C Smith, March 2025

“As executor of a will it was a relief for a solicitor to act on my behalf as though no disputes it was still a lengthy and complex process. It was dealt with mostly by Charlotte B. who kept me informed at all times. She explained the process clearly and was able to answer any questions I had. She responded to any queries in a timely fashion.”


Marc, March 2025

“RIAA Barker Gillette were engaged to handle a real estate transaction with unusual circumstances. As a non-UK resident unfamiliar with English conveyancing procedures, I felt completely satisfied with the depth of the information and explanations provided, with the creative solution orientated approach to the issues which arose, with the prompt response time and availability of counsel, and with the very efficient compiling of the documentation and the conduct of the completion. Highly professional service all round. I would have no hesitation in recommending this firm.”


Leigh, March 2025

“Instructed Martin on my first property purchase. He was a delight to work with, kept me informed and updated regularly. It was an incredibly smooth and quick process. Couldn’t be happier.”


Ms Brownell, March 2025

“Patrick was amazing from start to finish. He made the process so easy, and explained each step in detail ahead of time so I’d understand what would happen and when. He was incredibly organized and noted every detail, calling out things that I might want to think about in regards to my redundancy terms. When it came time to sign the agreement, Patrick took care of everything and communicated directly with my employer. Very pleased!”


Caroline Rice, February 2025

Charlotte was very thorough, kind, and patient with my mum. She explained everything brilliantly and has a lovely manner. She was efficient and had excellent communication skills.”


Mikaela, February 2025

“Martin was brilliant – so professional and personable. He clearly has a lot of expertise, and we always felt were in safe hands. He’s always available to speak on the phone, and is incredibly patient and reassuring. He worked efficiently and quickly to get our sale done in a few months, including over the Christmas/New Year period. Would highly recommend using Martin, and have already referred him to my friends.”





Annette, February 2025

“We contacted RIAA Barker Gillette to get our wills arranged. Herman was professional & helpful with all aspects of the process. He explained everything clearly, notified in writing everything we discussed & answered the many questions we had in a timely manner.”
