A positive experience

5

In anticipation,a session with the Solicitors can be intimidating. I can quite honestly say that it was both educational and pleasant. I think that Mr Rothwells manner enables one to provide sometimes difficult and private family dynamics necessary to formulate the documentation in question, without feeling exposed or challenged. I appreciated the fact that if there wasn't always a fully satisfactory answer he didn't pretnd that there was one.He gave me the impression that he was looking at ones situation as if it were his own and giving advice on that basis. His manner is both professional and reassuring.

Personal Service in making our Wills

5

We recently engaged Paul Rothwell to review and update our Wills. He undertook a through review of our circumstances before suggesting how our Wills could be structured. What pleased my wife and I was his calm, professional approach and a willingness to listen to what we wanted to achieve. Paul is not only a top quality solictor, but also someone who puts 'people' at the centre of his thinking. He will always be our first port of call for legal advice.

My wife and I had our wills drawn up for a second time (updated) by Paul Rothwell. Paul's expertise and knowledge on listening to and creating a will that perfectly meets your needs is professional and, in a world where quality of service is often thwarted at the expense of dealing with a volume of business, Martin Tolhurst Longfield still offer that good old fashioned quality of service that will always stand the test of time. Thank you once again Paul.
