Friendly and professional
Having decided to transfer our legal business away from the company we had used for several decades, we were delighted with our experience with Grant Saw.
Care was taken to understand our particular situation and needs and the resulting update to our Wills was very satisfactory.

It was a pleasure dealing with these solicitors and found their help excellent at a time of difficulty and if I need their help again I will definitely call them I'd also like to give a big thank you Sarah Hogan for her help in buying and selling my properties

Very Happy with the Service
We needed to update our wills and having had a very patchy service lately with the company we normally use (our usual solicitor retired) we decided to try Grant Saw. Jeremy Brooks helped us draft new wills and we were more than happy with everything. We will use them again, whatever our legal needs are.

Probate made easy!
Jeremy provided my family with straightforward advice from the start regarding our Probate application for my late father's estate. This was the first time we had ever navigated this process. The internet is full of conflicting and confusing information - which when dealing with grief was difficult to understand. Jeremy made it simple, and easy and kept us fully updated throughout the application process. He gave us brilliantly clear and direct client service, transparent fees from the start, and compassionate handling at a difficult time. As such I highly recommend his services. 5*

Seemingly difficult issues made easy.
A small office with friendly staff, not the least bit intimidating. Business dealt with efficiently and clearly. The only difficulty I found was with the online identification app, and I see from other comments that I am not the only one. However, it can be bypassed.
(And they have excellent Fox's glacier mints in the waiting room!}
