Provided excellent service

This review is for a different branch.

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.

Excellent from start to finish. Matt was professional & proactive throughout what was a challenging purchase (due to other solicitor primarily!). Matt was a calming influence throughout and was extremely diligent on every aspect. Thanks again Matt.

The whole experience was stress free. We did not involve an estate agent, so we had to rely on our solicitors.
Our face to face contact was Ella Woodier, she was very approachable and helpful with any queries we had, responding quickly.

Butcher and Barlow were recommended by my estate agent. They worked extremely well together so that I felt informed and in good hands. It was always easy to get hold of someone friendly to speak to and everything felt very efficient.

We recently sold my late Mother’s house and received excellent service from

Excellent service

I had the pleasure of Mohammed Balal looking after me with my employment settlement agreement. He has made the process stress free which was my main aim when having to seek legal advice. We have been through the contract together and everything has been broken down and explained in a way I can understand. Every question I had was answered clearly and professionally. I was provided the best price after getting a few quotes from other solicitors and very happy with my choice. The best compliment I can say is I would absolutely recommend to my friends and family.

I've used Karen Baker twice now, first time for selling, and the second for buying. Her knowledge and help is second to none. She picked four faults in the sellers solicitors contract, which would have caused so many problems further down the line. I would highly recommend her & Heyman &Co............Thank you Karen.

I used Karen Baker twice for house purchase/sale, as the first experience was great. She came recommended by my sister who works in the mortgage sector and heard/had experienced clients being very happy with her. She was exactly what I needed. Clear and honest advice. Would use again before risking anywhere else.

When we were purchasing our first house, Heyman & co were recommended by a few friends and family members. We were put in contact with Karen, Who was able to spot a massive flaw in our first house the second she received the paperwork, one that would have caused major headaches down the line. Thankfully, we took on her advice and looked elsewhere - Finding a much better house that more suited our needs. Throught the buying process, Karen was extremely responsive, giving her full thoughts and being straight to the point - which helped us massively in making decisions especially as this was out first purchase. Fantastic service all around and extremely friendly!!
