As everyone does I lost a parent but it was a sudden and unexpected death. My mother had done a will and I used Miss Danielle Hardy at the Spilsby branch of Sills & Betteridge.
I went to see her after only a few days of my mums passing not knowing what to do or how to do it, from the start she made me feel very welcome and put me at ease. She did not just go through what was going to happen whilst she dealt with probate and my mums estate, she made sure I understood all the steps and kept me informed every step of the way.

Every time things needed doing she got them done straight away and kept the process going at all times.
Danielle is a very pleasant and easy person to work with and I genuinely had full trust in her to get the job done.

I honestly could not recommend Danielle highly enough. If you want a solicitor who gets the job done on time, in the right way then she is the lady for the job. From my family we all thank her for the great work she did for us. 👏🏻👏🏻
