Case study – warehouse worker receives £1.2 million in compensation after he was reversed into by fork lift truck driver
A warehouse manager, referred to as Mr S in this case study, had his life turned upside down after he was reversed into by a fork lift truck whilst working at a transport company. With the help of Birchall Blackburn Law, Mr S won a case against his previous employer.
The 43 year old suffered significant injuries including a severely damaged foot and ankle, the loss of toes, a crushed heel and brain injury. Despite fighting to save his leg for over 15 months Mr S’s leg was amputated below the knee. A swelling to the brain required two surgical procedures and left him with 50 metal staples across his skull.
A friend put Mr S in touch with Birchall Blackburn Law while he was in recovery from the initial surgery. An expert team was able to assess his situation and put a case together against his employer to claim negligence.
Birchall Blackburn Law experts supported Mr S by helping him with a major rehabilitation process, accessing physiotherapy, neuro-psychotherapy, a support worker and the purchase of a new home where he would be comfortable and could move around safely.
The transport company denied responsibility for the accident but Birchall Blackburn Law fought to hold the firm accountable, and Court Proceedings in Mr S’s case were issued in the High Court of Justice, Manchester District Registry. The case settled before trial and he received £1.2 million in compensation. Read more…
Case study – a 52-year-old man walked for the first time in five years thanks to a cutting edge prosthetic limb.
He was only able to consider the advanced prosthetic technology after we were able to secure an interim payment to help fund specialist rehabilitation. The compensation allowed John to buy a light-weight wheelchair and he was able to trial a state-of-the-art prosthetic leg, which has a micro-processor in the joint to allow him to walk. Using two crutches, John stood and walked for the first time since his injury when he tested the hi-tech prosthetic.
John said: “It has made me feel very positive for the future. It was just a trial of the leg but I enjoyed it and I’m hopeful that it can help change my life for the better.”
The compensation that Birchall Blackburn Law helped secure will mean that he can buy the prosthetic leg and fund additional private rehabilitation and support. John used to be a keen walker, mountain biker and footballer. That all stopped after his knee injury and he had to rely on his family and friends to help him in his wheelchair.
The compensation settlement could change John’s life in so many ways. It has already enabled him to get back to the day-to-day activities we all take for granted – and push him to do much more.
Reviews from across all our services
In my 15 years of property dealings I have not met a team so organised with excellent communication and interpersonal skills showing exceptional commitment to work like both of you and for this we are extremely lucky and grateful. This is rare and we will like both of you to be proud of what you do because it’s not like that in other places.
I decided to sell my house via Purple Bricks. They suggested this company. My solicitor was Saadia Hussain. She was wonderful. So professional and efficient. An exceptional solicitor.
Very good and professional service.
I was brought off my bike by an irresponsible dog walker. The dog walker had an old large dog on an extending lead lying across the bridleway with owner on opposite side. On hearing us approaching he pulled the lead to get dog back onside and made a nice wheel level trip. I crashed, landing on my head, helmet cracked and face lacerated. 4 days in hospital etc. No apology from dog walker so I sued. Used BBL with Mervin Smith handling my case. I found BBL to be excellent, took me on a no-win no-fee basis. Mervin was excellent, very patient and offered excellent advice. Case finally settled just before court date with other side caving in. Thoroughly recommend BBL and Mervin.
Great service even though communication was disrupted due to Coronavirus.
The Morecambe team fully understood our circumstances and there by guided us through to successful completion of a sale and purchase.
I would like to thank all the team but in particular Jess, Leanne and Riah who latterly have been working from home and have always been available to answer our questions. We wish them all best wishes for the future.
I recently completed a long and acrimonious divorce with the help of Gill Graveson and Ellen Woodward from the Preston office. I can’t speak highly enough of them and their Secretary, Carol. Throughout a very difficult process, they were professional, calm and supportive and helped me steer a sensible path in the face of extreme provocation. We reached a settlement that I was very happy with, and I was able to walk away with my dignity and integrity intact. The conveyancing for the transfer of the former matrimonial home was dealt with by the equally brilliant Samina Master, who showed professionalism, kindness and empathy. I’d like to thank all of you ladies - you kept me sane!
Everything from start to finish was excellent. Ryk Williams done your company proud. During the current COVID-19 crisis in the UK his performance was nothing short of admirable. The price of services was on higher end but at the end of the day you get what you pay for. I would have absolutely no problem recommending this company to anyone and in particular Ryk. He has been nothing short of excellent in the way he has dealt with our house purchase from start to finish.
We used Mark Ainsworth last year to purchase our property, he did such a fantastic job. Kept us informed right through the process and dealt with everything in a timely manner. We are using them again on our next property.
Really impressed with my conveyancer. Ben Wilde was fabulous. Really quick to reply and explained things clearly. Highly recommended Ben.
A helpful and supportive visit with a positive outcome. A friendly, prompt and professional service much appreciated.
Under the Covid19 situation, very well organised.
Dealt with very professionally. There were problems with probate and the length of time it took to get this sorted, but these were overcome in a patient way. I was reassured that this would not cause a problem, which helped my stress levels a lot. Reception staff were also very friendly and helpful when I did need to call in to the offices.
Amy provided my mother with a timely and efficient service. Her willingness to conduct most of the consultations and signings at my 95 year old mother’s home address, at her own suggestion, was greatly appreciated.
Service with a smile. Very informative.
Birchall and Blackburn Law provided great service for our house purchase.
Everything was completed in a timely manner and staff were very helpful
The portal was great and easy to use too.
We recently used Birchall Blackburn Law to buy & sell and were really happy with the service. We dealt with Ben Wilde for the buying of our new home and selling our previous property which was great as he managed the full project without anyone else been involved. Ben answered all emails and calls and we were never left waiting. He was very professional and we can't thank him enough for his service.
We recently, bought our first home with the help of Naeema and Ambia of Birchall Blackburn. These two were extremely professional and guided us through this new experience would definitely recommend, money well spent!!
Great service from Anna-Marie Knipe at Leyland office sorting out replacement wills despite Covid lockdown conditions. Thank you 🙂
Birchall Blackburn acted for us in the preparation of our Wills and also Lasting Power of Attorneys. They were very informative in respect of both matters fully advising us on queries and concerns raised. Kristina was fantastic throughout and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend both Kristina and the firm.
Very satisfied.
Well satisfied.
Highly professional.
Due to the covid situation, these were quite difficult and unusual times, but I felt confident and reassured throughout the process. I was very satisfied.

You did everything well.
"We have been very impressed in our dealings with Jess Blacow. What has been noticeable is her attention to detail, the thoroughness of both her answers to us and the questions to the respective buyers. She has clearly had our interests at heart. Jess has always been very courteous to us on the telephone and is very pleasant to speak to."
"Everything was perfect. Just really pleased with service."
Everyone was professional and friendly. Put us at our ease. Have used your law firm before. As far as we are concerned, your firm could not be better. Keep up the excellent work.
"I recently completed with Stephanie Mills and I would like to tell you how amazing she was.
I honestly can't thank her enough she had all the answers to my questions and didn't make me feel like I was a problem so THANK YOU."
"Joe has been amazing throughout the process. I have already recommended the company to my friends."
I was given help and advice at a difficult time. Would recommend.
"The speed of the sale was brilliant. Matthew Wignall who did all the work for us was brilliant. I personally struggle with emails, but Matthew made the whole process Easy for me. He was quick, effective and was continuing to communicate with us. I for sure will be using Birchall and Blackburn in the future, and will be asking for Matthew again! Fantastic survive throughout."
"Very helpful and made sure we were well informed. Did everything expected and replied to emails very quickly."
"I just wanted to drop you a quick email to say how impressed I’ve been with the service Mark Ainsworth has provided whilst dealing with the sale of my house very recently. I will definitely
have no hesitation in recommending him to friends and family in future."
"Olivia was brilliant dealing with the conveyancing for the property. She sorted out requests from the buyers solicitors promptly and kept me up to date with everything that was happening especially towards the end. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family."
"Ben delivered a fantastic service.
I pestered him nearly every day and his professionalism was to high standards"
Very pleasant and charming personality.
Very satisfactory, service. I have had excellent service from Mervin Smith. His professionalism, sensitivity and support has been amazing. He kept us updated and sought out the best possible support networks. Finally the case has been concluded with such a great outcome and I can now move forward after it being a very distressing time for me, thanks to Mervin. I can’t praise him enough for his care and attention. He is a true asset to this company. Thank you.
I would definitely recommend. After 3 years of inactivity with my previous firm of solicitors, I was passed to Birchall Blackburn Law and Robert Jones took up my case, at the beginning of lockdown! Robert was in constant contact with me giving me updates on my case and awaiting my instructions. Robert has a no nonsense approach which was refreshing and at the beginning of August 2020 my case was settled. I am really happy with the professional way I was dealt with.
Robert Jones of Birchall Blackburn Law handled my claim for compensation following a serious cycling incident. From the moment Robert took on my case he acted with the utmost professionalism, explaining my rights and making each step of the lengthy and complicated legal process simple to understand. Robert’s dialogue was always open and honest and the outcome exceeded my expectations. I will be eternally grateful for the support I received and I would not hesitate to recommend Robert Jones and Birchall Blackburn Law to anybody seeking damages for a serious injury which was totally outside their control.
"Very good service in spite of Lockdown."
Kept fully informed during and up to completion.
Very helpful throughout and explained everything clearly. Everything was spot on. Staff very friendly.
As always Lisa was very professional.
"I would like to thank you for your recent services regarding the sale of my property.
This was managed very competently by Jess Blacow, and communicated very effectively by Leanne Whittle.
All enquiries were dealt with quickly and efficiently in a supportive and personable manner.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Birchall Blackburn to family and friends"
“I liked the way and manner that Jessica dealt with our conveyancing from the beginning to the end. I am extremely satisfied.”
"Everything was done brilliantly and professionally and our contact was always helpful and quick with responses and advise."
"My conveyancer Selena was very good, would definitely recommend her."
“Excellent communications from Jodie Belcher, Great service, and very happy with the services provided. Our refinance completed with minimal delays. Would use again”
We have been with the firm for years and never been disappointed. A 1st class service. Thank you.
Excellent!
This was done during Covid-19 lockdown and I was very impressed. Keep doing what you are doing.
Could not be better.

"Sharon Parker was amazing and very helpful"
We have used this company on many occasions and have always dealt with Karen. We have always felt confident during all stages of the transactions that have taken place and that our best interests were at the heart of it.
Highly satisfied with Birchall Blackburn (Leyland). Both Michelle Carpenter and Collette were excellent throughout the process.
I found Michelle to be very effective in resolving issues/problems that arose during my move. She was also very good at explaining legal terms when I didn’t understand them. I would recommend Michelle to others.
Naeema has worked hard during what has felt like quite a lengthy process. She has been quick to respond to emails which has been helpful and appreciated.
Our case was particularly complex but we got there with the great work from the team at Birchall Blackburn Morecambe
Very approachable and understanding, everything I required.
I was really delighted with the care with which Saadia dealt with my Help to Buy. As it was a stressful time dealing with HtoB as well as working a full time teaching job, I was thrilled that Saadia was so patient with my constant emailing and also so fast in responding to my requests for updates and worries about deadlines. Great customer care and thoroughly professional. I would recommend her without any question. Thank you very much again Saadia. You've been brilliant
Excellent service, fast responses everytime. Great staff, no matter how many times you call always willing to help.
I was worried about completion of my sale of my house being completed due to the issues with the Coronovirus. Every email replied to expeditiously. I would have struggled financially if the sale had not met the deadline as it would have been put on hold. Knowing I was downsizing as live alone and was currently paying for the bills for two houses they pulled out all the stops to ensure it went through on time. Amazing.
Karen Williams at Birchall Blackburn was amazing! My completion was due in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic and just as the UK was locking down. Karen was able to help pull completion forwards to avoid the lockdown and mean I could move. Nothing short of miraculous! Well done Karen and thank you!
I really struggled with the legal terminology. My team were supportive and replied to all my enquiries very quickly. Carly Helme recognised a problem in a large chain - she was proactive, professional and without her diligence I honestly believe the chain would have collapsed. Though stressful at times - Carly and her team kept the situation calm and always moving forwards. Thank you Carly and your team.
Karen and her team were very easy to deal with and took the stress out of the whole process. I can't thank them enough for their guidance and help through this process. As first time buyers we felt they clearly explained what we needed to do and when, providing assistance along the way when we needed it.
Thank you for your efforts in seeing our house sale and purchase through to the bitter end. Despite the sale falling through once, our title defect/ground floor flat, a general election, leaving the EU, a rentcharge hot potato and now the UK lockdown, you have carried on regardless - an amazing job.
We are now in our dream home with a beautiful garden - all thanks to you.
I was looked after very well all the way through the process even though a lot of legal stuff went over my head, they explained everything in laymans terms.
Superb service especially as we were dealing with grant of probate which added to the stress. I can only highly recommend this company for all of the help and support provided to me and my family.
Luisa Ruehle has been excellent and has handled our conveyance to a very high level of professionalism and customer service. Thank you very much Luisa!!
I was very inexperienced on the buying a house as this was my first home that I was getting a mortgage and was in contact with Birchall Blackburn Southport, through my mortgage broker, and I couldn't be happier with the services that they provided, everything on the legal responds with the council and perpetration of completion of the house transfer was taken care of and made the journey so smooth for me and stress free. would definitely recommend them to family and friends.
After having a nightmare with our previous solicitors, I really didn't want to go through this all again, and I assumed they were all the same, but I was wrong. Birchall Blackburn have been fantastic from start to finish, from the simple things like calling me to introduce themselves, and being able to upload passport documents to their online portal rather than sending them off (something I was dreading doing in case they got lost). Our contact changed from Muhammad to Joe Witkiewicz and Joe has been so good, answers emails straight away, and was really helpful in advising me on how to transfer funds quickly. He never ignored me when I emailed him, was always on the other end of the phone if I called, and never belittled me if I asked a stupid question. We are due to complete in 2 days time and I am so excited. Thank you so much Birchall Blackburn Law for showing me not all solicitors are the same! Can't recommend them enough
Excellent service, particularly liked the pro-active thinking and approach that Julia had. No question was to much trouble as answer, all queries dealt with in a very professional and effective manner. Very happy with the service I have received.
Used them to change my mortgage provider. Excellent service, quick and clear answers to any queries /questions. Whole process was easy and I was kept informed of progress throughout.
Good service. Ryk W. was always responding to my emails. I am happy to move to our new house after 3 months after we seen house first time. Whole process wasnt too long even though we had quite a long chain. Recommend this company. Everything can be done via email so time saving specially if you are not from Manchester.
Tragic circumstance handled with the upmost respect. In September 2018 my younger brother was unfortunately killed in a road traffic collision. After months of independent research seeking professional help and advice, I came across a charity called RoadPeace for road crash victims. It was here on the RoadPeace website where I found Birchall Blackburn Law. I was dealt with by Robert Jones who, from the very beginning was a beacon of hope to my family at a time when we were grieving.
Robert’s professionalism was shown through the way he has always handled myself and my family, with complete compassion and empathy throughout the 17 months he has handled my case. I have also had the pleasure of dealing with Mervin Smith who I can also speak highly of. Both Robert and Mervin are completely professional and are a credit to Birchall Blackburn Law - I can definitely recommend Birchall Blackburn Law for anyone seeking professionalism and respectability.
Very professional. Perfect.
Well pleased with all those I spoke to.
Amy was first class in all respects!
Excellent.
"We recently instructed your company to deal with the sale of a property. We would like to say how pleased we were with the service that we received from Natalie Dickinson and her team, especially Bradley, Jenny and Rebecca.

"Absolutely nothing. Haylie was flawless in her communication and extremely proactive in helping to push through both the sale and purchase of our respective properties.
We could not have asked for better legal/conveyancing support from Haylie. She is a credit to your business and I would recommend her (and the wider business) to anyone. Thank you, Haylie!"
"I would like to say thank you to you and your team. I would also like to give special thanks to Joe Witkiewicz for his hard work, advice and getting completion done to a satisfactory and speedy conclusion."

As far as I’m concerned you are A-OK. Found your info on the internet and never looked back since then.

"I am writing to express my thanks for the excellent service provided by Sharon Parker and Suzanne Rowan. I was very impressed by their service. Sharon and Sue were brilliant in helping me. Obviously, buying and selling is a stressful business and their efforts made the whole process much easier for us. What I really appreciate is that they answer every query really quickly and in a very clear manner.
I have already recommended and will certainly come back to them.
I thought you should know how pleased I am with their work, how well they represent your firm and how they are pleasant and efficient at the same time."
Excellent service! Emails responded to very quickly. Amy was very helpful and answered any questions we had.
You do well by explaining things in English that I can understand. Thank you.
"Responses to emails were always prompt and questions asked were always provided with good answers. It meant we were able to deal with an unfamiliar process without issue and we would be happy to use your services again in future should we need to."
"I would like to take this opportunity in praising the fantastic and professional work done for me by Stephanie, once again.
I have dealt with Stephanie in the past, and nothing is too much trouble for her to see too."

"It has been a wonderful experience to work with a dedicated conveyancing team and I am very very impressed with their efficiency and punctuality. I must thank the team for their commitment, advice and guidance in order to successfully complete the process. Frankly, this wouldn’t have been possible without the team’s desire in helping. Therefore, in this regard, the team deserved to be congratulated for what they have achieved. If I should rate on point basis then I give them 10 out of 10."
"I hereby write to you to commend the utmost diligence and professional duty of your colleague Jessica Sidebotham. She clearly takes her role seriously and has been extremely helpful answering questions in the most pleasant way. She has guided me through this purchase with ease."
"Anna Nodwell has been very helpful in dealing with our transfer of deed, in what was a complicated transaction. Anna was very informative and we are very grateful."
"I just wanted to say how great Emma Pomfret has been with dealing with my purchase. If I’ve ever had any queries they were answered within the hour and every stage of the process went through without delay. I could not have had a better experience and I feel a lot of it was down to the swift work from your side."
Highly satisfied. We are pleased with everything you did for us.

Julie, Jennie, and Charlotte were excellent.
Any business is about people, and although I have never met these people, they were a credit to your firm."
"I just wanted to drop a note to say how efficient Emily Moon has been from initial contact to completion today. She has always been available when needed via call or email and provides very prompt responses, during a property transaction this is key and I’m sure you’ll agree this makes the process more smooth."

I'd certainly be willing to recommend Anna to friends and family and would be happy to have her help with any future purchases of my own."

From the first phone call meeting and then when Susan took over, she got the best experts on board with my case. It couldn't have been better. Thank you!
This was a very hard time for me and my family, and I always felt I could call and talk over any concerns I had. If I was to need legal help in the future I wouldn't hesitate to contact you.
We found Anna-Marie very pleasant and efficient. Even though we were very nervous, we were made to feel at ease.
Perfect.
Just a few words to say how professional and efficient Birchall Blackburn were during the sale of our business. We were at all times kept informed of progress and Jennifer McGowan particularly was brilliant and bought our completion in on time.
I am very pleased with the way Susan Liver dealt with my clinical negligence claims against the NHS Foundation Trust. She handled the claim in a sensitive manner. I felt I understood everything that went into the case. I found Susan to be approachable, understanding and trustworthy. The monetary compensation I received is life-changing. I feel Susan does a good job and is very understanding of a client’s needs. The team at Birchall Blackburn are just brilliant.
Excellent service from all departments.

I doubt you can improve on excellence.
You helped when nobody else would, and that was truly appreciated. I wish you all the very best, you deserve it, a helpful, honest, compassionate solicitor...
Amy has been an excellent representative to our family. She has been supportive, kind and caring to us all at a very difficult time for us. We couldn’t have hoped for anyone else to look after us. Nothing could have been better. Amy has been compassionate, caring and supportive at a terribly sad time for us all. Just excellent.
Amy was very professional and approachable.
Excellent service.
Louise Allcock completed the sale for me, and I can’t express how pleased I was with her service. I found her to be thorough, efficient, and was impressed with how rapidly she progressed the sale. She made my involvement easy and understandable, to someone with little knowledge of selling a house, and regularly anticipated my questions and concerns. I would be very grateful if you would convey my most sincere gratitude to her for making the whole process effortless for me.
I would also appreciate this opportunity to draw your attention, in particular, to Ambia Khatun.
Ambia is part of Louise’s support team, and was my point of contact with Birchall Blackburn Law. I must say that Ambia made my contact with your good selves an absolute pleasure. She is an intelligent, caring, patient, and understanding lady. She made my experience with your company most comfortable. She was professional, courteous, and went that extra mile when responding to my enquiries and providing information. Thanks to Ambia, I wouldn’t hesitate to employ Birchall Blackburn Law again should the need ever arise, and I would offer my most heartfelt thanks if you were to recognise her involvement too.
I wanted to take the time to convey my satisfaction with the level of service I have received from Emma Pomfret and Rebecca Thornborrow.
Throughout the process, I was kept informed. The professional manner in which all the procedures were followed was exemplary. They were both very easy to work with. I have no issues to report. All tasks were completed in a timely manner. Even through the period when Emma was on annual leave, Becky took over seamlessly and kept me informed.
I have no concern in recommending Birchall Blackburn Law and their services to anyone else should the situation arise.
Your Team performed in an excellent manner, in particular Simon Taylor and Marie Wilde.
All concerns, queries and details completed in a timely manner.
Professional to the highest standards.
I would not hesitate in suggesting Birchall Blackburn to family and friends and would utilise your service again if needed without hesitation.
Please can you pass on my thanks again to both Karen and Lauren. I would like them acknowledged in every way for exceptional service to me. A special thanks to Lauren for her compassion to me. Her support and service was invaluable.
I would like to say how helpful and efficient we have found the team that have been dealing with our transaction. Emma Hill and Hannah were very helpful, professional and quick with responses.
Thank you to Sally Abrams for everything, you were great.
I’d very much like to thank you for the invaluable help and support you have given me throughout this lengthy matter. It has been a challenging time for me at best, distressing and very sad at worst. Your approach has provided me with much more than a professional service: your calmness and empathy has eased my anxiety; your sound judgement has eased my worry; your positivity gave me hope; your accessibility gave me assurance and confidence, and your expertise has achieved a successful outcome.
Thank you for helping me throughout with this case.
You have been very professional, empathetic and considerate and knowledgable throughout.

We had a very stressful time buying our property a couple of years ago so were worried about selling it. With Birchall Blackburn it was a breeze. We were really impressed with the support staff. Not once did we ring up and no one got back to us. Particular thanks to Marie and Katharine who were very supportive and transparent during exchange and completion. We would instruct them again.
Everything went pretty smoothly than I was expecting. Very pleased.

Easy to deal with Ryk and Dane who were prompt in communicating with me and acting on my instructions.
Both Lyn and Rebecca have been absolutely wonderful in a very stressful chain. The end result was a thoroughly successful completion even though in some aspects were out of their control. This did not stop them progress chasing relevant parties ensuring expectations were managed on all sides for a smooth transaction.
I praise their response times when dealing with requests. My biggest bugbear is long delays but Lyn and Rebecca always responded promptly whether by phone or email. I always felt that my case was being worked on and was kept fully up to date with any developments.

As first time buyers of a new business, we were very nervous about choosing a lawyer. We almost went with the local firm who had recently completed the conveyancing on our new home. Thankfully we decided to take the broker's recommendation of Birchall Blackburn Law.
Always competent and friendly. I was immediately made to feel relaxed and in control.
First class service.
I was well pleased

The service received from Birchall Blackburn Law, has been second to none and we couldn’t have asked for a more professional team. At first, it was daunting to receive all of the paperwork required in one go but once we realised there was very little else for us to do other than wait for completion, it was fantastic. The standard of knowledge and professionalism was top class.
Will recommend you to others.
All is well

Jenny has played a pivotal role in completion of the deal in the final phase. She has been extremely diligent, punctual and simply splendid in communicating the progress of the deal that put my mind at peace. She delivered on every deadline she promised and on one occasion sacrificed her personal time after she had finished work to develop a document demanded by lender solicitors last minute.
A big thank you to Jenny in helping me complete this deal, highly recommended team of solicitors indeed.
My husband & I would highly recommend Birchall Blackburn especially Jennifer McGowan & Tony Coates, we spoke with Jenny regularly whilst they were overseeing the sale of business, she was always available to explain the process of stages we were at with the sale she also worked hard & succeeded to get completion done on the date we wanted.
I can’t praise Jenny enough for the work she carried out for us and the help she gave me during a very trying time. I never met Jenny but can assure you that the service she provided was over and beyond anything I expected. Jenny dealt with any issues I raised calmly and efficiently throughout the sale. Towards the completion of the sale of the business I felt many times that I could pull out because the buyers were putting me under a lot of pressure and seemed to be deliberately awkward especially on issues relating to the staff at the shop. Some of the staff had worked for me for years and I felt the buyers were unfair at times. Jenny resolved these issues quickly and efficiently and made the transaction much easier for us all. Jenny also assured me she would be available over the bank holiday weekend even though she shouldn’t have been working and said I could phone her at any time. I cannot praise Jenny enough for her assistance in all the matters and would recommend your company to anyone.

I just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with Natasha Bamford’s assistance. She did an excellent job with the staircasing and remortgaging of our property. The process was completed quickly and smoothly, and she kept us informed at all times.
I would like to advise you of the professional and efficient service of your employee Sophie Broadhurst. We would like to thank her for her excellent service.
Mark Ainsworth and Nabila Butt.
Both Mark and Nabila were great, I have worked with Mark many times before and have always had a brilliant working relationship with him, he is brilliant indeed, very prompt and helpful and supportive and always there for you, as is Nabila when he is away.
When speaking to the team on the phone they were very helpful.

Saadia has been absolutely brilliant throughout the whole transaction for our remortgage. I’ve never dealt with a solicitor that has got back to me so quickly, kept me up to date and provided reassurance where necessary. I would 100% come back to use your firm for any legal services in the future, even though not local to me. Please pass on our sincere thanks for Saadia for all her hard work and for making this process completely stress free.

Anna-Marie was always friendly whilst remaining professional.
Most impressed with service.
Thank you for acting for me.
Responsive and friendly.
Amanda Martland (superbly assisted by Jack Johnson) were an absolute pleasure to deal with. Throughout the recent conveyance they carried out for us, we can't recall one instance when the phone wasn't answered and very quickly. Every query that we brought up was answered promptly in a very clear and concise manner and the whole process of selling our property felt simple; this was obviously due to Amanda and Jack's skill and great effort in the background. I would recommend Birchall Blackburn Law without hesitation and, when I come to sell another property, within the next year, I'll be contacting Amanda with my instructions.
All round great service, friendly and I would definitely use again!
Thanks so much for all your help everyone has been fantastic.
There was nothing that I disliked it was a good smooth exchange.
I would recommend highly my solicitor Hannah Folds for her expertise in the handling of my purchase.

Lisa Royle and Birchall Blackburn have dealt with a number of purchases and sales for me and my family. I always recommend Lisa to my clients with regard to conveyancing matters.
Sarah McIntyre is wonderful and kind.
Sarah made a difficult time and process for us very easy and was extremely helpful and sympathetic.
Birchall Blackburn have been my solicitor for a very long time - possibly over 30 years. Very professional and helpful staff - especially Ian.
Very satisfied with service provided.
Been with BB a long time. Very professional.
Sarah was lovely.
I have had cause to utilise the services of a solicitor for 3 house sales/purchases over the last 23 years. This however was my first time needing a solicitor for the sale of a business. I did and still do not hold any of the previous solicitors in high esteem as I felt they were overly expensive, difficult to track down, vague in their responses and failed miserably to understand the concept of urgency!
Knowing that I required the expertise of a Commercial solicitor left me expectantly waiting for a similar, if not worse, experience than those I had already endured. To my considerable amazement I have had my negative opinions thoroughly quashed. Tony Coates and the magnificent team at Birchall Blackburn Law have been outstanding from day 1 of, what has turned out to be, a very complex sales process.
Communication has been prompt, specific and clear to understand. Tony has provided guidance when necessary, even when that guidance has not been what I have wanted to hear and the level of professionalism that has been displayed in each and every interaction has been consistently first rate. Tony has demonstrated his ability to quickly adapt to hurdles , both expected and unexpected, and he has always kept me informed and discussed with me the various options I have available.
I cannot thank Tony and his team enough for all the work they have put in for me – you have all been genuinely fantastic.
I have worked with solicitors for many years I am 56 years old and I have found very few very helpful conscientious solicitors that have given me open honest and Wise advice and without charging a fortune for this information. Whenever I have asked for quotes I have found Birchall Blackburn very competitive and very competent. I have dealt specifically with Tony coates and his team on commercial and personal transactions. I've been very impressed with how often they have saved me money by offering sound Advice and Solutions that were unknown to me which really helped to make matters fast and smooth without serious costs.
And the thing I like most about them is the personal touch that they have and the communication which has been second to none everything has been dealt with fast and efficiently with full transparency help and explanations to understand the full legal implications with every part of the work carried out..
I've started to use Tony Coates and his team at Birchall Blackburn for all my legal solicitor work within my business where I own several commercial warehouses and also in selling personal property where they have dealt with many sales and purchases.
I would be the first to give them a five star rating. From the moment I had the first telephone call with Tony I have not looked back, always been very impressed had times where they've been able save me thousands of pounds with Solutions and great negotiation when we have often worked with terrible solicitors that were trying to make every penny from every problem. Tony almost had a skill to turn them around and bring and keep things Brief and to the point.
First class service thank you Birchall Blackburn I am a very happy customer.
I am writing to express our sincere thanks in dealing with both our wills and power of attorney. Both of us were still dealing with the recent diagnosis which we found quite distressing at the time.
