Excellent service!

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his prompt action and after only a couple of succinct and effective emails to the person who lodged the caveat, it was withdrawn.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!

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!!
