WILL REVISION

5

Both Sarah Steel, and my first point of contact Helen Farrow, were excellent. Highly proficient, proactive, read my needs perfectly, proactive, and suggested issues and legal points not covered by my previous contractors. Have total confidence in both the depth and breadth of their advice, or should I say, legal wisdom.

Sarah Steel and her team are amazing, polite, helpful, friendly, and very knowledgeable, and they helped me to sort out an over payment on my Mum's Inheritance Tax, with regards to claiming a refund on my Mum's Estate.

Well done to Sarah's team,

Many thanks
