Professional, clear and honest advice

5

I used Blanchards Bailey for all my legal business needs, finishing off with the sale of the company.

All the advice was clear and honest, my expectations (or lack of) were set out and we explored different avenues and approaches to contracts and agreements etc.

The firm dealt with everything in a smooth and timely manner, and by the end of our discussions we had managed to gain more financially in the sale than their legal fees - a very much unexpected and appreciated result.

I would happily recommend Blanchards Bailey to anyone looking for professional, clear and honest commercial legal advice.

Paul and his team at Blanchards Bailey LLP have been invaluable to us on multiple and diverse matters. From personal to business cases like buying our house, drawing our wills, purchase of land, financial facility agreements, business contracts and debt recovery, we have felt supported, listened to and educated where we did not understand. They have a friendly approach, competitive rates and have gone above and beyond for all matters they have been involved with. We can highly recommend them and will continue to do business with them moving forward.
