We found Martin Cray because we needed a solicitor to help untangle our daughters UK estate after her sudden death in Australia. It was an awful job for us, the one no parent wants, so we needed someone who could navigate two jurisdictions and our grief. Tamara was the prefect blend of professionalism and kindness...and blessing in a storm.

Experienced, professional and experts. Thank you for a first class service, regards will writing and advice on potential issues with probate/IHTax. It is worthwhile paying a little bit more for such quality than doing things cheaply. Tamara also advised on little-known aspects of probate planning such as if a beneficiary is under 18 it is best to have 2-executors. Also if you marry, divorce or have a civil partnership it is advisable to review your will.

I was recommend Martin Cray by a McKenzie friend. After an initial conversation with Tamara, their specialist in family law, I felt it was the right course to proceed with them.

Going to court is never an easy process and Tamara went over and above to support me. She would reply to messages very quickly and gave me all the time needed when I needed to talk through matters and in preparation for the case. I felt very prioritised and appreciated the hand holding.

Tamara is smart, kind, professional, friendly, talks at twice the speed of a normal human being (rather a bonus when on the clock) and is wise beyond her years. I am grateful for the service I received.
