Not For Profit

I have known Joanne in a professional capacity for over 20 years.  I have always found her to be thoroughly professional, reliable and trustworthy.  It is reassuring to know that when a problem arises she will go out of her way to resolve this.  David Jones

Many thanks once again for all your help.  It is a great comfort to know that each year you take away the stress of sorting out my accounts and personal tax.  John Richards

It was extremely important that we deployed the services of someone that was professional but tactful due to the nature of this service. We find Girlings always available, they offer a first class service.  I particularly liked that the Account Manager Ailsa Fairchild was happy to visit our company to learn about our business in the early stage at which point I was able to agree the type of service I required.  Girlings keep us fully up to-date throughout and have so far been successful recovering all debts for us.  Farmura Environmental

We have been trading in our current form since 1948. Over the years we have tried numerous methods to reduce our unpaid invoices, primarily using debt collection agencies. The results were invariably poor to non-existent and did little to recoup monies owed despite us paying fees for the service. Three years ago we decided to ask Girlings Solicitors if they could assist with our debt collection. Since that request the results have been excellent. Our unpaid debt level is at the lowest point in living memory and the fees we pay are so reasonable that our profit margins are barely affected.   A Welch and Sons Ltd

Ailsa Fairchild handled a debt collection case for myself and I have been very impressed with the speed of dealing with my case and handling any queries that I had.  I was particularly impressed with how she overcame any challenging issues that arose and always kept me informed throughout.  I appreciate all that has been done for me and for making my life so much easier, would definitely recommend her to others. Beth Cornwell

On behalf of my family and myself I thank you for the way you have handled this matter -  you made it easy for me.

We wanted to thank you for all the help you have given to us and our friends who have also had your advice. It is a great comfort that you are there with your knowledge and expertise.

I think the service you provided me was first class, truly, and I am grateful to you for this.

I would recommend Kacy to anyone. She is outstanding. Ms Fall

Thank you for all the support and encouragement you have offered me during my divorce. Your professionalism has been a constant that I have been able to lock onto throughout, and that professionalism has been exhibited not only by yourself but also by the other professionals you have recommended to me. All have reflected the high standards to which you conduct youself and I have never felt that I have had anything less than a top team behind me. Mr Brewer
