Insurance Claim

5

I had given Sophie an unusual case to deal with, one that was causing me and my family a lot of distress. After speaking with multiple solicitors unable to help with my case I was lucky enough to find Glover Priest. Sophie and her team were amazing with me from start to finish. The case was resolved in just over a month which was an unexpected and well received turnaround, considering the amount of months I had spent prior trying to resolve the issue.

Have already recommended to a lot of friends and family. Brilliant service, can’t thank enough.

Family argument over inheritance

5

Ongoing, historical argument with family members over distribution of parents Will was resolved by Glover Priest in a logical, step by step process but also in a friendly manner. So glad that we used their services both as a legal process and giving us confidence to resolve the dispute. PLus their fees were very reasonable and we have already gained them new clients by our personal recommendations.

Contentious Probate Matter

5

After being quoted excellent prices that were fixed we decided to put our matter into the hands of GloverPriest as other solicitors did not seem to want such a difficult case.
It took time due to COVID home workings and courts. The situation became even more difficult with some hard decisions and actions which we were able to overcome with the guidance of a very good Solicitor who knew how to take control and get things done.

Absolutely shamazing!!!!

I have never had the pleasure of using such a wonderful team of professionals! Fantastic from start to finish and they even supported me emotionally at times when moving became too stressful. Sophie and Vicky are just wonderful, warm human beings who really reassured me and answered every whimsical query I had throughout the process of buying and selling. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone x thank you so much

Thank you Ms Sophie and Ms Danielle for helping us throughout the buying process, especially we are not living in UK, still your team helped us a lot. We wish to have your team helping us next time if we buy another house in UK.

Sandra Harper I cannot rate this company highly enough. Katie and Sophie were excellent. They handled my husbands estate with such dignity and if ever I needed to either see them and speak to them on the phone it never was a problem they always returned my calls if I couldn't speak immediately to them. I have since recommended them to my friends and they are pleased with them too
