Amazing Service
I was recommended Coodes through a different service, they were extremely helpful and easy to talk too, from the first story explaining my situation all the way to the final hearing. Chris and Courtney Sutton, were always fast to respond, were happy to explain certain legal terms over an over again and take time to make me feel like I knew what was going on, even with all the legal jargon. They also understood me and what I wanted from my final outcome and during the proceedings acted appropriately and make the correct suggestions even if I didn’t see it at the time(due to emotionally connected).
Every step of the way they were in depth and made sure we covered every single point to get the correct outcome.
I’ll be forever grateful to Coodes, Chris and Courtney for how much help was provided and the work they did for me.

Most professional
I have had the benefit of Colin Hunter and Hayley Gaffney advising me during the sorting
out of both my mother and father’s wills/estates. Both have gone beyond to help and
support me through the various problems I have had to contend with, while at the same
time being most professional
