Collected on:
I was very pleased with the service provided by Butcher Barlow. I had not used their service before and required a solicitor with knowledge of employment law.
My case was handled by Mohammed. From start to finish the whole process was handled very professionally. The likely progression of the matter was explained clearly at the outset and I was kept up to date by e mail and phone calls until its conclusion.
I would recommend BB for any future legal issues.

Collected on:
We needed a solicitor initially to help with Probate but,in particular, we needed someone who would guide us about Trusts for our grandchild whose father had died. Chris was brilliant. He helped us negotiate the whole process and we were happy to instruct a colleague to manage the property sale too. I'd say a special thank you to Paula who, at the end of a phone, never made us feel that our questions were anything other than welcome. We'd never go anywhere else.

Butcher And Barlow LLP was recommended by a colleague when I received my settlement agreement from work. Mohammed Balal contacted me right away and let me know what he could do. He also responds within 24 hours and keeps you updated on your case. Butcher And Barlow LLP was extremely professional, and knowledgeable. Mohammed is a very nice attorney and I definitely recommend him.
