Will Preparation

5

I needed to get my Will put in place. The process was quick, advice given was easy to understand and I was very happy with service I received. I shopped around a number of solicitors but Hewitt's was by far the best value for money.

Thank you so much for your help and advice in assisting me with my Powers of Attorney and Will. I would like to put on record what a pleasure it was dealing with you. At all times you were efficient, a pleasure to work with and your explanations of various points were simply made and easy to understand. So often 'legal jargon' can lead to confusion making the job harder.

I wish you much success in your chosen career.

Emily was very helpful in addition to providing guidance she mentioned a number of valid points which were used within the will.
The result was that the completed will was ideally suited to my needs.

Very professional, used language and terms that could be understood and only moved on when we understood each answer we were given.
We would use Hewitt's again.
