Professional and friendly service
After our initial approach to use the Boyce Hatton free will writing service, we did not hear or receive any further communication for quite a while which probably influenced our 'Initial Impression'. But once the ball started to roll then everything went like clockwork.
Janice was very knowledgeable, friendly and efficient throughout the whole process.

Making a new Will
I had been worrying for a very long time over the need to alter my Will. I had many different problems that I needed to sort out before actually deciding on how to compile my new Will.
Janice visited me at home, we had a lengthy discussion over different issues and she helped me greatly to sort out my concerns. Janice started the process after our discussion and after considering her first draft, I was able to make clear decisions on my final wishes and was able to make amendments to arrive at my final Will.
I was very grateful for her help and advice.
