My Case review

From the very start the communication was great, there was always an answer to any of my questions almost straight away.

The whole experience was made very stress free by Rachel and her team throughout. The advice we were given before and through the court hearing was excellent and very helpful and reassuring.

Many thanks to Rachel and her team.

Fantastic experience from Jane

My most recent experience with Jane was for drafting our will.
The will itself was complex due to number of assets and relatives involved, but Jane made everything super clear and straightforward and did not hesitate to spend extra time and numerous calls to ensure we were 100% confident with the final outcome.

Nothing is too much trouble for Jane which is what made the ultimate difference from other solicitors we had dealings with. 1000% recommend!

Excellent

I contacted Johnson Astills through Free Wills Month, and I am thoroughly impressed with their service. Supporting such a great initiative while offering fantastic value is admirable, but what truly stood out was their professionalism. Despite the service being free, they were committed to delivering excellent results.

Shivani and Kirsty were incredible throughout the process. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled smoothly. They were approachable, helpful, and made the entire experience stress-free.

I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of legal assistance. Their dedication and expertise make them a standout choice!

Mirror wills - a breeze!

Kirsty prepared wills for my husband and me, and the whole process was really easy. She explained everything, so that we understood the impenetrable legal language and what the implications were of each clause. Kirsty was very friendly and approachable, which was perfect for what could have been a very depressing exercise!

I am pleased with the services provided by Rachel Diorio and their team. From the very beginning, they demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to my case.

Their responsiveness and attention to detail were exceptional, and they always made sure to address any concerns I had promptly.
I would highly recommend Rachel Diorio to anyone seeking reliable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy legal representation.
