Excellent service

The entire staff managed to make what is definitely one of life's stressful experiences, as smooth running as possible. I was kept up to date at all times, which was great. I can't thank the whole staff enough for their friendly, understanding and highly professional approach to my house move.

Purchase of property following divorce

Kelly and her team, particularly Gill, Bethany and Kurtis, have been outstanding to deal with. They've been very patient with me through the whole process, and when the right house became available, we completed the transaction in 10 weeks.

I would strongly recommend BTMK to work with. They are extremely diligent, and also very supportive and empathetic.

Really appreciate their quick and simple response.

Had been back and forth with a previous firm for over 3 months, I contacted BTMK and got a phone call the same day and my questions answered. Unfortunately we can’t pursue the case I wanted, but should I ever need to for anything else then I’ll definitely come back.

Great customer service, quick, courteous, and helpful! Thanks again.

Adam, Gabrielle and Harrison at BTMK - offered us the most professional, honest and speedy squatter eviction service we could have hoped for.

From the moment we instructed them - we felt like we were in the hands of true professionals who genuinely cared about the urgency of the issue. The took action immediately and kept us updated everyday. Their fees were affordable, transparent and certainly well worth it.

We are so glad we chose BTMK and will never look elsewhere for any other business legal issues we may face in the future.

Absolutely five star service from the entire team.

About this branch

Description

Many years ago, there were four leading law firms based in South Essex. Travell Horner, Bates & Partners, Twitchen & Musters, and finally Robinson & Kelly. The first two, Travell Horner and Bates & Partners merged and became Bates Travell, and then the other two superb law firms Twitchen & Musters and Robinson Kelly also came together to become Twitchen, Musters, Robinson & Kelly – which was a bit of a mouthful so they became TMK Solicitors in due course. These two exceptional legal practices continued until they decided to join forces and became the BTMK that we know and love today.

Practice areas

All areas of personal law such as family & matrimonial, litigation & dispute resolution, professional negligence, childcare, employment law, insolvency, personal injury & clinical negligence, wills, probate, trusts & inheritance, injunctions, contentious probate and will disputes. All areas of commercial and business related law such as commercial property (buying, selling, entering into, disposing), business sales and acquisitions, commercial litigation and dispute resolution, intellectual property, insolvency and winding-up procedures, injunctions and employer related employment work.
