Blanchard Bailey

3

I needed several legal things that needed tackling, so having used Blanchard Bailey in the past I looked first at the Shaftesbury Office. It was a surprise and disappointment to me to find that I had to deal with the Blandford office, but I did decide to go ahead. My only comment on the services received is disappointment that I couldn’t complete my business more locally. However, I did find everyone that I did deal with, especially my lawyer Emma Needham, very professional, professional and pleasant and I am grateful that I was not pressured as I did need time to consider things.

Needing to remake my will after previous bad advice, I asked for recommendation from a friend. Blanchard & Bailey have proved up to the mark, new will sorted and old paperwork tidied. I would definitely recommend Emma Needham and her associates.
