Professionalism with a smile.

This review is for a different branch.

My wife and I first used Bridge McFarland when we returned from a decade in France. We received first rate service, despite the problems our buyer caused in a very protracted affair. We never got to meet the team looking after that sale and the corresponding purchase in Lincolnshire.

Fast forward 5 years and this time we were looked after by a different solicitor, Mia Harper, who was supported by an excellent team of assistants.

Evie Shaw was our main contact and she proved to be a very calming influence for us in what again, proved a less than straightforward sale and purchase. Utterly efficient but exuding friendliness. However, if Evie wasn't available, her colleagues were similarly helpful and efficient.

This time we got to meet most of the people handling our transactions and beginning with the ladies on reception, the people we met were always cheerful and very welcoming but quick to respond to the reason for the visit.

Thank you all at Bridge McFarland from Steve and Gilly Dickinson.

I found the staff at the firm very approachable, efficient, and professional, and they did exactly as I requested. It did cost rather more than I expected as the amendment was minor.

On time. Lovely lady. Easily approachable. Did explain we only needed to amend our documents and not make new ones this saved us 50%, although still thought it was expensive. Very helpful in another matter and it was free of charge.

Friendly, helpful, informative and Efficient Service

This review is for a different branch.

My fellow executor and I cannot fault the excellent service we have received in the sale of our late mother's house. We gave instructions for the sale the week before Xmas and by the end of January, thanks to Mr. Odam and his team, our side was in a position to complete. However, because others further down the chain were unresponsive, it took another 2 months for the completion to take place after some prodding from our side.
We have previously instructed Mr. Odam for the sale of another of our properties and received the same exemplary service then so we would have not hesitation in recommending him and Bridge McFarland again.

Probate for our mum .

Oliva Rocks was helpful and informative. We did not fully understand the process for completing Probate and she was able to reassure us and complete it the necessary steps needed .
One of the most important factors was the fact that Olivia updated us on a regular basis. We never had to chase her up for updates . She was very professional at all times and we would highly recommend her again .

Chloe dealt with our house sale, after we had used Bridge McFarland in Grimsby before and were very satisfied. Chloe went out of her way to ensure our sale went well, and she pushed for us every step of the way. It was a frustrating sale, but Chloe made it easier for us. Thank you so much Bridge McFarland and even bigger thanks to Chloe!

Olivia Rocks helped us with probate and HMRC paperwork following the bereavement of my Mother. Olivia is very professional and easy to deal with. Her actions and responses were swift, and communication from her, via email, was excellent. I would definitely recommend Olivia to friends and family. Robert Allan

Great service from Bridge McFarland during our recent house move.

Michelle Bradford deal with our sale & purchase incredibly well and kept us well informed throughout.

Special mention to Ioana who was on the other end of our many phone calls and queries as the completion date approached. Ioana always dealt with our calls and emails professionally and responded promptly. She is a credit to her firm.
