Mrs Nesta Howard’s Estate

Everyone at Matthew & Matthew have been very supportive, empathetic & professional whilst handling my late mother’s estate since June ‘23.
This has greatly eased the difficult journey my family & I experienced during this time. I would like to thank everyone there, especially Caroline Cake & Lynsey for their genuine concern & expertise.

Matthew & Matthew acted for me when I bought my first property in 1983.
They have since acted for me for various legal matters:
Always first class to deal with at reasonable cost.
Very professional and positive.

New Will

Caroline Cake met with me to draft a new will. Very courteous and professional service. I received clear concise expert advice delivered in terms I could understand. Caroline also amended the Will on my request without adding to the agreed fee, which was much appreciated.
