Natalie was very helpful with my case, making sure I understood what the legal documents and jargon meant, and then suggesting ways to protect me. When I made my own suggestions she was always receptive and helped make sure we got to a place that was beneficial to myself, but also watertight from a legal standpoint. She also made sure I was aware of any additional costs that could be incurred. I was very happy with her service, how she dealt with the case and how personable she was. Thank you, Natalie!

Abigail Bratchel at Barcan+Kirby has been incredibly helpful and supportive. She consistently responded to my inquiries with patience and professionalism, even when addressing some of my more basic questions. Her exceptional ability to work with a diverse range of clients, from experienced buyers to first-time homebuyers, is a remarkable asset to the company. She is one of the main reasons I will recommend B+K to my friends and colleagues.
Kim Pratt at Barcan+Kirby is a valuable asset to any organization she works with. It’s rare to encounter such a dedicated and sincere professional. Her communication with me as a client, as well as with other third parties involved in the transaction, was consistently professional and reassuring.
Building trust with clients is essential, and her performance earned both my respect and confidence.
A representative from Barcan+Kirby LLP responded to this review on 16 December, 2024:
Thank you for this wonderful review, Amir. It's lovely to hear you had such a great experience with Abigail and Kim and we look forward to working with you again in the future!
