Efficient Friendly and Helpful
I was an executor of my late Aunt’s estate. WBW had drawn up the wills originally so I approached them to handle the estate and was introduced to Melissa Down who handled everything for me. She made everything very easy to understand and used plain English in all her clear communications.
Very happy with my experience with WBW and would highly recommend.
