Making my will and other matters
Although my original appointment with Emma McAdam was fine, after that there was no consistency of personnel. An appointment was made for me with Sophie-Dominique (who I have never met) to sign my will. I was told at the last minute that she was otherwise occupied. I was seen by Maxine and Jack. This was frustrating as I had a couple of questions I wished to raise. Maxine was not in a position to give advice but Jack was helpful. I would have felt much happier seeing the same person on each occasion as consistency is key to a good solicitor/client relationship. I had to request that a copy of my will be sent to me as the original is stored at Tozers office in Teignmouth. I felt this should have been offered automatically.

Will
Emma was very friendly and easy to talk to. Emma created a very relaxed atmosphere and answered all my questions whilst highlighting possible problems that had not occurred to me. I found it reassuring that Emma said I could make follow up appointments about this subject or anything else if necessary.

My wife and I recently used Tozer's to re-write our wills. This matter was dealt with by Sophie-Dominique Waddie and we could not have been more pleased with the service we received. Sophie-Dominique was delightful. She answered all our questions in a professional yet friendly manner and demonstrated a thorough knowledge of her subject.
This was our first contact with Tozer's and we would not hesitate to use them again.

Completing a Will
I was recommended the firm of Tozers in Exeter from a friend and they have exceeded all expectations. From the onset of making the initial phone call, to the first meeting and final completion of the Will, I encountered a team of warm and respectful professionals. I was made to feel completely at ease and given time to ensure that I fully understood the legalities. I wish to mention Sophie-Dominique Waddie, (paralegal) as being extremely helpful and an excellent communicator. I would highly recommend Tozers and my solicitor Emma McAdam.
