Nothing was too much trouble, he listened and advised us on what was the best that suited my mum and my family on two separate wills.

I was very happy from the start to finish with the undertaking at making my will, so no improvement necessary.

Professional, respectful, helpful. From first meeting to receiving the grant of probate, it took only 8 weeks. Well done! Many thanks.

Very empathetic and understanding professional who was very patient and clear when helping me organise my will. He came to where I was staying when I was unable to get to him.

My grandma did not know which solicitors she wanted to go to for her Will but was so happy with JONATHAN EDWARDS @MANBY BOWDLER she said he explained the costs and all her questions so she understood really well and did not rush her.

When selling her house she went back to MANBY BOWDLER and had the same professional service from LOUISE COLEBY

My sister is a lawyer but as we are family we can’t go to her law firm so to update my parents WILL they went to JONATHAN EDWARDS again they where very pleased with the service and advice they had and my sister said they are a great firm.

My grandma had read the great reviews about manby bowdler she wanted me to let them know how pleased she was as well.
