Collected on:
After a very stressful and costly experience with another law firm, I was worried that I wouldn’t find a good solicitor to help me with my dispute. After calling several firms, I had an initial call with Thomas Sedley and felt comfortable with him immediately. He clearly explained what steps he would take to get the caveat on my probate application removed and was transparent about estimated costs. He was also very professional, personable and empathetic, which made the decision to instruct him even easier. I was impressed with his prompt action and after only a couple of succinct and effective emails to the person who lodged the caveat, it was withdrawn. This was a huge relief as I anticipated the dispute would drag on for many more months.
I highly recommend Thomas for dispute resolution and I would be happy to use Butcher & Barlow again when I need further legal help. Thank you!
