Family / Probate matters

4


We were initially introduced to and met Charlotte McGregor in respect of Probate and LPA matters for a family member in October 2019. Iain Douglas was then involved in the day to day handling of matters and we dealt mainly with him. We were advised of updates and additional benefits sought for our sister in law to increase her income. We are currently now involved with Ryan Grffiths who is handling Probate and estate winding up for our sister in law who passed away in September 2023. Charlotte McGregor is Executor and has LPA .

During all this time and continuing the service and advice received has been excellent. Our dealings with Wollens have been due to family bereavements and throughout have found everyone to be extremely helpful and considerate. Charlotte attended the funeral in October this year which we felt was extremely kind and much appreciated. Cannot compliment them all enough and would highly recommend.

In good Hands

Loss can be a hard road to travel, Charlotte and her team looked after me and my Dad’s will with kindness, professionalism and great care.

She made what could have been an overwhelming task, a calm and reassuring experience.

Always highly competent and gently human, when it mattered. I am very grateful. Thank you Charlotte.
