Testimonials

The proof is in the pudding. Our clients and peers speak highly of us and you can see what they say here:

Wonderful job

I would like to thank you Lesley again for the wonderful job you and your team did for me at a very difficult time in my life.

After all these years I’m finally free

Thank you so so much Amanda. Actually there’s no words to thank you. I feel great. After all these years I’m finally free. Thank you.

My recent collaborative process

Dear Marjory, I just wanted to say a huge thanks for all your help, advice and counsel throughout my recent collaborative process. You definitely made a difficult process easier for me. Thank you.

I still get to see my kids 3 times a week

Just wanted to say a huge thank you for your help and representation today. It’s such a relief to hear that I still get to see my kids 3 times a week. Also last but by no means least can you pass on my profound gratitude to Counsel who was a star !!!!

I won’t hesitate to put them in touch with you

Looking back I wish my ex-wife and I would have gone down the collaborative divorce path but as you know she chose a very different way which ended up being most certainly a longer, more stressful and more expensive path for both of us. Should I ever hear of anyone whose marriage has reached that stage in Scotland I won’t hesitate to put them in touch with you Lesley.

Splendid work Marjory

Splendid work Marjory, it has been a treat to use BTO and your services.

I have come out of the process a much stronger person

I would have no hesitation recommending Lesley Gordon to anyone I know who needs the services of a divorce lawyer. It was a very positive experience all things considered and I have come out of the process a much stronger person thanks to Lesley.

You have smoothed the pathway with your efficiency

Amanda…May I take this opportunity to thank you for your help in these matters. Although I am a resilient person, it has not been easy, but you have smoothed the pathway with your efficiency…

Excellent communications and support

Many thanks for your recent work related to my divorce…..I would particularly like to thank Amanda Richardson for her excellent communications and support.

Our anxieties were greatly alleviated

Lesley, thank you so much for all your help. It turned out to be a very uncomplicated matter in the end and probably not the most interesting for you. However our anxieties were greatly alleviated with your advice and work

Things have been finalised in about twelve weeks

Amanda, many thanks for seeing all this through for me. I cannot believe that after the best part of two and a half years of frustration (pre BTO), things have been finalised in about twelve weeks.

Financial knowledge and gravitas

Lesley has financial knowledge and gravitas. I think she is faultless.

Very approachable manner

Many thanks Marjory for your very approachable manner during our meetings.

Risk assessed everything

They explained everything to me very clearly and we looked at every permutation and possible outcome and risk assessed everything.

I would like to thank my exceptional Scottish team

My dear legal team! I have been writing this letter of thanks in my head since about two months ago, and didn’t know it would take a bit longer than expected to actually be able to express my deep gratitude to you ALL for winning this tough and enduring process for me……I would like to thank my exceptional Scottish team, Lesley and Ruth, in particular. You literally blew my mind with your professionalism, your deep understanding and participation in my personal circumstances, your strategic wisdom and the feminine perspective that steered the UK negotiations with the opponent’s party into the right direction every time.

Help guiding us through a very stressful time

I would like to thank you again for all your work and help guiding us through a very stressful time.

I left the offices empowered and liberated

Just wanted to say huge thank you to Lesley Gordon. I left the offices empowered and liberated. Not sure any psychologist would have done a better job! On top of her real job.

I came out of your offices feeling great!

Marjory, thank you for a really positive meeting on Friday. I feel things are a lot clearer in my head – I came out of your offices feeling great!

I will definitely recommend you…

Hi Marjory, thanks again for being an absolute joy to work with during this unknown and nerve-wracking process. You made me feel calm and reassured throughout (not an easy task). I will definitely recommend you to anyone else looking for representation.

Thanks for all the expert guidance through a trying situation

Hi Marjory, my daughter and her son are doing great. Everything seems to have calmed down. She and her husband finished the mediation process after a couple of visits as they both felt they had to step up to the mark for their son’s sake not for personal reasons. Once again thanks for all the expert guidance through a trying situation.

I certainly feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders

Marjory, I just wanted to say thanks very much for your help right throughout the case. Lately, the ad hoc support has been invaluable and given me the confidence to keep representing myself and not feel pushed into agreeing something I’m not comfortable with. I appreciate how difficult it must be to provide support when you are not fully involved and particularly where I’ve needed assistance at short notice. Thank you so much!

Approachable and sensitive manner

Marjory, thank you very much for your very approachable and sensitive manner during our meetings.

Great service

Beverley thank you so much for all your hard work and making things run as smoothly as possible. Great service.

I was very pleased with how things went today

Hi Beverley – I would just like to email you to thank you for your services today and commend you on doing a stellar job. I was very pleased with how things went today. The level of professionalism you showed was much to my satisfaction and greatly appreciated. I felt very relaxed at having you in control of the proceedings and how you kept me informed of all that was going on. You are an absolute credit to your profession and a great asset for your company. I would also like to thank Debbie for giving you such a thorough briefing on my case files.

I am eternally grateful

I am in no doubt I have made the correct choice by having BTO Solicitors represent me in such a difficult time. I am under no illusion you and your team will continue to do the best for me in future. Many many thanks for today. I am eternally grateful.

Guiding me through a difficult time

Lesley, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your professionalism. Guiding me through a difficult time, also your understanding and empathy as to my personal situation. I would not hesitate in recommending your services to others.

We would not have managed this without you

Marjory, I think we can all honestly say that we would not have managed this without you, truly you have been an absolute star and we are all very thankful.

Highly professional and excellent services

Debbie, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the highly professional and excellent services I received from yourself and your team.

Thank you for your professionalism and talent

Thanks Debbie, as always, for your professionalism and talent, it has been a pleasure.

Help during this extremely difficult time

Debbie, I would just like to thank you for your help during this extremely difficult time. I really appreciate it.

Outstanding job…

Marjory… you are doing an outstanding job… Thanks again for your support and expertise in helping me navigate through this horrible situation. I really appreciate it.

An Excellent Lawyer…

Beverley thanks for all your assistance with everything. It’s much appreciated and rest assured should I ever need an excellent lawyer in the future you will be the first to be called.

Your advice has been incredibly helpful

Beverley thank you for everything you’ve done regarding my case and for your assistance in getting the many issues resolved and matters concluded. Your advice has been incredibly helpful and greatly appreciated. Should I require any further assistance, I will be in touch.

Efficient and smooth service

Debbie, could I take this opportunity to thank you for the efficient and smooth service you have provided, and particularly, in our first meeting when you listened to my concerns and really helped explain things and put my mind at ease.

From our first meeting, I felt confident…

Hi Debbie, I wanted to take this opportunity to pass on my gratitude to you for getting me through this. From our first meeting, I felt confident and assured to be in your safe hands and that never changed during the last 18 months. Whilst it is a great relief to have this finished I can reflect on some of the low points and I will remain forever grateful to you for helping me keep my dignity and integrity intact. Dealing with some of the correspondence, filled with defamation, insinuation and delusion was very hard and at times, I really wanted to fire back! However, it was your counsel and advice that helped me rise above it all and for that, I will be eternally grateful.

Highly professional and meticulous in detail

Highly professional and meticulous in detail. No shortcuts or compromises involved, ensuring all eventualities were covered and underwritten with third-party expertise where appropriate.

Their service and support has been excellent

After quite a complex case, I can say that their service and support has been excellent.

Forever I will be grateful…

Marjory, forever I will be grateful and thankful to you for all the hard work you did for me and my family. Thank you very much again and again. I am so very blessed in life that I found a lovely understanding person like you. Not many lawyers would say go and have a cup of tea before you have a chat. I was very touched by this conversation.

All starting to come together…

Thanks Marjory, it’s all starting to come together.. thanks to you…:)

I would recommend you to anyone

Hi Marjory and Keira, I just want to thank you both for taking me through this terrible time in my life. I have learned a lot in the past 3 years with dealing with BTO and I would recommend you to anyone as you have been very fair and honest with all parties concerned.

Always appreciated being able to rely fully on you and the team

Amanda and Lesley, thank you to you both for all your help, now and during last year, and, as I said before, I have always appreciated being able to rely fully on you and the team at all times. Obviously, a very sad time for me but I am relieved that it is at an end now, and thank you for making it less difficult than it probably could have been.

Such a lovely welcoming manner

Beverley, just wanted to say thanks so much for your fertility law training session provided for the group last night! It was super helpful and everyone really appreciated it. You have such a lovely welcoming manner which I think really helped people feel comfortable to ask questions.

You only have one shot at divorce.

Get it wrong and the consequences can negatively impact you and your children’s lives forever.
