Joint Wills

We are both in our 70's and our original Wills were way out of date.
Another Solicitor (not in private practice) recommended them. We made an appointment and the Solicitor who saw us (on time) was very friendly and easy to talk to. She made the process so very easy for us with an obvious proforma on her computer. We were asked basic questions about our estate (such as it is!) and given good advice to make the process easier for our daughters after our demise. Questions were responded to promptly and professionally.
Would recommend to anyone requiring this service.

Professional and friendly

Making a Will is very emotional, so to meet the staff from Reception to Solicitor, to staff witness, we felt at ease. We explained our wishes and the Will was drawn up precisely to our wishes.
Very happy and as it was a free service, it was even better. Donated to their charity of cancer.

Not a good experience, felt like I was constantly chasing them.
Ignoring important emails that only they could action.
Added stress that I didn’t need.
