The help offered by Emma Benyon-Tinker and the whole team at Dunn & Baker was excellent. They made dealing with the process of divorce far easier and always offered calm and constructive support even when dealing with difficult matters. I feel the their charges were reasonable and completely inline with what was initially advised, I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone.

If you are buying or selling a property then we can’t recommend Kathy Cracknell highly enough. We sold both our houses last year to buy a home together and then also had to sell a relative’s property via power of attorney. Kathy was fabulous and as well as being highly efficient and prompt, also very personable and approachable and very responsive with regards to our questions and queries . One of the sales was not straight forward and fell through several times but Kathy was very supportive and understanding regarding our ever increasing stress levels. Thank you Kathy for a great service.

Mr Came offers an exceptional service. I work closely along side him as the appointed financial deputy for one of our clients who sustained an ABI. Mr Came is helpful in responding any inquiries and if there to advise as best he can.
The team at Dunn and Baker are very friendly and polite when we come in for face to face meetings. The place is always clean and tidy.
I am extremely happy with the service we (Steps Ahead Care & Support) and my client receives from Mr Came and Dunn and Baker, we would highly recommend them to others.

We requested a review of existing wills drawn up by another firm of solicitors a number of years ago. The review feedback was clear and explained the differences which could apply now which were not relevant at the time the wills were drawn up. In the even the differences were minor and the advice was "do nothing" for which there was no charge!

I was in a very dark place very recently, I was a passenger in a severe car crash just before Christmas. 2 days before to be exact...my family and I were overwhelmed and lost, our prayers were answered by Dunn and Baker, they sent us a wonderful woman who was our beacon of light in such a dark time. She fought tooth and nail for us to get what we deserved! I would recommend this firm to absolutely anyone who feels like there isn't a way out from the pressure...they saved us, well and truly and we can not thank them enough.

I am extremely happy with the service that I received from Dunn and Baker. I got three quotes and D and B were the most competitive. Claire Penhallow dealt with my case. She was extremely helpful, courteous and friendly. She always returned calls and emails within 1 working day. She always had time to answer my questions and explain he conveyancing process to me. I have no reservations in recommending Claire or Dunn and Baker to anyone who is thinking of buying a house and needs a solicitor.

Ann has gone far beyond the call of duty on so many occasions, often answering questions and reassuring me in her own time.
