will writing and inheritance advice

5

I have known Brachers as a firm for many years and always held them in the highest regard.
I was recommended to go to Emma Hegarty by a partner whom I have known for a very long time when my wife and I decided it was high time we put wills in place.
The service and advice we received from Emma was second to none - prompt, comprehensive and wholly suited to our situation. we could not have been better served.

We had our Wills done with Emma at Brachers and she was brilliant. Went through everything thoroughly, answered all our questions quickly and was very polite and friendly.
Would highly recommend Brachers and we will be using them again in the future.
