Best family solicitor

From the first call I had with Jaime to 2 years later having the final court orders, Jaime has been brilliant. She has communicated promptly, explaining the process and following up with all aspects of the work. She has got the desired outcome I was looking for and much more. I highly recommend Jaime and am extremely happy with all the work she has carried out for me.

Amazing Service

Acting as LPA for the sale of my Dads property, I could not have wished for a smoother and stress free service. Karen Mitchell, who was my contact throughout, kept me fully informed at all times. When it comes to selling my own property, I will not hesitate to use Karen and BTMK again.

About this branch

Description

Many years ago, there were four leading law firms based in South Essex. Travell Horner, Bates & Partners, Twitchen & Musters, and finally Robinson & Kelly. The first two, Travell Horner and Bates & Partners merged and became Bates Travell, and then the other two superb law firms Twitchen & Musters and Robinson Kelly also came together to become Twitchen, Musters, Robinson & Kelly – which was a bit of a mouthful so they became TMK Solicitors in due course. These two exceptional legal practices continued until they decided to join forces and became the BTMK that we know and love today.

Practice areas

All areas of personal law such as family & matrimonial, litigation & dispute resolution, professional negligence, childcare, employment law, insolvency, personal injury & clinical negligence, wills, probate, trusts & inheritance, injunctions, contentious probate and will disputes. All areas of commercial and business related law such as commercial property (buying, selling, entering into, disposing), business sales and acquisitions, commercial litigation and dispute resolution, intellectual property, insolvency and winding-up procedures, injunctions and employer related employment work.
