My brother had a criminal record, including drug cases and when the police summoned him to court we thought he was going to get a massive sentence, luckily Russell and Aitken handled the situation well and made it better

R&A helped with some family arrangements and were very friendly, taking time to explain everything clearly to my mother. Will use them again.

Previously, we used the firm in relation to storing the deeds for our house and rewriting our wills.
On this occasion, my husband had died and although all other bank accounts , direct debits etc transferred relatively simply, NS&I insisted that a certificate of confirmation was necessary in order to pay the amount of my husbands premium bonds and any prizes into my account, despite the fact that they already had our marriage certificate, my husbands death certificate and a copy of the will naming me as executor and ole inheritor. Lesley acted on behalf of the firm. She was understanding, efficient and gave clear instructions at each stage about information needed in the paperwork. Any questions I had were answered swiftly by email. All transactions are now complete.

Our experience was purely with Kerri McCorkindale, who was knowledgeable, kind and helpful all through the process of dealing with my Mother's estate. Progress was as fast as Kerri could go - any slowdowns were due to others. Kerri kept us informed at every stage. We always felt that we had a very competent person on our side who would handle matters well.
My uncle died a couple of months earlier and it was decided to use a large Edinburgh firm to manage his estate. This was a very poor experience, with me having to deal with some of the more tricky matters myself because they seemed incapable of doing the job. Then they had the cheek to charge us about twice Kerri's fee.
I will certainly return to Russel + Aitken if I have need for legal help in the future.

Worse than useless, infact i'd go as far as to say they were criminal, they were supposed to be defending me but it seemed they wanted to defend the police and not me.....i sacked them before it went to trial and chose to defend myself.
