I phoned mark with a passing off issue with our business. Mark explained everything to me over the phone and made everything extremely clear. We came up with a plan of action and mark dealt with it extremely quickly. Mark followed up and we have very quickly got the results we were hoping for. Thank you

Could not be better looked after

We have been in business for over 59 years, yet had little experience in the area of expertise required to deal with the commercial tenant issue we found ourselves in, Paige guided us through it, and we got an unexpected positive result.

Very professional approach giving us all the details which we needed to make informed decisions and challenge the landlords as needed to get to the right place for us. Also done in a very friendly way which I really appreciated. The combination of these two approaches made it very easy to do business with Zoe and her team.

Happy with everything


I have dealt with several of the partners and staff at Butcher and Barlow over the last seven years and have been delighted by their approachable, helpful nature and their high professional standards. Having spent 40 years in business, including 20 years running my own, I know that finding a reliable law firm is not easy, and I wish I had discovered them sooner. Although Butcher and Barlow are not local to me and I haven’t used them for my business, they have handled a number of different issues exceptionally well. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Great litigation experience and service

As an SME navigating complex client interactions in a commercial setting can be very difficult. Whilst we're experts in our own fields navigating running the business and dealing with any litigation complexities needs lawyers who are responsive, reassuring and deliver the best outcome. Butcher and Barlow did this for us and resolved our issue quickly, with minimum fuss. Couldn't have asked for more.

During such a low ebb in my life Mark Turner from this practice was professional, compassionate, honest, truthful and offered genuine advice on my situation. I would have no hesitation in reccomending their services or using them again in the future.

I have been on this planet for many a year, and have had countless dealings with different people and organisations.

Perhaps I am one of those blessed or very lucky individuals, but generally speaking, all my dealings with B & B have been painless.
Having said that, I don't think that my guardian angels have anything to do with the most professional and customer friendly treatment I have received from ALL at Butcher & Barlow (NORTHWICH).
I was not expecting a ''What do you think of Butcher & Barlow'' today because I have done business with them a few occasions prior.
However, when I left their office today I told the dear lady at the front desk that I thought they were all very charming people.

For over 12 months, Mark Fletcher at Butcher and Barlow has been providing me with excellent legal advice. Although it sometimes might not have been what I wanted to hear, it was always in my best interests. Mark informed me of the fees up front so there were never any hidden costs. Communication and follow-up was excellent and Mark was able to discuss my case either on the phone, by email or face to face. I would highly recommend Butcher and Barlow.

We have used Butcher & Barlow for a few years and we couldn't be happier. We are told every update each step of the way and are included and informed in each decision. Plus, our case handler is amazing.

If you require a solicitor, use these.
