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.
