Pleasant and helpful
Lauren May was able to see me in Weymouth at a convenient location and took great trouble with my Will and Power of Attorney. I found her very approachable and helpful. I would certainly recommend Blanchards Bailey.

Efficient and reassuring
I've instructed Blanchards, including Lauren, for several issues over the last 12-18 months and have received prompt, reassuring and efficient service from all, but also with very good understanding and empathy. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Probate
I am pleased with the work that Lauren has done , but wish that probate could have gone through quicker there seem to have been a lot of waiting around for H M R C to get back to Lauren and maybe a phone call to HMRC could have been made sooner.
