Dispute

I went to see George Orton for advice on a delayed flight claim being too busy to mess about with BA and the constant shifting of email addresses who and where to contact myself .
George Orton was thorough and did everything necessary on my behalf to claim my compensation .
Boys and Maughn solicitors in Margate are there to help advise and take the stress out of your case . They are transparent in all aspects of your instructions . I would recommend both George Orton and Lucy Brown from Boys and Maughn to assist you and take the anxiety out of your case .
Thank you both

Flawless execution and comes highly recommended

5

In short, George is an exceptional solicitor who (and in my case) demonstrated a calming voice during a high-value commercial matter. George is a consummate professional, one who provided clear, comprehensive guidance from the outset. His no-rush, thoughtful strategy led to a welcome outcome. Moreover, and unlike other solicitors, George does not watch the clock. Instead, the approach being one of cost reduction and for his client to receive the very best outcome possible. Flawless execution and comes highly recommended

Their communication was clear, timely, and always reassuring we felt supported and well-informed every step of the way. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to resolve the issue efficiently and protect our organisation’s interests without unnecessary escalation.

We would not hesitate to recommend George at Boys & Maughan Solicitors to others seeking strong legal advice and a steady hand in challenging situations.

More Excellent Service

5

I have been using Boys & Maughan for Private Client matters for around 20 years, but this was my first Litigation.

George Orton's advice was superb from the outset. He clearly laid out all the pros and cons for me to be able to make a balanced judgement as to my best course of action, both in time and financially.

Reassuring

5

I need professional advice in relation to acting as a Power of Attorney for admission to a care home for an elderly relative.
The contract was not at all clear and having heard horror stories of relatives being expected to act as guarantors for the fees I wanted to ensure that I did not unwittingly fall into that category.

Thanks to George I managed to ensure that this did not happen.

Redundancy settlement

George was highly professional walking me through the settlement agreement proposed by my employer. Following our initial consultation George was able to reach out to the relevant HR representative and complete the agreement in an efficient manner.
