Peter Wright is Exceptional

5

Peter is thorough and communicative and works to timeframes, ensuring he uses his client's time effectively. Peter can translate complex legalese into simple, actionable and straightforward instruction when speaking with those not as familiar with matters as a lawyer.

He keeps you updated on its progress, ensures there are no surprises and lets you know what to expect, and when so you can help with the matter in a timely manner

He and Ben Marks are the Dream Team.

I have been in the property industry for over 20 years and have dealt with many firms, however, my experience with RIAA Barker Gillette was nothing short of outstanding.
Ben was involved with the sale of our property. He was very professional, quick-thinking, and able to solve issues as and when they occurred. I highly recommend the firm - specifically Ben Marks to deal with your conveyancing.
