“I highly recommend James McMullan and his team. They all did a fantastic job with helping me through a particularly difficult family situation. They are extremely professional, caring, and experts in their field.”

Probate and contentious probate



Ms K, November 2024

“I was recently made redundant, and my company had handled some of the process quite poorly. Patrick came recommended by a friend who had used him during her own redundancy, and I can now wholeheartedly recommend him myself.

His initial consultation was thorough and helpful and clear. He was practical, realistic, and detailed in advising me of likely outcomes. When my former company’s tactics were less than pleasant during the exit negotiations, Patrick was persistent and professional. Even when I thought all hope was lost he still managed to get me a better deal and get amendments to the settlement agreement that ensure I was protected going forward.

He was quick to reply, a great advocate for me and my case, as well as being personable and kind during a time when I was extremely anxious and my self esteem was at an all time low.

I am very grateful to him for his hard work and would have recommended his services even if the outcome had not improved.”

Employment


Sean Greathead, October 2024

Karen Cole has been superb in supporting us in dealing with some complex legal challenges. Her advice and guidance is timely, well communicated and provides direction on resolving the situations on hand. I would highly recommend Karen and the RIAABG team.”


Jonny Grossman, October 2024

“Martin was everything I would expect a top solicitor to be. He was knowledgeable, responsive, supportive, calm, and overall an excellent professional to work with. I would use Martin and RIAA Barker Gillette again without hesitation. Sharon is also an amazing member of the team that complimented Martin and made the conveyancing experience even easier.”



Tom Mulligan, September 2024

“Charlotte and James did a very professional job, replied promptly to emails, usually within an hour, and were available to meet when necessary. Key though is their specific experience in these areas [LPA, Probate and Wills].”

Wills, tax and trusts




David Levey, August 2024

“I have been in business for 40 years, and I have dealt with a number of law firms in the UK and USA. Without a doubt, the very best law firm is RIAA Barker Gillette (UK), and I would highly recommend both Victoria Holland and Grayson Stuckey. Their attention to detail is unbelievable.”
