Michael Walker 1COR Privacy Notice
“The service provided by both Mr Walker and Barristerforme was absolutely second to none from start to finish. From the moment I met the lovely lady on reception (who makes a wonderful cup of tea I might add!) to the final eviction of what can only be described as a ‘nightmare tenant’, I felt completely reassured in Mr Walker’s knowledge and capabilities. No matter how many questions I had or how often I asked, Mr Walker was always there with a reassuring response. I’d like to hope I won’t be faced with the same scenario again, but if I were to be I’d be straight in touch with Mr Walker without a doubt!”
