Initial Free Consultation

The first meeting was easy to request. It was organised speedily and with simple to follow instructions.
The video meeting was in no way onerous and conducted at a speed we were comfortable with.
Mr King demonstrated his wealth of knowledge in the topics raised and we came away from the call confident that his company were the right people to manage our needs both in Will making and power of attorney.

Administration of LPA applications

Daniel has been helpful and timely in answering questions as April King prepare and submit my parent's LPA paperwork to the Office of the Public Guardian / OPG. April King's approach has removed the uncertainty of the application process and made it more reassuring for my parents. Daniel has ensured that questions are answered promptly and completely without delay.

Totally professional approach.
Initially tried to zoom appointment which didn't quite work for us. It was decided that Martin Jones would do a home visit. This gentleman was so helpful, and informative, I thoroughly recommend the face to face approach.

Made the process so easy

I wanted a discretionary trust will and had been given conflicting information by others. Paul King sorted everything for me at a very reasonable price and with minimum fuss.

We visited to update our wills in a face to face consultation with Catriona .
She impressed us as a confident and competent professional .
Catriona expressed herself with clarity of communication and, more importantly, in plain English.
She is very knowledgeable and informative and so we feel much relieved now we have consulted with her .
We believe her to be an excellent ambassador for the firm and we have no problem with highly recommending April King and will continue to use the firm as and whenever necessary.
It was a great pity that had to go to Nottingham to do it as their Leicester office is now closed.

From the initial phone call to the first video call with Catriona, the whole process was very professional. Catriona was both knowledgeable and so pleasant to talk to. Catriona explained everything thoroughly and checked to ensure that we understood it all. I provided all the information needed and as a result, our draft documents arrived a week later. We then had time to review them before our next video call several weeks later. There was absolutely no pressure to purchase but I did anyway because as well as a first class service, the price was very competitive. From the initial video call to the arrival of our ‘proper’ documents, everything was absolutely first class. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company and in fact have given their details to several others since.

About this branch

Description

Since 1991, we have led the way in estate planning and bespoke Wills tailored to protect your children and grandchildren's inheritance. As specialists in Wills and estate planning, we can help you understand and deal with issues like keeping inheritance in the family bloodline, future care fees, estranged children, remarriage implications, and why Lasting Powers of Attorney are so important. Our clients are often surprised to learn that standard Wills offer little or no guarantee that their children's inheritance will not pass sideways out of the family bloodline to potential predatory third parties, such as the Local Authority or a former son-in-law or daughter-in-law.
