Probate, Wills, Lasting Power of Attorney
We were recommended to Clifton Ingram when my brother died and chose the Reading Office. They dealt with inheritance tax, probate, his will and liaised with the Wokingham Office for the sale of his house. Following this we updated our wills and set up Lasting Powers of Attorney with the same solicitor who has now sadly left the firm. However we were quickly introduced to her colleague who seamlessly took over.
