Efficient & Excellent Service for Lasting Powers of Attorney

5

We have received outstanding support from Nelissa Hicks and her team at Rothera Bray in Arnold.
She clarified all the steps required in processing the lasting Powers of Attorney and progressed our application to the Office of the Public Guardian with no hiccoughs (that I understand can be a major hurdle). If you are looking for an efficient and competent Solicitor in this field we would strongly recommend her.

Nelissa really stood out for us both.

Nelissa really stood out for us both; how she made planning for death seem a relatively pleasurable experience, I don't know. She was knowledgeable, experienced, switched on, efficient and great to deal with.

As a former solicitor of many years' standing, I have very high expectations when consulting solicitors as a client. Some years ago, Nelissa Hicks completed a very complex probate matter for us, so when we needed a probate solicitor again recently we were delighted that she was also available to act for us this time. She is extremely knowledgeable and skilled and always pays close attention to detail. She is also super-efficient and responsive, extremely personable, and she has boundless energy and enthusiasm for her work. Absolutely superb service - thank you so much!

Nelissa Hicks dealt with our probate application for my mother’s estate. She was diligent, efficient and infinitely trustworthy. I appreciated her candour but she was also empathetic. I can’t recommend them enough.

I have used Rotheras recently for Wills /Probate and for conveyancing. On every occasion I have found all their Staff to be professional and efficient yet friendly and explaining, in layman's terms, every stage of the processes. I have had most dealings with Nelissa Hicks and found her to be exceptional and a credit to her profession. I would use Rotheras again and highly recommend them.

Nelissa Hicks showed such patience and compassion dealing with my 90 year old neighbours son's estate following his death. She went out of her way to complete LPA and probate quickly and efficiently. Excellent at explaining what was happening in a way my neighbour could understand. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
