‘I am a former Legal 500/Chambers solicitor. I am therefore discerning in who I instruct. I run a property portfolio and experienced my first problem tenant. I was recommended to Sarah Savage at Bexley Beaumont and I was not disappointed. She was responsive, reassuring, thorough with her review, communicated well, pragmatic with her advice and transparent with her fees.

I never had cause to speak with an associate as Sarah was always available to talk to.

I have since recommended Sarah to a friend who has been equally impressed.’

‘See above.’
