Not having used a solicitor for many years I did not know what to expect, the internet is full of names and details but even this is daunting. However, I had heard of Whitehead Monkton so reached out to them for advice. This I do not regret; the support and speed of contact was great and quickly a difficult situation was made clear and simplified. Withing a week my issues we solved, and life moved on.
