, a Solicitor who I have total confidence in his ability. I have used this Company previously over the years and Mr Gareth Langham has been the Solicitor who has worked on my behalf. Again I was pleased with the service that I received. Fiona Bruce Solicitors in my opinion are an excellent Company who care about their clients whilst having the ability to undertake their work correctly and in a timely manner. I would personally recomend this Company and wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future. Many Thanks.

Celia Willcock

Tagged solicitor Celia Willcock

I have only high praise and recommendation for Celia and her team at Kingsfords. Throughout the process of selling our home, Celia and her team were always incredibly efficient - I would set reminders to follow-up for updates, only to receive the updates days before my scheduled reminder. The timely communication meant what could have been a stressful process was actually very straight-forward. They excel at attention to detail and forward planning. I am extremely grateful to Celia and her team for this.

Jan has been superb. Put onto me by another lawyer Mr Stanley, at the firm as a recommendation, it’s proven to be another solid gold performance. She has been excellent. Calm efficient and super reliable. This firm only employs quality from my experience.

Daniel Couchman

Tagged solicitor Daniel Couchman

Hiring Daniel is possibly the wisest decision you’ll make this year. In a time of great personal anguish Daniel employed his very considerable knowledge and expertise to successfully shield and defend myself and my family from an unjustified legal offensive following a commercial dispute. We’re among those clients he successfully helped “get out of a deep hole”. In engaging Daniel you have the assurance of a lawyer who acts for you with the same commitment and determination as he would if acting for his own mother.
