We were fully informed on all steps going through the process.
We felt confident in Ronda and all the BG staff involved. We were helped and our minds put at rest after every phone call made.

Unfortunately I would not recommend BG Solicitors. I had a very stressful experience as their client.
Key documents were delayed due to avoidable errors, communication was poor throughout, and important details were overlooked, causing unnecessary stress and additional costs. I also experienced a complete lack of updates during a critical stage of the process, which impacted my relationship with my buyer. Overall, the service I received was lacking in many areas, so I would not recommend based on my experience.

My family has used BG for 3 generations. After some changes in solicitor (some unavoidable) Michaela steadied the ship with the help of Charlotte and later Wendy. I live overseas and the single most important thing to me was good communication and Wendy didn't miss a single email keeping me updated. Very happy with team Michaela and Wendy. So thankful this sale is now behind me. They were a calming unfluence during a very stressful time.
A representative from Bg Solicitors LLP responded to this review on 13 June, 2025:
Hi Richard. Thank you for your wonderful feedback and for trusting BG across three generations! We’re so pleased Michaela, Charlotte, and Wendy provided the steady support and clear communication you needed, especially from overseas. It means a lot to know we could help ease your stress during this time. Wishing you all the best moving forward!

Unfortunately, I had to pursue the above matter via the legal path and approached BG Solicitors LLP. Once assigned to the case, Denise Bell was excellent. Her actions were prompt, clear and helpful. It was also possible to speak to her directly when needed, and I found her to be very approachable. So, for matters of this nature, I have no hesitation of recommending Denise or BG Solicitors.

Thank you for your kind feedback, Darryl. We're pleased to hear that Denise provided you with prompt and helpful support. We truly appreciate your recommendation!

He was joined in 1953 by Lawrence Gibbon and their initials still remain as the name of our firm.

Our clients, both private and commercial, demand a first-class legal service, and through our commitment to quality standards throughout all areas of the practice, we ensure that’s exactly what they receive. The original BG base in Grimsby remains our largest office space, occupying a convenient central location with excellent access to public transport as well as nearby parking. In 2007 we incorporated the business and staff of Louth based Scammell & Braithwaite into BG Solicitors LLP and acquired our first satellite office. The merging of this well-respected firm into our own means that we now have a central Louth office, serving the needs of not only the local Louth clients but also those from the many surrounding villages.
