Kacy Ford consistently provided calm professionalism, guidance and legal expertise on emerging issues which greatly expedited and assisted the sale of my property. Kacy followed up on questions very promptly and efficiently. On the few occasions where she was unavailable there was good coverage by the rest of the team (Amy Hanson in particular). Overall, very satisfied with the level of service received and I would definitely recommend Girlings.

Very impressed with both Louise and Girlings.

Chris understood what we needed and responded with great efficiency. He was aware of the financial constraints and explained what was needed to progress matters to the desired conclusion. Throughout the process Chris was approachable and responded promptly and courteously to questions. The terms of engagement were clear and made us aware of the costs which helped us to keep within our budget. Chris Brightling offered a good level of service in a professional and pleasant manner and we are very happy to have engaged him. Director, TV Production and Distribution Company

Nigel and I had a good rapport, Nigel was extremely patient and took time to explain terms so that I could understand. Nigel was thorough and I'd like to personally thank him for all his help on both occasions.

Nicely done at a difficult time for Mum. Mrs Diplock

It was excellent. Felt very cared for.

It was a great pleasure working with Chris who promptly and efficiently dealt with a review of our constitution and a number of corporate law matters for us. I would have no hesitation in calling upon his services again in the future. Director, Property Investment Company

I would like to thank Mr Neeve for being very helpful and kind. Mrs Fisher
