Reviews of Barcan+Kirby Solicitors
N. S.
Barcan+Kirby have helped me through a very difficult period extremely well. Kirsten Hale has been an oasis of calm and commonsense throughout. She stepped in at short notice to replace a colleague who was ill and has been a wonderful tower of strength. I would highly recommend her services.
t. p.
I cannot highly recommend Barcan + Kirby solicitors enough , especially Fiona Dabell.
Fiona took my case on in April 2019. I found her extremely professional , very empathetic, honest and supportive at all times. Kept me informed and updated throughout. When I dealt with Fiona she made me feel like I was her only client (obviously this is not the situation). This is a measure of her dedication to her clientele. I am immensely grateful for the settlement she achieved for me. I am going to miss the regular contact we had as Fiona has been a pillar of support over the last three years especially through the difficult times. I can’t thank you enough Fiona.

We've been dealing with B+K for years for selling properties in Bristol. They've been very efficient and always responding professionally.
We are dealing with them now for a different matter and their response has been extremely disappointing. Unprofessional, without any regards for our requirements.
They demand upfront payment when engaging with one of their senior solicitors and the follow up has been nil, zero after nearly 2 weeks.
We find ourselves in the position where having wasted that upfront fee (not cheap),are looking elsewhere for someone to represent our small business.
As an edited post I have to add that BK did eventually get back to us .
They are dealing with our matter in a professional and efficient way at the moment and hopefully will continue to do so.
I hope that in the future, communication with clients is improved at the initial stages.
F. C.
I was mostly happy with the service provided by Fiona at Barcan&Kirby. She led us through the case, explained when we didn’t understand and was thorough in providing expert witnesses to consider the case. Our only gripe was attention to detail in documents: incorrect dates, names spelt wrong etc. It meant on occasions we had the impression of sloppiness and as my mother was dying this was extremely distressing to her, to think her case wasn’t important enough to get details right. I’d use Fiona again, but I’d be diligent in checking through documents and I really think it’s the job of the solicitors.
J. D.
I can’t praise Fiona dabell enough and this company ! They have fought for me right to the end , they make things as stress free as possible , very professional kind and great communication all the way through! Thank you Barcan+kirby

Kirsten Hale (aided by Amber Sutton) at B+K Queen Square handled my divorce. She was really efficient and nice to deal with, she explained everything in stages as we went along, and had very good attention to detail. She's very professional and also has a personal touch which I really appreciated. I'd highly recommend B+K and felt looked after by them throughout a stressful and difficult process.
S. Q.
Although Barcan+Kirby were unable to represent me on this occasion, I still feel compelled to write this review. One of their Trainee Solicitors, Alicia Perry Watts, responded to my enquiry within hours. Not only did she afford me the time to explain my situation on the telephone - to which she responded with kindness and sensitivity - but she also wrote me a detailed follow-up letter explaining why the firm made the decision they did. In contrast, not a single one of the other firms I made an enquiry with with have responded. So, overall, my experience of Barcan+Kirby was outstanding - well done! If I need a law firm in the future, I'll be in touch.
S. D.
Very pleased with the service and outcome I've received from Barcan+Kirby. I have received total consideration and advice. Thank you Fiona.
S. J.
I am very pleased with the service I have received from Solicitor Isabel Harper and colleagues. My case was complicated and Isabel was kind and supportive through these challenges as well as being very thorough, always answering queries quickly and with sensitivity. Very professional and I would highly recommend.
M. H.
Excellent service throughout dealing with the sale of our property. Kept us informed at every step of the process. We would not hesitate in dealing with them again or recommending them to friends.
G. B.
I was very pleased with the service that Charlotte and her colleagues provided. She kept me informed every step of the way and answered all of my enquiries promptly. Charlotte was very sympathetic to the difficult situation I found myself in after the tragic loss of my wife. I would not hesitate in recommending Barcan & Kirby, and in particular, Charlotte, to anyone who asked. Thank you for all your help.
T. F.
Barcan+Kirby have a great team of people who are friendly, responsive with their replies, and professional.
My case was quickly dealt with in a professional way, A LOT quicker than i expected!! T
hey made it easy for me to understand the things i was not sure about, the team replied quickly to my emails, and even out of their working hours reply!!! :o
Great service all round, and highly recommended,

I engaged in a very contentious divorce & Hanni Pennelegion & her team were able to diffuse and sort through the nonsense from the other side & provide me with an amazing service.
I ended up at a final hearing and Hanni held my hand all the way through & we won, for want of a better word, against the other side.
I kept my home, my business & my investment properties. The other side were offering £250k & I walked away with £900k. So quite a win for me.
The service is responsive & caring, Hanni & her team are very caring and want the best for their clients. They go the extra mile & are very responsive to clients.
Hanni has an excellent grasp of complex financial matters such as pensions & valuations of businesses etc & was able to offer sensible solutions to complex problems.
Had the other side been sensible & acted fairly the whole matter could have been dealt with quickly & efficiently.
Over the 3 years Hanni was advising me I felt in very good hands.
Thank you to Hanni, Kirsten & Alice & all the others on the team.
Sam Hawkins.
H. G.
Barcan & Kirby provided a brilliant service throughout my very drawn out divorce. Kirsten Hale and Alice Gibson were amazing, they were very professional, pro-active and efficient, as well as being at the end of the phone or email whenever I had any questions. They gave very sensible advice at every stage and I felt very lucky to have them in my corner throughout a stressful process. I also felt that the service they provided was incredibly good value on the fixed rate that B&K have available. Could not recommend them enough!
H. O. F.
I was very happy with the service provided to me at Barcan+Kirby Solicitors, the Solicitor provided the answers to all my questions and proceeded to help me along the probate questions I had at the time to be put forward to the Executor and Administrators, there was a positive outcome and all went well. Very grateful to my Solicitor Mark Scanlon and team, if needed again I will approach them for more services. All the best, Lorraine
T. S.
After being knocked off my bike by a car, Barcan Kirby helped me pursue a successful claim against the driver. Samantha Castle was friendly, profession and efficient throughout and everything was explained to me so I understood the process well. During Samantha’s maternity leave, Kirsty Bancroft took over seamlessly and also provided excellent service. I would use the company again if I required a solicitor in the future.
A. A.
Excellent service and friendly team myfanwy Buckeridge has been excellent she is always there to answer question that I have thank you so much for what has been a very difficult time for myself and family
A. M.
Great value for money - dealt with all the necessary things for a house purchase. Very helpful answering all my questions and providing advice. Supportive and quick to respond. Great job. Thank you Laura and Robyn.
M. G.
Barcan + Kirby are an excellent company,Fiona Dabbel dealt with my case extremely well ,she was very professional and compassionate throughout the journey of my claim for medical negligence in which has just been settled after almost 5 years,my claim became quite a long and complicated case and Fiona was there for me all the way and helped and quided me through the whole process.I cannot thank her enough for all her help and hard work. I would highly recommend Fiona and Barcon + Kirby.
S. A.
I am happy with the outcome of the case and how our solicitor Nick Howell, dealt with all matters. The case lasted more than 3 years but B&K were engaged and Nick supported us all the way through giving advice and guidance and making sure we were a step ahead all the way. The case was very expensive but the costs order after winning has more than covered this.
Overall I am glad that the knowledge and persistency of our solicitor and their chosen barrister won us the case and justice was served.
A. А.
Barcan+Kirby have helped me through a lot of issues, took a lot of pressure off me and delivered the outstanding service and support I needed.
The company was able to offer help and assistance even during the lockdown period.
Particular thanks to Kirsten Hale,Tom Powles and Stephen Parker who dealt with various matters to the highest standard. Their professionalism, determination and confidence developed into an excellent outcome. Guarded by Kirsten, Tom and Stephen I felt very safe and secure. At the times when I was getting lost in all the legal stuff, I knew my interests were well protected and were going to be sorted.
Would highly recommend!
P. A.
I used a solicitor (Nick) at Barcan+Kirby to sort out a legal matter, and I'm glad I chose this company. Their whole approach is prompt and professional, but they also consider your wellbeing, and that you are a human being! Every question I asked my solicitor was answered quickly, and anything I didn't understand was explained so I could make sense of my options (e.g. some parts I could complete myself) and the legal processes and terminology involved. At a very stressful time, it was a great relief to know I had someone fighting my corner and representing me.
M. C.
Barcan+Kirby have acted on our behalf during the process of our business sale. In particular Georgina has been amazing. It has been a long process and George has been there for us every step of the way with professional advice and support to enable us to get over the line. I would have no hesitation in highly recommending Georgina and her team in any aspect of legal work.
D. M.
Nick and Laura were very good to work with! Our first phone call together went smoothly, was well managed and provided me better legal awareness of my issue.
The follow-up paperwork and invoice was sent through quickly with good detail. Would recommend.
J. E.
Kristen Hale processed my divorce and financial agreements. I really appreciated her frank and honest advice throughout. They handled every stage of the process brilliantly and communication was excellent. Unfortunately my ex delayed the process at every turn but despite me being on a fixed price and Kristen having to spend many hours over what was covered by this it did not change the service I received she was brilliant to the end. Would highly recommend her services for what is a difficult process to navigate.
Y. S.
I got a great sense of friendliness and efficiency right from my first call to Barcan & Kirby and that welcoming feeling was maintained all the way through - one the phone and in the offices. So there is evidently a great culture of excellent customer experience and engaged staff who are happy enough to deliver great service.
The service, specifically from the Employment team, is flexible and prompt. My solicitor (Iysha Daftari-Clarke) is thorough and she explains details and stages clearly without jargon, and all the while her interaction is always friendly and patient. Iysha kept me informed with each stage of my case, the next steps and any resulting charges. And is generally a really nice person to engage with.
When I was looking for legal service a different firm did not offer the flexibility of a basic level nor the possibility of upgrading if necessary. By contrast Barcan & Kirby had a simple and flexible structure of services and fees.
We would all like to pay less for anything and it's easy for a workload to expand when a case goes back and forth with more attention to detail, and the fees increase as a result. With Iysha her knowledge and diligence was so evident that I knew I was getting value for money and I didn’t get a shock about fees because she kept me informed at each stage, before the fees were incurred.
I wholeheartedly recommend Barcan & Kirby for their legal advice, support and general engagement. There is evidently a consistent culture of great customer service. The support teams are so efficient and friendly… you even get the sense that they're smiling at you down the phone.
C. D.
Excellent legal service. Kirsten Hale and Alisa Sucheki did a superb job whilst representing me through a divorce. They helped to demystify the legal process, gave clear and thorough updates at each stage and were always helpful in responding to queries. I paid a fixed fee for a divorce and for a financial agreement and I feel it was good value, especially as it removed all of the stress of completing paperwork on my own. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and supportive legal representation.
P. C.
I recently had a telephone meeting with Nick Howell concerning some much needed legal advice. Nick gave me straightforward information concerning my rights and my options and I finished the meeting with a much clearer idea as to the best way to proceed. Nick's approach was friendly, professional and well-informed and I am glad that I decided to use the service before taking action.
N. K.
Barcan+Kirby responded very quickly to me and promptly provided legal advice at a time when time was of the essence. They worked in partnership with me and kept me updated throughout my case.
C. D.
I went to the firm at a difficult time, My first meeting with Kirsten Hale helped me Feel more at ease as she explained the process and answered all my questions with a good mixture of professionalism and empathy. The fixed fee choice suited me well and meant I knew how much the divorce would cost. Kirsten and her associates answered questions by phone and email whenever required and went the extra mile when I asked for specific reassurances. Kirsten handled a couple of tricky situations extremely well, and gave sound advice which helped me feel in control of the whole process. The only delay was due to the family court losing some documents, this was also handled well.
A. M.
I got in touch with Barcan+Kirby at a challenging time. It was a reassuring feeling to speak to somebody who was willing to help. It was not my first choice to seek the help of the solicitor but it soon became indispensable. The option of the fixed fee package was useful to keep the cost down and the firm has always been very clear about their fees to avoid bad surprises. I even got some money back…
The solicitor who dealt with my case is very competent with financial matters and managed to secure a financial deal for me in a pretty hostile environment. The deal has been signed outside of Court which helped reduce the cost as well. The solicitor was able to defend my financial interests. At the same time, she was aware of her limits. As far as I am concerned, this is a proof of professionalism. Ethically irreproachable…
R. M.
The service, advice and support that I have received from Barcan+Kirby, and most notably Myfanwy Buckeridge, has been outstanding. The professionalism, quality and, importantly, the sensitivity of the advice and service has guided me through a challenging process that has resulted in a number of important benefits and an excellent outcome. I am hugely grateful and would have no hesitation in recommending this firm to others pursuing or considering a personal injury claim.
S. G.
I would Highly recommend Barcan + Kirby Solicitors especially Nick Howell and his team, they have been very helpful and responsive in helping me with my case and obtaining all the necessary information. All the conversations and information provided by Nick have been very professional and filled me with confidence that I have the best chance of winning my case and getting the right and fair result. I would definitely use them again in any future situations that require their support and guidance.
J. B. M.
I chose Barcan + Kirby due to their presence in my local area of Bristol.
I'm very glad that I did, as from the initial phone call, an appointment / consultation was made very quickly. I immediately felt safe and confident that I'd made the right choice. I don't wish to go into too much detail, but my case was to do with clinical negligence (a misdiagnosis resulting in further long-term inconvenience and injury - an un-noticed achilles tendon rupture). I'd never made a claim in my life before, so I was nervous and apprehensive at first, but I was briefed quite thoroughly in an easy-to-understand way about what going forth with the case would entail. My personal solicitor was Fiona Dabell - she showed sympathy towards my situation whilst remaining very professional. All emails and calls were answered swiftly and I was updated as things progressed.
The case was quite long (over a year), but this is the nature of such a case as many consultations and medical reports are required. Personally, I appreciate this kind of thorough approach as, if one is going to go ahead with this kind of action, then no stone should be left unturned.
I didn't intend to write such a long review but essentially, I would most certainly opt for Barcan + Kirby again should the situation arise, and I would thoroughly recommend them.
S. M.
I have had an emotionally difficult situation to resolve and found Mark Scanlan to be both professional and understanding at all times. He offers clear, concise and helpful guidance and where needed support. His no nonsense and systematic approach has been a great comfort and much appreciated.
Having had previous negative experience with lawyers I would add that Mark and his firm have gone a good way towards re-educating me as to their excellent counsel and advice.
many thanks to Mark and his team
C. B.
I approached Barcan & Kirby in connection with a dispute over money owed to me and found them immediately helpful. Nick Howell was quietly constructive and informative in his appraisal of the situation and offered sound advice, upon which I acted. His willingness to follow up with further email advice following our meeting was especially appreciated and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend B&K's service to anyone out there.
C. W.
Barcan+Kirby helped me with my redundancy arrangements in the middle of the Coronavirus pandemic. Even though it was an extremely busy time for employment solicitors, I managed to book a time slot within a couple of working days.
Solicitor Nick Howell was professional and considerate and was able to devote time to my case. This was my first redundancy so I was totally in the dark but he gave excellent advice and support and negotiated with my employer on my behalf.
K. B.
While dealing with Barcan+Kirby Solicitors I found them to be polite, prompt, they also explained all the Legal matters in a way I understood. When given timescales I was kept informed of progress, any delays that arose for any reason & kept in touch. I was also impressed with the way they handled the Covid situation & continued to work whilst in lockdown. I am totally happy & satisfied with their work to resolve my case.
T. P.
I have been using Barcan and Kirby or more importantly Nick Howell for my legal needs for an ongoing situation. I have found everyone that I have encountered from Barcan and Kirby to be incredibly helpful and professional. On first meeting with Nick, I explained the situation and he understood what I was needing straight away and put forward the options. From this point Nick has dealt with the communication with the other party in a professional manner despite that not being the case from the other party. Cool, calm and professional are words I would use to describe Nick. I mean this in a nice way, but I do hope I don't have to hire his services again, but should I need a solicitor, I would not hesitate to call on Nick.
E. H.
Isabel Harper worked very hard for my family, during a claim against our Mothers care home.
Although the case was very emotional, and long, it is nice now to draw a line under it. Thank You Isabel, and your team!
S. S.
I had a legal problem to resolve which was heading to litigation, I had a preliminary chat with Barcan Kirby, and was booked in to see their solicitor Nick Howell. He discussed my case with me in a very knowledgable way, gave me various options and very sound advice. Based on his advice, I engaged with the other party, and was able to resolve my legal problem satisfactorily and have avoided litigation. I will highly recommend Barcan Kirby for their professionalism, and excellent advice. Well worth the fees.
G. B.
I instructed Kirsten Hale of Barcan+Kirby to act on my behalf in my divorce.
The whole divorce process is very stressful as it involves a major change in your life. Seeing your children although mine were in their late teens, moving into another property, settling the finances it all becomes quite difficult.
There were many occasions where I needed to contact Kirsten by phone or email just for reassurance and there was always a reply which was reassuring with an accurate view of the situation.
I was never put in a position of feeling I did not know what was happening or what the end result was likely to be.
Things inevitability take longer than you hope but in the end a satisfactory and fair settlement was achieved.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Kirsten to act for anyone in a divorce situation.
A. H.
Kirsten Hale advised me on my divorce in an easy to understand manner that I could follow during a very stressful time in my life. Kirsten also gave me the confidence to press for what I needed and was entitled to ensuring I received a fair settlement for myself and my children. I would definitely recommend Kirsten's professional and kind assistance with all divorce and legal family matters.
j. c.
I have never had any dealings with lawyers, barristers or the courts so considering starting a medical negligence legal process was to me, quite daunting. I though I had be wronged, but legally had I? My initial call to Barcan+Kirby explained how the process works, the potential outcomes both positive and negative, the timescales and the costs involved.
It has taken some time to get to where I am now, but at all times I have been kept informed and involved with my case. In particular I would like to personally thank my solicitior at Barcan+Kirby, Fiona Dabell. Fiona has been a tower of strength and a beacon of hope, especially when my own resolve began to falter.
The case has been completed to my utter satisfaction. I have no hesitation in recommending Barcan+Kirby to anyone, and if the need arises I will have no hesitation in using them again.
M. O.
We were recommended Barcan + Kirby by our sales broker to act for us in the sale of our Children's Day Nursery based in the North West of England. From start to finish of what turned out to be a longer than expected transaction due to issues outside of all of our control, the whole team reassured us that everything was in the safest possible hands and it really was. The professionalism , understanding of our industry and genuine passion to make sure we were supported and kept informed throughout the process was evident throughout the whole time it took and even during the hard times of the sale we were kept going by the fantastic team looking after us. We have learnt so much throughout this process because the team at Barcan + Kirby made absolutely sure that we understood everything that was happening so that we could make clear informed decisions at every step of the process. I have dealt with many solicitors firms in a business capacity and without doubt will only be returning to Barcan + Kirby in the future as I know I will be in the safest of hands at all times. Thank you for making a difficult transaction a lot easier for us to go through and manage.
A. F.
We (my wife and I) contacted Barcan+Kirby Solicitors with the need for legal advice for a property issue we were having with our neighbours which had plagued our lives for near two years prior. The Customer Relations Team were very understanding and actually listened to what we had to say, and, they were both, friendly and supportive of our situation. Their professional manner was excellent, as rather than pass me around between departments, they found the correct department, spoke to them on my behalf and then offered us dates to setup a appointment with the suitable party that could handle our case, all this in a couple of minutes whilst we were on the phone with them for the first time. They were also accommodating to the fact that my wife’s disability meant that we could not travel into Bristol city centre for the appointment and rather wanted to hold it at their Kingswood branch as it was right around the corner from us. Again, the person on the phone was accommodating and took it upon themselves to check with their colleague about dates and times, and, sure enough, they were able to arrange the appointment to take place at requested branch.
With regards to costs associated, Barcan+Kirby Solicitors were, and always have been, up front and honest of the costs associated and they even offered us a reduced rather for the first appointment which was well received on our part.
The initial appointment itself was very useful and well worth the money spent. Miss Sharlie Sollars, an Associate at Barcan+Kirby Solicitors, with whom we spoke to at the appointment was very professional but also sympathetic and supportive to our plight. We explained our issue, the troubles we had already had and are currently having and she was able to diligently formulate the legal routes we could take to potential remedy the situation, thoroughly running us through both, pros and cons of each option. She then also clearly defined the scope of work that would be required for each option and the associated costs, offering options of setting up a lump sum pot from which funds could be withdrawn etc. All in all, we walked away more informed then we had been previously, and, armed with the information provided, we are now also in talks with our insurance provider to potentially support the legal costs associated with trying to resolve the conflict, should it go to court.
Since, then I have been in touch with the team at Barcan+Kirby Solicitors a couple of time with regards to follow-on queries and have always had my questions answered.
Areas of improvement needed:
Generally, speaking the service is great, however, a couple of areas of improvement/focus should be the response times to follow-on queries, and, forward contact with the person(s) you actually have an appointment with.
Follow-on queries don’t seem to receive the same attention or expedience as those where money is being discussed. Getting a simple response at times is rather slow, and, in my humble opinion, does not feel like it is given the attention that is required; this considering the fact that often times the standard 5-7 days for a reply is not met, not just for emails but as call back requests.
Lastly, although contact details are openly provided for the person(s) with whom you had a face to appointment with, getting in with them touch after the fact, be it via phone or email, seems near impossible (again, expect where queries for billable work is concerned). Considering you, as a customer, build a rapport with said person(s) and look forward to working with them, you are often contacted by intermediaries or other representatives, which although helpful and appreciated, is not what you expect.
Hence, if these two aspects could be improved, the service provided would in my opinion be as excellent.
S. K.
Kirsten really understood my requirements and was honest with me from the beginning. She kept me fully informed and answered my questions quickly. It was a difficult time but she helped me manage my expectations and get through it to a satisfactory conclusion. i would recommend her to anyone going through a separation.
S. B.
I have been working closely with Nick Howell for quite some time. He has been a tremendous support throughout. Most litigation issues are very complex but when you find a solicitor who you can trust, it gives you the confidence and reassurance often needed. I most certainly would not of acheived the sucessful outcome of my court case without the help I received from Nick. If your looking for legal representation, I have no hesitation in recommending Barcan+Kirby.
G. S.
After I had my accident at work ,and I was off work sick ,my sister and alot of other people said go and see a solicitor make a claim.
I did I 1st saw Amiee who was very friendly helpful and explained what would happen.
I have been updated all the way through even when Amie left Emily took over .
They have been professional throughout.
I would truly recommend this firm to anyone thank you for everything.

Excellent service provided by Mr James Bell and his team. A thorough review of the information was completed and my queries were quickly resolved. I am very happy with the timely completion of my case and the quality of services provided. Highly recommended.
L. H.
Excellent company. Fiona is extremely thorough and diligent. Totally professional, yet approachable. Explained difficult situations in an emphatic and simple manner. Extremely knowledgeable – expert in her field. Kept us informed and updated every step of the way. Have and had every confidence in her and her team that they were always acting in our best interest. Thoroughly recommend. Helped us through a very difficult time and process with the upmost, respect, support and patience.
K. W.
On first calling Barcan & Kirby i found them to be helpful and friendly which immediately made me feel at ease. My case was dealt with by Samantha Castle who was efficient and approachable and everything was explained to me thoroughly and clearly and in a way that was easy to understand. I would definitely recommend Barcan & Kirby to anyone needing any legal advice or representation and will continue to use them in the future. Thank you Barcan & Kirby for making a stressful situation a lot easier.
N. S.
I required specialist support with a residential access issue, which James at Barcan Kirby dealt with very efficiently and professionally. Would definitely recommend.
J. W.
I can't fault any of the work carried out by James Bell and his team.
I suspect by the time of some of the emails that were sent he spent more hours than invoiced.
I gave James very little time to prepare for anything let alone actually take my case on as i had left it to the last minute ( 2 days to prepare)
I actually believe had I gone to another solicitor they would not have taken me on.
A friend had dealings with Barcan + Kirby a couple of years ago so I am glad I went with her advice.
Thanks for everything to James and his team
B. D.
I needed some urgent employment support and was seen by Nick Howell of B&K very quickly. I found Nick very professional, going out of his way to ensure I was given the best advice and support at each stage of my claim and would definitely recommend and use again.
k. w.
Barcan & Kirby provided an excellent service throughout the sale of our business. Rob Davenport & his team were very professional & supportive, providing clear and helpful advice at each stage of the process and we would highly recommend them.

Ultimate professionals, Barcan+Kirby
I have had the pleasure to deal with Barcan+Kirby, particularly Kirsten Hale on a recent family law matter and am very satisfied with the professionalism of Kirsten and her team throughout the company. Kirsten provided me with a very comprehensive, compassionate and friendly service with absolute transparency of charges. I would definitely recommend Barcan+Kirby.
P. M.
Helen Franklin dealt with a clinical negligence claim for my family. She was warm, compassionate and patient in dealing with what was a hugely sensitive and emotional situation. However, she was also very professional and sensible in the advice she gave - she never let the emotion we were feeling cloud her judgment. These types of claims are never nice, but I am so glad Helen was by our side guiding us through everything. Thank you Helen.
M. T.
I had Kirsten Hale acting as my solicitor. I could not have asked for a better solicitor. She made sure I understood everything that was going on always had me and my children best interest at heart .When ever I contacted her she always listened and advised me . if she was unavailable she would contact me as soon as she was available often out of hours.
I feel she went out of her way to ensure she achieved the best possible outcome for a very difficult case and I can not thank her anoth for helping me through a very difficult time in my life.
Definitely someone I would recommend.
Thanks very much

Hanni Pennelegion was recommended to me by a friend. Hanni made me feel respected and understood. She was scrupulously clear about the pro's and con's of my choices so I could make fully informed decisions, which I am still happy with. I am grateful to have had the legal security afforded to me by Hanni's professional experience and ethically driven practice. All costs were reasonable, fully explained and agreed up front and then timed considerately.
g. i.
My grateful thanks to Mark Scanlon, for his professional, amiable, help and guidance which resulted in a better than expected outcome.

I found Barcan + Kirby are an excellent company especially Fiona Dabbel who dealt with my case extremely well, I found her to be very professional and compassionate throughout my claim for medical negligence of nerve damage(which many other solicitors would not take on as they said it is very difficult to prove) which has just been settled, I highly recommend Fiona and Barcan + Kirby and cannot thank them enough.
S. H.
Barcan & Kirby are a professional firm, my solicitor Fiona has helped me & guided me so much, not only is she a amazing solicitor but she is also a beautiful person inside & out, I would highly recommend Fiona she is very professional and on the ball.

Sharlie Sollars at the Queen Square office calmly managed a land dispute which became protracted and at times, awkward.
Sharlie stuck to the objectives in the interests of the bigger picture and demonstrated a very good balance of carrot and stick, where necessary.
The outcome was ultimately successful with satisfactory 'wins' for both parties.
We were very pleased with Sharlie's tenacity and professionalism and on a personal note, her manner and approachability.
Thanks again.

Pinja was very efficient and clear through each correspondence, she made our debt recovery stress very straightforward. I would highly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to use Barcan + Kirby again.

I have to say that I have had very little experience with the legal profession but from beginning to end was excellent during a very tough situation. They even managed to identify a "mistake" that gained me a substantial sum.
I would thoroughly recommend them.

Dealt with Sharlie Sollars re a land matter. She was thorough, careful in her explanations and took time where required, but also did not waste time with unnecessary explanation. The general level of legal fees aside, I feel she provided good value for money for an initial consultation.

Nick Howell was kind enough to give me over 30 mins of his time for no charge to advise me on my employment situation. He was thorough and patient in his work. Would recommend.

I contacted Nick over a furlough issue with my employer, I was very impressed with how he helped me, he was very professional yet straight to point, no sugar coating, just honest decent advice, which he followed up with an email containing all the information discussed and links to pages supporting the advice.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate all your help on this matter.
