Financial / support with making a will.
The support that I received throughout the service was considerate, focussed, friendly and helpful. Different members of the organisation / Birkett LLP throughout the process which involved aspects of Probate, financial decisions and Will making were well coordinated. All queries were responded to promptly. My son was kept informed and involved in the process throughout.
