Victoria Bullard Paralegal at Banbury office

5

Victoria has been dealing with my complex property issue which involved negotiations with mortgage lender over title split, certification on deeds of trust, release of security & redemption of mortgage . She also dealt with land registry, local planning authority, selling agent & buyers, all in the shadow of threatened legal action from my mortgage lender, which caused intolerable stress & anxiety to us.
She was very understanding, compassionate & empathetic of my situation. She took ownership of all the issues, working with great care, methodically & diligently throughout. Furthermore, she has guided me on to the next stage of my ongoing dealings, all above & beyond her brief. Her attitude & disposition have been a great comfort & support during this awful period. I cannot praise her enough, she is an absolute gem and a huge asset of this firm, working with Phillip Cooksey. I will be forever grateful for having her in my corner. I wish her the very best for a bright & fruitful future. Furthermore she has guided me on to the next stage of my ongoing dealings, all above & beyond her brief.

Excellent Service

5

My family and I have been using the services of Bower Bailey Banbury for well over 40 years and are never disappointed with the excellent level of professional service we have received. Most recently Phil Cooksey has handled the sale of a property for me, swiftly, without fuss or delay and in an impressive 8.5 weeks from me accepting the offer to completion! Phone calls are always answered promptly, e-mails responded to at an impressive speed and always friendly and professionally. I can't recommend Bower Bailey highly enough.
