As an experienced Wills and Probate Solicitor and a full member of The Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP), I always work to the highest standard, and with each client's best interests at heart.
Everybody's circumstances are different, so any advice I give will always be personal and tailored to you.
Whether you need help preparing a Will or Lasting Power of Attorney, or dealing with Probate or the administration of an estate, I will make things as simple and stress-free as possible.
I deal with often delicate matters in a professional way. So whether you wish to discuss providing for a surviving partner while protecting the interests of your children, or would like to ensure your affairs are looked after if you lose the ability to do so yourself, please get in touch.
I am proud of many things I have achieved in my legal career. However, I was particularly delighted to have earned the title of Trust and Estate Practitioner (TEP) as a full member of The Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners, which validates my expertise and gives my clients a little extra reassurance.

Review of Will
I have used Burnett Barker previously to update an older Will so used them again after the death of my husband. Henrietta provided me with information which was very helpful in preparing my new Will. The Will was prepared and I was very happy with it. It was a very easy process and was completed quickly. Excellent advice and service.

Good experience
I had a friendly and approachable experience, very informative but kept the communication to a minimum which keeps the cost down but also quick to answer any queries I had sent by email.

Advice and preparing Will
From start to finish I found Burnett Barker solicitors and Henrietta Brett very professional, yet friendly and approachable. Henrietta advised me about preparing my Will in an easy to understand and straightforward manner, giving sensible and honest legal advice. I felt comfortable asking questions. It was a smooth and painless process and I was kept fully informed of each stage as the Will progressed. I was advised of the cost from the outset. I would definitely use Burnett Barker again and have no hesitation in recommending them.
