BHP Law BHP LAW are the best solicitors going, they go above and beyond every time without fail. They have supported me on a number of different tasks in the past, but deliver the same high quality experience each time. I suspect I'll be a life long customer. I have been a client of BHP Law in Durham using their family law service and I also saw a solicitor to help me draw up a will.

I have been impressed by the experience I have encountered with the solicitors I have used - who have struck a perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness, putting me at ease, giving support and advice in some difficult situations and have enabled me to get good results for what I needed.

I have had a journey through my late father's estate, at times it felt like a forlorn hope to settle his estate. Rosie Woodward at BHP Law changed all that. Through dogged determination, the estate was settled and for that, she has my eternal gratitude. The best thing I ever did was approach BHP Law. Colin Yates

We used BHP Law for both the sale of our property earlier this year and the purchase of our new home this month. Emily our Solicitor was excellent! As with so many others we were targeting before the end of the stamp duty holiday for completion and despite hitting quite a few bumps along the way we completed as planned. We would not have been able to do this without Emily's continued perseverance and guidance. We can't thank her and the team at BHP enough.

Only recently Dermot Winters has been brilliant on a complex matter regarding commercial property - He was efficent, knowledgable and responsive - Well done BHP, Rockstars of the legal world for sure.

Critical: Quality, Responsiveness, Value Was quoted 1500 for my divorce was around 3 times as much as this, service was appaling had 3 solictors as they kept leaving the company. Absolutely no drive took 3 years had to chase all the time. Fianancial advise was poor no personal service. Would not recomend to anyone

Having used BHP law over a decade namely for wills, power of attorney, trusts and deed of variation. I have been more than pleased. In the past the image of the solicitor was that of namely a man in a dark office with a stern look, and you trying not to stutter your words in case you in case you displease. Not anymore. Bright modern offices in faverdale cockerton, no problem parking. What is very nice is the relaxed atmosphere, and it does not have to be Mr Mrs or miss, all the time. Yes the first name can be used yes, nice touch.

Very good lawyers, at the start I wasnt so sure as they didnt spell my name right on any of the contracts which may seem like a small typo, technically invalidated everything on those documents, but this was later fixed by them after I mentioned it. I had a stressful process of purchasing a house and even small typos made me panic, the seller also gave us very short time to complete contracts, we only had 5 weeks to sign and exchange!

Our solicitor did a very good work and completed EARLIER that their deadline! Super impressed. And thank you to her personal assistant. She did a great job keeping us updated and chasing things up for us. Will I ever use BHP law again? YES!

My husband and I needed help with our mirror wills. We had a meeting with Holly and we were impressed by her professional but very friendly manner. We are so pleased we contacted BHP Law in Darlington.

We used BHP Law for our conveyancing when moving house and they offered a great service so would have no hesitation in recommending them. Jemma from BHP dealt with our sale and purchase and she was extremely efficient and demonstrated excellent customer service going above and beyond to ensure everything ran as smoothly as possible. Had it not been for Jemma's sound advice and proactive approach, we would have lost the purchase of our new home so can't thank her enough. Would definitely use for any future legal needs.

We chose BHP Law when purchasing our new build home after being recommended by a friend and we most definitely weren't disappointed. As first time buyers we were unsure what to expect but Jemma from BHP kept us up to date throughout the process and went above and beyond to make what can be a stressful time a breeze. Even when we experienced delays elsewhere Jemma was quick to complete any relevant paperwork and was always available to answer any queries we had. We legally completed last week and we couldn't be happier in our new home. Can't recommend Jemma and BHP Law enough!
