Experienced, professional and experts. Thank you for a first class service, regards will writing and advice on potential issues with probate/IHTax. It is worthwhile paying a little bit more for such quality than doing things cheaply. Tamara also advised on little-known aspects of probate planning such as if a beneficiary is under 18 it is best to have 2-executors. Also if you marry, divorce or have a civil partnership it is advisable to review your will.

I was recommend Martin Cray by a McKenzie friend. After an initial conversation with Tamara, their specialist in family law, I felt it was the right course to proceed with them.
Going to court is never an easy process and Tamara went over and above to support me. She would reply to messages very quickly and gave me all the time needed when I needed to talk through matters and in preparation for the case. I felt very prioritised and appreciated the hand holding.
Tamara is smart, kind, professional, friendly, talks at twice the speed of a normal human being (rather a bonus when on the clock) and is wise beyond her years. I am grateful for the service I received.

I contacted Martin Cray & Co for assistance with probate and inheritance tax, as I am handling the estate of my late uncle, who died intestate. I had no prior knowledge of the firm, and picked them based on their proximity and after reading positive reviews.
I was assigned to meet with Tamara Abrahams. I initially asked for a one-hour consultation, and then later returned for a second hour. There was also some email correspondence.
It was a great pleasure working with Tamara. I found her knowledgeable, friendly, approachable, and adept at explaining all the issues at hand concisely and clearly. In our subsequent email correspondence she was exceedingly prompt in her replies. Throughout the process I found all the information she gave to be useful, pertinent and reassuring.
I have no hesitation in recommending Tamara and her firm to anyone else seeking advice, and will certainly return if and when I require any further assistance.

As a boutique litigation firm we have the time and availability to deal directly without our clients at any time. We choose to have a smaller client base so that we can give a more personal service to our clients. We regularly receive instructions regarding private criminal defence; civil litigation; family law; regulatory matters and probate – contested or not. We are able to solve issues that you or your business are facing. We can be that safety net for you in times of need. We have the capability and reach to handle your case whether that’s in the local Magistrates Court, Crown Court, High Court or all the way up to the Supreme Court. That could be in Brighton, London, Paris, Barcelona, Singapore or Bangkok. Martin Cray has personally conducted advocacy in the Court of Appeal and before the Privy Council. We have clients who are in need of a solicitor for the first time in their life and also clients who come back to us year after year to handle their affairs.
