Will Making & Advice

I came in with expectations of what to put in my will, but after taking advice, I adjusted the wording, and added points that I had not realised were extremely relevant.
I was very pleased to take the advice as in certain circumstances people may have had some inheritance that I would not have been happy with.

Great Service

The selling of my late mother's property was dealt with efficiency.
I received regular communication and prompt responses to any queries I had.
I was kept informed of what was happening and what to expect.
I found the fees to be very reasonable.
Would highly recommend.

Rada Surshykiw's will

Due to the beneficiaries being in the Ukraine and elsewhere distributing the funds was not straightforward and very time consuming. I would therefore sincerely thank Phillipa Howett
for her expertise , advice and guidance.

Probate/IHT procedure

Latham and Co was recommended to me by a friend who had instructed the firm in connection with probate for both his parents. I was extremely happy with how Phillipa handled what was ultimately a lengthy and very frustrating case. I could not have achieved the required result without her.

Very satisfied with service

I have used Chris at Latham & Co twice now. Once concerning my divorce, some time ago, and more recently regarding an employment agreement. In both cases, I was very pleased with the advice and legal work that Chris performed for me. He fully and clearly explained the legal position, carefully went through all the legal papers and acted in a professional and friendly fashion. I would undoubtedly go back to him if a need for legal services arose in the future.

I found all the staff very helpful, friendly and understanding in helping me bring my Will up to date.
I was worried about having to change my Will since my husband had passed away - but everyone was so kind and helpful - I couldn't have wished for better help - thank you so much

Dealt with my house purchase without any major issues. The only complaint I would have is that they send all correspondence by post, while I travel a lot for my work. This lead to me not being aware that I had received correspondence until a few days after it had come in the mail.
