Administration of mother's estate

5

Katie Senior and her team at Sills & Betteridge have recently carried out the administration of my mother’s estate. I found the service offered was very efficient, and sensitively undertaken, which was a great help at a difficult time. Everyone I spoke to was friendly, kind and very helpful. The whole process went ahead very smoothly and being able to leave everything to Katie and her team lifted a weight from my shoulders. I felt very confident that I could leave everything to Katie and that she would contact me when necessary and keep me up to date as things developed. Being able to rely on Katie’s professional knowledge of the process of obtaining probate and administering the estate was invaluable and I really appreciate that. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone needing a solicitor.
