Preparation of Joint Wills

5

My wife and I finally faced up to the reality that we should have prepared wills years ago. We had previously used Francis George to purchase and register the freehold of our lease, an exercise that proved more difficult than it should have due to obstructive behavior by the then freehold owner. Our case solicitor patiently resolved each obstruction and as we had a good outcome it was natural that we turned to Francis George to prepare our wills. The matter was professionally handled in a relaxed manner that put us at ease. We received exemplary guidance throughout the process which required only two visits. We were advised of the cost up front and pleased that we did not incur additional costs having requested minor changes. Should the need arise we would not hesitate to use Francis George again.

I (unfortunately) had the need to use the services of Siân at Francis George. She has been fantastic and so helpful at every step of my process. She has communicated well, costs have been in line with what had been detailed and she has always helped me know what the options are, and what the implications may be of a cause of action. I cannot recommend Siân and her colleagues at Francis George highly enough - thank you.
