What can I say except a big thank you from all our family. Yvonne Garside and her team at Burton Copeland were exceptional and resulted in us having a 100% perfect verdict. I can’t recommend her enough! Nothing was too much trouble, she was always there for us, easy to talk to, knew her ‘stuff’ and the attention to detail was second to none. Yvonne helped us out in our time of need and felt like she was part of the family by the end of our journey. I highly recommend Yvonne and her hard working team. Thank you once again Yvonne.

I want to say a big thank you to Yvonne Garside of burton Copeland after everything she did to help me and guide me through my trial. This solicitor is one in a million. If anyone seriously needs help you would be silly not to ask for Yvonne Garside to help prepare and do your case no stone is left unturned after a trial at crown court I was aquitted and I had dealt with another team of solicitors first so trust someone that had used another firm of solicitors and not had the right treatment one call with Yvonne and I am sure you will understand this women is a diamond…. thank you once again Yvonne Garside of Burton Copeland solictors..
