Sam was understanding to my case and thoroughly knowledgable in his field. He explained things clearly in plain English, covering all relevant issues and answered all my questions. He was extremely helpful resolving my case in a very timely manner. He was friendly, without compromising professionalism. Should I need a solicitor again, I would not hesitate to contact Sam to see if he could advise me legally in the future and believe he is asset to the Barker Gotelee business.
I have described the firm based on my experience with Sam and as such it is nothing but positive.
