It was a pleasure to deal with Emily. She gave very clear and useful advice, and immediately grasped our situation and the facts regarding our circumstances. Everything went very smoothly and we would certainly use her again.

This review is for a different branch.

I had a truly positive experience using Butcher & Barlow Solicitors for an employment matter.
Mohammed came highly recommended to me, and I can see why. From the outset, he was extremely prompt in reaching out and made every step of the process clear and easy to understand.

He took the time to explain the progress from start to finish, and his reassurance that he was just a phone call away if I had any questions was incredibly comforting. The ID check process was simple and efficient, and everything was handled very swiftly.

We arranged a virtual meeting to go through my documentation in detail, and Mohammed was not only friendly and approachable, but also clearly very knowledgeable and professional. I was particularly impressed by how quickly everything was completed — my case was resolved within just 7 working days.

Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the service I received and wouldn’t hesitate to use Butcher & Barlow again in the future.

Thanks again

Completed on our home last Thursday and had used Butcher & Barlow (44 church st leigh) based on a recommendation of how good Karen is.

Kirsty Frain took point on this for us and it took little over 2months from instruction, through to completion with advice/guidance given where needed, laser sharp (in exactly the way you'd want your solicitor to be!)

I hope i don't need conveyancing again any time soon, but if I do i'll be coming straight back here.

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.
