Agriculture & Rural Affairs

George is an outstanding young Solicitor who is wise beyond his years. He helped us with a complicated land transaction, involving multiple parcels of land. I would say one of George’s best attributes is his clear and timely communication. He was clear from the outset with how he could help us, how long it would take and at what cost. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone and look forward to working with him again in the future.

We engaged Butcher & Barlow to purchase some agricultural land. Tom was assigned and remained a single point of contact through the whole process. He was easy to contact and communicate with and was very clear about what I needed to do at each stage. I would have no hesitation in working with him / the company in the future.

Superb professional advice. George Flanders guided my husband and I through a recent overage transaction provision in a thoroughly professional and straight forward manner. We were impressed with his legal knowledge, attention to detail and explanations of the situation. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending George for any such matters.

Tom was very professional. He has a good manner with clients and look forward to working with him again.

I can't recommend Mike Bracegirdle and Karen Miller from Butcher & Barlow highly enough. Our house purchase was completed quickly, smoothly and on-time thanks to their professionalism and diligence. They were patient, thorough and always quick to respond. Every step was explained in plain language, which meant we felt confident throughout the entire process. We are incredibly grateful for their expertise, dedication, attention to detail and proactive communication. A truly outstanding service, thank you! Highly recommended for anyone buying a property.

The team's knowledge of complex rural land transactions was outstanding, along with their ability to propose solutions to clauses that may not have been in the best interest of our family.

Benjamin Davenport-Lawton was efficient in the way in which they dealt with instructions on behalf of mutual clients and were able to recognise and gave attention to the particular challenges which the work required, within tight timescales.

A great team. Nothing ever seems too much trouble to any of the staff. Always a warm welcome when you arrive at their office. You trust their confidentiality completely.

Rebecca Jepson is always available when we need her and has been a great support. Her farming background has helped us when dealing with various complex Landlord and Tenant matters. She has very good client skills and ensures she does her upmost for our mutual clients.

They are fully aware of the difficulties that we face in the industry on a day-to-day basis, which we found refreshing and beneficial. We have used Butcher & Barlow several times in the past and we will use them in the future if we need to. We would highly recommend them as a team and a company.
