“RIAA Barker Gillette has been very professional throughout my process and was very friendly. They not only helped but provided valuable guidance and explained everything to the smallest detail. They have been very patient and understanding.”

“I contacted RIAA Barker Gillette about writing a will.  During the whole deal with them I found them to be professional, full of patience for my questions, and explain in a clear and understandable way in this area.  They understood the special situation I was in and solved the problem to my satisfaction.  I recommend them to anyone who needs help with inheritance matters.”

“Fortunately I don’t have to use Employment Solicitors that often but having dealt with Karen before I immediately called her when a problem arose.  As expected, she listened intently and helped me resolve a very stressful issue with a minimum of fuss, often taking the lead when dealing with the ex-employee to lower the stress levels that she knew it would cause—all in all an open efficient and professional service from start to finish.”

“We first began to use your services back in June 2022 when selling our house and buying another. Our moving saga unfortunately lasted 10 months, and had it not been for Martin and his team, we would not have gotten through it. Martin and Ann were always at the end of the phone to reassure us and sort out our many, many problems that we had incurred. Martin especially was our rock and his dedication to getting our move done surpassed anything we would have expected. You are an amazing Solicitor with the ‘personal touch’ which is very rare these days.”
