Updating Wills

Updated our Wills as part of the free wills month linked to guide dogs for the blind. We were able to arrange an appointment to suit us, and were seen promptly. Alex reviewed our current will and noticed an error due to a handicap sibling and suggested a suitable update of setting up a trust to avoid the state just taking any of the inheritance funds. The process was quick and easy and Alex was a pleasure to deal with.

Updated will

Our wills were in dire need of an update and we chose to make use of the 'free will' scheme to support charity. The booking process was simple. At appointment, Zena took time to explain the legal intricacies and implications of our choices. We both felt that she was professional and empathetic to our needs. At signing, Zena ran through our wills to ensure they met our needs and tweaked the provision where necessary. During our interactions she was friendly and put us at ease.

Great Will Service

Just completed a joint will with my other half. Explanations were clear and concise. Gave us plenty of time to decide if what we were doing was correct for us.
Communication was brilliant and service fantastic. Would return back with any legal requirement from now on. Thanks Zena and team.

A wonderful friendly and informal approach that immediately relaxes clients, from receptionist to solicitor. Utterly professional as to subject matter, and yet all done in an easy and understandable explanation mode that takes the tension out of legal matters.
Sadly, no tea and buttered scones offered.😊
