We have just used Tim Gymer for our conveyancing transaction and have been so thankful for his knowledge, responsiveness and friendly nature. Tim really went the extra mile and kept everything on track for us. It has been a pleasure buying and selling through Brachers and we would highly recommend them.

Having had bad experiences with Solicitors in the past, I cannot speak highly enough of the team at Brachers. Queries were dealt with professionally and timely, at no time were we left out of the loop - If I could only say the same about the Solicitors of the couple who purchased our property used. Tim was excellent in ensuring that we understood what was happening at all times and even chasing down the third party when they went MIA. Would not hesitate to use their services again when required!

I cannot recommend Brachers highly enough, Tim Lancaster was our conveyancer and was superb throughout the transaction. He is very diligent, responsive and demonstrates great client care. As a company they have been very professional and although there were some teething problems with client take on at the outset I would say that the team were very responsive and helpful in rectifying the technical problems.

At a time when I was going through a traumatic episode in my life, the Brachers team were supportive, warm, friendly and personal. Their legal advice and knowledge around the court system was excellent and gave me the confidence to listen and act appropriately. I would recommend the team in a heartbeat. I can now move forward with my life #divorce #financialsecurity #peaceofmind #inpertuity

Can't fault Brachers! We were first time buyers and to be honest had no idea on the process of buying a house. We were recommended Tim Lancaster and he was brilliant. Not only professional and so fast in answering any queries we had, Tim made the process of buying a house so smooth and offered us great advice along the way. Can not recommend enough.
The attention to detail and transparency was amazing. It is thanks to him and Brachers that we now have our first home. When it's time to embark on a new house adventure we hope to have Tim's assistance again.

My experience of Brachers was wholly positive. My matters were handled with impressive efficiency and I was treated with fairness, respect and empathy. The work that Brachers did on my behalf was first class in all respects. I received excellent advice and guidance from the firm and a great deal of support at a difficult time. Brachers kept me fully informed of ongoing costs and did their best to keep costs down. I cannot recommend Brachers highly enough.

I had the misfortune of requiring a solicitor to act on my behalf for an unexpected separation and subsequent divorce. Brachers were recommended to me and partner Stephen Smith, who is head of family division, took on my case. He was immediately friendly and reassuring. His approach was direct, honest and straight-forward, I was kept updated and informed of the costs that would be involved.
He explained the process thoroughly, whilst remaining understanding, supportive and VERY patient. The whole Brachers team were excellent, secretaries and assistants included. True professionals. I absolutely recommend their services. Thank you very much.
