Amy was very professional, replying thoroughly and promptly to any queries. She was proactive in moving things along. I think it would be difficult to find anyone better. Highly recommended.

Superb, professional service

5

Amy recently applied for Grant of Probate on our behalf and I cannot speak highly enough of the outstanding, professional and efficient service she provided. A difficult time was made easier with the smooth and speedy legal service Amy provided.
Amy (and her team ) were so approachable and helpful when we had questions . Communication was outstanding throughout.
I have used Watkins and Gunn in the past - the last two occasions specifically with Amy who has provided me with the best legal service possible.
Thank you.

Previously dealt with Amy Thomas regarding drafting of Will and was impressed with her friendly approachable manner. Amy explains the subject matter clearly and concisely and we wanted her to arrange our lasting power of attorney. Amy is very efficient and kept us informed every step of the way.

Putting a mirror will in place

5

Thinking of doing a will seemed really stressful and I thought would be a lot of work from my end.

But from the very 1st call to the end,Amy made is super easy to complete and was stress free.

She gave extra advice which me and wife wife had taken on board,

Amy also explained what we need to do in the future if we needed to amend our will.

We was really happy with the price too.

Thanks Amy

Matt and becky.
