Deborah Bailey

Tagged solicitor Deborah Bailey

Deborah was a pleasure to deal with honest and upfront in regards to my divorce and the pitfalls I had to face, her professionalism shone through from the moment I met her (previous experience had). I highly recommend Gowen and Stevens especially Deborah Bailey whom I can only praise. I give a special mention to the other voice behind the phone Caroline whom was always helpful, pleasant with nothing being a problem I would say you spoke with a smile. Thankyou both for your help.

Heather Harkes

Tagged solicitor Heather Harkes

Having had disappointing experiences with other solicitors in the past, I reached out to Heather at Burys regarding a complex and sensitive family matter. From the very beginning, Heather and the entire team at Burys were exceptionally helpful, understanding, and consistently provided sensible and practical advice throughout the entire process. They handled everything in a timely manner, from frequent updates via phone and email to managing the extensive paperwork and forms. Thanks to Heather and the team at Burys, the outcome of my case was precisely what I had hoped for. My barrister was well prepared thanks to the well organised paperwork and communication and the numerous court hearings were just that much easier thanks to this. I could not have navigated the legal process without their expert guidance and support. When you seek legal assistance, you are also paying for the reassurance that you will have people around you who can correctly assess the situation, guide you and be honest about your options. In this case, I got exactly that. I will not hesitate to contact Burys again in the future if I ever need legal assistance.
