Outstanding Service

After losing my husband suddenly whilst abroad, I found them to be kind, understanding and always on hand if I needed help. They acted as quickly as possible in handling Probate which was a very complicated process. Emma went above and beyond. I would recommend her services to anyone.

Provision of a Will, Probate, Power and Attorney advice

I have worked with Claire Davis of FDC Law for a period of some three years. She has finalised Wills, POA and Probate for my family during this time I have always found Claire/FDC very professional, p[providing practical accurate advice in completing the above documents. Claire is very approachable and has always given honest straightforward advice.

I cannot speak highly enough of FDC Law, and would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone. They provide an excellent service.

poor experience

very disappointed with the level of service received with the person dealing with this matter and the length of time it took to complete, would probably still be waiting now if it wasn't for the fact that that i had set up a property alert with the land registry, it was only after repeated chasing for updates or information did we finally conclude the matter.

I found FDC Law to be completely competent, and very understanding and compassionate with my circumstances. Jayne Wells was very professional with her advice and extremely efficient and quick to act on my instructions.
I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending FDC Law to anyone.

Excellent service by Victoria and Tracy. They helped me avoid purchasing a problematic property and got my second purchase through in a very short time before my mortgage offer ran out. Very polite and professional, left no stone unturned with regards to searches and enquiries. Would absolutely use them again.
