In 2005 Gareth became a partner in this firm as a result of a merger and in 2007 we took over the practice of M Jackson Solicitors. A great help to my and my partner with very swift and precise advice to help save us from being stung with a nasty bill. I was looking to downsize so put my house on the Market I found a buyer who was looking to upgrade so I brought there.
The Shepton Mallet office was opened 50 years ago (in 1958) by Ted Hallam then of Thatcher and Hallam Solicitors. Our Director Bill Bartlett joined Thatcher and Hallam in 1967 and took over the Office in the early 1970's under the name of Thatcher and Bartlett before relocating to the current premises in 1982 which created the space needed to grow the business.

BGW’s Libby and Alyson were amazing.
We cannot recommend them enough. Although we are four hours away from their office, it made no difference to the high quality and responsive service we received. We will be using them for any and all future legal needs.

We recently used BGW for both our buying and selling conveyancing and received excellent service throughout. Would definitely recommend. Very prompt with their actions and helped get us through a complex transaction as it involved HelptoBuy, a Lifetime ISA, management companies, indemnities, renegotiations, and a tailored contract exchange process. Thank you Andrew and team!

Andrew Cutland...... You hero. Made the whole process a dream. We had some difficulties with the vendor, I was advice accordingly and was all dealt with efficiently to allow the process to continue. Every and any question was welcome and we were made to feel safe as the process of buying a house for the first time can be unsettling. It was a pleasure to use these solicitors for our first purchase and will be certainly returning. What a lovely experience thank you!!!!!

Communication absolutely appalling would not recommend them at all .After putting a offer on a property that a local estate agent has on her books we was messed about for approx 17 days before the solicitor gave us a answer that our offer would not be excepted .Even the estate agent told us it was disgusting and frustrating because she was doing her best to sell the property but was not getting anywhere with the solicitor involved with the sale .the estate agent even told us that the solicitor told her off and to stop ringing her and would give them a answer when she is ready to . We was told a

We just completed on our purchase with Andrew Cutland acting for us. Andrew was brilliant in getting everything done quickly. We were set a very short deadline which we met (but others didn't) thanks mainly to Andrew's quick work.
Andrew and Cindy's communication was very frequent, friendly and concise - their assistance really helped the whole process for us and we can't thank them enough!
