I have used Lodge Brothers for both funerals and settling probate. Myself and my wife decided it was time to update our wills. The solicitor dealing with us was very helpful, patient and professional. Our questions were answered clearly and we were given sound advice throughout our dealings with the solicitor. Our wills have now been rewritten and we now have peace of mind. We were very satisfied with our dealings and service received from Lodge Brothers Legal Services. Since my first dealings with Lodge Brothers I have been treated with respect and empathy throughout. I can thoroughly recommend Lodge Brothers Funeral and Legal Services I will not hesitate to use them again.

Kind and Attentive

This review is for a different branch.

Suffering a bereavement is a very stressful experience, especially if it is a parent who has died.
Lodge Brothers Legal Services were there for us at every stage and guided our Probate through with no fuss, and went beyond their brief to make sure i knew the next steps in the process.
My family and I are full of praise for our personal solicitor and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Helen undertook the whole issue of Probate & Inheritance Tax following my mothers death. She was extremely helpful and prompt with all matters and kept me fully informed at all times.
I later asked her to deal with Powers of Attorney for myself & my wife and with this she was again very effective and helpful
