After finding myself with a hospital appointment for major surgery i realized i needed to make my will. i met Terrie Ross on the Friday and was surprised how straightforward and easy she made the conversation covering everything I'd thought of and clearly explaining the important things that hadn't occurred to me. After just an hour the outline of my will was done. when she discovered my operation was the following Wednesday, she worked to get my will finished and ready for signature on the Tuesday. i was amazed how quick and efficient she and her team were, it was much above anything i was expecting.

I'd kept meaning to make a will but the thought of having to sort through and read masses of documents meant I kept delaying. Then suddenly I needed to go into hospital for major surgery and realised I needed to get my will written.
I went for an appointment on the Friday with Terrie Ross and was surprised how straightforward and easy she made the conversation, covering everything I'd thought of and clearly explaining the important things that hadn't occurred to me. After just an hour, the outline of my will was done.
When she then discovered that my operation was the following Wednesday, she worked to move her schedule around to the point that my will was finished and ready for signature on the Tuesday. I was amazed how quick and efficient she and her team were, it was above and beyond anything I was expecting.
I'm extremely pleased with the service Terrie provided, it was clear, friendly and flexible. I doubt if I could have got such speed and efficiency elsewhere.

I am very pleased and happy that my case was handled by Michelle Hubbard who was characterised by a professional approach to the case and great support and understanding my situation thanks to which I felt that I had someone on my side and I easily got through all the difficulties related to the case. She guided me wonderfully through the difficulties of each interview, hearings and emotional memories. During these few months it was clear that Michelle worked with great commitment and effort to help me in my court hearings. I can definitely recommend the company Barcan and Kirby to anyone who is going through a difficult time and needs professional help.
I am happy and very grateful that I could work with such a professional lawyer as Michelle Hubbard, for which I am eternally grateful…
