Wills

4

My husband and I decided to change our Wills to incorporate a trust. Our family situation is quite complex but our solicitor was very patient and talked us through the whole process and answered our questions with great patience.
We had a slight problem with accuracy due to an administration error but that was easily rectified.

Will service

I decided to update my Will, and as Grace was already engaged in dealing with my late parent's estate, I asked her to do this for me. Very prompt and professional service.

Successful outcome, professionally handled

5

Grace took on my Will and Power of Attorney after an unsuccessful experience with another solicitor in a different firm. If I needed to speak or contact Grace, it was always handled immediately and with a pleasant manner. We were working to a schedule which I appreciated.

Wills + Lasting Power of Attorney - Update

Grace handled the matter very efficiently and expiditiously. While the matter was straigntforward enough, the circumstances weren't with my wife now confined to a nursing home, as well as being wheelchair bound.

My partner and I worked with Ashtons legal when purchasing our house, both for conveyancing with Amy and for arranging a declaration of trust with Grace. Amy has been very prompt in chasing the sellers solicitor, and great with providing us with the necessary documents and answering all our questions/concerns, as well as spotting red flags during the process. Grace has also been great to work with. Our declaration of trust was relatively complex due to the different amounts we each contributed to our deposit and the way we wanted profits to be split if we sell our home. Grace drafted the declaration of trust in a way that exactly reflected our needs and in a relatively short time, well ahead of exchanging. I could not recommend more!
