Wills, Power and Lasting Power of Attorney.

5

From start to finish the execution of our Wills, Power and Lasting Power of Attorneys went smoothly. Lorna and her team were excellent and explained everything in detail, step by step. I would never attempt to undertake making my own Will or Powers of Attorney without using a good reputable firm. I am not a Solicitor and therefore leave this very complicated matter to the professionals. I was quoted a figure at the start which, was very reasonable for peace of mind. I can now sit back knowing that Vincent Sykes will carry out all of my matters when the time comes.
