Reviews of Barrett and Co Solicitors

J. R.

Dealing with Barrett&Co was excellent from the start. They were very swift in providing initial information and booking an initial zoom meeting. I dealt with Justin Sadler who took time to understand my situation and was clearly both knowledgeable re the situation and also honest about what I could expect. Will use again and thoroughly recommend.

M. S.

Emma Dorking has done a brilliant job in completing our property sale today. She was responsive and enthusiastic from the start when she took on the sale. She has been diligent and comprehensive in bringing the sale to a conclusion in the face of extremly tight deadlines and under pressure. I highly commend her and Barrett solicitors for this work Marci and Linda Sandels

L. S.

Fast, Professional and Efficient ! - I have used Barrett and Co Solicitors LLP based on referral. They are very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. There was no hassle from them and they spoke to me like a human being and broke down legal terminology so it was easy to understand. I would use them again and have also passed there details onto friends.

B. ..

I would without any doubt recommend Paul Wild. Paul has been amazing in recently dealing with my separation deed. Paul is very helpful and understanding. I can honestly say it’s so nice to deal with someone who genuinely cares about your situation. In my opinion Paul goes above and beyond to make sure everything goes smoothly.

Many thanks to Justin Sadler and Chris Miller for their very helpful advice in our efforts to recover outstanding professional fees. We found their clear explanation of the legal position and their suggested approach to the case both very practical and efficient.

J. N.

I have recently used Barrett and Co Solicitors for a multiple legal issues needing to be resolved and also creating a will. I found them to be very good and professional, the majority of the work being carried out by Juliette Spanner who has very knowledgeable, professional and courteous. From my experience I will be using them in the future again.

t. g.

Excellent service. I would highly recommend using Paul Wild for divorce proceedings. He is friendly and great at explaining all the wording that courts like to use . You are greeted by a wonderful receptionist who makes you feel very relaxed in what was a very stressful time. Which helped a lot. Thank you .

J. H.

I had a client who was messing my around regarding payments for work. It was awkward as I am based in Dublin. Chris & Justin provided excellent advice, great service, good value and were a pleasure to deal with. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

A.

Recently Justin Sadler give me and my fellow members of the AIEA, simple, understandable and invaluable legal advice on commercial contracts relating to the Events / Hospitality and Travel industry. It was professional and personal, even with the meeting being held online rather than in person. Thank you and I look forward to the next guidance.

M. D.

Excellent service and advice I would certainly use Barrett and Co again. Justin was very professional and knowledgable enabling me to achieve my desired outcome and cannot thank him enough. N

Very professional and extremely thoughtful. We choose to complete our Wills through Barrett and Co twice, and both times they have made it a simple and efficient service. We would highly recommend.

D. W.

Excellent and insightful guidance and advice. Extremely prompt professional and easy to engage. Thank you for the great work Justin.

L. S.

Paul was really responsive, supportive and answered all my questions in a really honest and professional way. It was a pleasure working with him and i would recommend him to anyone needing a solicitor. Thank you Paul

t. l.

Thank you Charlotte for the help and advice you gave us. The work was carried out quickly and efficiently and our meetings with you were a pleasure. I would certainly suggest Barrett and Co if asked for a recommendation.

v. k.

I recently used Barrett and Co solicitors when making my Will. I was impressed by the courteous and professional attitude by the staff toward me at all times and would definitely recommend them for any future legal matters.

W. W.

On behalf of the World Transplant Games Federation we cannot thank Jane Whitfield of Barrett and Co enough for her expertise, clarity, help and kindness with our legal documents. Jane is with us every step of the way and goes above and beyond any expectations we have. We do not hesitate to recommend.

M. S.

We came across Barrett and Co Solicitors via a free Will writing scheme. Mrs Ruparel was very professional yet friendly; the whole process was very straightforward as she explained all the steps and areas for consideration clearly. The legal support team were also very helpful in answering any queries we had.

A. T.

I had a general conveyancing query and needed a second opinion. The response was so quick and the reply was really informative with a surprising amount of detail, but delivered in plain English (no legal jargon) that even I could understand. If I could start this whole buying and selling process again I’d have gone with Barrett and Co rather than the solicitors I’ve gone with.

E. T.

During the process of repossession proceedings against my tenant I felt reassured by the open and honest advice I received from Chris Miller. I was impressed by the efficient, professional and friendly service. I can highly recommend this company.

L. H.

We can highly recommend this firm and in particular Hilary Buckle and her team. We approached them for assistance with a banking issue following a death. Hilary provided an excellent telephone consultation, followed by a letter to the bank to resolve our complaint. The advice was clear and comprehensive and also excellent value for money.

S. C.

I consulted Justin for Employement related settlement. After first meeting, half of my headache was solved. He is very professional, to the pointin his advice and he helped me in setting right mind set to solve the work related grievance. I highly recommend him.

M. M.

Excellent helpful support from Chris Miller, will not hesitate to ask again if the matter isn't resolved. Update 6 months later: with Chris Miller's further help I achieved satisfactory resolution, I am convinced if I had consulted Chris earlier an even better result would have been secured.

M. B.

During a rather acrimonious dispute with builders, we decided to consult with Justin Sadler. He was attentive to the complicated detail of the dispute and gave some sound advice as to an approach that would probably keep the case out of the courts and hopefully provide a positive result. Having followed his advice we managed to reach a solution with the builder and can now move on. Thank you Justin!

S. R.

I consulted with various lawyers regarding employment law. Justin Sadler was by far the best. He gave clear, sound advice. I felt I was in excellent hands throughout the process. I would highly recommend Justin to any friend or colleague.

L. W.

I went to Barrett and Co on the back of a recommendation as I needed some advice around employment. Justin was very good – friendly, clear, knowledgeable and efficient, meaning everything was dealt with very quickly. Thank you!

R. K.

A quality conveyance and service provided by Emma Docking. She really is our go to for all property transactions. A personal service which is of the highest quality. Raj (Keystone Trust)

M. S.

Met with Justin and Eleanor at Barrett and co for assistance with a tenancy agreement. They could not have been more helpful, provided lots of information that has set us on the right track and given us lots of reassurance that we are doing the right things. Would highly recomend them.

K. W.

It is our first time to purchase a property in UK and we are not clear about the details and trick in the conveyancing process. We are lucky to have Piers and his team, Emma and Fatima to handle our case. Like everyone who want to complete the deal before the stamp duty holiday, we keep pushing the schedule. They are very responsive and patient to our enquiry. Instead of just "close the deal", they provide very professional advice to those critical issues on the tile. While protecting our interest in the legal point of view, they facilitate the process to meet the target schedule too. Piers' team did a amazing job. Highly recommend.

L. A.

Dealt with Paul Wild and all I can say is I couldn't have asked for a better service. He helped give a clear understanding of everything in great detail and gave clear clarification of matters that I did not understand. Once again thank you and I would highly recommend this team to anyone

K. B.

Charlotte Fox was a real pleasure helping us prepare new LW&Ts for both my wife and myself. She is currently preparing LPAs for the both of us and I found dealing with her both refreshing and sympathetic regarding our requirements.

T. T.

Justin at Barrett & Co did a great job with an employment matter - providing friendly and useful advice quickly and efficiently at a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend him should you need help.

S. F.

Paul Wild is the best solicitor you can wish for. I benefited from his crucial law experience and wisdom. Excellent customer service.

J. L.

W. F.

Had exceptional service from Imran during our house purchase. He kept us well informed throughout the process with the assistance of Maxine and explained things clearly. Imran was very efficient and always available to answer any queries we had.

a. k.

I had a very delicate but deeply personal matter that I needed professional legal help with.in short it involved a matter of my father's will,inheritance and money owed to me from a sibling.After much research I contacted Justin at Barrett and co.After an hours consultation with him and Hilary Buckle I gained the confidence to take further steps.it was in their mannerism and approach and they even gave me a written quote detailing exactly what stage they would charge me for ,and even this quote was much lower than other specialst solicitors .They were so considerate with me and their reputation so high that my sister instantly gave me large sum of money owed to me and as a bonus all siblings have begun mending our relationship.

R. S.

I contacted Barrett and Co to get my Will prepared. Charlotte Fox is the Solicitor that dealt with it. My meeting at there offices with Charlotte and her Trainee was exceptionally smooth and reassuring. I found Charlotte very understanding and approachable. I am delighted with her service and the firm's ethos. Will recommend confidently to my friends and to myself for any legal or statutory matter.

b. b.

Good firm as I used them for debt collection of significant six-figure sum. Well worth the money paid as it was a fraction of the amount owed. Justin Sadler handled the case for me. You get what you pay for.

K. B.

Thank you to Chris Miller sorting out the payment issue with advertising company but decision not gone my way in the Court. Chris done everything he can and I will be using this firm for my future assistance if needed. Thank you again Chris.

D. R.

T. C.

Use for commercial property covering simple contracts to more complicated issues. Advice is prompt and accurate. Just as importantly, it is also succinct and clear which can be hard in the complex world of law! Recommended.

M. K.

Barrett and Co handled my divorce and other related matters between July 2019 and May 2021. I felt well-supported throughout my case, and was treated with the utmost empathy and understanding through a difficult time. Aadil Khan managed my case during the last few months and was instrumental in securing a fair outcome for me. I was provided with timely, professional and targeted guidance, which helped me navigate a complex case. Thanks for all your support!

R. B.

The team (Richard, Imran, Maxine) handled the conveyancing process smoothly keeping me aware of developments promptly. No faults to find. Service was excellent.

K. A.

Used these guys when we bought our house as previous firm we used was useless..Imran was assigned to deal with us and I can happily say the level of professionalism we got from him and Barrett and Co was amazing..Imran kept us up to date with every little minor detail and step of the way..recently I had to get in touch with Imran for some advice after the sale and he was more than happy to go out of his way to help me out..i will defiantly be recommending Barrett and Co as well as Imran to any one i know buying a property

E. C.

I was very impressed with the information that Jane Whitfield provided and the questions that I enquired about were precise and professionally answered. In the future, I will have no hesitation in asking for her assistance.

S. K.

In February 2020 my sister contacted Barrett’s to enquire about a power of attorney on behalf of our mother who was in the Royal Berks after a bad fall. She was later transferred to Wokingham Hospital and one of their solicitors Vanessa Ruparel came out to explain what would be involved, talking to mum directly as much as possible (although she was ninety seven, she was still sharp though a little hard of hearing). When unfortunately mum died about three weeks later, we decided to engage Barrett’s to deal with mum’s estate. In early March we met up with Vanessa to discuss the various stages of the estate and an estimated range of their costs (the final bill was well within it). Throughout a very trying 2020 & 2021, Vanessa kept us totally informed of all the stages involved throughout this period, both by email and on the phone. As well as doing the legal legwork, she also arranged for the house and garden to be tidied up prior to its sale, later on in 2020 - the conveyancing work of which was undertaken by Alan Warnes, another Barrett’s solicitor. All in all, a very clear and approachable firm of solicitors. I should also like to mention the helpful assistance throughout of Rebecca Pykett, Emma Docking, Rebecca Rai, Piers Galton-Becque and Megan Aedy.

C. 9. E. M. L.

We had our wills produced by Charlotte at the Reading Barrett & Co, I can’t thank her enough for all her help! This was very daunting and new to us, as first time parents we wanted to get things in place for our son Incase of anything was to happen. Obviously with covid, we had a zoom call with Charlotte and she was so helpful, answering all the questions we had, but also asking questions we hadn’t even thought about! Charlotte made the whole process very smooth and easy. Thank you so much !!

J.

I reached out to Barrett and Co to guide me through my settlement agreement . I was assigned Justin Sadler who did an amazing job. Very professionals and very straight forward. Was happy to answer any questions and responded quickly. Would Highly recommend!

B. B.

P. A.

k. b.

Based on my experience I would have no hesitation to recommend Barrett and Co to any friend or family member in need of legal services. Further, any legal service is only as good as the people within it and the people at Barrett and Co are brilliant. They are helpful, communicative, understanding and patient. They explain the options and when legal language is required and necessary they are willing to sit down and explain what it mean in plain english. Great people and a Great service,

I. A.

We used Barrett & Co conveyancing services to buy our first house and they made the process really easy for us, and we completed within the period of time we were hoping for from the start. Piers and Emma were very nice and helpful, and we thoroughly recommend them.

A. M.

My wife and I have greatly benefited from the legal advice and service received from Barrett and Co Solicitors with respect to an on-going dispute we had with our wedding service suppliers. We worked closely with Justin Sadler, who was friendly and personable, and was generous with his time in order to understand the background of our dispute and what we wanted to achieve. Justin was able to quickly identify the principles on which our dispute could be resolved, and also provided an education like approach to bring us up to speed on our rights and laws that exisit to protect us as consumers. What we were most grateful for was Justin's experience in cases like ours, which allowed us to prepare for our hearing. We feel his ethos is to keep things simple and clear, and above all, realistic. This helped managed our expectations, realise where to direct our focus, and what our end goal should be. He was also invalueable in other matters such as making us aware of the process leading up to the hearing; what to prepare, when to send, and things to keep on top off. This was so helpful, as in our case with the Courts there were multiple documents to prepare, several deadlines we had to meet, and processes to follow through with. I am sure we would have struggled greatly had we not had his advice. We are very likely to return to Justin for more advice in the future. We felt we were in good hands, receiving up to date advice, clear & simple to understand, and extremley good value for the time he gave us. In addition to Justin, we also like to extend our thanks to Ella DAlton who was very pleasant to work with. She worked quickly to arrange our meetings with Justin, and she was effective in ensuring all messages back and fourth were passed on, and always followed up with an update/response. We are very grateful to both Justin Sadler and Ella DAlton for their help. We would highly recommend them, and Barett and Co Solictors for your legal matters.

G. S.

Justin Sadler provided an excellent service in relation to an employment matter. His clear and concise guidance provided me all the necessary assurance and support to conclude the matter. The rest of the team at Barrett's, where also very professional and highly responsive in the short time I had available to reach a conclusion. Barrett's certainly instilled a strong sense of trust and would definitely be my first choice for any future legal matters.

K. S.

We used Barrett & Co re conveyancing for the purchase of our new home. Richard Ince and his team, Rebecca P and Emma D were brilliant from start to finish. They were patient and clear in their explanations throughout, and ensured that all our queries were addressed, large or small........ A professional and friendly service - Thank you!

J.

Great mirror will produced by Ms Spanner, it was so easy to do and she kept us updated at all times. We used the MS Trust special promotion and was well worth it. I would highly recommend Barrett & Co.

A.

Barrett & Co came highly recommended through professional contacts. All the Barrett's staff we dealt with were polite and efficient. Chris Miller, who acted on our behalf, was polite, and professional, and his advice was sensible. We would recommend Barrett & Co.

l.

As a client of Barrett and Co LLP for many years, I recently had the pleasure of liaising with a Barrett and Co legal executive, Ms Juliette Spanner, with whom I had not previously encountered face to face, or even by telephone. I have in recent years lost my wife, and this was the first time I was dealing with a legal matter that I would normally have discussed with my wife of many years. During our first conversation by phone, I quickly realised that I had no need to 'go it alone' as Juliette immediately grasped my requirements and personal circumstances, and imbued me with complete confidence in the eventual outcome. From the outset, her subsequent written communication with me was of the highest order, timely and responsive to any queries I brought up, whilst her personal standard of verbal communication by telephone in the present Covid circumstances was exemplary. I was, as I have come to expect over the years in my dealings with Barrett and Co, totally satisfied with every aspect of my business dealings with Juliette. I have every confidence that the level of interest, professional standards and patience she demonstrated will continue to enhance the reputation of Barrett and Co. in her dealings with future clients. I unreservedly recommend both the firm and Juliette as a very reassuring and professionally competent duo. I commend them both, and wish them well in the uncertain times in which we live.

C. H.

In the run up to completion, Emma and her colleagues were taking very good care of us. Despite many challenges throughout the day, including a tricky chain + backlog in banking transactions, Emma was always on hand with a friendly word and answering our queries quickly and professionally etc.

A. R.

We worked with Emma Docking to sell and buy properties recently. In spite of the hugely complicated process (our properties are somewhat unusual), we had consistent and clear communication from Emma and Berrett and co throughout. They were very responsive and kept us up to date. Would recommend!

G. O.

Barrett and co have been amazing dealing with probate for my late great auntie... A big thankyou to Charlotte for making thing easier at such a sad time for me and my family... I would 100 percent recommend using Barrett and co and will be using there team in the near future...

J. B.

I have recently used Barrett & Co to assist me with my divorce and can only say good words about the experience. Paul Wild especially not only provided reassuring advice, but his professionalism (and indeed, that of everyone at Barrett & Co) made me feel supported throughout the whole process, and left me with the feeling that he genuinely cared about my situation. The level of dedication displayed by not only Paul but also Richard Ince in the conveyancing team was top notch, in particular when turning work around within tight timescales, and keeping me appraised throughout so nothing came as a surprise. I will definitely use Barrett & Co for any legal needs in the future - very highly recommended!

V. S.

I was very happy indeed with the service I received: prompt, professional and sound advice, at a reasonable price. The resulting output has been both useful and specifically tailored to my needs. The practice was approachable and efficient; highly recommended.

A. B.

I am currently being made redundant, and wanted some professional advice on the process I was being subjected to by my employer. From initial engagement through the one hour telephone advice session I found Barrett and Co to be very professional and knowledgeable, I would happily recommend them and will use them again myself as my situation develops.

G. L.

I used Barrett and Co for my will via the Will Aid scheme. They were very professional, efficient and friendly. They took time to explain things simply and effectively - offering advice on the implications of different scenarios and ensuring I 'future proofed' my will. Very pleased with the service all round. Charlotte Fox was excellent.

I. M.

Outstanding! I was seeking advice prior to an employment Tribunal. The advice was holistic, objective and delivered with pure integrity. The 1-hour consultation gave me the confidence to proceed and do it with pride. I went into the Tribunal alone and was against an employer who arrived in force- I was outnumbered 4:1- and won! Not only was the advice immaculate and precisely on point , the humble and "real" element to our interaction was warming and very supportive. Thank you!

L.

Justin Sadler did an outstanding job, providing excellent support and advice. Very professional and willing to guide you. He always replied to my emails and phone calls immediately. An amazing solicitor - definitely recommend him!

J. E.

Upon needing some much needed employment related legal advice I was very lucky to come across Barrett and Co. The whole process was fluid, simple, yet professional right through from my initial enquiry to leaving the office happy and eased of mind. I would highly recommend Barrett and Co to anyone that requires legal advice of any nature; my particular case, whilst not overly complicated, regardless left me wanting reassurance and security. A quick call, appointment booking, and a 1 hour meeting with Justin later provided me with both.

N. S.

Barrett & Co come highly recommended. I recently worked with Alan Warnes on a property sale that was very complicated due to changes in the lease, and dealing with difficult and lengthy queries from the buyer's solicitors, and Alan guided me expertly through the process. His tenacity, patience, legal expertise and good humour were greatly appreciated. I have used Barrett & Co's services for previous property purchases and sales, for declarations of trust, and one of the partners also became executor to my parent's estate several years ago. They are very professional, and also warm, friendly solicitors to work with. I would not hesitate to engage them again if the need arises.

D. N.

I have used Barrett & Co on several occasions and had excellent service from them. Richard Ince and his team have just completed the purchase of a house for myself, they were always on top of any issues and concerns from myself and the seller's solicitors and brought to my attention any points that they had concerns about. They could always be contacted and sent regular updates. I would definitely use them again

N. C.

I found Barrett & Co via a search on Will Aid 2019 and was lucky enough to get an appointment with Vanessa Ruparel, one of the Solicitors. The whole process of getting our wills done was very smooth and professional. Service was of high quality and very friendly. I would certainly recommend Barrett & Co. Many thanks Vannessa :)

l. j.

After needing some advice regarding an employment tribunal we had a zoom meeting with Justin Sadler He made us feel tremendous relaxed, explained everything we had asked in easy to understand terms, offered further guidance and we felt completely confident to move forward within the tribunal process. We would have no doubts in recommending him and will definately be keeping his contact details should we need any help in the future

A. T.

We used Barrett and Co for probate and conveyancing. Jane, Emma and Piers were absolutely outstanding in their help with these matters. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Not having spoken with Solicitors for many years we viewed our visit to Barrett and Co. with some trepidation but were completely put as ease by both Charlotte's with the advice and understanding given by them when requiring advice on changing our Wills and other associated matters. These matters were discussed thoroughly with ourselves throughout and completed very promptly. We would certainly recommend their services and have no hesitation in using them again, should the need arise.

I. W.

Dealt with Chris Miller who was fantastic from the start. Clear assessment of the issues and risks with great guidance and proactive communications. Chris is a very valuable asset and I would recommend him fully. The only issue I had was with the bill which was not clear and had to be adjusted. We won the case with costs awarded but it still cost us the best part of £1400, not sure how that works....

Vanessa drew up my will after a video consultation (due to Covid 19) and then I got it signed and witnessed in the office car park maintaining social distancing. My will was very straightforward but Vanessa ensured that all necessary areas were considered and addressed. I received a very professional, courteous service and I would certainly use Barrett and Co again.

P. H.

I would definitely recommend Barrett and co-solicitors to anyone! I recently engaged Charlotte Fox to get a will put together and I must say that Charlotte made it an fast, effortless and painless process for me.. pricing was very competitive and I received regular communication and some great advice from her that ensured the will represented exactly what I needed. I have used other solicitors in Caversham in the past and I must say my experience with Barrett and co has been the best by far.

P. B.

Vanessa Ruparel helped me to write my will after I re-married. She also sorted out my uncle's probate, which was more complicated than we anticipated. I have used Barrett & Co before many years ago when I divorced, so I didn't hesitate to use them again. They always give a quote up front for their work and if there are any problems and costs change they inform you and get your approval. I would never hesitate to recommended them (and I have done so). Thank you for all your help.

R. E.

Emma Docking and the team provided an excellent conveyancing service, allowing us to complete on a sale and purchase before the stamp duty increase. Emma was at all times very communicative and responded to emails and phone calls extremely quickly, which was fantastic and especially appreciated during a very busy time for solicitors.

R. P.

Barrett and Co has been our family solicitors for over 20 years for various legal matters, including, immigration, purchasing properties, tenancy disputes, wills and recently employment related matters. This includes our extended family too. We would without any hesitation recommend Barrett and Co and in particular, Justin Sadler and his team for legal matters. Very helpful team of solicitors, knowledgable, friendly and understanding. On every occasion, from the initial contact to the resolution, it’s always a pleasure to work with them and no complaints at all. Easy to contact, updates where needed and the charges are well explained and reasonable too. Even though we live in Ascot, we find it easy to do most of the paperwork remotely and only visit the branch when it’s absolutely necessary. Thanks again and a very happy client.

A. J.

When I needed fast and proficient advice for my redundancy package. I contacted Barrett and Co. I was not disappointed. I was seen the same day, just 2 hours after making a call to them. I was treated well and felt confident in their ability to handle my case. They fought for my rights and ensured I was given what I was due which was actually more than I was offered by my company (many thanks Mr Sadler). I can fully recommend this solicitors and I will be using them again in the future should I need any legal advice. Would recommend strongly.

B. M.

Extremely satisfied with the service. A protracted and complex case made bearable by the very professional and caring approach. The firm also took great care to avoid costs spiraling out of control. I would recommend Barrett & Co to anyone who asked.

A. A.

Barrett & Co have been amazing from the start. Aadil Khan and his team have worked brilliantly on my divorce and child arrangement order. The communication has been consistent with Aadil Khan and his team. I truly can not thank you guys enough for all the hard work and the support you've given me over the year and half. I highly recommend Aadil Khan at Barrett & Co .

A. R.

We had struggled with a dispute with an ex landlord for over a year. Chris Miller managed to obtain a favourable resolution within a few months despite the ex landlord being very uncooperative. Highly recommended

K. H.

Sometime ago I used Barrett and Co to create a will using Will Aid and it was a friendly and simple process. I have recently been made redundant so I went for an hours fixed fee meeting to discuss my settlement agreement, again this was a very informative meeting and helped me understand the process and provide me with useful questions to ask.

O.

Thanking Justin Sadler and Chris Miller for being so welcoming, understanding, supportive, very dedicated to our situation. They are very professional and a very committed legal team! Also the receptionists were always welcoming and kind. I would highly recommend Barrett and Co Solicitors in the first instance!

M. S.

Through the process of buying our home Emma was always professional, efficient and caring. She willingly kept us informed of proceedings and did all she could to help and speed things up. Thank you Emma

B. G.

I have been getting support from Barrett and Co Solicitors since past few years. Staff are very helpful, polite and professional. Recently, I went to their office for signature verification/witness and the service was great and timely.

D. E.

I would like to thank Richard Innes and his team Rebecca and Emma for their care and attention on the recent sale of my property and the extremely swift completion on my new home. Throughout the process all my questions and concerns were answered giving me confidence that everything was in hand My process started with the sale of my property in January with an anticipated completion date of 31st March. Due to delays with my buyers mortgage this in fact happened on 28th April On the other hand I only instructed them on the purchase of my new property mid March. Luckily it was vacant possession and we completed on 30th April which was absolutely fantastic I would highly recommend Richard and his team

t. h.

Justin Sadler supported me through the process of agreeing a compromise / settlement agreement with my employer. He was very understanding both of my position and of what the legal position was. He asked lots of questions to make sure he understood the fact pattern and then put my case forward to get the best deal possible. I was very happy with the overall outcome and the significantly increased offer we received from the employer. I would happily use Justin again and would recommend the use of him and his team.

'I had no prior knowledge of this firm, until I telephoned the office based on Google reviews and with only a few days left prior to the case unfolding, the pressure was really on!! The approach of every staff member was gentle, caring and unusually courteous. I was terrified at the prospect of my chances, especially as the other side had considerable experience in court. Both Justin Sadler and Chris Miller were warm, sympathetic, calm and completely unperturbed; they immediately suggested a way forward and then recommended their choice of Counsel. I had my doubts and was like a rabbit in headlights; Chris carefully guided me through the process and kept me calm throughout. The result was an outright victory. An amazing result, delivered with care, attention and I was charged less than the amount of work actually delivered! A highly unusual firm of solicitors. Huge thanks to Chris/Justin.

N. C.

Honestly, I cannot begin to describe how fantastic, reliable, dependable, ethical, professional and superb value for money Barrett & Co are - and I am not normally one to gush to this extent, particularly about legal stuff! We recently had to sort out some very complex paperwork to set up a Trust Fund. Every other solicitor quoted us an extortionate rate, but had no guidance to give us. Instead, at Barrett & Co, we have been taken by the hand and walked gently through this complex maze at a quarter of the price the other solicitors were charging. Nothing has been too much trouble for them and they don't charge extra every time they sneeze, which is frankly remarkable! I was recommended Barrett & Co; I have now recommended them twice, and everyone I have spoken to has had a great experience of working with them. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I will be using them for whatever legal challenges come my way in the future . . . and my husband will agree, that I am not always easy to please!!

j. o.

I recently required the support of a Solicitor in an employment matter - the support and advice I received from Justin Sadler was professional, incredibly timely, detailed and importantly pragmatic. This pragmatism has made a potentially stressful situation simple and has supported a quick and very satisfactory solution . I would highly recommend Justin !

s. g.

I've dealt with many solicitors in the past 10 years in various areas of law and I must say Barrett come 1st place for me. Great care and attention. **Meant to have mentioned Charlotte Fox was the lady that took care of my affairs.

f.

I found Barrett and Co to be extremely helpful during a very stressful time. Paul and his trainee Nicholas were always quick to answer any questions I had and never failed to reassure me. I am glad I put my trust in them and would wholeheartedly recommend their services to others.

W. U.

We are an International Sports Federation and needed assistance with getting our Federation incorporated as a Company with Limited Liability. We were walked through the whole process with incredible professionalism but also a lot of understanding and flexibility in the various services required. Jane Whitfield did a wonderful "hand-holding" exercise and once we had completed our incorporation she again walked us through the whole process of registering as a Charity. This process was also completed successfully. As the person that worked very closely with Barrett Co and Jane in particular, I can testify not only to the professionalism, but also the friendly and efficient way in which the whole process was dealt with until completion. We are looking to walk a long road with this company as we deal with further legislative requirements.

F. S.

Absolutely first class support and service. Mr.Wild who has been not only a great support but also a friend. He fought my corner and was understanding of my exceptional circumstances and the whole team have been amazing. The receptionist is first class everytime, very attentive when I went to the offices and knew who I was when I rang, made me feel supported st every step. Highly recommend this service

S. A.

Barrett and Co Solicitors are fantastic. As a property seller I faced few hurdles in process of property exchange and contracts but Mr. Imran Choudhary was very helpful in informing me about all the steps we needed to make and always prompt and professional in dealing with communications. Brilliant service, friendly, professional and patient all the way. Would certainly recommend!

Z. I.

I recently used Paul Wild's service to help me get through my divorce. Paul and the team at Barrett & Co were amazing, professional and made the process very simple. Thank you all for your help over the past 2 years.

B. G.

I have used Barret & co for a while and they are very professional (Emma & Martin) and to dealt with matters of complex and resolve them quickly and all transactions completed on time, Appreciate their work and Knowledge.

M. W.

I took one week short of a year to complete the purchase of the property, mostly down to the seller and their complications, service from Barrett & Co was great. Emma in particular was a fantastic communicator and a credit to the company

K. S.

I consulted Justin Sadler, of Barrett & Co, in respect of an Employment Law matter. I found he had an excellent knowledge of the subject area; and the outcome achieved, was more or less as he had indicated. I would therefore have no hesitation in highly recommending him. In addition, I found him to be most personable and it is so much easier to do business with someone you like as well as respecting their expertise.

K. D.

Highly recommended solicitors. Our experience of using Barrett and Co has been very positive, responses have always been on time and informative. We won't hesitate to use again should we need to.

B. H.

I first used Barrett & Co over 15 years ago. Recently, my company had occasion to use them for two different matters - a breach of contract dispute and for due diligence in an asset purchase agreement. In both cases, we received excellent, prompt advice from the solicitors involved. I can recommend Barrett & Co. without reservation.

M. M.

Emma is great! She is patient and responsive. I really feel like she had been on my side fighting for our benefits and giving us comfort and encouragement when issues arose. She has been doing a very good job! Barrette and Co is professional and well-established! Thumbs up!

L. W.

The service from start to finish was thorough and professional in spite of Covid restrictions with zoom calls and personal visits from two solicitors each time.They were very careful to make sure my sister wishes were clear and took time to explain all the possible repercussions to her.

D. G.

Like many people I only have rare occasions to visit a solicitor, which can be daunting due to preconceptions and the unforeseen nature of the visit. However, when I spoke with Justin Sadler on an employment issue he was very quick to gauge what my requirements were and was able to adjust his explanation of legal documents to a level I was comfortable with. His quick grasp of the situation and legal knowledge meant that in the limited time we had he could concentrate on the pertinent areas and I came away with a much improved understanding of the issue. I was also very grateful to Justin for putting some real world context around the situation. This really helped tie the legal situation to the reality along with some practical advice that not only gave me understanding of how flexible the process was but also kept potential costs to a minimum. I would recommend Barrett and Co for their practical approach and openness in their dealings. They are definitely there to support you as their client rather than just do the legal bit.

P. S.

Chris Mahon. Nearly two years ago I found myself searching web sites and reviews to find a solicitor for my pending divorce action. I met with Paul Wild at Barrett & Co and was instantly reassured, relaxed and confident. In the next one and a half years Paul Wild and his team demonstrated a very high level of legal knowledge and a strong ability to negotiate at all levels which has saved me a considerable sum of money. Paul also has this ability to give reassuring sound advice on all relating matters which is a great help when family are involved and when I was pulling my hair out at the roots at times. So if you’re doing the same that I was nearly two years ago I would highly recommend you contact Paul Wild.

W. J.

Fantastic service! Charlotte Fox at Barrett's walked us through creating our first Will and made it an incredibly simple process. She was patient and clear on everything, and made what could otherwise have been difficult to consider situations and subsequent decisions easy to face. We would highly recommend!

G. D.

Used Barrett and Co extensively with my business and recently for a personal matter, excellent service on all occasions, you only get what you pay for, would have no hesitation in recommending their services. A big thank you to Vanessa for all her advice and assistance.

T. B.

I found Justin Sadler and his support team very knowledgeable, and they supported us very professionally through our case. They not only had the right legal and procedural knowledge but also the practical experience of handling cases to guide us through a difficult process. Well recommended.

D. M.

Paul Wild and his team at Barrett & Co have guided us through a complex family issue in a very professional manner managing expectations and always keeping us informed . I would have no problem recommending Paul if you need services of a solicitor regarding family law.

R. S.

I cannot rate this company highly enough. We (my wife and I) had undertaken to use an Equity Release company to raise funds for ourselves in our advancing years. We used Barrett & Co. as our legal representatives for this journey. It was not as a smooth and trouble free project, as the Equity release company would have had us believe. If it had not been for Barrett & Co, the whole process would have been stalled and wrapped in chaos. We are very grateful for the trouble and patience shown, and would recommend them for the "premium" company they are. Mr & Mrs R. Swan.

S. B.

I had a 60min consultation about an issue that I have with a tradesman (decorator) who did a rubbish job at my house. The advice from Justin and Eleanor were really helpful and reassuring. In a friendly atmosphere, they gave me a comprehensive explanation about the different ways I should deal with such issue and what I would expect in each case. highly recommended.

R. C.

Barrett and Co has been our family solicitors since 1999. Our main contact has always been Justin Sadler. Then through Justin, we have worked with other members of the organisation. I have used Barrett and Co for divorce property settlement, purchase of two properties, tenancy case, two employment related cases and then my will. Very recently we had another tenancy problem and approached Justin for his advice. After initial discussions Justin introduced us to Chris Miller who took over the case proceedings resulting an eviction. In most cases, we went to Barrett and Co with little knowledge or no knowledge of our legal standing. They always gave us a clear picture of what steps we should take to get the result what we plan to achieve at the outset. This includes what their fees could be too. I am certain that I am right, without a shadow of a doubt, that we will always rely on Barrett & Co. to represent us on our legal matters. Rachel Candappa - Sunbury-on-Thames

A. P.

There are so many positive things I would like to say about Barret & Co. For me to do that would take too long. I will say, however, that Barrett & Co provided a first class service that resulted in a very positive & successful outcome . The service we received was akin to the service you would expect from a large city solicitor. If you are looking for a professional efficient multi discipline solicitor ,then I strongly recommend that you look no further. Thank you Barrett & Co ,with a special thank you to Jane Whitfield, for all that you have done for us & for taking away all the worry.

J. B.

Once again I’ve needed to call on Justin Sandler professional advice and support relating to an employment dispute in recent weeks . Having previously used Barrett and Co for redundancy settlement, and some property boundary challenges stretching back over 14 years. Highly recommend for friendly and competitive charged advice and support. Justin gets to grips with the issues quickly, and delivers a realistic timely resolution !

D. N.

I would not hesitate to use Barrett and Co Solicitors LLP again in the future. Justin Sadler has been more than helpful, very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

C. D. R.

My experience with Barrett and Co Solicitors LLP has been very good, easy to contact, very clear and transparent and the most important flexible.

G. S.

Alan Warnes dealt with the sale of my father's house after my father died last year. He was sensitive to the fact that my brother and I had lost our father and dealt with everything brilliantly. We had complete confidence in the work Barrett & Co did for us and it was great for my brother and I to have positive dealings with a law firm. Long may it continue!

S. G.

Used this firm for purchasing our house. Alan and his team were amazing, they kept us up to date throughout the process. They were very reliable and efficient. We were a bit overwhelmed with the whole process of buying a house to begin with, but they definitely managed our expectations and always informed us of what was happening and what we still had to do to keep the process going smoothly. Would use this firm again in the future.

J. B.

Excellent service. Barrett and Co are a member of the Lawyers for Business scheme which offer a free half hour consultation to small and medium size businesses. I received key information about the forthcoming GDPR and details of the important aspects to focus on. Reassuring and informative.

F. L.

Richard and his team (Maxine) were really helpful and efficient in dealing with the purchase of my new home. It was very comforting listening to Richard's calm voice over the phone. He made sure that everything was in place before exchange and completion. Would highly recommend this firm!

P. S.

As I suppose like most people, my legal requirements have mainly revolved around house purchases and Will writing. Therefore when out of the blue I needed legally binding contractual advice I turned to Justin Saddler at Barrett & Co who made everything simple and understandable. Whats more he was able to add a little humour to the situation to make the process almost enjoyable.

O. C.

Great service and brilliant advice, value for money. Justin Sadler help me with employment law issues. Justin was very supportive and really help me understand a difficult situation. I would highly recommend him & Barrett & Co.

C. L.

When informed by your employer that your employment contract is to be terminated because of a restructuring and not through any fault of one’s own – and probably not knowing what to do or who to turn to - it’s a lonely, disorientating, and unsettling place to be - as anyone in a similar position reading this will fully understand. When this happened to me, I didn’t know who to turn to. But a colleague recommended Barrett and Co, and so I checked out the website and was impressed with what I read about Justin Sadler and his experience. Justin and his assistant were quick to respond to my inquiry, and a consultation call was set up which was extremely useful. Justin quickly grasped my situation and was able to provide me with sensible and pragmatic legal advice as well as a tactical approach on how to proceed, and very importantly - advice on how to best channel my feelings. I had a legal stalwart in my corner. In short, we achieved as good an outcome as was possible in the circumstances and I am very grateful to Justin for all his help and advice. If you need employment related legal advice - look no further than contacting Justin Sadler at Barrett and Co.

R. S.

Chris Miller helped me challenge my CCJ case and got the judgement set aside. I am very satisfied with Chris professional and pragmatic approach to managing the case and would recommend Chris for anyone with similar requirements.

A. M.

Paul Wild helped me with an employment related matter. I found Paul to be very helpful and professional. He explained everything clearly and simply which was exactly what I needed. I would not hesitate to use Paul’s services again.

J.

Justin provided me with legal council on behalf of Barrett and Co. I would highly recommend the initial consultation, as this helped outline the matter and provide me with possible options. Justin is personable, clear and concise and I would definitely recommend his services.

D. D.

Seperation and divorce is indeed a painful experience for most people, and when I was fronted with both it was indeed a frightening thought.I got in touch with Barret and Co and made contact with Paul Wild.Within minutes of meeting Paul he was able to put my mind at ease and gave me great confidence in going forward with things.Paul was thoughtful and considerate and so very professional.I cant recommend his services enough if you are going through the experience of a separation or a divorce. Thank you so much Paul for your support and hard work you did for me.

C. V.

I had Justin Sadler work with me, giving excellent advice and general support with a very difficult, complex case against an ex-business partner. Happy to say that I got a full settlement before going to court, as with that advice, I was in a very strong, empowered position to emphatically 'win' my case without incurring additional court costs!

F. M.

Justin Sadler and the team at Barrett and Co were as always very helpful in the employment advice they gave and helped to resolve our issues smoothly and effectively. Always accessible , even over the Holiday period at the end of the year, we felt fully supported. I have used Barretts on a number of ocassions for a variety of different matters and have always been impressed.

G. D.

I totally recommend this firm of Solicitors. I booked the £95 fixed fee consultation and got two solicitors for the price of one in the meeting. Justin and Eleanor were brilliantly helpful with both guidance and advice. I left with the feeling of knowing what to do in regard to the issue - thanks to you both.

A. S.

I highly recommend Barrett and Co Solicitors. I was helped by Paul Wild who was knowledgeable, professional and easy to talk to. I received a very prompt and thorough service.

R. B.

Justin is a very nice man, he is very interested in what you have to say. Helpful and always responsive to any questions and will reply back was very happy with all he has helped me with Roger Buller

O. E.

Would like to place on record my thanks to Chris Miller who worked on our case. Great support and hard work to ensure we came out with a positive outcome. Would not hesitate to contact or recommend Chris, Justin and team to help with any future cases. Thanks again, Joe

A. L.

We contacted Barrett & Co to get advice on Wills and Power of Attorneys. Our primary contact was Juliette who was approachable and professional throughout the process. She gave advice based upon our particular circumstances and not just generic feedback. I would highly recommend Juliette and Barrett & Co.
