Great service
I needed to update my will and approached Woodfines, as they had been highly efficient in sorting out my late father's affairs after he died in 2022.
The service was quick and easy from start to finish.

Peace of mind
I had complete confidence in contacting Woodfines who have been our solicitors for many years. Previously had LPA's & Wills prepared for my late husband and I, so naturally came to them for my own needs following the loss of my husband in 2022. My experience has been one of total understanding and caring, professional in approach with efficiency and effectiveness in every way, giving me peace of mind. To Woodfines thanks you.
