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 highly recommend Laura Roberts and team (Adrienne and Robyn). As a first time buyer I was completely clueless about the process, but they all took the time to answer all my questions and explained to me the proceedings so that I knew what to expect and what to look out for. The team were all so due diligent and responsive throughout the whole process that I am so glad I went with Barcan+Kirby.
