I would highly recommend

5

I cannot recommend Lindsey and Nicola highly enough. Throughout a difficult and often painful process they made everything so much easier to navigate. Their professionalism, understanding, and unwavering support were invaluable and they truly went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. They turned what could have been an overwhelming experience into something much more manageable, and for that, I am deeply grateful.

Amendment of my will. Arranging Lasting Power of Attorney

5

I found it straightforward to make an appointment. There was a friendly, relaxed atmosphere which was reassuring. My solicitor was professional and knowledgeable. I was given plenty of time to ask questions and has clear answers. The legal service was concluded in good time at the cost first stated. I would certainly recommend Barker Gotelee to others.

Excellent from start to finish..

Lindsey Luke and Caroline were the members of Barker Gotelee I had dealings with, all of of whom for different reasons and on different occasions were excellent from the start of an estate probate process, through the conveyancing of a property to the conclusion. Professional, clear in costings, friendly, timely and approachable. I would definitely recommend this company to others.

Considerate Service

I was very impressed with the service from the point of contact to the final completion of my will. Lindsey visited me at home on two occasions. in order to compile the information and subsequent paperwork. Lindsey was so friendly, informative and extremely professional, a pleasure to do business with.

LPA's

5

After attempting (and failing) to complete LPA's for my mother online, we went to see Lindsey at Barker Gotelee. What a lovely lady, so helpful, kind and patient with mum (who has dementia). The process was explained throughout and lifted that particular stress from my shoulders. Would recommend to everyone.

Friendly & expert advice

From the beginning, Lindsey made us feel relaxed and at ease with all the complicated legal process. We were reviewing our wills and setting up powers of attorney. Lindsey was always available to answer questions and made the whole experience run smoothly. We would highly recommend her services.
