Mum's Estate
Having left Bolton 30 years ago it was lovely to hear northern voices dealing with mum's Will and Probate - I felt rooted back in my home town again. Louise Rance, ably assisted by Adam Thomas were warm, kind, engaging and wise throughout the difficult process, always on hand to offer guidance and support. My sister and I felt in very safe hands. I know mum would have wholly approved of Russell and Russell, the best if Bolton values.
