Settlement Sorted

Grayson Stuckey was great. Efficient and friendly with all aspects of the support provided. We worked well together and achieved a positive outcome. Recommended.”


Ivan Naisbitt, December 2025

More than just a service

“Michael Davies has been representing me for about 35 years, and I cannot recommend him or RIAA Barker Gillette (UK) highly enough. Aside from the normal conveyancing, he is always on hand to advise and guide you through the difficult phases, offering clear advice, particularly when you can’t see the wood for the trees. Friendly, firm, professional and clear. Exactly what you need. Thank you, Michael! I also would add that all of the other staff that I have had the occasion to have dealings with are equally as professional.”

Patrick Simpson has been excellent throughout this process, guiding me swiftly and helpfully to completion.”

Molestation and occupation order

“I’ve found Pippa Marshall to be incredibly supportive, clear, and reassuring throughout a very difficult and complex situation. Her guidance has been precise, practical, and delivered with genuine care. She took the time to explain the process in detail, helped me understand the strengths and weaknesses in the case, and provided clear strategic advice that has made a huge difference to my confidence moving forward.

Pippa’s communication has been excellent — always calm, balanced, and focused on achieving the best possible outcome. She has been honest about what matters legally and has helped me stay grounded and prepared. I’m very grateful for her professionalism and the clarity she has brought to a stressful situation.

I would highly recommend Pippa Marshall to anyone needing strong, knowledgeable, and compassionate representation in family matters.”

Charlotte and James – You’ll always be famous in my house!

“I recently lost my brother unexpectedly, and dealing with everything that followed was one of the hardest experiences of my life. My early experiences with family, police, hospitals, coroners, etc, were met with cruelty and dismissal at a time when I was already overwhelmed with grief.

The first law firm I hired only made things worse and couldn’t answer my questions, offered no real support, and I was left with more questions and a big bill.

A friend of my brother’s recommended this firm, and from the moment I reached out to them, everything changed. James McMullan (a partner) and Charlotte Barbaroussis (a solicitor) treated me with genuine care, compassion, and professionalism, guiding me through every step at a time when I truly needed it. Not only were my needs met, but they were also anticipated. I learnt so much along the way, and everything was explained in layman’s terms. Their support has been empathetic and exceptional, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again.

If anyone is feeling uncertain about which firm to trust, I wholeheartedly recommend choosing them.

10/10 no notes!”

My Mother’s Will

“We had to move my mother’s will from an old solicitor to RIAA Barker Gillette. We selected them because of their reputation and also their location in Boreham Wood. The communication was excellent, they were prompt and clear and responded to any questions. They were also up front with the fees, which helped. The process was completed quickly and efficiently. I would especially like to compliment Charlotte Barbaroussis, who was excellent.”


Deborah Jefford, November 2025

Renewing my mother’s will

“Would just like to say that the whole experience was very professional, efficient and I was kept informed all the way through.”


Patricia Brooks, November 2025

Probate

“The claim for probate was handled very speedily by Charlotte. It was just a case of my filling in a form with all the relevant figures, a quick clarification on a few points, and then submission to the Probate Office. Probate was then received very quickly within about 10 days. Thank you for your efficiency.”


Nina Yakimiuk, October 2025

Changing My Will

“It was very good with precise information plus a friendly discussion. Charlotte Barbaroussis was very approachable and considerate. Definetly efficient.”
