Excellent service
Alistair Nattrass handled our case exceptionally well. From the start, he was approachable, professional and helpful. His advice was excellent and very reassuring for us as we went through the process. Our case was complicated and challenging for a number of reasons and Alistair helped us navigate this with skill and sensitivity. He was very kind and we remain grateful for all the support he gave us.

Professional but friendly
Hewitts provided a professional and yet still friendly service when completing a new will. They gave good and clear advice for drawing up a Power of Attorney.
Easy to talk to and gave clear and sensible advice.
Listened to what I wanted.

Made very welcome.
We expressed our wishes regarding the wills, he then took us step by step (very patiently) to create the wills explaining each and every part in detail.
Answered all of our questions and we are very satisfied.

Wind up of estate and probate
After the shock of an unexpected death as executor along with Alistair Nattrass and living at the other end of the country, Alistair went above and beyond with dealing with all the problems that occurred.
He really was a great help to me. My family have dealt with Hewitts when they were Brown Hume in my grandfathers day 1950's.
I would most certainly recommend.

Excellent , affordable, caring.
My husband and I used this firm of Solicitors for over thirty years. They have provided us with excellent service for everything from Conveyancing, Property dispute, Tenancy agreements, Trusts, Will writing and POA.
I therefore have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone seeking expert professional service delivered with a very human touch.

Family Wills done
I run a family business with shareholders so sorting out my will is not an easy task. Alistair listened to my wishes, gave very good advice and came up with the right solution. Easy to chat with, accessable and knows his stuff.
